good at least it giv us an option to buy it or not rather then force it to be included in the base kit n bloat the price further.

to be honest LED gimmick is just that, a gimmick. How many of us actually keep it light up 24/7? If we turn it on, it'll eventually run out of battery which means we'll hav to take it out replace the battery and put it back in which would lead to either breaking something or scratching the paint eventually not to mention being a big distraction at night. If we put it in n didn't light it up then the battery will eventually leak n make a mess out of it. To those who dun even bother wit it, if it was included in the kit then they would hav spend additional $$$ on something that is not even use. At least if its separate, it giv us an option to choose to get it or not. Those who like it can go ahead n buy it, those who don well u dont hav to spend that additional $$ on the base kit, win-win for both party.

yeah. honestly when I first got my MG 00 Raiser, I was so hyped up I later got myself some extra 4 LED units, which I ended up only used two (the included one is already in the body). the other two was then sold to a friend sweat.gif

So any review of service from gwing-online.com?
*
never bought anything from them, although they do have quite a friendly and responsive CS.

so far my favourite online seller can be found here. very competitive price, and so far never encountered crumpled package whatsoever and all my kits bought from him is in mint condition the time I received them. fast response & delivery, too thumbup.gif

Thanks a lot...very3 informative for prospective online buyer...wondered why got fired b4 when asking the same question rclxub.gif

Since all Seed's main MS has been turned into MG, what's next for Bandai guys...I guess its back to Unicorn
*
I dunno. maybe. there's yet to be another MG for grunt units from the Unicorn series aside from ReZEL. even the Neo-Zeon side only has Sinanju, and that's the Ver. Ka one, not OVA like the Unicorn Gundam itself..

There is no visible differences between Sinanju novel n Sinanju ova so there is no reason to hav 1 unlike Unicorn (however small that differences may be). Look at how successful Sinanju is, if there is a way for milking it i'll bet my entire fortune Bandai would jump on in instantly but after so long there hav no mention or hint of any kind bout Sinanju ver ova, u can bet there will be none in the near future, not like it needs it anyway. Sinanju Stein yeah mayb but ver ova absolutely no reason (justifiable or unjustifiable) to hav 1.

Unicorn grunt will be highly welcome, ill personally buy Dreissen and Rezel with defenser unit. As for next year hopefully Bandai complete the wing custom suits, the existing ew unit is not that far off in design just add some bits here n there and woila..... was waiting for Heavyarms custom. Also for next year since ver ka Nu is coming i bet Sazabi is as well.
*
I believe so too. I was not hoping for ver. OVA of Sinanju, but I was just trying to point out how scarce it is for Neo-Zeon MG kits from UC0096 sweat.gif

and yeah, I am looking forward for Sinanju Stein icon_rolleyes.gif

I was referring more to the anime, but even the model kit line only did okay. Bandai was expecting the AGE line to sell 30% better than the 00 line.

00 is more epic compared to AGE. but that maybe only me laugh.gif

doesn't matter, had my MG AGE-2 whistling.gif

hope Bandai dun discontinue Age after MG Darkhound. Age 3 Orbital despite its limited screen time was awesome n i was looking forward to getting it in MG, but i had a strange feeling that we will never see any more new Age MG after this. Hope my feeling is wrong.

AGE-2 Normal is by far my favourite suit from AGE series, followed closely by AGE-3 Fortress laugh.gif

I've been longing for Arbalest's kit since the first time I've seen it in FullMetal Panic, but seems like it's no longer in production nowadays. the closest I've come to is from the D-Style series by Kotobukiya (seen a few in GA a couple of months back) but I don't really fancy super deformed models sad.gif
