I do own both RGs from previous releases. And so far, the promotional pictures tell the truth about what of their capability and what,s not. We can look at MS-06 for examples, the promotional pics clearly shown that the kit cannot bend their body to the extend to do the kneeling pose just like MG. All I can say, MS06 is way better from the RX78-2 even both kits got same skirt problems.

I still don't think those Aile Strike's pics were taken from PG and MG, maybe we need someone who can read japs to translating it. Too bad my wife's at work, if not I could ask her to translate it for me.

Hope Strike will got better looks in RG treatment with more detailing parts. Just my two cents.

Wow... really? I just order both RG RX78-2 and Zaku. Still considering whether to order RG Aile Strike. But from the look of the preview on RG RX 78 and Zaku, they look great for lazy ppl like me who lazy to do painting, lining... yet still have great detail.

Mine just stay standing without fancy pose. The details on both kits are awesome. Not sure about others, but my RG Zaku's hand is better than RX's that always droppin off, and weapons he (Zaku) holds is firm and nice. The only problem for RG Zaku is his sideskirt. The only pose for my RG zaku is like this:

Agreed, it's a kit, not toys. Because I have much fun playing of RX-78-2 from SCM Banpresto. As for the chrome stickers, I just painted it with bronze color.
Err, it's Aile Strike right? So i think the aile unit is provided as well.

Yo, is Banpresto SCM gundam come with detail decals like RG? I am actually newbie in Gundam, used to collect a few MG and HG but stop it many years ago. I am buying RG because I like the size and detail.

No la, just plain basic color only. here's the album, the only best thing about this is posing. I bet Robot Damashii version (beside the massive accessories given), can't do the pose like SCM does. If you like the decal-ed version, you should pick SHCM Pro version, or Robot damashii's and then put some waterslide decals for 1/144 on it.

Ya. I try once b4 with Robot Damashii on Gundam OO. Some of the parts are quite lose and the figure lacking detail. For a RM120++ figure I expect a bit more detail. Moreover, the size is smaller than HG series. Not even in scale with 1/144.

Anyway, I think I will have a good time with RG series. hehe.

Hey bro, nice Zaku there. Do you apply any panel lining or painting? Or you just cut and assembly?

Yo, a newbie question. How much does a gundam marker for panel lining cost in Malaysia? And where can get it in Penang?
