Same reason goes to the ones like the Gundam DX, because I don't think Bandai wanted to talk about 'a cancelled anime'. And we will have to wait for a long time for a MG V2AB or something siilar because Tomino's 'I do not want to see anything V to come out' attitude (remember, he told people not to watch V at all in the DVDs).

Very true. The same could be said about the Sentinel line, as there is word that Bandai cancelled the Sentinel MG line because it wasn't doing so well (something I beg to differ), so that is why they might have move on to milking money from fans now.

Of course, not everyone liked the alternate universe Gundam series, and the fact that most Gundam fans are into Universal Century ones is another factor (with SEED being an exception).

In one of the Japanese conventions, now don't know where is the site.

EDIT: Found the pic...looks HG to me.

Interesting...they even gave a proper SRX head in the R-1 kit.

Sry wrong typo.... i know it is R-1 but somehow end up typing R-GUN lol...
with the head part given..do u guys think that it will soon be able to merge with R-2 and R-3 to form a larger SRX than the ori one?
Provided that they have a R-2 Powered and a R-3 Powered of the same scale (1/144) to go with it...

Of course, Kotobukiya need to make more 1/100s to be good...

i believe the upcoming R2 powered is 1/144 too...but being same scale doesn't mean it will be transformable
the SRX transformation is a mystery to me...coz i haven't seen them actually *combined* together with that funny head  unsure.gif
btw anyone got huckebein 1/100? the price of SRW's 1/100 is damn expensive though...

I think one of the SRW games have a tansformation sequence of them, and they do make sense...although I got a feeling it will be tough (but not imposible) to replicate that in a 1/144-sized kit.

The R-1 will be the core, R-2 will be the main torso and the hands, and the R-3 will be the legs and stuff like that, if that is what I've seen. The head is actually 'tack-on', since it will be placed on the R-1's head. Try to find the Youtubes of it, it might be there.

About the Freedom Clear Ver. AF have some of them, price is close to MG Freedom.

Depends, but I prefer marking before assembly.

I bought the Zeta Plus at TM, and the Zeta 2.0 at AF. I count myself lucky to know this place first.

By the way, anyone have dealt with Armored Core kits here? Want to know which Gundam scale their weapons sets will most likely fit.

whoami123 and fywire: Thanks for the info, will be looking to get some of their weapons sets soon for the Plus (probably those that does not involve the hands)...or even one of the Zoids multi-missile mounts.

young_soul: More than impressive, making the normal MG S-Freedom more worth it for stuff like modding.

Too many people having Mark IIs, that is why I went the other road (ZETA 2.0!!!).

Despite being a sucker for SEED, Zeta Gundam brought me into Gundams first. But anyone can make their own choice.

led: I'm that same kct at AF's forum.

I'm actually inclined to say that it looks like a mix of UC and SEED, but the proportions are something that we will never be sure of 'which is the right version?' all the time.

After all, it's literally a Ver. Ka of the Gundam X (before anyone goes 'WHERE IS MY MG DX, BANDAI?' here).
