can't coat the joints with superglue or paint or something to enlarge them? my sinanju also can't hold it's kick pose for very long without the leg sagging...hopefully after painting will be better...
*

MG Sinanju ain't so bad because they're ABS joints. Should be stiff if you don't move them much.

PC parts on the other hand, get loose overtime, whether you move them or not. sweat.gif

Just wonder if GP01 is going to receive the V2.0 treatment, I wonder would GP02 and GP03 does?

I don't think GP01 will receive a 2.0 upgrade, but if it does, GP01fb and GP02 might get it. GP03 is least likely among those.

Anyhow, just wanna know anyone has "invested" in the recent PG Strike Freedom, I'm planning to get one, maybe mid of this year. For those who bought one, anything to share?

Ever wonder why car expos are filled with gorgeous exhibition girls? Same reason as Bandai's.


QUOTE(takara @ Feb 11 2011, 09:49 AM)
Hope Strike will got better looks in RG treatment with more detailing parts. Just my two cents.

I don't think it'll look like the PG. It'll be more anime-like.

The screws really serve no purpose at all, other than the ones in the G-Gundam series.

Good prediction man...But based on 2010 MG Wishlist MS Survey Results on May, Victory 2 was the winner followed by The O (released 2010) and 00 Raiser; should be in Bandai 2011 list rite? hmm.gif
Should be due to its popularity, It was third in the official MG wishlist survey  brows.gif
*

Well for starters, The O was in the top 3 for almost every survey conducted in the last 10 years, yet it didn't receive the MG treatment until recently. My point is, eventhough it's in the top 3, it doesn't mean it's gonna be released anytime soon.

People keep thinking there's gonna be an MG V2 Gundam soon just because V Gundam was released. They thought Bandai could just slap on a different set of armor on the V and sell it as V2.

What they fail to see is that the V and V2 are both essentially different Gundams (like Nu and Hi-Nu). No MG parts from the V can be used for the V2. Bandai needs to come up with a new kit rather than slightly modifying the V Gundam, and i don't see them doing it anytime soon as there're just too much better MGs to focus on currently (Wing EW, Unicorn, 00).

No Zaku II???!!! mega_shok.gif

I used to be like you, but after i picked up the Zaku II 2.0, i realised how assembling a mono-eye is so much different from a Gundam. That's what made it interesting for me.
Not to mention that the Zaku II 2.0 itself is a very good kit. notworthy.gif

*

First of all, visit Dalong Dot Net, click on the MG tag at the top and scroll down to the Zaku you wanna see.

All the model kits in that site are unpainted. They are only panel lined. Do they look good to you? You decide. wink.gif

Sorry Parody, I can't help but to answer this question. smile.gif

Ok, Char's Zaku II is MS-06S (The red one) while the normal Zaku II are MS-06F (The green one), between the 2 model, the most significant different between them are their back pack and there are 5 extra thruster at the calf of MS-06S.
*

No need to be sorry, my friend. I just thought pictures speak better than words.

And uhh.... if you wanna answer the question, please be thorough. Your answer still is missing the leg cannons and the hangar cart.

He also asked about the differences of ALL the other Zaku IIs as well.

From the shine of the red parts, i think it's just panel-lined. No painting applied. nod.gif

Hi guys, just curious what's the major difference (obvious was the appearance but still not much diff) between the new 2011 wing gundam and 2010 one, worth getting or better stick with the 1st?
*

Already answered in an earlier post.
QUOTE(Parody @ Jan 23 2011, 04:20 PM)
If my screen's color calibration is correct, the color changes should be:

Wing Ka > Wing EW
Orange yellow > flat yellow
Cream (yellowish) white > flat white
Grey brown (for inner frame and rifle) > grey
Bright blue > dark blue

The new version will come with 2 connector parts (robot mode & bird mode) to be used on the Action Base. And obviously, it won't have the Ver KA decals although you can buy it separately if you can still find it.  nod.gif

Not regular lineup. They're limited editions. Already been released earlier and this is the reissue.

Reviews here and here.

This kit looks like a failure. Look at that awkward pose! doh.gif

Very basic shoulder articulation. It would be good for Altron Custom to handle the dragon fangs' weight but that just sucks.

The exposed knee joint looks... weird? blink.gif

It really depends on which one you prefer.

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «


Personally, i would take the orange one because it has
1) a bigger beam gatling gun
2) a shield
3) army knives
4) a striking color scheme, at least until they release Arios or (oh-my-God-no) Harute. sweat.gif

Mark Setter should be applied first before you place the decal. And it's used on wet transfer decals, NOT dry transfers or stickers.

Mark Softener is applied after.

Katoki's Heavyarms did not have a shield, but sports a much larger gatling complete with the ammo belt and drum which gives it a more realistic look. Okawara's design was the one with the shield.

Oh right. My bad. I thought there was still a shield attached to the gatling gun. sweat.gif

Speaking of Unicorns, anyone interested in the ANA version could just get the Titanium Finish version (HG or MG) and spray/paint the psychoframe with metallic blue. Looks just like ANA.

I think there are gonna be two kinds:
5000 yen - basic MG 00 Raiser.
7500 yen - basic MG with 2 GN condenser tanks, 2 LEDs for the 2 GN Drives, and some chrome coating here and there.
