What they are saying is that you can have the option to give the Banshee Unicorn's armaments to recreate the novel version of the Banshee after some minor repaintings.

So they are basically hinting at you to snap up more of the HG Unicorn just for the weapons. Recall how they give the Bazooka and Beam Saber blade to the Unicorn in it's GM mode and all they have for the Destroy mode is the regular Beam Magnum.

well THAT sucks! XD so in order to have the banshee in banshee mode (is it even called that? i dunno! O_o) and destroy mode as both the novel and the OVA version you need to buy 4 banshees (2 in destroy and 2 banshee mode) AND two extra unicorns? JEEZ! thats pretty mean, even for bandais standards XD

I don´t understand why people are surprised about this As soon as the price was made known, I already figured out that the Banshee won´t come with the Unicorn´s weapons. The price for both Unit´s is the same. If Bandai would had included the Magnum or the Bazooka, Bandai would charge more for it. I do wonder though, if one of the 2 Banshee´s will have beam saber blades...

you got a point there... all we had where those photos in the magazine scan, that causes roumors to spread pretty quickly :P
but on the other hand im really not mad about this because i like the new look of the banshee. it sets itself apart from the unicorn pretty nicely this way!

Yeah, those new weapons look pretty damn sexy imo. I´m glad they put in more variety with those.

Also, having both Unicorn and Banshee displayed in a battle scene... Can´t wait until I´m able to do that^^

Too late. I already did that and then posted the pix.

lol even as a MG I'd still say I wasn't fond of the Titus but I'd still get it for collections sake if I decided to get AGE stuff.

However I've always prefered the Spallow more even more so than the AGE-1.

But that however is when it has a custom paint job, which I think the AGE stuff can benefit alot from.

I said before that I found it kinda reminds me of transformers abit, which I'll admit is a kinda bonus

[suiton629]

I think I might also get the AGE-1 Normal, Titus, and Sparrow... =D

The Spallow/Sparrow is nice, im sure the AGE-1 MG is nice aswell, but personally i just can't stand the Titus,i doubt i'll get the spallow/sparrow either. the AGE-1 has nice articulation and the HG is nice aswell from what i've seen

Seriously? Are you trying to compete with people here on posting the latest images? That's very childish of you.


Anyway. What are the differences between the OVA and Novel versions of the Banshee? Aside from the weapons.

Oh and my parents just got back from Singapore and apparently, they bought me some kits: SD 00 Raiser and SD Force Impulse. The funny thing is 00 Raiser and Force Impulse are included in my wishlist but they are supposed to be master grades. They must have seen my wishlist that I was supposed to send to my local hobby store. I'll post pictures once I'm done painting them. (90% complete with the 00 Raiser)

The caption below the test shot of the novel Banshee in the scan suggest otherwise. Do ask if this is a misquote.

These figures are very tempting, but I'll wait for the gunpla versions next year.
