Bummer, that Heavyarms Ka conversion looks sweet. :(

Maybe I'll search around a bit, but if the kits were originally going for $50-60US, I suspect any remaining NOS or recasts are going to be out of my price range. :rolleyes:

Thanks again! :)

IF MY MEMORY SERVES ME CORRECT, the Turn-A's moustache is on the mouth piece, not the side. so, in that case, the pics on dannychoo's site has two different Turn-A, one badass and one simple.(it is quite obvious.) so the mg will most likely b the thin,simple, nothing special one?

Hmm, they can make it special with a chrome finish :heh:

But yeah, maybe there will be so many extra's. Hmm maybe another RX-78 remake would've been better? :heh:

(maybe this Turn A will be 2,500 yen :heh: )

I believe the turn-A model shown in the initial photo reports is not the actual Master Grade model. I think one was the standard 1/100 model and the other is a modified kit done by a professional. The Lineart image is what the kit should look like. I think its good that its isnt another rx 78 variation, the master grade line needs something new. A bad habit bandai have is sticking to just one design & producing all the variations instead of moving on.

Where do you buy your Gundam kits?
 
I want to buy some SD Gundams to decorate my room a little. What's a good online site to buy them? Most of the sites I've visited charges a high amount on shipping.

thephreak 2007-05-20 18:16

hobbywave.com is pretty good for me. although it charges $10 for shippin, the items are pretty low price compared to other sites i know of. i think shipping stays the same no matter how many items you buy also. the site is reliable

Depends on where u live and how much of the shipping do you think it's cheap.
Usually, the cost shipping is about the price of the SD gundam itself. You should save more on shipping if you havemore than 1 item in a shipment.

Angloz sells SD gundams from HK (bit more expensive that HLJ but more availability), HLJ sells it from Japan but most stocks run out fast. Hobbywave is good for US and Canada.

My brother and I bought 8 SDs mainly from HLJ and Angloz.

With Turn A as MG 100, is it not too unreasonable to hope that MG 200 will be Devil Gundam?

I'll still hoping Bandai someday will release Colony Devil Gundam, be it resin kit or Gunpla. (( Is the latter even possible? ))

Yes, its quite obvious as to which one is the MG redesign. The original Turn A has the mustache stuck on its mouth, while the MG redesign has it at the side of the head and has a gundam like mouth. The redesign also looks beefier and has more lines and stuff on its armor. O yea, did i say the redesign looks freaking awesome? I think ill say it again, it looks freaking awesome:D

thephreak 2007-05-21 21:58

i dont know if i should post this in this thread, but since it does have to do with models (sorta) i'll just go ahead and ask. what is the story behind the making of the Hi-Nu? did it appear in one of the Gundam anime? or did the people at Bandai just decide to make a waaaaay cooler Nu, cuz there are not much gundam models( or gundams, for that matter) that look better. anyways, just wanted to know the "story" behind the Hi-Nu

edit: by the way, the folks at Mesarion just did a 1/60 of the Freedom in a purple and white colorway. check it out. i still like the 1/100 SF Zaft though. heres the link http://f7.aaa.livedoor.jp/~mesarion/gallery/fg3/fg3.htm

Devil Gundam will probably be number 666. :P

RX-93 HI-NU 2007-05-21 23:27

Hi-Nu is the completed version of Nu which appeared in the novel Beltorchika's Children.

WOW! That actually looks pretty cool. I always thought TURN A looked weird and "ungundam", but this custom looks gundamish ^^

ask urself whether u're willing to spend more than US120 for the kit and US50 for the shipping.

ask urself whether it's ur first kit. PG is not recommended for people who are exposed to gundam kits for the first time.

ask urself what features or which gundam attract you more. Do a homework, go to HLJ and chekc out the available PG kits. Search online for its pictures and review.

ciao

I think you didnt answerd my question. If I wanted to ask only myself I wouldnt post in this Forum. lol

dodgethis_sg 2007-05-22 09:19

Have you built any models in your life? Any scale model, car, plane or whatever? If the answer's no, don't waste your money on a Perfect Grade and buy a Master Grade of said MS.
