QUOTE(General_Nic @ Sep 3 2013, 02:05 AM) have you guys noticed something strange? assuming Sazabi Ver. Ka is due to release in December, there isn't any MG announced for November slot yet unless I missed out something? We're not getting one. The closest you'll get is RG Strike Freedom. Besides, between October being Proto Zero and December being Sazabi, your wallet will be thankful for the small break.

http://gundamguy.blogspot.ca/2013/09/gunda...-unit-high.htmlI ordered one of each of these. Can't resist rare kits from Gundam Wing.

QUOTE(Flame Haze @ Sep 10 2013, 02:54 PM) Hi guys, new here. I've just started collecting gundams, and I just want to ask a few questions. What's the difference in details between MG and MB? Are they roughly the same? Metal Build are not model kits, they're 1/100 scale action figures with metal in them(and also cost 200 dollars). Don't rely on Metal Build to replace Master Grade.

QUOTE(Flame Haze @ Sep 10 2013, 03:02 PM) Hmmm, but that doesn't reply my question. Which one is more detailed? I'm planning to collect MBs, and build up a few PGs. Metal Build has more detail, but the significantly increased price isn't worth it.

QUOTE(Tiger I @ Sep 13 2013, 11:01 PM) big zam is awesome wokay  Nobody is saying that Big Zam isn't awesome, but I don't think anyone would want Big Zam to become the "norm" for Gundam design. Zam and the other Mobile Armors work because they're basically giant monsters that our "human" heroes(Gundams) have to defeat despite being at a huge disadvantage.

QUOTE(HxiiiK @ Sep 16 2013, 08:38 AM) i think they might boost sales if they use this as the box art instead of the current boring one  » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « That would also involve a 2.0 Freedom Gundam, since that's WAY more detailed than the current model.

It would look cool if it wasn't the HG Freedom. If I want those two songs that badly, i'll just download them off the internet and not have to buy a shitty model.

I appreciated Turn A more once I built the Master Grade of it.
As for Master Grade kits that are long overdue, i'm gonna throw out that there needs to be more lead villain suits. MG Turn X I think is long overdue and would be an awesome mobile suit to get the MG treatment. We definitely also need a MG Reborns Gundam. For as garbage as AGE is, I would still not say no to a MG Legilis Gundam, cause I do appreciate its unique design.

I got 1,3,4, and 5. I still want Ex-S, Puke Freedom can f*** off, never cared about the Dom, and after spending 400+ dollars on that metal-in-frame RX-78-2, i've got no intentions of buying another.

QUOTE(HxiiiK @ Sep 23 2013, 12:10 AM) love the battle damage on the shield, though i think it might do with one more.. poor lonely bullet hole  I considered it, but between the large hole and the sliced-off chunk, along with all the other small dings, I'm satisfied with the result. It'll be the centerpiece of my entertainment center/living room.

I'm surprised it took this long to come out. Bandai never failing to milk Destiny for all it's worth. Also, clear RG Zeta? REALLY? The original wasn't fragile enough as it is? At least the Astray mold never ceases to be amusing. Lowe is just a 1/1 scale Gunpla builder. This post has been edited by TaurusOxford: Sep 23 2013, 11:57 PM

QUOTE(sphiroth @ Sep 24 2013, 05:42 AM) I think people already sick of all the milking of seed and destiny series, thus proto wing offers a fresher option. Inm, bandai will come up with remastered wing series on BD right? I assume by BD you meant BF, as in Build Fighters? It's definitely possible. Let's just hope that HGAC Wing isn't a one-off and we get a true HGAC line.
