EEEWWWW... yucks... now u have to wear sticky pants for the whole day.

If iI'm not mistaken, there was a pic before showing the grand slam as an uncolored item. But I might be wrong. My guess is the whole thing would be made from plastic but maybe have a shiny blade part.

Custom stand... hm... let's see what custom stand SF will give us. Very unlikely it would be a launchpad, maybe one with extra wires for the dragoons... That's my guess.

But 2200 yen extra for bling bling? Ha! You're having a laugh! It'd be much more economical to buy gold paint and spray the exposed joints.

From the pics, it looks like it is using the proportions of theMG SF, with the SF wings and few addons, like the tummy cannon and shorter railguns.

Meh... still not diggin' it. I am waiting for MG V2 If BANDAI ever releases it that is. Oh yeah, and if there is ever an MG Tallgeese, that would be one of the sweetest things ever. Tallgeese's design rocks!!

I still prefer the normal white F91, even though normally I like blue mechas more (eg Titans versions). The Harrison Madin version has a lighter coat of blue, and I feel that the white V-fin with the white feet are turn-offs. If there is a Titans version of the F91 that'd be great, although the Titans have already been wiped out in the era of F91.

Maybe F91 with the color of the X2 Crossbone... dark blue with purple....

So many kits coming out before the freezing winter in Japan... But still no signs or news of MG V2

It seems that you have to paint the gold circuit lines yourself and the green beam rings are quite cheesy looking


more more more more more pics!!

Like I predicted, the grand slam is made of plastic, dull white plastic!! Not unlike the red frame's katana. What a turn off... In addition, there's no launchpad, only a Destiny-like stand. Better than nothing I suppose.

Besides, the small steel swords of the IWSP pack are also made from the same meh white plastic...

Enjoy painting them silver!!

Nevertheless, look at the amount of parts!! Cool...

^ just buy any silver paint or marker?

Anyway, more pics... The more I look at the MG SF, the less impressive it appears to me.

Poo-colored joints... For god's sake, if BANDAI really wants to make golden bling bling for SF, by all means use chrome plated materials, like Hyaku Shiki or Amatu...

I'll give this one a miss...

BENDI !! what have you done to my beloved MKII?? dang... the website is even copied from dalong.net

Well, for a 3500yen kit, RM116 is a very good price. Any lower it'd be too good to be true

If you can get it at 116, grab it at once!!

The sexy transformer wannabe is out now...

The head is dropdead gorgeous! Although the central white camera is a tad too thick, meh... a little sanding and filing would do much good.

MG-like proportions, and nothing crappy like the tiny head and anorexic legs of the IJ... Best ever 1/100 kit

If only it was an MG...

http://www.geocities.jp/lifezoids/seedD100-14.htm
more more more!!

looks like the central head camera is really made of clear blue plastic...

V2... please... Just one "simple" V2 will do...

As for the GX, that's made from the MG Freedom frame if I'm not mistaken. I suppose bandai would probably release the more popular DX. It's only logical that they release a more popular mecha MG, like the V2, instead of the normal Victory type.

By the way, the GFF GX artwork looks very Katoki... is it done by him?

Nice F91... but where are the red F91 decals on the shoulder blades? Makes me want to grab one as well... but pokai adi No... must resist the temptation... must... wait... for...V...V2 !!

Lastly...
By the powers combined.... I AM CAPTAIN PLANET !!

My bad.. didnt notice the small print up there

lineart of MG SF.... not really that interesting... the stand looks really weird, are the dragoons supposed to be fitted on the bottom? I think there might be wires like F91's Rafflesia stand... not sure though, and not really that enthusiatic

^OMG... that hurts...

More buzzsaws protruding out from the petals would be even sweeter!! But the pinkish hue is not menacing enough... make it scarlet... bloody red !!

Haven't heard of that... Maybe it's recent news? Not sure though.

But even if they came out with that, it's not advisable to get them. HG 1/144's SF is really crappy, while the Destiny is just a scaled down 1/100 with beam wings. The 1/100 IJ and Legend are far superior to the 1/144.

DIY stand... depending on the design that you have in mind, the costs will vary. If you just want a simple stand, a RM 1 clothes hanger will do...

Or maybe you want to add a solid heavy base, and use thicker wires or bars, that will cost you more money and effort. Like that might as well buy one. Unless you plan to customise it with little diorama effects.

For the beam wings, you sacrifice correctly colored parts and a larger model. So it depends on what you want The 1/144 Destiny is really puny and skinny in size, so personally I don't think building it would be that fun compared to building a 1/100. Of course, there are still a lot of people who would prefer 1/144s due to their price and easier storage.

The only 1/144s worth getting are the more recent HGUCs... even earlier HGUCs have very limited articulation and parts. But the recent ones are simply

Meh... get MGs now... Not even the sweet Saviour is that attractive nowadays.

I like the design of the Saviour, but will not buy it because it is only a 1/100

Try making the female part deeper by slowly cutting or filing the hole...

Hm... it seems like the Crossbone has quite some problems...

http://old.rfdh.com/1026/seed/d14/d14_i.htm

honestly... it's too skinny... B-Craft's designs are "malnourished"...

I feel that the bulkier torso and legs of the 1/144 are better looking. The 1/100's cannons are too gigantic The joints will become loose in no time, like my 2nd L's huge backpack.

http://toycan.net/gallery/gundam/gff/34/index.html

Hey, the Barzam's legs are better-looking than the MKII's... maybe can change But groin cannon looks really cheesy...

rifle with built in bazooka looks menacing too

http://www.hkedcity.net/sch_files/a/awc/aw...0261/CARCAR.swf

TRANSFORMERS... ROBOTS IN DISGUISE...

Autobots got themselves a new ally!! The Titans...

Now... the next thing to do is to get an AEUG MKII ver 2.0 to complete the look!! The ver1.0's proportions are WAYYYYY out...

By the way... nice MGs... must have costed you hell lots of $$$$.... 155 for IWSP is acceptable, but 150 for SF? Why didn't you wait for MG SF?
edit: oops.... saw ur reply adi... faster than mine

Oh ya it seems that the Zeta is able to hold the gigantic cannon properly... good joints for the arms and hands I suppose.



Personal preference... FAZZ is huge... extremely huge (and expensive). Strike IWSP should be cheaper, and you get quite an extensive load of gimmicks and parts.

I would choose IWSP because it is a newer model, hence the technology involved in making the parts would be better. Better designed parts allow wider range of articulations too. FAZZ would be too bulky for posing, and the gigantic cannon is even larger than the model itself

Ah.... buy both

To know the price, just take the yen and convert it to RM. With the price war going on, it seems like Graffiti is selling everything at the lowest price, although there isn't much variety there. Fantasy Toys at LY plaza has a lot of different models, but the price fluctuates quite a lot. My Justice and MKII were bought there at a quite high price compared to Graffiti.

Strike IWSP is around 4K+ yen... so RM 165 is a bit high. Maybe wait for a while for bulk sales here:P

Madin F91 is just a recolor, don't think there'll be much improvement anyway. Maybe some slight changes like the AEUG and Titans MKII. Personally I prefer colored mechas over white ones, but the white V-fin is really a turn off. Meh...

Glory system's website isn't really informative as other shops' though... Might as well call Aunty up or simply drop by and ask her in person. Her prices also fluctuates a lot, like Fantasy Toys'.
