They had the otion to make the really perfect strike gundam by inserting all backpacks with strike 2.0. It would not matter to fans if it costs 1000 yen more. there are plenty of way more expensive MG kits. You do not always have the option to buy a limited eclusive item so that theory is full of holes. |

If they lower the price, there will be more people who'll be interested in getting the kit. And of course, it'll be later on tempting to get the packs. And that is a business strategy (we'll both agree that it sucks) Quote:

That is not the reason. The reason is simple: no matter what option is, they are asking you to fork out more for their products
since we are in the MG Strike issue...let us compare the prices MG Aile Strike ver RM 4,200 yen MG Sword/Launcher Striker ver RM 2300 yen MG Strike Sword/Launcher 4,250 yen MG Aile Strike 3,230 yen have checked that the mould for the P-online Sword/Launcher parts is exactly the same as previous, just darker tone plus decal no matter what if you wants to put as a single sword strike/launcher strike/perfect strike by buying the previoius sword/launcher MG kit, you still have to fork out more $$$ that marketing & their trend now for the releases |
Now, if after this Bandai don’t release MG Strike Rouge RM as an online exclusive, they’ll miss a golden opportunity for getting even more easy money. But, looking at their releases of RG Strike Rouge, RG Deactive Modes, MG AGE-1 Unit 2 and MG AGE-2 SF, there’s no way they’ll pass this chance.

I would say Single MG Strike RM / Deactive mode Strike RM would be a P online release is a high possibility since they have done that to the RG Strike |

It's good for people who wants just the MG Aile Strike RM and bad for those who want everything. Specially for us who don't live in Japan. Quote:
Well yes, I think MG Strike Rouge RM will be an exclusive release as well. But I don't want that to happen of course, NOT!!! Quote:

Initially i had the same thinking as you but as time goes by (FYI I've been monitoring Bandai kit releases since 2004) & it can actually worned you out literally. As for your 3rd reasoning, you don't get what i mean. What I'm saying is even if Bandai coming out regular Release for MG Sword/Launcher Strike RM , price would be roughly around the same as previous kit & defeat the purpose of launching as a "new" release, making the previous MG Launcher/Sword Strike obsolete They are doing this to milk out more from the fans (for the 2nd time i'm repeating it again) |

RG Wings of light (I dunno why they labeled it wing of light where definitely you'll get a pair) having a stand (is good because it doesn't have by default) is another. And now this, MG Launcher/Sword. Another part of Bandai's milking campaign. Yes, you heard that official name from me, LOL! These are the changes that Bandai is undergoing. It's milking and they got nothing to lose because in the end, they know people will still get it nevertheless. I for one don't like the release of 3.0. I have rants about it and yes, it's part of the changes and let's say I can't do nothing but accept it. Unless we do a massive boycott, which I doubt will be a success. The option thingy that I've been mentioning is a strategy that Bandai is implementing to they'll not lose anything. For a clear explanation (and I hope it will be) I'll point each scenarios: 1st-Bandai releases MG Perfect Strike RM (5200 yen)
2nd-Bandai release MG Aile Strike HD and MG Launcher/Sword Pack HD
It's been done with MG Sinanju ver Ka then OVA. Also with MG Victory Gundam then MG V-Dash Gundam. Bandai is so expert on milking that they decided to milk on people instead of cows. |
Buy what you want. Don't buy what you don't. Simple.

Yeah thats an old review, his method and voice are different from the usual and he makes no mention of MGs from the last few years. . Something to wet the appetite of his subscribers.

So about that online exclusive Launcher/Sword Striker pack..
I've heard the mold is the exact same as the old MG kit, but they include some decals and they darkened the shade of the plastic color. Is that true? I was expecting Bandai to remold the parts considering they're selling it as an online exclusive. Oh and you think we'll see a MG Aile Strike Rouge RM Ver. any time soon? I mean it'd just be a color swap of the MG Aile Strike RM Ver. |
Quote:
The fact that they are online exclusive also implies they are remolds. Bandai have never and will never sell an item on the premium online store that consists of 100% newly molded parts. They only ever go as far as a new weapon as long as it is released with a recoloured kit (crossbone X2, Green Marasai) or a slight mold change like Tallgeese 2's head. |
So the online exclusive Striker Packs are new molds? O_o
People have been telling me Bandai is just reusing the molds. |

I cant see how anyone cant understand.....
The next line I state that Bandai has never EVER released a 100% newly molded kit as an exclusive. Even the RG wings of light box wont contain 100% new parts, there is an action base 2 with it. There always has to be something old packaged with an online exclusive. |
Exactly.
1. The mold of the older Launcher/Sword packs fit but Bandai never confirmed if it was a totally new mold or just a recoloring and inclusion of some new decals. 2. You said "implies" which doesn't indicate concrete information. 3. Regardless of it being online exclusive, or not, Bandai has before reused a mold. The MG Tallgeese EW and the MG Tallgeese II (online exclusive) is a good example. But then again, the mold is pretty damn new. What I suggest most people here to do, is to try to be less confusing and make your point. When you said, "implies they are remolds" it just adds to the confusion since you apparently was trying to say they were actually new molds, whereas in your original comment you said that it implies. Quote:
It doesn't work that way buddy. |
Quote:
The action base 2 was an example that no online exclusive release has gone without using old parts from something, regardless if they are a full kit or peripherals. I will reiterate my previous statement. There is no online exclusive release that consists of 100% new parts. |
Remold
- reusing old parts OR - redoing the parts Which do you mean? |
Quote:
Colour variation kits are called remolds by most people as they are the exact same parts but bandai just use different colour plastic. The striker pack set for the MG Strike Remaster is a remold, same old parts just with a slightly different colour plastic. The Strike RM was designed to work with all old MG Strike weapon packs, such as the Noir pack, IWSP and obvious launcher/sword packs. |

I think bandai's approach to the sword/launcher is fantastic, it means people like me can just buy the old set and still get a perfect strike without breaking our bank accounts.

One of my favorite Gundams from SEED universe finally appears!
Dynamic tag cannot be rendered. (PrintableThread) But the V-fin is ridiculously too long compared to the original design :(. Anyway, I think maknaedik won't miss this one :D. _______ Quote:

Not likely IMO.
I think MG Aile Strike Rouge RM is more likely. |
Man I had to lol so hard at the old strike review. I thought robbert had the RM. I was like "Why does this look like a HG from 2002" Durrp lol.
