Is there any reason for the shoulders to open up? Maintenance? Or to make the model look cool? hmm.gif

Been wondering if gunpla is moving away from sensibility to a purely 'makes the model kit look good' - i.e. we are not building model kits of robots, but instead watching shows of model kits turned into anime. laugh.gif

A good case in point would be DW:G3 that i mentioned before. If you look properly, the gundams there even have that horizontal bit under their skirt where we attach the leg pegs!

So, are you saying the equivalent of RX-78 in PG form with opening panels is just for show? sweat.gif

but PG RX-78 shoulder armors opens in a different way.

PG's more towards maintenance orientated, i.e. outer armor separates from inner frame. Whereas the one nazrul posted is more like Strike's shoulder armor (of which opened to fit with parts from launcher and sword).

The idea should be the same. Most likely the way it opens was due to size limitation.

Grabbed my MG Delta+. Got the card with number in it for the lucky draw.

Anyone still got the direct link to the site where I can punch in the numbers? The card only stated en.gundam.info.

There's a sticker on the front of the box that states the box of Gundam is within the contest period. Do you have that sticker? There are Gundam.info printed on the sides of the box as well.

Damn, dunno where's my card now. Hope it wasn't taken by my housemate's son and lost!

And thanks for the link. biggrin.gif

Oh... sorry to hear that. sad.gif

Anyway, I got mine from Gamers Arena. They helped me transfer the stock to Toyz N Hobbyz, so I can pick it up from e@Curve.

Not the cheapest price, but excellent service and friendly staff who called me. thumbup.gif

[s]Jegan[s]Jesta looks nice and the colour quite matching with Delta+. Are they from the same anime/century?

Might get the MG to pair with Delta+, if it's being released. biggrin.gif
