Well, there's no way RG loses to the Revive version in terms of looks.

sorry, reason why HGCE is better than RG not found.. if you want to say aesthetics, RG still wins out, proportions are good.. the photographer sort of made the RG arch backward to make his waist look terribly disproportionate... posability, the RG wins too
the only thing the HGCE wins is value for money tongue.gif then again, add on another 50% and you can get the far better RG

I still cant find any advantage of the HGCE other than cost or ease of build.

i never build any titanium kits before but i build the gold plated HGUC hyaku shiki
the 'Hyaku' word is using dry transfer, and I didn't see any scratch on the gold plated surface after i apply it
*
you're not suppose to scratch when applying dry transfer, just apply pressure on the whole decal, and peel off slowly so if there's incomplete transfer put back and apply pressure again, scratch might actually cause the decal to stick on the transfer sheet if you put too much force.

lol its obviously RG have shorter torso even compare at right angle
plus with that slim legs no way it is looking good tongue.gif

RG win details, no doubt
but for proportion, HGCE win
head details wise, both looking good

now I see this, I dont feel to buy RG Freedom anymore lol

solid, cheap, easier to build, made easier for custom kit bashing, even the wings looks like can swap on any latest HG kit
just there are RG kit available, doesnt mean its perfect

that is the reason i still wondering if i should get normal sinanju or titanium for next build, titanium would be nice but the decals will probably damaged in long run, the ver.ka has rich details but lack of bazooka, while ova ver come with half sheet of stickers, which is a no for me sad.gif

use future floor finish, it's non-corrosive so it won't eat away the chrome. i've used it on transparent parts apart from making it look clearer & shinier i don't see any issues.

i think the middle one looks better. too much detail doesn't always mean better.

I guess it boils down to the preference. (I still like RG proportion)

They already recently redone Strike, now Freedom, of course Strike Freedom is a matter of time. Bandai, give us updated Infinite Justice as well! (HGCE or RG)

In a general sense, there's no need to rush and jump in the bandwagon to be the first.

Unless for specific reasons, like joining GBWC or commissioning purpose.

totally agreed, got a rush of blood while pre-ordering and got it 1st hand but wears off quickly as i thinking of how to customize this kit.

same goes with my tryon and hyaku shiki 2.0 theres no rush to get them as these normal new release will have plenty available

still why no goodies for rg astray? at least i got game card for tryon! waste of effort for being 1st batch owner...

Agree. It's just that some pre-order are cheaper than normal price.

Example: gwing hyaku shiki 2.0 preorder is rm210. normal price once item arrived is 240.
