I think what he meant is, he asked advise for the detailing of his kit, not the names sweat.gif

Well, I think he also want to test us whether we know those models or not... If we don't know, I think he will be happy because he already know their names and we not... Kind of show off perhaps. doh.gif

Do you know the existence of Google? Use it will be faster than you waiting other forumers to post here... sweat.gif
Or just go to dalong, good luck!

Btw, Nu Ver.Ka nice or not as in posing and articulation? I saw dalong rated it 120pts if I'm right.

the funnel is floopy. The connection is too small to bear its weight. I glue it in place since i dun plan to pose it deploy mode.
the hand while extremely articulated the wrist part is week. Even with its normal rifle (not too big nor too heavy imho) it tends to drop which is why i snug it under the shoulder armor.
the shield connector is loose, very easy to fall off from the arm.
the piston on he knee if u bend the knee too much it'll pop out.
the off white color is not too big of a difference then normal white, under certain lighting condition u wont even notice it. Not too mention some of them r stickers too. Which i why i painted it, to giv it a bigger offset and dun hav to worry it peeling off in the future.

other then that the whole thing is great. The frame is light and flexible which is great since we're bending it to get into the poses we want, it'll have more leeway b4 breaking or stressing. Due to the weight of the frame, the overall weight of the kit is also light which gives it a good balance. The arm offers great articulation, u can pull it forward quite abit more then normal, although doing this will expose alot of the frame which will look weird looking from behind or from the side. Stand connection is solid, its not gonna fall off even if u turn it upside down. U can basically pose it however u like no matter how ridiculous it is but to maximize it u hav to take the funnel off. The funnel is a big liability.

Overall its a great improvement to the MG line. The frame in particular is so good im not surprise if future MG all uses this same material. T1 already has and the up coming Stein and Sinanju OVA will also hav em. I wonder if RG will also uses em...

Thanks for the great info. smile.gif
After read yours and other people's comments of Nu Ver.Ka, all the negative sides of it already overcome by positive sides. And connector problem can be fix with the method your guys mentioned before. So overall I think it is a great kit that I shouldn't miss out! drool.gif

Some friendly advice bro, if you need to see what a model looks like, try looking up dalong.net. It's in Korean but he has all the models you could ever imagine. The way you're asking people here is sure to piss some people off smile.gif
*
I even gave him link to dalong.net, he still keep asking. sweat.gif

limyuyang, please click here dalong...
And Destiny is EBM (Extreme Blast Mode), Strike Freedom is FBM (Full Burst Mode).

if you watched Seed Destiny or saw Mg Destiny EBM, Destiny is famous for the beam or so called Wing of Light emitting from it's wings

most probably they might include it in RG

Maybe sell separately like Freedom and Justice effect parts. tongue.gif

Did RG Justice have an effect part? I remember RG Freedom had the beam cannon effects for it, but I don't recall ever seeing for Justice

LOL I think wrong... Actually is RG Freedom effect part, HG remastered series Blitz, Aegis, Duel, Buster, Aile Strike and Mobile Ginn.
Sorry for wrong information.

Any Titanium finish, gold plated, chrome plated is hell for me. Cleaning the nubs is PITA and you will cry when you accidentally scratch on it.

RG Destiny is fine for me. Maybe young generation like slim feet, so the RG one is considered fat for them. Anyway RG details surely beat MG badly. tongue.gif

When that MG was release/develop the trend was simple and clean, literary everything was plain even when there is ample of space to cram in details and panel lines. Its not as if the tech at that time could not do it, it was deliberately left plain cuz ppl at that time like it. Dun hold that against it, it was a product of its time.

Ofcuz its more detailed now, its the trend so why r u surprise? If it was the opposite then u'll have a reason to be surprise, or worth mentioning.......
*
Yup it was a trend on that time that older MG less details, I do know that. tongue.gif
And I am not surprise with the details on new released RG. Because now days people like more details and panel lines, they will scribe their or panel lines, adding pla-plate on plain HG/MG kits. Today trend is highly details, so Bandai release RG line to fit the market needs.
Good point you have there, if it was the opposite then I do have a lot of reason to be surprise, maybe I won't look at it at all. smile.gif

speaking of design or model, i hav different taste,
where pilot character factor does influence me which kit to buy

for example:
as for Destiny, it is a great gundam n i sort of like it, but i dont like emo Shin, so its somehow holds me back to buy the kits sweat.gif
*
I like your statement! rclxms.gif Shin is crap, a crybaby....
I usually buy Gundam depends on it's appearance, but watching the series do influence me to get their models. I watched Seed and 00, and most of my collections based on these series. UC Gundam was great in appearance as in my taste, I will keep increase UC Gundam collections tongue.gif

00 is the first series I watched from start to finish but I dislike the mecha design. Don't own any kit from that series. I've always prefered the UC design mechas. Somehow they feel more 'mechanical'.
*
I bought it when I just finished the 00 series, now look back at those gundam no feeling at all. But MG 00 Raiser quite nice, Exia Ignition Mode just left in my display rack and didn't touch or clean it for half year. laugh.gif
UC design look powerful. Bandai, give me MG Jesta Canon!

Around 0.033-0.034. I saw many items still 0.04... Now really need to stop buying from local shops for a while, until they update item price follow the current yen rate.
