I think my choices is coming down to either the Freedom or the Strike for now, the reason I posed the MG question to u guys is I was thinking of getting one for Christmas

As for the Strike I am also considering the Aile despite my comment about the IWSP, its slightly cheaper, and I forgot its base is a launch pad I could use with other kits (btw would the pads feet areas accomodate most mg feet?) And how are the connector parts for each stand? Do they have exclusive connectors for the kits the come with only? Or can they be used on other mgs?

Wow, I just noticed in Janurary they are coming out with the Age-FX Burst. So many clear blue pieces. :D Will look great beside the normal Age-Fx wich already looks beautiful.

Bit late to the party lol, did you know they're also making the AGE-1 Gransa?

Im still debating between the FX normal ver and the FX Burst.....the clear blue is so appealing but the price...is somewhat derailing for me.....I like the FX for the MS design, not the bits and the FX Burst mode

I hate to sound like Nike, but I'm waiting for the AGE-FX MG :p.

If the MG didn't come with the funnels/bits effect part, then I'll snatch the HG right away.

Also, after reading & watching reviews here and there, it seems that there are more problems with AGE-2 Normal MG compared to the HG. Many found the HG to be more enjoyable for posing (especially when it comes to posing with the DODS rifle).

It's the final suit of the show, I'm pretty sure it will get a MG release^^

Bandai won't release Age-FX Burst as a regular release if it ain't popular.. Then surely, we'll see its MG.

I'm still hoping for MG DB and Orbital.

^Not a fan of AGE-2 Double Bullet but I bet that’ll be a better MG than AGE-2 Normal since DB’s guns aren’t heavier than Normal’s DODS rifle to hold.

Sounds like everyone is sounding like me lately. =P
If we do get a MG ver. of the FX Burst, it'd be an online exclusive. The same for Age-2 Normal Special Force ver.
We're getting Darkhound so that's a pretty good sign we'll also at least get the Double Bullet. I'm a bit concerned though for a MG release of the Age-3 line (Normal, Orbital, Fortress). But maybe we'll see those in 2013 scattered about.

If you're in Southern California this coming weekend, and you are a fan of gunpla this is happening: http://thosegundamguys.org/2012/10/2...gmc-part-deux/

Meh~ $5 per entry and $1 for additional entry? If I lived in S. California (or do i? :p), I probably wouldn't... =D

Wow, the Nu is looking downright sexy right now.

Dynamic tag cannot be rendered. (PrintableThread)
Those proportions are just....perfect. Completely sold on this kit now, the question is "when", not "if".

Yep, any fan of gunpla can't pass up up sexy piece of plastic!:p

Just got back from my hol in HK but heading back over in Jan again so def be picking it up then.

EDIT: Ah right forgot to add but I was skimming some mags on gunpla and I saw something on next RG might be a GM, anyone seen anything on this?

Don't think anything has been announced yet... That's interesting, but it would break the whole UC/SEED trend. A RG GM is totally plausible though, since we already have the RX-78-2. I guess the designers at Bandai got lazy and figured they needed a break after the engineering hell that is the RG Zeta. :heh:

Or maybe they're just planning to push out MG's that they've been withholding on? :rolleyes:

MG V2, X, DX, Justice, Saviour and Reborns!

Anyway, I agree with GM. I'm interested on how are they going to RGify it. And if they do, imagine the next releases are going to be just GM variants, LOL!

I'm really sticking my bet with RG Providence as next.

Maybe Bandai will throw a curve ball and do Real Grade Exia?
Oh and let's hope that a Gundam Seed Destiny HD Remaster (TV) airs. That'll increase the odds of:

MG Strike 2.0
RG Strike Freedom

And I am sure your presence will be sorely missed. :D

Yeah, everyone knows you, just like they know bin Laden and Gaddafi.

Anyway, early reviews of RG Zeta are popping up! Looks good so far. Hopefully the inner frame isn't too fragile.

He is the Bin Laden of Gunpla Community? Or I'll find someone else more fitting :)

I'm still waiting for an RG Zeta video review. I still refuse to believe that the inner frame can withstand continues transformation at that scale.

Anyone know solutions/basic mods to old 1/144 scale kits from the Wing era? I noticed some of the joints are really loose and articulation needs improvement, for me the most important thing is fixing the looseness of the polycap joints

Planning on getting two kits (guess) from then for the hell of it and due to me loving their designs (I also dont see any chances of them getting a HG/MG treatment)

No RG can withstand being posed continually either.

@bio9205 - The build itself seems great.

Concerning.. When I get my RG kits (still don't have them yet), I will keep that in mind, even though the UC kits included in the prize pack I'm selling on eBaym and 1 (so far), I'm selling to my friend. :eyespin:

I just read on Guydam guy that Sedd destiny is goind to be Remastered. Very good for me as I love seed destiny.

Now to go Nike or whatever he call's himself these days for a few minutes, this gives us model and action figure oportunity :)

I would like to see the following:

* 1/100 MG Gaia gundam
* 1/100 MG Legend gundam
* 1/100 MG saviour gundam

* 1/100 HG Slash Zaku Phantom ( Yzak Version)
* 1/100 HG Blaze zaku Phantom (dearka version)

* 1/144 HG Windam


I kept my list sort, but these are must have's for me and are i think quite realistic.

Robot Damashii will probably release the 5 main gundam.

Oh god a SD remaster, who did not see that coming? =__=
The only good thing from that series was the mobile suit designs and the more mature looking characters (besides the given good gundam osts)

The only MG's I think we will see are:

Chaos, Gaia, Abyss
Saviour
Blast Impulse (hopefully, it will be really easy to do if Bandai puts in the effort)
Akatsuki
Legend (it was on that MG poll a year or two back)

On the RG side - Impulse, Destiny, SF and IJ, hopefully? :D I really really want a RG IJ.

Don't give Bandai some slack. It's okay for us to demand:
MG Blaze Zaku Phantom (Rey)!
MG Slash Zaku Phantom (Yzak)!!
MG Gouf Ignited (Heine)!!!

:D

That's too many Seed MG's..

I think realistically, we're gonna get most of the HG kits "remastered" and get RG releases of:

Aegis
Blast Impulse
Destiny
Force Impulse
Infinite Justice
Strike Freedom
Sword Impulse

Then we might see a MG Strike 2.0.

Aside from that, 00 MG's?? =P

will they come out.....HG1/144 Destroy???

what i forsee for HD Destiny remaster

RG
Force Impulse
Saviour(?)
Strike Freedom
Infinite Justice
Destiny
Legend{?)

HG 1/144
Slash Zaku (Yzak)
Blast Impulse

MG
Blast Impulse
Saviour
Chaos(?)
Gaia [2 variants colour](?)
Abyss(?)

im asking too much lol

just completed MG Buster ....

http://i120.photobucket.com/albums/o...E9BD5E6856.jpg

that buster looks awesome. i cant wait to get mine.

I'll be happy with an MG Saviour cause you know why.

If there will be real grades, I think Providence still deserves the next spot. Followed by Strike Freedom, IJ and maybe Impulses.

Looks like the RG line will still follow the UC/SEED alternating trend, then. And I agree with maknaedik, Providence seems the most likely candidate for the next RG.

^ Which is good since Providence is scientifically proven to be ridiculous ammounts of sexy.

Thinking about HG, RG and MG Seed Models. I hope in 2013 Bandai releases all of these in HGUC 1/144 Unicorn Version colors. :D

Earth Federation Forces
Guncannon Detector
Aqua GM
GM II Semi Striker
Guntank II

Zeon Remnants

As far as model kits go the Destiny HD remaster stuff is really great news^^ Pretty much the only thing I still love about SEED and Destiny is the mecha designs. And there are quite a few kits that I want from Destiny! We still have to get a grunt unit from SEED or Destiny in MG form for example and I would absolutely love to have a MG GuAIZ! That thing might just be my favorite grunt unit of all time in terms of the design!

Also, christmas is coming early for me this year. I probably won't buy any kits for a while (taking a break, I'm just not feeling it right now) but I should be able to provide some really lovely Gunpla photos next week ;D

Heck, I don't think we even have a HG GuAIZ yet, right?

Hey guys, got a question for you:
I'm looking for a decent file set (you know , small, metal, for cleaning out the final nubs on parts). Do you think I can get those at a hardware store, or do I have to visit a shop that sells beauty products (not looking forward to that)? I want to make the most out of my latest purchases, and proper nub-removal is one of my bulletpoints...

Also, slightly off-topic: So I've got a girlfriend for about three months now, and not only does she fully accept (and even like) my gunpla hobby, she also wants to give it a try herself (MG Zaku II 2.0 has her interest), but we also wound up watching episodes 1-13 of gundam 00 in one evening. Does this mean I've pretty much won at life, or do you disagree?

One rare want for 1/144 scale fan like me...a MG Lunamaria's Zaku.

It depends on the store. But yeah, you can find it in a good hardware store.

You’re a damn lucky guy :). Most GFs always dislike their BFs having this kinda hobby. I suggest HG Pink Beargguy, HG Zaku Warrior Live Concert, or HG Nobel Gundam for your girlfriend :D.

HG Farsia. It has gunpla and not just one flower, but 5. LOL!

Don't just get those kits under the assumptions all girls would like them, if shes that type then sure why not, but if not, get her something badass.......like MG Sword Impulse or something

Oh and who here watches Vegeta6259? His current 1/100 scratchbuild is really making me hope that Bandai will use the new Leo frame to give us a MG Mercurius and Vayeate pair
