actually..

size difference between a smaller mg i.e crossbone, victory, or wing kits are not very much bigger than a hg, and they still have full frames around them.

also, if you're seriously spanking good, a set frame or not will not really deter you from making mods. if that prevented people, then we wouldn't see rg mods around mah right? but there are. not many, but still got. and besides, the oob builder is the majority of the buyers out there. that's why bandai keeps making re-colors. things like gunpla builder kits, and expo kits come to mind in this circumstance. and they get snapped up in an instant! and if you are committed to do a custom job, nothing in the world will stop you from getting that kit, regardless of color, articulation, etc etc. if the person doesn't like something, he will just mod it.

IMO, bandai is going into expanding their customer base. so they would want to introduce things like better color separation, improved articulation, and fancy gimmicks of the like. the current fan base will buy, regardless of what comes out.. and in the end, their main target market is japanese.. as long as the japanese market is happy, all is well.

yes true, small MG exist that r along the line of HG size and tey hav separate innerframe but is it any good? Victory is notorious for being flimsy, to the point where Bandai decided to put V2 on hold. Surely u don want a flimsy RG? i kno i dun. Crossbone same issue.

yes if a person dun like it he will mod it this statement is true but what im saying is single frame system hindered it somewhat. When u r proposing for an advancement u will ofcuz state ur case on how much more improve it is over the previous 1 am i right? Improvement over 1 area while hindering another is not really an improvement at all. Its just give an take, so what improvement does single frame gives that made it superior over separate self build frame? If u hav a car that is fast and reliable, u hav a new method to make a car even faster yet it became unreliable is this an improvement in general?

yes Bandai is expending their cust base, tey always were. However there already exist stuff that caters to such cust. U wan simplicity ok we hav HG. U wan small size and yet retain complexity we hav RG, u wan complexity and detailness regardless of size u hav PG, u wan in between u hav MG. Altering a line to suite customer is basically shooting ownself in the foot, and tey already does to a certain extend with regards to MG and PG, tey r so similar that in some model the MG is superior to the PG. We do not wan this to happen with regards to RG and MG, both line hav its own value, both line has its own customer base. Making 1 so similar to another just further dilute 1 line in favor of other.

i agree with that but for me it's just the degree of improvement. there is no pure improvement (which is without disadvantages) at this point of advancement in gunpla development.
RG is a breakthrough at the same scale as HG/HGUC. but is it purely advantage over the HG/HGUC line?
RG justice for one, cannot even stand on it's feet (no matter how u bend the legs) on the usual standing configuration.
HGSEED justice can stand. but which one would you prefer, or generally more modellers will choose/buy?

it might not be foresee'd by bandai officials but they still went on & bring up RG line. it could be the same thing as this whole "revolutionalizing the MG" trend.

GundamGuy had a readable translation up.

No mention of RG whatsoever. What it talks about is nu ver ka sliding armor gimmick showed off the new technology and potential of Gunpla. New 3.0 is made consolidating all these improvement, improving articulation and offers more range of movement.

Ok this is what i think it is, we all know some kits hav bad articulation but not bcuz of the joint but bcuz of armor design. Case in point the new Jesta, the knee hav good articulation actually but the calf armor is hindering it, to overcome this Jesta uses a sliding mechanism to give the joint more space to move around with. Same thing with most shoulder, nu ver ka overcame this by pulling the shoulder out giving more space to swing forward (awkwardly yes but it does the job). This is probably what they meant since tey emphasize and repeat the term articulation in almost every sentences.

So all these single frame is probably not gonna happen, rendering our discussion moot.

not really. Bandai dun really hav a pattern when it comes to announcing kits. Some 2/3 months away only announce, some way b4 already announce.

for example tey announces Age FX and Age 3 last year, dun remenber when but definitely at the same time when nu, tallgeese, stein and jesta was announce and projected to be release this year (assuming that has not been canceled already sweat.gif ). So assuming sazabi is a december release thats like 7 months away, about the same time span projected for Age FX and Age 3.
