i hope they do make GNZ leg boosters, theres a 70% chance i'll get them if its released. though its going to be atleast taller than the actual suit's height without the boosters. theres another line i wouldnt mind bandai releasing but i doubt they'll do it. it would be cool to scale down the ptolemy or ptolemaus into a model though it will probably wound the wallet badly. have any actual spaceships from the gundam series ever been released? i think i might have heard of |
i think MG O Gundam is a possiblity, since bandai just have to re-used the RX-78 frame to it, wether the OYW or the 2.0 version

*facepalm*
Yes, I just did that. I think Bandai has proven in the past that they don't reuse frames between different series designs - people back then expected Bandai to reuse the HGUC RX-78 as a base for the HG O Gundam, and yet when it came out the HG O Gundam uses a completely different mold that shares NONE of the parts of the HGUC RX-78. Bandai is known for recycling yes, but people are really exxagerating that aspect of Bandai when it comes to things like this. Besides, despite the similarities the O Gundam is such a markedly different Gundam from the RX-78 proportion wise and gimmick wise that it isn't even possible to recycle the RX-78 frame for the task lest you extensively remake it - at which point it's cheaper to just create a whole new frame, which is what I expect they'll do. |
I have to agree with LoweGear here.
Thinking again, if they reused the RX-78's MG frame, while is is possible to accomodate the big ass GN Condenser, but how is it going to hold the GN Drive? Looking at Exia's frame, I think Bandai's going to need a new frame for the O Gundam... If they release it. And if they do, I bet O Gundam's frame will be an integration of the RX-78 and Exia's. |
that's what i thinking StratoSpear, Exia Frame for the torso, and RX-78 frame for the arms and legs

hey guys quick question, for the guys who give their kits a 'topcoat', do u guys first apply the initial paint then apply the topcoat or do u just spray the topcoat (matt in this case) directly onto the kit? after visiting some gundam model sites, many modellers just spray the matt topcoat directly onto the kits without using any other paints at all? is there a difference between the two methods?

The upper calves of the O Gundam sports numerous vents on the back as well, which is part of the inner frame rather than outer armor.
As for topcoat, there's no difference between the two methods as the reason behind topcoating is the same. Topcoat is used to provide a protective finish on top of the paint/raw plastic from air and dust. |
special prize for PG 00 Raiser clear armour seems to be the whole unit

If they do a MG 0 Gundam, I would bet that they would try to time some sort of R2 release to co-incide with it - either create a conversion kit for a pre-existing MG Exia, or go ahead and release the MG R2 as a separate kit.
Indeed, I wouldn't be surprised if they followed the pattern of the SD and HG boxes, in having the R2 and 0 Gundam posed in a swords-clashing stance on their respective box art images... ...also, what choice would you go for, regarding a second Anno Domini suit for PG status? For me, I'd hope they'd go for the Reborns Gundam, to provide a good adversary to the 00-Raiser - but then, it's not like I could afford either for the foreseeable, anyway. |
I'd just be happy if they made a MG reborns gundam.

on a completely different note, in regards to the PG 00 raiser, apparently i heard that some hobby shops are bundling the clear parts with the kit (so that ppl wont need to get them from Bandai directly), anyone know of any online store that does this? |

There's also Mr Super Clear Flat http://www.hlj.com/product/GNZB-514 but I have never tried it before. The former's water based while the latter is laquer-based but I might be wrong about that. Quote:
