Providence is one of my favorite Gundams, and even though I don't buy kits, I'm still eager to see more of it. Can't wait to see the insane detail builders will give it.

Given the love for SEED and the lack of Evil side suits from AU series in the MG line I would imagine the people who would agree with you are far, far more in number then those who could be like me.

I just always hated Prov/Legend designs so it has little interest to me and the amount of SEED is bordering on to much for me just as Wing was before the break.

Personal taste between providence & legend: prefer legend overall balance , sleek design though prefer providence big beam rifle & the gauntlet shield/beam saber

but i think it will come out in 2013...

the 2012 will be a too "Seedius" year even the Providence.. :heh:

Akyra 2012-08-29 05:03

TBH, I prefer the Legend over Providence, but hey release both!

Wonder if they'll release the druggies too...I've always liked Calamity...

StrikeFreedomV2 2012-08-29 05:14

So, it's been awhile since I last ordered some kits. Today I ordered:

HG Gundam AGE-2 Double Bullet (My second one)
HG Gundam AGE-2 Dark Hound
HG Gundam AGE-3 Normal
HG Gundam AGE-3 Fortress
HG Gundam AGE-FX
HG Gundam Legilis
HG Ghirarga
and to top it of the MG Nu Gundam Ver.Ka :D

Can't wait for them to arrive/to be released^^

Obelisk ze Tormentor 2012-08-29 05:27

I would like for the trio Gundam to be MGed too. Hell, that was my wish for so long.

Still, I have this bad feeling that MG Providence will mark the end of MG SEED Remaster line coz Providence is the last Gundam that appear in the anime. :(

@StrikeFreedomV2
Hmm..HG Darkhound? You don't wanna wait for the MG?

firefox 2012-08-29 06:27

I would liek a providence, but it's not my favorite suit unless bandai can do some miracles with it's large backpack.

personally, if you wnana do another seed MG make it a grunt suit!!! Ginn, dagger 105, CGUE, GU-aiz...anything goes :)

Akyra 2012-08-29 06:30

Let's hope Bandai will milk the Seed line some more.

Dun believe I actually wanted Bandai to milk it some more...lol

I'm currently prefering HG's over MG's. I don't have that much space at the moment and I own so many HG AGE-kits already that I would like to keep them in scale :) I will get the MG eventually, though, maybe next year.

Oh damn~ LOL
Personally, I'm waiting for that list in MG (except for Nu Gundam since I don't like UC and Ghirarga since I don't care about it).

The thing with me, is that I try to get all the leads (and variations) in Master Grade first, and then the other few like key enemies, important characters, etc.. I get them in High Grade if I want it and if there is no 1/100 No Grade or 1/100 Master Grade.

Again, my preference..

MG --> 1/100 No Grade --> High Grade

I just hate how HG kits:

a. require so many stickers
b. no inner frames
c. missing details
d. require painting for many details
e. some stickers are annoying as hell to put on and either don't go on well or fall off too easily
f. loose parts. yea i know you can use some tamiya extra thin cement to stiffen them up, but still.. >_<

Just like to point out that everything you mention is really to be expected of the grade, couldn't honestly tell me you expect to compare them to MGs or even RGs do you?
Also some of these problems are there for any grade, fact I don't have to pay a fortune for a HG is a massive plus.

Relative really.

How so?

I don't buy many kits at all. So that "cost" of being into GunPla isn't a big deal. When you buy like 12 HG's I'll get like maybe 1 or 2 MG's. =P

Plus, I stick with Age and 00.

Cause it's one of the biggest factors for alot of people, cause it's affordable.
Just pointing that out.
Also those that would get 12 or so HG would def be getting their moneys worth over those getting a couple of MGs.
Also another very important thing I left out before but in no way is any kit that Bandai or any other model kit company release just that good, they all require work to make them better, that's actually part of the whole hobby.
For the people who make them to perfect themselves.
If one doesn't want to then I'd say the hobby isn't for them.

Bonta, you forgot that Nike doesn’t build MG kits. He’s only collecting MG boxes. :D

And because I don't show my built kits means I only buy the kits and leave them?

FAIL LOGIC IS FAIL

I have some videos of them on private on my YouTube channel. I don't need haters spamming it. That's all. I'll show 1 video later in public. =)

It depends on what the individual in question is looking for. For instance, I'm a novice builder, so I snap kits together and that's about it. I personally prefer the HG line over the MG for lighter cost and slightly shorter build times, but the 00 MG line held my attention because of the awesome details. Having recently finished the MG 00 Seven Sword/G, I am immensely pleased with how it looks.

Not every kit has to be an MG to be worth buying: it simply has to be a model that one likes :)

I watch YouTube reviews to see if a kit is right for me, not hate the guy doing the review :heh: I think most people watch reviews for similar reasons.

The thing is, a lot of people thumbs down my videos without commenting, just on the fact that I posted a video. Sometimes it would be package video unboxing that I receive from friends, me showing off my game collection, showing my GunPla, etc. People just thumbs down the videos..

If I can get people to comment more, subscribe more, and thumbs up the videos (i.e. like, favorite, etc), then I might be more inclined on doing giveaways.

And sometimes, I do giveaway videos, and people still thumbs down... I mean the requirements are very simple. Comment, subscribe, like, and favorite. If you put in a video response, you get another entry. But if you do the 4 basic requirements, then you get 4 entries. >_>

I dunno why anyone would thumbs down, other than the fact that I uploaded it.

Go figure, eh? :uhoh:

Oh and I see that you finally did a MG from the 00 series. =) You see why I enjoy it so much? You see why I want 4 more MG's from 00.. Exia R2, Exia R3, 00 Qan[T] Full Saber, 00 Qan[T] ELS ver.).. =D

But for now, I think I will stay with Age MG's.. You should try them. They're very streamlined and efficient engineering, and they're like 1500 YEN (give or take) cheaper than the 00 Master Grades while still being very impressive..

Age-1 Normal
Age-1 Titus
Age-1 Sparrow
Age-2 Normal
Age-2 Darkhound (coming soon)

That's all that's out so far, but I am pretty sure that we will get:

MG Age-2 Double Bullet
MG Age-2 Normal Special Ops
MG Age-3 Normal
MG Age-3 Orbital
MG Age-3 Fortress
MG Age-FX
MG Legillis --> maybe
MG Age-1 Flat
MG Age-1 Flat (Grandsa)
MG Age-1 Flat (Zefuld Launcher)

...as regular and or P-Bandai Online releases.

I might've mentioned that I had a MG 00Q a while back, and if I didn't, I have now. That was a pretty fun build, and although I loved the construction and detail, I lamented the 00Q's minimalistic loadout. Interestingly enough, the full sabre was released as a promotional item or something in a Hobby Magazine (don't quote me on this one). That said, I am very satisfied with the MG 00SS/G and because term is starting, I don't think I'll have time to build any more models. Maybe I should post some images...

Meanwhile, as for your YouTube videos, I think you should review more kits, and show off some completed products. I think people don't like seeing boxes all the time, hence their responses :p
