I din't watch th novel, so I din't know that was only One DP in Unicorn, I just thought DP is like some mass produce squad that like Rezel or got various of DP series.... biggrin.gif

Well, is either bandai nerf it to standard rifle or ...another bandai Marketing Strategy... tongue.gif

Now you know more about the DP biggrin.gif And for what it's worth, have a look at the FA Hyaku Shiki's rifle which the DP's version is based on. Note that the DP rifle's hand guard is stuck to the handle rather than being a separate piece, and it also has a different butt and has more cables on the side.

Dunno why Bandai likes to muck around with original designs... First the weird decision to release the lesser known Deathscythe ver Ka, and now the inaccurate representation of the DP. I guess the worst thing they can do now is to turn the Nightingale into a slim humanoid unit instead of the armoured space beetle it is supposed to be.

Anyway, The O looks magnificent; although from all the preview pictures it is very unlikely to have any special gimmicks apart from the armour-on-frame feature that was already present on the Gelgoog 2.0. Too bad the price is a killer, and yet Bandai continues on being a cheapskate by bundling only 2 beam sabres.

delta plus still not final I think so I hold my rant until the final form surface whistling.gif

Indeed, the final product might give us a good surprise. Nevertheless I'm not holding my breath as by the time the prototype are released to the public it means that Bandai are already in the process of moulding the kit.

Black head, not white Bandai ! doh.gif doh.gif Shield and scythe are oversized... MG Deathscythe ver Okawara please.
At least the black and yellow parts looks spot on.

Sinanju in HGUC form loses a bit of sleekness but overall it still looks pretty good.

No idea... most likely a custom design by some mecha artist which eventually got popularised.

Actually, Katoki's art shows that the head is white. So, it's correct.

As for the colors, it's not actually spot on. Katoki used dark grey and yellow with an orange tinge for it.  sweat.gif

As for the shield and the scythe being oversized, well, in the actual lineart it's even worse.
Who's complaining about a big scythe anyway? When MG DSHC releases, that enormous cloak will make the scythe look puny.

The black head statement is more of a rant on why Bandai decided to release ver Ka instead of DHC or anime version. The white head looks far too tame compared to the black one of the latter duo.

I wonder how many people will hold out for the inevitable DHC... or better still, buy both laugh.gif

Not exactly the correct shade of violet, but at least it's better than hot pink. Good thing Bandai didn't muck around with the colours.

Now please don't mess up the Sinanju's colours... just use back the Sazabi's chili red please... not Char's salmon pink.

I feel I can skip this one as from my six sense I think they will release another newer commander version.

but i think it kinda lame giving them a punny gun instead of hyper beam cannon. sad.gif

i think I more attracted with this than all other above.

Same here... the HGUC Sinanju is the only one that interests me.

MG Rezel... they're doing the same thing as the Zaku2.0... Everybody knew the S, F, R1/R2 will be inevitable, but not everyone is patient enough to wait hence pouncing on the basic J type at the very first moment.

My stance on the Delta Plus is same as yours. No beam launcher, no purchase for me. Fix this in the MG, ok Bandai?
