Yea I think ill wait too for the new HG 0 Raiser I might buy the 1/100 0 Riser but who knows what the Gundam 00 MG's will come out

[Okamidum]

Yeah, im guessing the 00 would be the first release of MG's from this series...hopefully there will also be more(MG Cherudim and Arios would be nice)

So I figured I really hate those stupid stickers that they gave us for the GNX-III A laws, so I recolored the whole thing and also did Exia in his rollout colors.

[MrCapcom]

how did u color it?

[Okamidum]

Aerosol paint. I had to be very careful on how I used or else it could of just messed up everything. Other then that it turned out better then I expected.

[JackRydden224]

I bet a MG 00 Gundam is already in the works, if not it is at least in the planning stage or what not. There are only so many main characters Gundams to be left out of the MG treatment.

To be honest I was disappointed with the 1/100 00 Raiser because of its waist joints. The standard joint, or the lack there of really limits its range of movements. As much as a Seravee with 6 beam sabers would be, if it is going to be as stiff as an 80yr old then yea...bummer.

So what is the Feb MG? I think Shin Musha sp set is for march and Sword Impluse is for April. (makes me wonder if this economical crisis the reason why we are getting 2 recolours..)

[MrCapcom]

Oh see I hear alot of people saying how they don't like that theres no waist joint and quite frankly I don't care so maybe thats why I love my 00 so much :-)

Possible PG Astray variations?

Shown are PG-ized parts of the Astray Gold Frame Amatsu (on the left), M-1 Astray, and Astray "Unit 5", which seems to be another totally new Astray.

[MrCapcom]

don't see any pictures but I saw something on Ngee maybe thats what your talking about. PG Astray is 1/60 right? I would love to get it probally a arm n leg >_>

Shame that the SD ROTK series never gets much love around here when Bandai actually puts in effort to feature each mech's unique ability into the context of medival China, in which you can see as follows


Ma Chao Blue Destiny in Normal and Berserk mode.


Huang Zhong MK-II using his G-Defensor parts as a really huge long bow which fits his Character in ROTK.

Ugghh...expected that. But do Astrays really have that many fans to buy them all?

We'll just have to see. As it is, Gundam modeling is a completionist's hell.

[Amber.Dawn]

Robot Damashi (however you spell it) is basically an action figure, while the Bandai models are something you have to build and detail yourself. Can't really "play" with the models, but they generally make for better poses because of the detail and articulation put into them. And, uh, HCM Pro stuff is pretty much a detailed, albeit smaller, hybrid of Damashi figures and model kits.

Try getting the customise stand for the Unicorn and Sinaju :-



You can see Bandai throw in the Decals with Unicorn and Sinanju motif to be used on the stands, but you can try using them on the model instead.

I've heard the first two were listed as discontinued on HLJ but you could try the general decals for CCA for the Sazabi. I recall at least the Neo Zeon crest and Char's insignia being on that.

As for using the action base's decals, while valid the Sinaju doesn't have much wide and flat surfaces to use those large decals. Not including the fact that the curvy surfaces make for a few horrible hours in applying decals.

Ahh, Ok, thank you.
