OOOOOH!!!! why is strike noir on the back of the box!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Noir pack derives frm IWSP

Long version: Supposedly that Strike IWSP was Sven's, and was used in tests to develop the Strike Noir. Afterwards, that Strike was upgraded into Strike Noir, and the data from the IWSP was used in creating the Noir Striker.

What!? Sven is the pilot? I don't know that!!! And does this Strike has somehow...darker colour?

sad the both Grand Slam and 2 katanas are not chrome......

maybe this explain it?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strike_Gundam

Between the First and Second Wars, the Earth Alliance obtains a IWSP and upgrades it, mounting it a what appeared to be a second GAT-X105 Strike unit. This IWSP (or possibly the same one for the Strike Rouge) is later mounted on Waid Rabby Nadaga's Slaughter Dagger.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Striker_Pack

AQM/E-X09S Noir Striker: Designed for the GAT-X105E Strike Noir. The Noir Striker is conceptually similar to the IWSP in that it combines the primary capabilities of the Aile, Sword and Launcher strikers. It is a flight pack mounting two anti-ship beam swords, two railguns, and a rocket anchor.

Orb Union (CE 71)
P202-QX IWSP Integrated Weapons Striker Pack: The IWSP was a PMP (Propulsion and Machinery Progess) design to combine the primary characteristics of the Aile, Sword and Launcher Striker Packs into a single unit. As such it was very heavy, very powerful and very, very expensive. It included two 9.1m anti-ship swords, similar to (and possibly inspired by) the "Gerbera Straight" katana used by the MBF-P02 Astray Red Frame, two 115mm rail guns, two 105mm cannons, one Midas Messer beam boomerang and a shield mounting a 30mm six-barrel Gatling cannon. It was never used because Cagalli Yula Athha was unable to master the complicated weapon controls in the short time between its completion and the war's end. After the war, the still incomplete IWSP was installed on the Strike Rouge for show - however, this led to some confusion and even resulted in some believing that the IWSP was actually used at Jachin Due. In CE 72, a second IWSP was built as a collaboration between PMP and Actaeon Industries, which was handed over to Phantom Pain and designated AQM/E-M1. This version included minor alterations, but the armament was unchanged. This second IWSP was installed on a GAT-01A2R Slaughter Dagger in CE 73 for use by an joint Phantom Pain/Orb force intended to hunt down the Martian crew of the Acidalium.

About that black stand, is that really the one that's going to be included in the Strike Freedom Special Option version? Because from what I can tell, Bandai is going to sell it separately starting in November for about 500 yen.

that would be great that way I can order the stand for Destiny 1/100 etc :)

its 4,7 k Yen, so...its ...an...MG Akatsuki O.O O.O O.O?

Yeah I also plan to pickup several of these.. they're pretty nice, and reasonably priced.

No, that's the Cosmic Region Akatsuki. Which is basically a prebuilt action figure in 1/144 scale.

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooo...
:( :( :(
@Dark Warrior:Thanks for letting me know.
@Bandai: Thanks for letting me down...

And the HG Akatsuki is already 4200 yen due to the chrome plating. A MG or even 1/100 Akatsuki would cost more than other ones as well.

Heh, I'm such a fanboy [ or should I say gunboy? Or...Maybe Keroro Gunsou, lawl ]

I have
HGUC 1/144 RX-78-2 Gundam [ Already have one, but it took a suicide dive and broke its legs and lost several small parts ]

MG 1/100 RX-79[G] Ground Combat Gundam [ Already have one, Slowly trying to fill out the ranks and make a 08th MS Team group ]

MG 1/100 RX-78 GP02A " Physalis " Gundam

MG 1/100 RX-78-2 Ver.Ka Gundam


All on their way to me as I speak. My wallet wants to kick my ass for teh abuse shes been through lately >_>

I was thinking, the way the SP Option is packaged, do you think we'll end up getting two stands? (seeing as though the normal MG already comes with a stand, we're meant to get another custom one with the SP options?)

So basically, Strike Noir started out as an original EA-spec/Orb-spec Strike Gundam?

*salutes Bandai's brilliant plan to milk an extra 2200 yen from fanboys*

a better picture....
