Setsuna fanboys better avoid the spoiler below. » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « 1) Lack of GN Drive articulation. The PG suffered the same problem although that was partly due to the pre-assembled GN Drives with the rotating gimmick. So yeah, you won't be able to pose it like the HG 1/144 version. 2) Shoulders can't move upwards. The shoulders' inner joints do move upwards, but when you put on the outer armors, it can no longer do so. 3) No sliding gimmick for the GN Shield/Katars. It works the same way as the NG 1/100 and HG 1/144. Detach and reattach. 4) Ball-jointed waist. Pair this with the back-heavyness and you'll have the upper body leaning to the back over time. A linear rod like MG Sinanju's would probably work better. 5) Lamer-looking 0 Raiser. Apart from the details, the NG 1/100 version looks better. And where are the missile pods? 6) The only way the 0 Raiser connects to the Action Base is through the GN Sword III. So that means if your 00 Gundam is holding the GN Sword III, you won't be able to put the 0 Raiser on the Action Base. 7) Extra pairs of hands are always welcome but looking at the connection points, i don't think they'll be able to hold themselves together after several swaps. 8) New construction designs are introduced, mainly in the neck, wrists, elbows and knees. Not really a valid gripe as i don't know how well they perform, but we'll see.

It's more like an observation. I don't mean to throw anyone off into not buying the MG. I'm just informing potential buyers of what to expect from the kit. The flaws can be clearly observed from Dalong's review, but some people just don't take notice until someone points it out. I don't wanna see a few weeks down the road, some forummer buys and assembles one, and later whines about how the 0 Raiser can't be placed on the stand without the GN Sword III or how the wing binders aren't that poseable. I don't want that. You can ask me to "stop acting holier-than-thou" but that's what i really think. QUOTE(Tiger I @ May 30 2011, 11:35 PM) Oh yea, no one is interested in Destiny Gundam Heine Westenfluss Custom uh? At RM180, maybe that is the reason RM180 is just the price for a normal MG Destiny. G-Wing had a few at RM250 yet it still sold out.

It makes me wonder, maybe most of modeller have that Destiny already huh? Haha Or maybe their interest was swayed by other kits kot, LOL Was hoping they'd have the clear MG Gouf 2.0, but nowhere to be seen. ------ Anyone wanna display it like this? It looks kinda weird that the GN Sword III isn't glowing. Bandai should've put LEDs in there too.

Wanted to get MG Delta Plus but i know this is gonna be one flimsy kit, just like MG ReZEL. Most transforming kits are like that.

New Member Newbie 0 posts Joined: Jun 2009 From: the Greek word parodia	Someone from another forum noticed that the LED that came with MG 00R is less bright than the ones that are purchased separately. And also, here's a better translated version of the interview with Bandai. My thoughts are in brackets: » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « QUOTE Q: will the V2 voted #1 in the MG survey come out this year? A: it may seem like the technology for V2 MG is there, but they are not fully ready yet. they don't want to come out with a product that they will regret (seems like MG V Ver Ka is a big disappointment?), so we should not see the V2 MG at least this year. Q: what are we going to see in the future of HGUC? A: the 0083 Federation lineup in HGUC is pretty complete now and we will also have the Zeon suits coming (Gerbera Tetra instead of GP00 or GP04? Meh) . The Dra-C appeared in the Unicorn anime could also be made. dreissen and GMIII related suits in unicorn could also be available later (Dooben-Wolf, Gallus, Gaza-D, Regelg, Gemeaux, or oh-my-God Z II?). Q: at this time how come there are less MG coming out? A: during the current economy down turn the MGs are fairly expensive, so even if we come out with more MGs there is going to be people that can't follow them. whether or not HG will past the 2000 yen avg price also depends on the current economy (hence more RGs). there are no MG for July because we have a lot of products coming out, so there's a lot of issue we have to deal with the development not just Gunpla. we also don't want it to overlap with the release of the RG too much (MGF Kamen Rider seems to be so popular that made them "busy"). Q: isn't 2011 the 15th anniversary for Gundam X? A: "i'm afraid we won't have time this year", we came out with a lot products last year including HGFC G Gundam related products and based on sale last year we will focus on the G series this year. The HGAW Gundam X did not do so bad either and will be in our plan. we will have the G Gundam for HG and W Gundam for MGs because of the manga. it will be tough for us to bring out any Gundam X kit this year, but once the G and W comes to a close we will very likely to start with the X line (more HGs but doesn't confirm any MGs of X or DX). Q: there are PG release every year recently, will there be a PG this year? A: we might and might not, at this moment i cannot tell you. Q: will there be a PG Unicorn? A: say if we set the issue is with the price, the pyscho frame will probably have the glowing gimmick similar to the "1/700 Tokyo sky tree". In order to make the articulation + transformation gimmick perfectly it will probably drive the price pretty high (very impressive that they wanted a glowing psychoframe for Unicorn, complete with transformation capabilities). all the recent PG release are pretty popular because of their anime. people also can't wait for a PG Unicorn, but if we say that there will be one it might lessen the interest and anticipation. The fans of Gundam UC are of a higher age group and we believe they can also afford the higher price. it's not the time for us to take risk from now on and we hope we can have it out before the tax goes up (another price increase soon?). Q: will there be a MG Delta Gundam? A: right now i can only say there is no plan. as for the MG Delta plus in August, the "HyakuShiki 2.0" and "Delta Gundam" could be ideas that's worth paying attention to. If there is a HyakuShiki 2.0, the Delta Gundam is also a possibility. We have a MG Hyaku Shiki next to the MG Delta plus in the display, maybe the Hyaku Shiki 2.0 is in the works?? (so if no MG Hyakushiki 2.0, no MG Delta) A: what about a MG Kshatriya? Q: even if it's the MG we might have to use metal frame to support the binder because of the size, but right now it's not the time to think about it because the economy is still very tough at the moment (PG-priced MG Kshatriya, anyone?).
