Remember the Triaina from HG IBO sidestory?

P-Bandai Exclusive: HGUC 1/144 MSZ-006 Zeta Gundam (Wave Shooter Equipment Type)

Now this is actually a most unusual kit, since it's not a variant of the Zeta Gundam that exists anywhere.... except outside of the old HG 1/144 Zeta Gundam as can be seen by the wing binder configuration. It's essentially a throwback to that old model kit.

[Obelisk ze Tormentor]

^ Hmm...that Wave Shooter mode actually interests me more than the normal HGUC Zeta. I might pick up that P-Bandai. Since it's HG, the price inflation shouldn't be too much of a hassle.

And Bandai is making the rest of EW Gundams in RGs? Where the hell is my MG Sandrock Custom EW?!

[Chibiloli]

So a Reborns Variant that can turn into a Shamblo....

[Rising Dragon]

Okay that is pretty fuckin' sexy.

[Faux Mecha]

i think it should have instead turn into a GN Tank, the Guntank homage, to balance it out with the GN Cannon/Reborns Cannon.

[GN0010 Nosferatu]

The MS mode for the Reversible Gundam looks great. MA mode...not so much.

They heard ya!
P-Bandai MG Gundam Sandrock Custom EW

Spoiler for image:

The shield's mold is the same as the original MG Sandrock EW so it doesn't look like the one in the old HG 1/144 Sandrock Custom. That's a bit of a bummer.
Even the cape have decals. What the hell?!

On a related note, MG Tallgeese II, MG Tallgeese III, Gundam Heavyarms Custom EW, and MG Gundam Nataku EW will be having reissues in the coming months.

Oh yes, grea...wait...what the hell is with the color of the pauldrons? They look totally opposite of the anime! :

Spoiler:

If the kit is supposed to be the representation of the EW anime, they didn't do a good job at it. Even the 1/100 models did it better.

Godammit! This is the last P-Bandai MG Gundam EW movie and they dropped the ball on a couple points: We didn't get the proper shield coz Bandai is too lazy to make one, pauldrons' colors are switched unnecessarily, and.....rubber cape?

I don't know about the rubber-cape. It looks cool enough, but I also like the soft fabric cape they used in my 1/100 model, let's compare it:

Spoiler for fotos:

Oh well, at least when I got the kit, I'll have two Sandrocks with two different form of capes. This way, I'll have more options for display. That's not bad.

[Skye629]

Im back!

Instabought that Sandrock btw, my collection is complete now

(made do with the old HG Serpent though, not much choices there, I hope it gets a RE/100 at some point)

I really like what they did for the face transformation. Simple yet effective.

I gotta ask before I buy, is the Seven Swords 00 Gundam compatible with the 0-Raiser?

[Router25]

Of course it does. In HG, RG and MG, they're just using the same 00 Gundam as the base respectively.

not only this kit is exact repaint, the small yellow circle detail in the shoulder that differentiate sandrock ew and sandrock kai ew were unchanged

It has the 00 Gundam Gunblades though right? Because I want to make a 00-Taiser but the mall only had 00-raiser with GN sword 3(didn't need a spare 0-raiser) and the seven sword, so I bought the seven sword.

If you're talking about the regular GN sword 2 then yes, the seven swords kit have that as a bonus. but if you're after the GN sword 3 only the 00 Raiser with GN sword 3, the Trans-Am Raiser and the 00 Raiser condenser type have that.

So what are the odds of the Accelerate GN-X leading to a normal 1/144 GN-X IV.

I wish the Superbia GN-X got a kit, too.
