as for MG Tallgeese, someone mentioned earlier it's having the Tallgeese III face instead of the original TV Tallgeese I camera face like Leo
base on this photo I'm thinkin you may have an option to use either, since the Leo camera face is just right inside

judging on how the current market is, Zeta Plus A1&C1 wouldn't be profitable coz even the Z Plus shared the similar transformation mechanism, there some parts that are different, mainly the wing binders and the side skirt armors, plus they still need to make several new molds to make the external panels. as per "web exclusive" means that it'll only be made into a small batch, which also raised the cost and also selling price.

this, however, might have a chance brows.gif

those ""EXCLUSIVE" items are sometimes jz milking their mould as all of them are the same mould with normal version..for us maybe its harder to repaint the normal version to exclusive color scheme but for them they are jz changing their plastic material color which cost them extremely little
thats how they find $$$ mad.gif
the most pro thing can be seen from them is the aile strike gundam without the aile striker LOL
double price but less items and exactly the same color even whistling.gif

laugh.gif what do you expect bro, those online exclusive are targeted towards the japan fan-base and they dont provide shipment outside of japan
that is why it is more expensive since need to go through 3rd person


as for the White Unicorn Zeta wub.gif wub.gif
price double also I dont care if they do released it (still below 200) since the MG version is too expensive for me nowadays and I dont intend to learn painting anytime soon yet

The complain was the eye slit rather then the face if im not mistaken, the face between the 3 geese are vastly different and the MG clearly had the geese1 face. The MG eye slit seems to hav that angular shape in the middle like gundam (from pic its abit hard to c but it does look like it has that angular look) where as the tv version the slit is straight like x-men cyclops. But its easily fix imho, just sand the top part of the face plate and woila.

IMO the Zeta 3 has a better chance of being released if Bandai ever wanted to milk the RG Zeta by changing its colour scheme, since UC era ain't got no "Phase Shift Armor down" or "Deactivate Mode" kinda stuff laugh.gif

I'll post pictures of the inner frame as soon as I get it assembled smile.gif


Added on October 16, 2012, 1:47 amReview Part 1: 1/100 RX-78-2 ver. GP30th 945SHG - Inner Frame(legs)

Front shot: http://i.imgur.com/ByW1Il.jpg
Side shot: http://i.imgur.com/OR59Rl.jpg
Back shot: http://i.imgur.com/8YhBMl.jpg

http://i.imgur.com/ZYWfUl.jpg - showing off the detail in the feet here. One of them has already been panel lined with some detail added to the thrusters.

http://i.imgur.com/vMHRsl.jpg - Can do the full splits, but the joint is a little weak and the leg will droop due to its own weight.

http://i.imgur.com/xIse5l.jpg
http://i.imgur.com/gy75Wl.jpg - Front and back however, the joint is very strong and can easily support the weight of the leg.

http://i.imgur.com/5aug0l.jpg - it's not 00 Raiser, but the RX-78-2 is still no slouch at limbo

http://i.imgur.com/nWxFIl.jpg - A very respectable distance between the feet and still flat on both feet.

http://i.imgur.com/J6KZGl.jpg - A very nice knee bend, and the knee joint can easily support it.

http://i.imgur.com/wNToPl.jpg - Finally, a good amount of ankle articulation.

Overall, quite impressed so far. You're basically unlimited in whatever pose you want to put the legs in, and the metal is quite heavy and greatly increases the stability of the kit if you choose to have him standing without an action base.

I think the frustration of applying ALL the decals on an RG would much or less similar to those on Ver. Ka sweat.gif
