Perhaps Sazabi would follow the path of Nu, a titanium release in December (one year after normal release).

Indeed!
we already have sinanju & nu ver ka titanium so far .

Its done to coincide with nightingale, back to back release to boost sales.

Hi nu is not very detailed (at least by new ver ka standards anyway). Clearly this is not because they cant do it as evident by nu n sazabi, my guess is that bandai already had in mind for ppl to pose nightingale and hi nu together and they dont want 1 kit to completely out class the other in terms of aesthetics to avoid looking out of place. With that in mind, it isnt too far fetch to suggest that bandai had planned all along to release both kit back to back to boost sales n maximizing profit off of fans of Beltorchika's Children and or Amuro/Char fanbois.

As for why its not tandem nov/dec instead of aug/sept that we do not know. With 2 new gundam anime airing soon one of them could be made into dec kit, or it could be an even more ridiculously big n expensive kit yet to be announce. We will know soon enough.

You're right...that's one of the things I noticed also. The Hi-nu ver ka certainly lacks the details of a ver-ka. I thought it'd be something similar to the Nu. unless of course the Nu and Sazabi are the exceptions

am i the only one that thinks the unicorn titanium finish is crap? somehow the "titanium" finish doesnt really come out compared to the nu ver ka or even sinanju red titanium.

The unicorn really lacked details.. when he's titaniun he's still basically one color
Nu had a lot of parts separation to make all kinds of colors pop, as well as better titanium finish surface
Sinanju is.. well.. red.. titanium red is always sexy

i mean...the dark blue (or whatever you call it) finishing was just really not popping out. The finishing is not like the darker parts of the nu ver ka at all ( at least from what i can see from HLJ youtube review )

By any chance that the 1/100 Full Armor Unicorn Gundam would be release in OVA version since the Sinanju and the Unicorn was release in ver KA and followed with the release in the OVA version?

AFAIK the only differences between OVA and ver ka unicorn is the head vulcans and the added knee bend
The head vulcans i dont really care for since they're neglectably small
Extra knee bend? FAU isnt going to do more than just standing there whistling.gif
Sinanju had the bazooka.. what would FAU get? Take out the beam javelin? (Remember he never used the javelin in the show IIRC) laugh.gif

There is no discernible difference between the 2. The OVA ver was release to fix the knee bend flaws of the original ver ka, the rest r just minor aesthetics. FAU already includes the knee fix so there is no reason to have another version of FAU, besides if u wan OVA version well just remove the javalin and woila. Unless of course u r very particular about anime accuracy and the missing tiny vulcan drives u nuts.

Correction: FAU ver ka already includes the knee bend fix. Its missing the head vulcan and fix open/close horn v fin.

I see.. i neglected to notice the knee bend is alrdy incorporated since FAU does little more than just stand there whistling.gif

The paint is not solid, it is glossy. Which means it reflects light better. Just google gloss-coated gunpla and compare it to the popular flat-coated gunpla (the same kit) for comparison.
