QUOTE(StarGhazzer @ Feb 23 2011, 08:22 PM) Good job Katoki for adding more details to the wings, but I don't like the way he toned down the fins on the face, the huge chest orb, the massive shoulder armours, the spiky skirt armours, and what's with the blocky legs? Too much mucking around, Katoki-san  I believe those are his trademark.
However, i prefer a slimmer Epyon to go with its advertised speed. When it's big and bulky, it just doesn't seem fast anymore.

QUOTE(MyKy44 @ Feb 25 2011, 03:09 PM) ^i think it comes with a fixed hand right? just need 1 hand fix, the other articulated to nicely pose  Unfortunately, it's not an entire fixed hand like MG Sword Impulse's. It'll require part swapping like MG Wing TV, which would probably become so loose after a few times to properly hold anything.

QUOTE(nazrul90 @ Feb 25 2011, 05:06 PM) i think articulated hand work better with weaponless gundam like god gundam I'm kinda glad MG God didn't come with articulated fingers. They sure couldn't pull off those kung-fu stances.
QUOTE(MichaelJohn @ Feb 25 2011, 11:27 PM) Talking about markers , what do you usually use ? 0.2? 0.4? Depends on the size of the Gundam; 1/144, 1/100, or 1/60 scale.
QUOTE(blinky_w @ Feb 26 2011, 08:56 AM) » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « Hmm... Gaza looks interesting in those colors. I wonder if Dra-C will ever get released considering the legs are non-existent.
QUOTE(wrk13s @ Feb 26 2011, 10:22 AM) is that a custom or actually released by bandai? Bandai's.

QUOTE(MyKy44 @ Feb 26 2011, 06:47 PM) hmm your first pic looks very very purple That's because it's painted.
QUOTE(athrun234 @ Feb 27 2011, 09:29 AM) Just wondering, is the Normal Deathscythe can attach with Hell Custom Wings??
QUOTE(Exiled_Gundam @ Feb 27 2011, 10:02 AM) Hmm from the manual, it seems can It's compatible with MG Wing TV too!
QUOTE(athrun234 @ Feb 27 2011, 09:29 AM) Seriously dood?? I never had Wing Series MG before. Dun know how the knee articulations are. at Dalong, they never show crouching/kneeling pose wan.....(except for the Inner frame)  Prinny dood! The knees have nice movement range. It can't crouch because of the spikes on the knees and toes.
QUOTE(Agito666 @ Feb 27 2011, 01:46 PM) original look before cut, looks like you also had to cut the balls right? » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « Anyone who's ever build some Gundams before would easily know you're not supposed to cut that ball out. Just look at the pipes. It'll always become narrow when the actual part starts, except for really huge pieces.
Here's a solution for you:» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « Get an unused/unwanted HGUC neck part and cut it like so:

Any other ABS part that would fit that RG hole could be used as well. But since there's a hole in the ABS, stick a pipe from the runner into the hole and cut it off like so:

Superglue/cement that part into your RG waistplate, and you're good to go! This post has been edited by Parody: Feb 27 2011, 03:40 PM

QUOTE(nazrul90 @ Feb 28 2011, 05:52 PM) GN Condenser also have LED i think  I don't think so. The ones on display in the exhibition don't look like they have LEDs.
Besides, the GN condenser tanks don't actually glow in the movie.

QUOTE(Agito666 @ Feb 28 2011, 07:17 PM) head 1 , 2 gn drive, and 2 leg. Legs? Are you sure? Then it doesn't make sense. The arms need LEDs too then!
------

Looks too much like the HG 1/144. I was hoping Bandai would adopt the PG or even the Metal Build look, but i guess they don't want them to compete with each other.

A skip for me. Too much possibilities of variations on this one. I'll just wait and see.

QUOTE(Agito666 @ Feb 28 2011, 11:05 PM) the last 2 is what?  GN Condenser Tanks.
QUOTE(nazrul90 @ Feb 28 2011, 11:06 PM) but you said no LED at that part?  Well, it doesn't look like it had LED in the initial pictures. And those tanks aren't supposed to glow.
It's just another reason for Bandai to sell LEDs.

QUOTE(gaiachronicler @ Mar 1 2011, 10:15 PM) btw, what's with the image/wallpaper sudden interest spamming?  Because that's what Gunplayers do when they're bored.
QUOTE(Kikifish @ Mar 2 2011, 02:28 AM) i think for the MG 00.. the GN drive and condenser share the same led.. its like changing the cap.. 1 for the head.. 2 for the shoudlers and the last 2 is at the wings? the 0 raiser wings.. Hmm... now that you mention it, there are pictures of some green light there. Perhaps the GN Condenser tanks really don't have any LEDs at all.
QUOTE(HazardXZ @ Mar 2 2011, 03:38 AM) Why cant bandai put all LED in all MG... Pricier and incomplete head frame for a feature i don't even use. No thanks. Besides, lights on 1/100 scale are too small to be appreciated.
QUOTE(cloudaeris @ Mar 2 2011, 09:10 AM) if u notice 00 raiser NG has led in its eyes, n both gn drives, it'd b lame n critisized if bandai has no led gimmicks in mg  Yup, that's why there're 5 LEDs this time instead of 3! Take that NG 00R!!!
QUOTE(LagunaLoire @ Mar 2 2011, 12:25 PM) Gatling gun re-released. Sinanju bazooka next maybe? That's not a re-release. They claim it's the Anime Color version and i believe them.
QUOTE(ur4m3shi @ Mar 2 2011, 02:04 PM) sigh ... D-Hell Custom EW ver come out edy @ your-least-favourite-last-resort-shop-at-timesquare ... but super bad timing .. now no cash to buy ...demmm!!!!! Patience my friend. Your wallet agrees with me.

QUOTE(MyKy44 @ Mar 2 2011, 05:04 PM) maybe the fact it lacked groove lines, tht's y like not so detailed :/ The proportions and angles are wrong in the first place. I hope H-Arms, Sandrock & Epyon turn out alright.
QUOTE(Exiled_Gundam @ Mar 2 2011, 05:04 PM) hmm anyone can confirm whether the EW shenlong dragon arm can be transferred to left arm? Can't really confirm as of now, but since Bandai made ShenLong with Altron EW (Nataku) in mind, i'm quite sure it can since the latter is equipped with the Dragon Fang at both arms. The fact that this ShenLong doesn't have an extending arm further increases the chances.

If i'm not mistaken, you guys' calibration is using the "cool" settings, which is more soothing to the eyes if you're on for long hours. Cool settings have a blueish hue to it, and pink with a blueish tinge makes it purple, which is what you guys saw.

QUOTE(hyzam1212 @ Mar 3 2011, 09:17 AM) Why no Bandai love for Dreadnought Gundam (only HG), they should make an MG of this one a long time ago...very formidable MS Very very unlikely they'll make an MG of this.
QUOTE(ascentic @ Mar 3 2011, 11:08 AM) To have different feel bro.. any idea? coz I combine half from astrea normal, half of astrea type F = metal heat astrea  than I wanna add on the back pack for wing ver Ka on it.. so I really wonder wat will it become.. will it look ugly? tat's why need some opinion A better one would be a Unicorn's head on the white Astraea's body with Wing Zero Custom's angel wings.

QUOTE(Exiled_Gundam @ Mar 3 2011, 06:22 PM) Actually the peg mechanism are only suitable for weapons that have fixed area for the hands (rifles, bazookas for example have a fixed handle, while beam saber handle is not that long anyway, so peg mechanism is still viable). Deathscythe's scythe (and subsequently Shen Long's trident) has long handle; the hands could be positioned anywhere along the handle, so peg mechanism will just restrict the position. Well said. Although i have to admit, with fixed hands, some dynamic poses will not be possible especially when the MG DSH EW's forearm armors are so obstructive.
QUOTE(shauno @ Mar 3 2011, 06:27 PM) i think fully articulate fingers are a waste. couldn't be happier with fixed hands. the male peg does zilch to help in holding weapons.. Agreed. Anything slightly heavier and it won't hold. MG Sinanju's bazooka, anyone?
QUOTE(asuk @ Mar 3 2011, 06:34 PM) to make individual movable fingers would mean much more smaller parts & fragile parts, thus more likely to break Agreed. You see people whining about the RG's articulated fingers, and now they want articulated fingers on small-sized MGs. Doesn't make much sense, does it?
