Im would say a HG is the best bet for it, seeing the Astray HG releases so far (Im talking about the Out Frame being made first, then if popular enough, the then the two Testament units) |
Its beautiful. The HGUC I have been waiting 6 months for. :p
HGUC 1/144 Zogok (Unicorn Ver.) Dynamic tag cannot be rendered. (PrintableThread) |

I'll get testament and that's been decided the moment I saw it. I also like Rosso Aegis, however, I don't think it will be available in MG or even RD. |
Now that Rrobbert has finished his review of the old MG Aile Strike I am super curious about the MG Aile Strike RM. Mainly because of the difference in price, which is just 400 yen, so like 4 bucks or so. Which is almost completely irrelevant. So this is literally a true comparison between old Bandai kits and new Bandai kits. Same price, same Gundam, 10 years between them.

Changes I can tell that the RM ver. has:
- sides of the head now has gray plastic - more frame parts showing through in various places (Aile pack, skirt armor) - color is more darker I think - has a Mu La Flaga figure included - shoulder has a new part - articulation definitely looks vastly improved - finger swapping - face mask has more details - gray piece visible on cockpit hatch - gray piece visiable on crotch area - knee and shin has a slit of gray showing through - wrist area has a slit of gray showing through Basically, it's more detailed with gray pieces showing throughout the build. The RM Ver. is way more stylized and more of a Master Grade, whereas the older one felt more like a 1/100 No Grade with some inner frame. I'm sure that Bandai is going to re-release this guy in the Strike Rouge color variant as an online exclusive soon. It'll be the exact same thing with Cagalli figures instead. |

I would also like to note that the old MG Strike IS BY NO WAY A NG LVL KIT, take the actual 1/100 NG for that comparison, the old MG Strike is still a great kit |

Wonder if Suiton696 has ever built a 1/100 HG and MG strike? The MG Strike 1.0 was the first modern MG kit with complete inner frame and super posable joints, while the 1/100 HG, being a very solid kit has limited articulation and no inner frame. The 2 are very different, like day and night. Now if he had compared the Strike 1.0 to say a way more modern 1/100 HG/NG Astraea gundam then he might be right , but he didn't. i've ordered the new strike 2.0, I will see for myself how it holds up to the "older" 1.0 and if all the fuss is really worth it... |
And all the commotion above was caused by suiton who doesn't know what he's talking about, ladies and gentlemen.
|
I have the old strike and it is a very good kit, the only real issue is the ankle armor attachment.
Other then that it is perfectly good to this day and if we didn't have the (probably amazing) RM version it would hold up no problem. |
Is that testament RD an exclusive?

For RD Testament is a regular release
As for the 1st MG Strike kit , my only complaint is the weak ankle guard joints else the kit is fine |
Wow, the RG Destiny looks better than my MG Destiny (the one with the WoL effects)

I wonder, is it possible to easily mod the HGs WoL to fit the RG's?
And NO Suiton, Destiny does NOT need a RM kit, it's hands down one of the best MG out there ATM and about everything is spot on besides the lack of WoL, and if you are going to shell out all that cash for a exclusive online WoL then you might as well go for the FBM, which comes with additional effect parts and silver plated inner frame parts (and a kickass box) |

Personally, I'm not a fan of WoL but, you can easily make some. Just buy a clear piece of plastic. You can get them, just like styrene sheets. Trace a pattern, spray with some clear paint, Clear coat. I've actually considered doing this for my HG hi nu. Again, not really a fan of it so... lol

If anyone's interested: RD Full Armor Unicorn is now in stock at HLJ. Got my payment request just now

By your logic the next in line for a RM would be the Freedom or Strike Rouge, since theyre older kits, those have more chances for a RM than Destiny do |
I've been a fan of RM series ever since its pilot episode. It holds the first spot in TV ratings for its time slot. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Running_Man_(TV_series)
It's just sad that the MG Destiny Heine Custom doesn't come with WoL effect part :( |

I buy RD for suits i find interesting but not interesting enough to warrent building then in HG/RG/MG/PG. With extreme limited time RD is a (rather expensive) alternative to fill my shelves ;) I allready have the older 1.0 unicorn gundam, which wasn't bad, just bought this guy for the option parts |

Spoiler:
So apparently the upcoming Metal Build Exia Repair I has conversion parts to make it the Repair II variant. >_> Damn it. We need that freakin' MG Exia R2 with R3 conversion parts. Come on Bandai!!! |
I must be one of a kind idiot to actually seek an RX-78-2 MG at this point... It's hard to find one anywhere! Or I'm just not looking at the right places.
Worse comes to worst, I'll just wait for the 3.0 Another question, is there an RD exclusive of a green psycoframe Unicorn Desmod? |
Quote:
http://lmgtfy.com/?q=RX-78-2+MG Click that link and you'll be able to find listings for MG RX-78-2. |
That's a rant of me not being able to physically find one in shops, dude. I don't really have the privilege of internet-purchasing, ya' know?

You have both as the normal, allready released!!!!!, metal build Exia comes with conversion parts for making Exia Repair 3... So buy 2 of each and you can have all 4 forms displayed! and that for only 600$, bargain if you ask me ;) |
Quote:
I usually pre-order the reprint then build something else in between until it's released. Or you can go for 3.0, unfortunately it's allready sold out in alot of shops, but as it is a new model it's always reprinted the month after release. There are alot of exclusive RD's, in fact to much of them. There is an exclusive glowing version RD unicorn gundam, it shines red, but if i recall correctly there is a green glowing one too, released in december. Expensive thing. found it at a online shop: http://www.toyarena.com/images/4543112814197.JPG |
Be grateful that bandai release the all forms of Exia in metal build but can use the MG to complement.
