Or even better yet....if they want to spam more CE models, howabout they reprint MG Freedom? One of the few models they got right of CE era besides PG Strike and its always out of stock or overly inflated expensive.
On a off note, can anyone tell me hows the quality on the 1/100 Gold Frame Amatu? Is it anywhere near as good as the 1/100 Blue Frame Second L? Blue Frame was one of the few 1/100 HG's that have impressed me as of late in terms of posability, sturdiness and detail.

I would have to agree, a MG Hi-Nu would be a great kit to have, even though I have the Core-works conversion in my backlog (Nice kit but the helmet seems smashed in). Though, the comment about the release of the CE kits, there have been 22 UC MG kits that have been released since 2004 compare to the 4 CE kits that have been released according to Penetrate

Also, depending on where you get you models from, the PG Strike is adequetly priced seeing that it is a newer model, that is priced less than the PG MKII at HLJ. And besides, the HGUC in my opinion, is booming with kits.
As far as the 1/100 Gold Frame Amatu, it was built off the red frame, not sure if that helps. Here is some pics of it from http://www.dalong.net/. To me, there is too much black and gold to see all the things the kit has going on for it. I think if the kit was in another color you could appreciate the outlines of all the weaponry it has, though my fave out the Astray line is still 1/100 Blue Frame Second L. :)
P.S.- I'm glad I held out for the MG Crossbone ( It looks like a great kit), I just wish it came with the Shot Lancer or the Peacock smasher.
