Kshatriya has a overall height of 22.3m in 1/144 scale that's around 15.48cm.
On the other hand, Queen Mansa has a overall height of 42.1m in 1/400 scale that's around 10.53cm.
So, technically Kshatriya is taller

By the way, Sinanju should actually be taller with an overall height of 22.6m.
Guess the binders are notched up.

whoever built the kshatriya is pretty bad in gunpla skill.... can see nib marks all over..
kshatriya cheat one la, using binder to make it bigger (That's y i like it so much~~ ^^). Even without binder, the antenna is super tall....

November scans of Gundam Ace shows lineart and mech profiles of Heavyarms Ver. Ka,



next MG for December perhaps? Like they did with Deathscythe and Wing Ver. Okawara(also appearing a month before in Gundam Ace).
If it is I'll have a tough time choosing between this and the Endless Waltz Ver.
On one hand, standard Ver. Ka has the heat knife and single multi barrel beam chaingun which is awesome and on the other hand, Endless Waltz Ver. has four multi barrel solid round chaingun but, no CQB weapon.
Heh, maybe I'll have to do it like Deatscythe, get both.

I don't know why you're comparing it between two different scales.

Specs from MAHQ shows the following height (up to the head) irregardless of the model kit's actual height:
Queen Mansa 39.2m
Kshatriya 22.3m
Sinanju 22.6m

Now to decide: single barrel gatling gun or double barrel gatling gun. Hmm...

Heh, I was comparing the model kits. Since kshatriya only available in 1/144 and Queen Mansa in 1/400.
If compare the full scale kinda straight forward which is bigger right?

Of course is single barrel gatling gun !!! It make it more special and more like Okawara and ver. ka feel.

Then we should compare 1/144 Kshatriya with SD Queen Mansa for greater effect!

Well, i really like the concept of storing the dagger behind the arms and the beam saber compartment inside the lower arms of the Ver KA.

I prefer the orange color scheme as well, but i don't think it can beat the clown mask and the twin double barrel gatling guns of the H-A Custom. That is just pure ownage.

Strike Freedom is a shorty.

If not for the hands and the inside details of the shield, it's really hard to tell this is not an MG.

erkkk..
i wan this!!!
gud thing i didnt buy the normal ReZel

MG 1/100 ReZel Commander Type (Release Date: Jan. 2011, Price: 5000 Yen)

Lol bro, the concept follows the TV version.. Heavyarms got no beam saber, in the anime Heero used the Heavyarms to fight Zechs so they removed the fore arm and attached the beam saber there..

That build was straight out of the box to with a main purpose of showing ppl a quick review of the kit, nothing to do with skill. If you have those book size gunpla catalog, they are all builded straight out of the box and the nib marks are visible in al of them (HG, MG, PG you name it)

anyone can translate the words?



LED "sumthing sumthing"

Regardless of version, I think Heavyarms would be a great building experience with so many missile compartments and gun barrels. If the 1/100 NG was already so fun to build, I wonder how the MG would be(that is if it does come out).

LED sold separately.... it from MG 00 Quanta right?

i was hoping "LED included"

Lol, just slight difference from the MG..

Yup, i know. But i really prefer the looks of the version KA over the TV version.

I thought Katoki had removed all the TV version's concept for his version. So, if the version KA has all the same concepts as the TV version, then i would be picking up the former rather than the latter, although i still like the latter's gatling gun better.

Let's wait for Bandai's announcement!

This one screams Master Grade.

Totally has no wow factor like when i first saw PG Strike or PG ARF.

This one screams High Grade 1/144.

I'm definitely skipping both. (No, this will not be a Turn A syndrome)

Honestly, I don't think we shouldn't be complaining/griping much about the new MGs which already have very good HG equivalents(eg. GN-X and 00Q) which are also relatively new cause nowadays the HGs already have very good articulation, detail and proportions. When making the MG I guess it would be better to follow the already good HG proportions and work on it a little(eg. sharpening up the edges and making weapons longer and more menacing like 00Q).

I guess the main selling point of the newer generation MGs would have to be (slightly)better articulation, better details and special gimmicks only possible with a mechanical frame. Either that or the 1/100 scale which some people like better.
Definitely nothing too radical like the previous generation and the HGs nowadays are just seriously good.
At the end of the day it's kinda like getting the best of both worlds, if you REALLY like a kit, you'd buy it regardless of scale and maybe even more than one of it too.
Just my two cents, no offense intended.

i agree with u ...
i have MG gn-x n for my opinion its a nice kit n will definitely buy 00[Q] when it release.

I agree with you to a certain extent, but when we're talking about similarities, either in proportions, looks, or articulations, there should only be similarities between the HG 1/144s and the NG 1/100s. MGs should be a level (or several levels) higher than both of those grades.

After all, we ARE paying more.

If they could improve on the quality of HG 1/144s like you've mentioned, why isn't the MG line improving as much? It has already come to a point where the HG 1/144s have a quality almost equal to the MG. So where does this put the NG 1/100 line? Somewhere worse off than the HG 1/144s? Why don't they improve on that line as well?

I'm sure some people will agree with me that gimmicks and interior details aren't really that important since we leave them fully assembled (and maybe fully painted) and are left in a fixed pose for God knows how long.

The recent releases of HG 1/144s are good (i'm looking at God, ZZ, Unicorn and Sinanju). It's because they have the MG version first, and worked backwards for a 1/144 release. This has resulted in the HG 1/144 Sinanju having a better shield attachment than the MG's flimsy one.



The HG 1/144 Unicorn has better knee and shoulder articulations than the MG. Although it has lost the transforming capability, honestly speaking, a transforming one wouldn't be feasible (or likeable) at all in 1/144 scale.

Then we have those models that have HG 1/144s first before the MG. Taking your example of MG 00Q, since they already have a good HG 1/144 to use, i'm sure they could come up with a better one (in terms of looks/articulations/proportions) rather than just slapping an inner frame in it, increase the scale, and call it Master Grade.

A similar, and more impressive, example is the MG Strike Noir. Both MG 00Q and SN had no NG 1/100s released. Both the HG 1/144 versions had good proportions and gimmicks. But if you compare MG 00Q and MG SN to their HG 1/144 counterparts, you could see why they had done a better job on MG SN and why i'm disappointed in MG 00Q.

It's just my viewpoint, and maybe i'm just creating excuses to buy Gundams less. But hey, saving money isn't really a bad thing now, is it?
