QUOTE(StarGhazzer @ Jul 6 2010, 07:11 PM) Now Nightingale is even better... not only it holds two beam sabres there, it proudly displays its manhood in a protruding manner. Talking about manhood, ReZEL is certainly not left out. It's even pointing upwards!
And here's one in Eva Test Type colors.

QUOTE(Parody @ Jul 6 2010, 06:28 PM) You pointed out the bad parts yourself
Also apart from the heavy shield and weak arm joints, there's also the heavy shoulder thrusters and weak fingers which can't even grip the beam sabers properly.
Zeta 1.0 is bad no doubt, but they remedied it with a 2.0. GP02A got none.
Don't get me wrong, i love the MG's looks and proportions. But when the weapons are heavy and you pair it with loose joints or joints that become loose easily, it becomes a bad kit (at least to me). This is the main reason people have been complaining about MG Exia as well. Not because that the kit looks ugly or what, but the fact that the GN Sword is too heavy, and Exia has weak pelvic and ankle joints. See the problematic similarities with MG GP02A? That's why i called it a bad kit, but that's just from my point of view.
I have both the HG GP02A and the MLRS version, but sadly, it doesn't look anything like the MG.
Well.. the gp02 is using outdated tech, but it quite impressive kit. Wish bandai would make ver 2.0 with stronger internal frame. Guys if u were selling a built gundam, which is more expensive? A clean built or a painted,panel lined and topcoat kit?

GP02A is still one of the EF/Zeon's best MG piece. Though it lacks the beam bazooka like the latter HGUC Gp02A MLRS & GFF Gp02A. But Bandai really should release the GP00bGP04/Gerbera Tetra, then can complete all of the GP series, like how The-O did  . If Bandai releases GP02A 2.0, i really wish both of the beam bazooka & MLRS pack is included too  QUOTE(man_hakim87 @ Jul 6 2010, 07:45 PM) Well.. the gp02 is using outdated tech, but it quite impressive kit.

A clean built or a painted,panel lined and topcoat kit? i think, clean build (straight assemble) would be around 50%-60% of the original price. if it's painted and all, it should be around 60%-70% of the original price. my 2 cents This post has been edited by golbeza: Jul 6 2010, 08:26 PM

Well for me i guess clean built is more expensive compared to painted n all. Coz u still can customize the way u wanted it to be. Or im just lazy and want to skip the building process and straight to panel lining and painting.

I don't know how those PC-joints are going to withstand the weight of the weapon racks at the side. If it's standing, at least it can be supported by the ground, but if you put it on the stand...
Personally, i don't think this release will include all the weapons and rifle bits. Maybe Bandai will release another GNHW version? Just wait and see...
Hmm if the rifle bits are mounted at the upper back, Zabanya will have Vardant'ish look

Or im just lazy and want to skip the building process and straight to panel lining and painting.  To me, whether it fetches a high price or not depends on three things: 1) Buyer's main reason for purchasing. 2) Condition/Age of the kit. 3) Availability and demand in the market.
Generally, almost all painted/modded kits fetch a higher a price than retail UNLESS your paint job is sloppy, or the colors you used are too radical like this:

QUOTE(Parody @ Jul 7 2010, 03:00 AM) I think we got better chance of a V2 of a ZZ. Looking at the bandai trend of releasing V2's from the 2 original series. I was expecting a V2 ZZ but they produce a more affordable HG ZZ instead. QUOTE(zieraq @ Jul 7 2010, 11:31 AM) I 3rd this!
