if u r a newbie (as in completely new to model kit building), i'll advise u to avoid RG for now. Its cheaper then most MG but also more fragile and alot of small parts + alot of work on detailing, if ur not use to handling those parts it'll break eventually.

just go for basic MG that r not too expensive and not too complicated. Avoid all transformable suits due to the way its made alot of them r fragile and complicated, exception could be made for Epyon cuz tat transformation is basically yoga style thus its rigidity is not compromise by much.

i'll recommend zaku 2.0 (there is alot of version but just stick to basic j type), Strike (if u dun mind its dated design in comparison to the new GAT series) and RX-78 2.0

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.

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.

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.

In universe no explanation given. I guess u can say its to fire his lazer-of-doom but then again why dun tey just put that function into a bfg not to mention it really cant fly well from a logical standpoint, has the same aerodynamic properties of a brick.

Bandai explanation is "to look cool"

cuz:

1. ascetically, its better looking then 90% of all ms from destiny but that isn't saying much. Its like saying syphilis is better then brain tumor.
2. scene wise, all it does is pew-pew some lazer -> transform -> fly away. It also doesn't help that most of its scene is recycled animation.
3. there are more deserving kit to be in MG then savior.
4. when we talk bout a series we tend to assign an image to it, if we talk bout wing, wing zero will be the 1st thing on our mind, 00 with exia 00 raiser quanta, seed with strike, freedom, etc. Only when ppl mention the other design will we rember it and savior fall into this category. Its an unfortunate side effect when a series is riddle with a zillion gundam and only the most standout/airtime design remains vividly in our mind.
5. traditionally, Bandai avoided doing anything other then the main chars (which Arthrun clearly isn't) ms from AU unless its highly popular. Only recently did Bandai start doing all ms from a series starting with wing. The success of wing ew kit gave rise to the seed line, if the trend continue we might get destiny line in 2 years time to coincide with it's 10th anniversary and mayb even 00 line. Atm anything other then Unicorn n AGE is not on Bandai exec's mind so your wish may still be granted 2 years from now but atm no.
