Now we can expect the crystal version next.

No MG Char's Zaku II Origin announced
but then there's thunderbolt!
2016 is the year of UC revival?

no....next will be.....Phenex P-Bandai, imagine the price...

my guess is Metal-Build, they always come with really fine details and extras, which the barbatos fit the criteria, or they might throw a new name to "metal builder" and announced a bunch of IBO figures which u can switch their parts around

If they ever going to make the most expensive unicorn, it'll have metal frame, gold armor & v-fin and emerald psychoframe. No electro plating...

Hate to disappoint you, but Thunderbolt will go for 4 episodes only

SOS Thunder

There is a metal composite phenex, p bandai

I'm talking about real gold and real gems.

My guess? It might be similar to Takara Tomy's DMK line; Preassembled sturdy inner frame + pre-painted armor pieces on runners.

yea read about it, i mean they start to focus a little more on the UC line in term of merchandising

don't think they will do something so crazy, if it happen it gonna cost more than this

u guys know any shop/place still got MG Universe Booster? No luck in garage sales so far

lol same case here. thanks to the event.

hi sifus, my case here is a bit specific. i have been building SD gundam during my school days and stop for sometimes until recently i bought myself a MG strike freedom gundam burst mode. anything i need to be careful building this guy since i have no experience other than SD gundam -.-" and i saw youtube review, the guy said the gold colour of the joints are different from other parts therefore we might need to touch up with gold gundam marker... any idea how much it cost and where to get it ?

looks like i do follow the SOP, buy and regret later.... worried i cant finish or break this MG -.-"

Just be extra careful since more parts means the rigidity is less, but nothing to be afraid of. Extra careful means more time spent to do, and that is better than a rushed job.

Gundam gold marker usually costs around 15-20 these days.

heh thanks mate.

The wing mechanism is abit fragile. Pay extra attention when u put it together. If it broke the wing wont open symmetrically.

The gold marker will not achieve the same shine as the chrome gold. It sure as hell better then the puke gold that comes with the plastic, but know that its tone will not match 100%. The marker is about 20bucks. If u wan to try i would suggest u to get a spray can of bosny gold instead, much better then the marker and u hav the option to spray all the gold parts with the same paint to achieve a match.

thanks for the warning on the wing part ~.~

yeah i did saw on utube that the it wont shine as chrome gold. what im afraid is i cant find the spray that matches the chrone gold of the hand as i do not wish to spray the hand part -,-" and noob like me might over spray and cost the joint too thick.

ish... sudd felt like should start with HG instead of MG.... at least i wont feel the pain so much if i screw up....

Try Bosny Copper Gold.

Nothing will, the gold effect is done by electroplating process. No paint can ever replicate it.

Just spray over the whole thing with bosny gold to get a match. If u arent confident with ur painting skill i suggest u just marker it and live with it for now until u get more practice time painting on cheaper kits.

Gunpla evolved further with new advanced joint inner frame, good for people who dont have time building gunpla

Based on the inner frame it looks like an another RX78, maybe RG 2.0?

edited: it was a concept but who know if they actually do this in 5-10 years later?

Might as well sell a fully built kit that you can take a part. The engineering might be impressive, but where's the spirit?

I dont get the fuss here
Bandai improve thing, people complain
Bandai dont make any improvement, also people complain

True, where's the love?
if they made it nearly the same way as RG then I'm afraid that the joints will be a big trouble for me...
