I think this kit will be remarkably stable on the ground, though its centre of mass might make aerial poses more difficult. The level of detail inherent in the model is astounding: I would tend to think that some of the HGUC kits rival MG kits in detail now...

Byarlant Custom is looking like a great kit, love the design of it too. Sometimes having a sinister ugly design just works, if you know what I mean. Glad to see it's going to be yet another really well done High Grade, High Grades have sure come a long way since that Infinte Justice kit I started with a few years back.

Also, on a side note, my AGE-1 Normal arrived today. I'll keep an eye out for the Impulse's that were recommended a few pages back as well, and I might pick up the Duel as well at some point (actually, I will, since I plan on getting all four of the Stolen Gundams eventually).

My small advice, buy what you can build or you'll end up with a backlog of 50+ kits like me,, which take up alot of room.

I just bought a 1/144 HG Clanche, i just love AGE Mass Production suits... number 53 on the backloglist...somebody shoot me...

1/100 MG AGE-1 is on my to buy list as i really liked teh 1/144 HG version.

IMO, Clanche is one the best looking mass production suit in Age (even in the whole metaseries).

Didn't know that you can store the rifle...(from Hacchaka)

Agreed, the Clanche is one of my favourite MS from AGE.

Also, from the HG Clanche manual:

Can anyone read what the text says next to Seric and the lineart of the Clanche Custom? :heh: Are they hinting at its future release, or screwing us over and telling us to customise one for ourselves?

I'm sooo confident that we will get HG Clanch Custom as well :)

hoping for that and an genoace obright custom.

Maybe if we get more of these Genoace/Clanche/Adele releases in HG and they sell well, Bandai might move on to doing them in MG as well?

Honestly, out of the Clanche, Genoace and Genoace 2 i have to say i like the Genoace more because of the shoulder verniers, i think it looks great, with a proper shield and gun it would look even better.

Well, I hope that these Genoace stuff sells well enough for Bandai to make MG's..

It would be nice to have MG Genoace Custom, MG G-Exes, and MG G-Bouncer... Then MG Jackedge, MG G-Xiphos..

Given how few grunts we have from pretty much every other series non UC I tend to doubt AGE is going to get them.

I would grab a G Bouncer, but I just really doubt it ever happens.

Anyway, HLJ finally put up a pre order for Nu MG Ver Ka, so I grabbed it as I'm pretty much dying to get that kit.

I wonder if the Clanche Custom will indeed be released: it is sufficiently unique from the standard Clanche, especially with its wing design, to make it worthwhile.

Yeah, Bandai isn't going to do AU Grunts anytime soon sadly. It's a shame, really. A G-Bouncer would be pretty sweet, though :)

I pre-ordered my MG Nu Ver.ka last week already, can't wait for december :D

December shall be amazing.

Now I just personally need to wait for the EW announcements to start coming out, sadly though after a Nu Ver Ka even with my love they won't be as hype.

It just needs a new head then knee,wing and rifle addons; not even enough for new plate (considering the optional gates placement on its runner previews).

You're right - hopefully the Clanche sells well, and we see the Custom in the near future. :)

I've noticed that it's got the square cannons on the wings rather than the prongs I've seen in other places. I'm not sure which design is the original, but I find the prongs cooler than the square cannons :p That said, the Clanche custom is pretty awesome, and my decision won't be affected by this alone.

Really, they should release a MG Reborns Gundam

Hell yeah!! I hope next year is Reborns year!

You mean like they released Ahead and GN-XIV MGs? :(
