Legs didn't get any thinner, but the feet were downsized. I don't have any problems with the downsizing since it's still proportionate, and in fact I like the stubby legs of the MG as it adds more bulk to it.

There's nothing wrong with non-functioning hands? It's only a beam rifle and with the usual peg and socket it shouldn't have problems holding it even with articulating fingers. It's not as if it's holding a bazooka or a heavy launcher. There's nothing wrong with including a set of hands with movable fingers either since there's already ready-made ones from the smaller MGs.

Scheduled for Nov 09, but give it a few weeks to a month before it arrives in local shops... unless you somehow pre-ordered it.

The biggest leg MG Gundam is which one? GP01bp?

GP02 probably.

at first i was thinking of the X-104FF Penelope Gundam, but then again, GPO2A's legs are better

As for the thinnest mg leg. i think is mg impuse.

should b F91 o god gundam for mini legs

n00b. sure la Dom will win, hands down. Nothing beats the trumpet legs

hey not mentioning MONO EYES lah

ya ka?

You just said it yourself
Anyway, every company wants to cut costs ler... extra pair of hands means extra costs. Otherwise, all MGs would have those few good pairs of hands that came with MG Strike Noir and Strike E IWSP. Alas, I can only hope so.

Haha I do remember early MGs include both articulated and static hands. Nowadays no more already

yup last time they did come togather like my kampfer but nowadays marketing wise they sell it saperate to milk even more $$ from us.

lol... typo I meant "shouldn't"... going to edit it now.

It doesn't cost any much more to add an extra pair of palms.
Maybe it's Bandai's way of making MGs. There's rarely a "perfect" release as there will always be room for improvement...

Because they added the peg to the hands to secure the weapons. It works pretty fine with rifles, but bazookas-wise sometimes in order to fix the peg into the weapon's hole you can't pose more exaggerated poses. My Zaku's bazooka is never plugged into the peg for posing purposes but there's no problem holding it. The Gundam v2.0's bazooka length prohibits it from posing extravagantly with the peg too.

Yeah, i like the way how a Zaku can carry his bazooka under the arms, instead of over the shoulders.

Since we're on the topic of bazookas, it's funny how many gunpla kits are incapable of good over-the-shoulder bazooka poses thanks to the bulky armours and the proportion of the bazooka. By that I mean the bazooka pointing forward rather than pointing down, and in particularly holding it with two hands.

GP03 is one serious offender, in fact the bazooka is totally useless for posing over the shoulder.
MKII's tiny bazooka gets blocked by the beam sabre holders and sits pretty high up due to the chunky shoulder armour.
Gundam v2.0's bazooka looks superb but the handle is too close to the cartridge hence it often detaches from the palm peg. But the super shoulder joint helps a lot.
Zaku v2.0... you need to move the shoulder shield out of the way.
Sinanju? LOL.
Kampfer too. Large shoulders.

It's a pity since bazookas looks more menacing than the generic rifle.

The best two-handed pose I managed to do with the MKII would be this...

Haha GP03 Bazooka was suppose to be hold under it arms anyway. IIRC I can only see GP03 wields its bazooka on the shoulder is when it docked with Orchis. Kampfer's bazooka seems to be fired just from the back (and in the anime IIRC, it was fired not from standing pose.

I think GP02 and Ez8 is not bad when it comes to holding bazooka.. and Rick Dom also.

GP02 was meant to carried Bazooka with Nuclear warhead..... it has a special dock at its shoulder allowing it to lock on better.....



It destroy the whole EFSF space fleet in one blow. Long Live ZEON

new (or isit not new) info, the legs of 00 PG has lock mechanism which can withstand up to 1.5kg of weight..(i cant get the image link from there.. )

Hm... I actually don't recall GP03 firing bazookas apart from being in the Orchis, but I could be wrong.

GFF Metal Unicorn... very sexy, very expensive.

Seems to have a titanium finish instead of pure white for its armour. Not sure whether it requires any part swapping for transformation apart from the horn, but I doubt so. Good to see Bandai including the gatlings this time, but I think they actually left out the forearm sabres instead. Bandai just had to leave out something, don't they?

whoa! I can't pose mine like that also

Sinanju's a joke la. The only way i pose the awsm bazooka is attach it to the sniper rifle. still looks good though
