Yes... in fact she opened the shop just for fun tongue.gif My friend asked her once about it, and she said she treats her toys like a collection rather than goods for trading.. haha... Long time never go to her place and see gundam adi...

aside from color scheme and decal differences, the harrison F91 have a extra hand piece cover part sorta like the destiny and SF design.

also it dun come with any stand. so it is 200yen cheaper then the white F91.


No bunga stand? What a turn off doh.gif

^ 8K yen... might as well get a gigantic Sazabi whistling.gif biggrin.gif

Seriously, it's only a normal MG WZC with bling bling colors and nothing additional. Do you think it's worth paying more than 2 times the original price? I don't, but again, it's all personal preference.

I'd rather buy a normal 3900 yen WZC and spray shiny coating on it to get similar effects.

Speaking of which... is the latest issue of Taiwan Dengeki Hobby released? Can't seem to find it in any bookshops...

Gundam HK website says the upcoming F91 MG model DO NOT use polycaps! is this better or not ?
*
Dunno whether it's a good thing or a bad thing. Polycaps will go out of shape if the moving parts are moved often. But even for a non-polycap part, friction between moving parts will also make the joints loose, just like what happened to my 2nd L's backpack... Played with it too much and now the 2 big wings are very loose and hard to pose anymore.

So the Dengeki Sept is out. Wat interesting content does it include this time?

Simple tutorial on how to let your F91 ooze more sex appeal wub.gif

Loads of sneak peeks on the upcoming HCM Pro models of Char's Counterattack... the Sazabi is sleek, real sleek instead of bulky.

But the Hazel beam rifle is a turn off... it's tiny, no, puny... shakehead.gif But it's very intricately made.

Not to mention the joints will get loose if you're often playing with its transformation.  sweat.gif  That's why I don't really like models that transforms although they look cool.  doh.gif

This calls for an MG AEGIS !! It'd be super duper cool to have an MG Aegis... screw all those Freedom and Strike variants... Give us some groundbreaking designs !! Give us MG AEGIS !!

Anyway... secret's out... MG SF Special Edition is going to have more bling...

anybody watching the gundam seed stargazer series??how come the 3rd episode havent come out yet??its already so long since the 2nd episode...anyone hav news on this?
*
Come out adi loh... but the one that I watched last month had Chinese subs...

QUOTE(300078 @ Nov 9 2006, 05:43 PM)
I watch it about a month ago that is with subtitle.
No much anyway, just get to c the Stargazer fantastic weapon onli (somehow i feel it was going to kick SF and Destiny a** badly if it came out in the GSD series).
But overall still the Z gundam Movie 3 better! Fighting Scene from start to end. After watching that i got 2 HGUC kits from Zeta Series.
*
The revolving green beams were powerful weapons, but it is still a weird design. It seems more like a defensive apparatus more than an offensive one, cutting whoever that comes too close.

The HG model looks good, although the bundled green beams look cartoonish.

Anyway... get 2 MG kits from Zeta mah....

epsilon:
too many pages for scalations, lazy tongue.gif... but i found this and it is the from the Jap version... so there you go for the pics...

ermm...i'm supposed the 1st MG SF u r talking about is the 1/100 SF (HG). That 1, only HG, so dun hv bling bling joints and d Dragoon system r not detachable.
The coming MG SF in december is the 1st MG for Strike Freedom...n yes, d Joints hv bling bling, n da DRAGOON system can b detach  wink.gif
*
I thought you could remove the dragoons from the 1/100 SF by sliding them out of the socket... Not sure though...

Bah... who cares... 1/100 SF is the most horribly proportioned mecha in the whole SEED series... even worse than the old GW and GX series.. doh.gif

MG SF has poo-colored joints too? doh.gif

for some reason it dosent look as large and grand as the box art =| probably getting one since the wings look really nice =)
*
GW mechas are much smaller compared to UC (except GV, F91, and crossbone) and CE. After all, they are only 16m tall... My friend's WZC looks puny beside his Freedom. His Blaze ZAKU is even larger in size.

QUOTE(Jckk @ Nov 12 2006, 06:33 PM)
have u seen 1/100 providence? lol
*
Of course, and I must say the 1/100 Providence is much better proportioned than the horrible SF. In fact, I prefer it even to the Legend, although it's obvious that the Legend has much better articulations. The Providence is very bulky, hence giving it the baddie boss look, while the Legend looks like a stick thin fella carrying a shell on its back. I really love the big bazooka-like beam cannon of the Prov.

Having said that, the 1/100 Legend is the best GSD 1/100 though...

I've two friends who were staying together in the same apartment while in Bkt Jalil. One has the 1/100 SF and the other has the Prov... And the Prov pwns the SF hands down especially when you put them side by side.

one part I prefer much more to the Strike Freedom is the arms. SF's "shield generator" on the arm make its more better looking than Freedom's arms.

The arms... To me they look as if two plastic trays are stuck onto it... tongue.gif I prefer the Destiny's gauntlets.

QUOTE(jhcj @ Nov 18 2006, 10:47 AM)
Woooo I'm diggin the SF myself. What's wrong with the proportions? I think it's just right. biggrin.gif
*
Proportion a bit off, it seems too tall and thin like the 1/100 IJ, yet it lacks the sleekness of the MG Freedom. I hope it's the angle of the shot that's causing this problem, coz from the real life pics shown some time ago, it looked great.

not sure... but gundambase pictures are often painted and panel lined.... Remember there was one pic that I posted regarding the poo-colored joints of the SF model shown in one toy fair? I think that is more probable. Bling will come with the special edition.

Don't think so... Might not be possible, at least in the near future. SF is out... Next one should be MG Destiny (Or at least Impulse, which I doubt).... Of course, that is if they decide to produce anything that is not piloted by Kira dry.gif

Hi-Nu news is a welcoming one, although I am not a big fan of the design... Prefer Nu... But the Harrison Madin F91 is really sweet... I thought it might be cheesy light blue, but it seems similar to the Titans colours... But still, white V fins??? A bit turn off... maybe custom paint it tongue.gif

Those parts which is in grey color should be the mod / additional part for Crossbone
luckily I didn't buy MG Crossbone yet
I nearly bought it last week  sweat.gif

Bandai is getting more evil on MG Kits
Strike -> Strike IWSP
F91 -> F91 Harrison Madin
Crossbone -> Crossbone Full Cross
sweat.gif  sweat.gif  sweat.gif

I wouldn't say BANDAI is that evil.... yet, although they do have bad thoughts to tempt us with goodies whistling.gif biggrin.gif The Strike was a 2003 release, so after 3 years, it's quite acceptable to release an IWSP pack. Although I would prefer them to release a full conversion pack containing all Striker packs instead of making a new mecha. Just the backpacks will do.

Harison Madin F91 lacks the bunga stand, so not much complaints about it. It's just like the case with the MKIIs... My only hope is that they will add in little refinements to the Harrison F91... Maybe rectify some existing problems perhaps...

Crossbone.... Hm... that's really evil.... It's only been released for say, 2 months? And a new kit/addon coming out? Haha.... Evil BANDAI...

QUOTE(Fasap @ Nov 23 2006, 02:59 PM)
Another update from the land of the rising gundams... an 1/144 HG Seed BuCUE Hound slated for a January 07 release, and seeing Bandai's pattern, im sure there will be an Andrew Waltfeld Custom after this kit... shakehead.gif again gonna repeat kits...
Nice move... BuCue should have gotten a HG treatment instead of crappy NG 1/144... In fact the entire NG 1/144 line should be discontinued, and use the plastic to make more MGs.... dry.gif Don't waste good plastic on crap models like the NG...

I will welcome LaGowe with open arms. The LaGowe has a slightly different design from the BuCue, so it's not exactly a recolored version, unlike the stupid orange Gaia. Stellar's Gaia was sleek, but ORANGE DOGGIE? shakehead.gif At least Orange Lagowe fits the setting of a desert...

True for Lagowe and Bucue, as the Lagowe is just having a different head, feet, and also beam cannons.... But the Gaia is a totally different design... Seriously the Gaia is a good design that deserves a 1/100 treatment... As with the Ginn and CGues...

oh yeah... MG SF does have poo joints, to attract people to purchase the SE bling bling I suppose...
