People have their rights to complain.
Aesthetics is purely subjective. It's like why people keep complaining about MG Hi-Nu, although it looks fine to me. People just hate that it's not as bulky as the initial artwork. To me, this MG ABF2L looks almost as good as PG ARF.  From Dalong, they reviewed that the joints are stiff and ok. Only problems are the front skirts keep popping out and the weak ankle joints adopted from MG Exia. |

anyway, here's a few original linearts and Bandai's revised models.
Which one looks better, you decide!!!   |

QUOTE(z3r0717 @ Oct 21 2009, 09:29 PM) Most of the gundams in anime looks ok... Yup. Kinda sad that people usually don't appreciate the enhancements Bandai has done on the robot designs.When bandai makes them a model kit.. a lot of them looks much nicer.. I never like impulse but the model kit is very nice... same goes to Strike, i find it normal but the Pg version is so much nicer... well, that's just my 2 cents People keep comparing Bandai with conversion kits' overly-done details and blocky muscles. I mean, price by price, it's not fair to compare them. |

QUOTE(wuwah @ Oct 22 2009, 12:05 AM) when it comes to the plastic modelling, manifacturer try to make them looks cool by adding more details. so, basically, PG and MG, bandai try to improve the overall design by adding more details, they sure don't want to make MG BF2R as its NG1/100 siblings, then people will complain that, better buy NG1/100 as they ar almost the same design i'd say.. Exactly! Don't know why most people in this forum find MG ABF2L not appealing. The guys over at ZeroG were more enthusiastic about this MG's release though. Guess beauty IS in the eye of the beholder  |

QUOTE(zieraq @ Oct 22 2009, 06:53 AM) in this forum, people easily influence by the 1st guy voicing out his opinion. later then got turn a syndrome. i kinda agree with you...  QUOTE(z3r0717 @ Oct 22 2009, 09:42 AM) That's because most of the zero-g members don't watch the animes... they are just modelers... I don't think you need to be a modeller to appreciate the design...But even more so, if they DID watch the anime, they'd appreciate Bandai's reworked design more |

can't believe that for a professional magazine modeller, he straight paste NG1/100 shoulders and backpack on the MG with no mods.
 prepare for another Zaku 2.0 milking...  |

QUOTE(300078 @ Oct 23 2009, 09:10 AM) hey it look kinda of cool compare to the current blue frame..... feel like a guy with well build upper body muscle. This one i give  .Apart from the color difference, how could the upper body be cooler if it's exactly the same one from MGABF2L?  QUOTE(z3r0717 @ Oct 23 2009, 10:04 AM) Actually it's not even easy if you just straight paste... definitely need some mods... not all the parts can fit well... those ppl who convert to MG kit need a lot of "surgery" to make it fit... Of course. What i meant was, apart from the joints or pegs or holes or whatever, this modeller did nothing to improve on the looks. Even the scabbard for Gerbera looks the same from NG1/100. |

QUOTE(quahk2006 @ Oct 23 2009, 03:37 PM) arent clear part only for japan resident? unless u order from hlj.. For buyers in Japan, you have to order it separately. For buyers outside Japan, it's included as a Special Package. Something like PG ARF, you have the basic set and another set that comes with the extra parts. Both will have different prices of course, with the basic PG 00 Raiser selling for about RM940 and the ones with clear parts about RM1100. |

QUOTE(wuwah @ Oct 23 2009, 11:18 PM) i saw SRW kits at xl-shop. price higher than gundam by bandai. may u tell me why? actually quite interested here. the plastic or other thing is better ar? Koto doesn't release as much units as Bandai, and usually, it's just a few batches before they're discontinued.Unlike Bandai, you can find 1997 kits with no problem because they still release it every once in a while. Hence the price is a bit stiffer. |

QUOTE(zieraq @ Oct 24 2009, 10:22 PM) PG 00, can anyone tell me who design the mech for the anime season 2? until now I still can't bring myself to like them EXCEPT Reborns gundam/cannon. I don't have any of the kit coz they r sooooo ugly  I wanna puke. bandai should dump 00 raiser & work on reborns gundam instead  I also bored with the fact that protagonist of any gundam series will definitely have the all white, blue chest red crotch & foot. yeah, i prefer S1 mechs over the S2's. C'mon, even the Gadessa, Garazzo and Gaddess designs look like they were stolen from Linebarrels.  The only mech in S2 i find interesting was 00 Gundam (after they added 0 Raiser), and the Susanowo/Masurao design. QUOTE(naith @ Oct 24 2009, 10:49 PM) I thought Bakuc only cheaper than departmental stores. I think they're about the same price as hobby stores Some hobby stores are cheaper, actually  |

Funny how people complained that MG ABF2L slimmed down, yet no one saw how HGUC Kshatriya lost a few hundred pounds
