It's not so much a small version, more a small-yet-one-I-could-afford take.

(A local store has an action figure for it, which also comes with the required armour pads for the Musha, but it's still a bit pricey - I can only really stick with HG kits and the odd equivalently-priced figure for the time being.)

And if I ever felt like doing a conversion, it would be easier to chop and change HG kits should I try to fit a GN (or GN-Tau) drive to a SM - I would not want to ruin an action figure.

The thread...is it dead....?

vektar 2009-04-05 23:03

now that 00 is over theres nothing to talk about till the next gundam show comes out with more models

Amber.Dawn 2009-04-05 23:12

Good point.

People will keep buying models though, be it during the show run or after, including for models not from the current running show. I'm still looking forward to that Exia MG release... one day, one day =b

Not likely. There would be non-stop new Gundam models every month from now for another 2 years, even if there isn't any more TV shows. That's how long it takes for all the master grades to come out, plus a PG Exia if they feel they are up to it.

Kelrys 2009-04-06 01:45

Yea, they still release models from UC and the SEED line.

We can always talk about the much neglected SD Three Kingdoms line of kits which had kept Bandai busy pumping out kits every month for the past 2 years now.

And the crazy thing is this SD line does not have much promotion apart for a seralise monthly-released comics. So I must say, in a way, it's a bigger thing than OO.

The BB Sangokuden Comic does have it's share of childish antics (the target audience are elementary school kids afterall), but it does includes major events from the original Chinese Classic and yes, you have characters getting killed off.

Most notablely, Cao Cao Gundam was introduced as a Hero, but now he and his camp have since become villians. (It's expected when you have Sazabi, Jaged Doga, Virsago, Ashtaron and all sort of villanous mech in there)

All in all, it's very much alright as an entry level version of ROTK for kids since the SD MS are very much in character according to their Chinese historical counterparts, unlike say Ikkitousen or Koi Hime. Do read it if you have the chance.

Celestial Beast (Gundam) China Ver.
Spoiler for Show Time :D:

gundam rider 2009-04-06 09:44

i think i heard about an SD Gundam manga with a weird concept,

well, according to that random blog, the concept is about SD sentinent Mobile Suits who needs to preform "fusion" (dragonball style:heh:!?) with their human partners in order to transform into their Non-SD & full scale life-sized versions.....

seriously, an SD 10 year old kid-sized MS becomes a Non-SD 18m tall MS when "fused" with its human "host" !?:twitch: WTH!!?:heh:

reminds me of Ultraman for some reason....., well atleast it does mention the concept of "Bro-fist Fusion".....:heh:

hmmm..., talk about silly fanfictions......

Got my Garazzo assembled:

Spoiler for With the beam claws on:




It's not a bad kit, and looks well alongside the Gadessa...


...but to be honest, part of me wishes I had waited to see if they would have released a Hilling variant - I like the colour scheme of her Garazzo a lot more than this one's.

you can always attempt to paint it that color not to hard to do.

and if not to much truble could post a pic of the figma stand alone ive never owned one or seen one without a toy or model on it before, just a bit curios to see how the models attach to it.

@timesyndicate
thanks for the pics of Celestial Beast(Gundam)

Now I think about it, maybe the gundams from CB take the reference of Celestial Beast?? :heh: Arios/Kyrios is the phoenix...Cherudim/Dynames is the green dragon XD

I don't have much set up in terms of paints, and I'd rather see one pre-coloured.

But if they don't release one, it's no big loss, I guess.

Virtue/Seravee can be the turtle/tortoise.
