QUOTE(StarGhazzer @ Apr 19 2011, 07:17 PM) Many MGs released after the first two 2.0s (MKII/Zeta) have 180-degree swinging wrists, so it's not something unique to the MKII. And also, many new MGs can so upper torso side crunches - heck even the RX78 2.0 can do it with the corefighter in situ. The MKII's waist can't go a full 360 as it gets obstructed by the top of the rear skirt. Not a huge problem given that nobody poses their gunpla with the waist rotated more than 90 (or even 45) degrees anyway. MKII can't do a full crouch like the Zaku 2.0 either, and by full crouch I mean knee in close proximity to the chest; not the standard bazooka-launching kneeling-on-one-knee pose. The head vulcan pod always reminds me of gundam-wearing headphones. Funky.
Yes, the RX-78-2 2.0 could do side crunches as well, but my point is not many MGs can do that. Since MK-II's release, i would say less than 5 or 6 can.
MK-II's waist can actually go a full 360 degrees. The grey part of the waist could actually be lifted up slightly so that it doesn't get blocked by the rear skirt armor when you turn the upper body. Although i wouldn't suggest you do this if you've painted it because the upper torso would be resting on the rear skirt armor and might chip paints. 
Zaku II 2.0's crouch is cheating. It moves the skirt armors away to the back to do that. No other MGs can do that. Heck, even the other versions of the Zaku II 2.0 can't do that! Isn't it a little unfair to give MK-II a death sentence for that? 
But after all that debate, MK-II 2.0 is still a good kit. For the (whatever) amount of MGs that have surpassed it in articulation, it's a good thing because it shows that GunPla is improving. But for Gundams with huge backpacks or weapons, that flexibility would actually be a disadvantage. Case in point: MG ABF2L, 00Q and possibly 00R. I tremble thinking about them.

Hello Gundam Fans! Here I would like to share this monster with you! Cheers! MSA-0011 [Ext] Ex-S Gundam This is Bandai 1/100 MG MSA-0011(Ext) Ex-S Gundam plus the SMS Workshop Resin Conversion Kit, after modification this monster machine is extremely heavy and reach the height of approximately 28cm, painted in high detail but unfortunately it can't transform into the long range G-Cruiser mode after the conversion, but is good enough for display purpose.

ok ok lemme rephrase that wokay? it's not LEGAL. It's using BanDai's licensed product/design to come up with their own. IPs are concerned here and if Bandai/Sunrise wants it, they can go to a lawsuit like they did to TTHL as much as i wanna see how is it like also, i can still go here to see: http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/450761ok? faham'ed? |
