Ez8 doesn't have V-fins either, yet it's quite popular with gundam fans. Turn A was really hideous when it first came out, but now I feel that the design was quite innovative for a protagonist. But then, antagonist mechas had always appeared in weird designs, don't they?
*
Regards the 08th MS Team
if one didn't watch the anime, how many of people will think that the Ez8 is actually main character's MS?
V Fin, red-blue-white-yellow color scheme become the characteristic of a Gundam MS
whenever someone saw a particular MS with these characteristics
they'll immediately think it's a Gundam
For once I've thought the R1 from SRW is a new type of Gundam too due to its color scheme sweat.gif

Gundam topic
Yes, for us who are bored with Gundam "typical design" would like to see some different design of Gundam
but you can't deny the fact that "typical Gundam design" models always has better sales compare to others

SRW topic
If you DO really into SRW games
you should know SRW robots have 2 type - Super Robots & Real Type
those mecha which has "drills, nails, spinning discs, or super duper hadouken stuff" is in Super Robot side (ex. Getta 123, Mazinger, etc.)

On the other hand, Real Type are those which using "rifles, guns, missiles, bombs", which is "military realistic"
Example for Real Type Mecha is Gundams, Huckebein, Gespensts, etc.

Most of the SRW model kits selling in the market now are belongs to Real Type robots
only few are Super Robots type

Then you are lucky lah...
I've tried to bargain with the uncle before on the Armored Core Crest & Weapon set last time
he just keep saying the model is cheap & cannot discount further anymore shakehead.gif

I would only get into SRW kits if there is a 1/100 Huckebein Mk. III, then it would be awesome.

By then I should start a collection of Ver. Ka-only MSes (Zeta Plus C1 is one, and the Zeta 2.0 looked Ka to me).
*
1/100 scale will be quite big already
the 1/144 Huckebein Mk. III now is about 17.5cm tall
which means close to average 1/100 MG

1/100 Huckebein Mk. II is bout 20cm tall anyway

will the twin pack price be cheaper ?
*
There's a price tag for the Destiny Vs. Infinity Justice twin pack - 5,200 yen
Destiny is 2,600 yen & IJ is also 2,600
so the answer is no
twin pack is same with the price buying them seperately
but I think Bandai might include something "extra" inside these twin pack

Anyone here got/buying the R3 1/48 new layzner ? im wondering if this kit is a HG or MG type.

ps: was there a sticky/post/thread that helps answer all the newbies question on gunpla? perhaps we can get the moderator to post it as a sticky

It's neither HG or MG
but the quality is same as MG

MG Strike Noir might include that stand in the box
I just want to tell you that if you like that stand
you can buy at toy shops in KL
for roughly RM 25 biggrin.gif

LightningZERO:
RX-78-2 - It's the father of MG (don't compare it with recent MG tongue.gif).
RX-78-2 ver. 1.5 - Enhanced version of 1st RX-78-2, better articulation & has the Beam Javelin which other version don't have
RX-78-2 ver. Ka - Designed by Katoki, which means more mechanical look & more cool looking
RX-78-2 OYW - Best articulation, but no core fighter

So if you:
Want the best articulation - OYW
Want Beam Javelin & Core Fighter - ver. 1.5
Want cool looking - ver. Ka
Want the very 1st MG - ver. 1.0

boyarque:
RX-78 OYW has its weakness too
which is it doesn't has core fighter sad.gif
OYW sacrifice the core fighter structure & exchange it with superb articulation
