QUOTE(skeithskeith @ Jul 21 2014, 01:03 PM) Speaking of which..On a not really related topic. My 17 years old cousin cannot even imagine how to assemble these "insanely" (according to him) sophisticated Gunpla. He asked, what if you cannot figure out how to do it? What if you did it wrong? With all due respect, I really think kids this gen are playing a little too much of video games. A little handcraft and skills will be healthy for them. I know I will share the love of Gunpla with my kids in the future. I am going to start with SD Hi Nu Gundam. TBH i feel all 'creating' hobbies are good. Lego, gunpla, transformers etc. Just that due to the nature of the licenses etc, they're quite expensive. Inb4 video games also got benefits i.e. driving etc.

QUOTE(TheAdmiral @ Aug 8 2014, 12:49 AM) 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
