thanks for the update...
though i just notice that they said shipment arrived (through FB)...
seems like honoo has arrived...

might drop by this or next weekend...
not buying anything specific yet, just want to see what they have back in stock..

edit: while googling for MG 00 Gundam 7 swords gunpla pics, saw this pic that really caught my attention...
i'm really liking the color scheme and IMO, looks better than the original [Q]uanta...
Credit to the original owner...cant seems to load the site though...

I actually wanted the Nu ver ka but then just bought the unicorn mg and lots of tools (newbie mode) and a few figures coming in end of this month sad.gif

btw why is unicorn articulation seems like old released MG, I had the shcm unicorn which has way better articulation than MG, i know it's a figure but that's almost like the 1st batch of unicorn goods in the market. Why dont they slap a double joint for the knee, because they plan to sell that on PG? sad.gif

transformation issue I think. The HG has no problem with this since it is not transformable
I think the PG were hardly considered to be released at that time when the MG came laugh.gif

but HGUC knees can only bend abt 95-100 degrees too, if u look at Nu, Destiny etc they can bend a almost 160 no problem at all sad.gif

SHCM articulation beats even Robot Damashii and pretty well done for a 1/144 figure since it can transform. That's what caught my attention to own one even when it's pretty rare already.

anyway decided to get the water decal from 3rd party and start doing it once it arrive, the previous 3rd party has poor quality and no numbering, this current one seems to be a direct copies of FA Unicorn biggrin.gif

1. the first variation of unicorn come out at 2007, that automatically rule out nu from ur comparison since its so much newer. Its like asking why my new car got keyless ignition n my old 1 doesnt? Of course it doesnt, because it old. Its not even fair to compare them together.

2. why even take destiny for comparison? Sure they r more or less release at the same year, but does destiny transform?

3. the design itself doesnt promote much movement, sure it looks fluid in animation/manga but that doesnt mean it'll translate well in actual kit. Katoki nvr really care in the first place when he design it, all he wan is to look cool. The mg is the more accurate version, n because of that it suffers more due to the inherent design issue. Just take a look at that atrocious back calf thruster design, does that look like it promotes articulation?

4. take a look at the knee on the lower half of the tight on shcm pro unicorn, u c how extreme that bend is? The main reason why unicorn cant bloody move its knee is because of the back upper calf housing the thruster design is hindering the movement and the psychoframe underneath that armor hinders it even more. U nid an extra joint on the lower tight area to rotate the knee downward to maneuver around the plastic sticking out from the back calf which is what the shcm pro does. There is no space to implement this in the mg, the entire inner tight move upwards during transformation, where r u gonna accommodate another rotation point in there?

5. another solution would be to go the sazabi route, put the rotational point on the calf instead and have the entire knee rotate upwards as it bends, practically the same solution but in the opposite direction as no4. But remember this is in year 2007, such tech doesnt even exist yet.

6. in ur original question u ask why there isnt a double joint in unicorn, well it does it just isnt enough. It needs another rotation point, a triple jointed knee as describe in no4 and/or no5. Either solution will work but again this is 2007 we r talking about.

its entirely unrealistic to expect more at that time, infact all the newer solutions was in part due to its shortcomings forcing bandai to re-engineer their joints, so u hav it to thanks for the newer stuff like nu n sazabi.
