Basically the Nightingale look awesome and cool, but i think tat type of MS cant function well in the atmosphere of earth (too heavy to move under gravity), so this kind of MS will end up all pawn by the F91 high agility type MS!

Sorry this have nothing to do with Modeling

is it me or does the MG Noir look somewhat chubby
and notice the bottom picture wit the hands....looks like HG though  blink.gif

If this is the final prototype before it's release, then I suppose it's not really that impressive. sad.gif For a 4K+ yen kit, it looks as if it only comes with fixed palms instead of the movable fingers like the MKII's or the F91's. I might be wrong though and I hope I am since a 4K yen deserves much better.

The price is quite high too for such as basic kit. It's not any larger than the Freedom which costs 3800yen, but there might be newer gimmicks that the parang backpack is able to do. However IMO it's not really justified to see prices of MG-Strike based designs soaring higher and higher.

Unless a transformable MG Aegis comes along then we probably will jump in joy. thumbup.gif

Well it's just a matter of using the Titans mould and pouring in the same plastic, so there shouldn't be a problem with the AEUG version.

Anyway, good job by BANDAI here to release an improved version of the MKII. At least they are improving on design flaws.
CE lover loathes Astrays? The red, blue, and gold frames are so good-looking it could pwn most of GSD's uninspiring designs. Just to make things clear, Dreadnought is also an Astray according to Lowe (Astray X) while Delta Astray is a total joke.

Anyway, from a gunpla point of view, the 1/100 Astrays have MG-like articulations although the joints are quite loose and fragile. Especially for the blue frame where the backpack is too bulky to be posed. My blue frame had too many freak accidents due to posing - Broke the right arm, broke the pegs of the palms, broke the orange part which holds the dagger... doh.gif

One last thing about Astrays... The torso is too small compared to the fat thighs. Not that it affects the articulation though. Oh yeah, the hole at the back of the torso for the backpack is too small and weak to support gigantic backpacks, hence affecting the model's ability to stand on it's own (unless you bend it slightly forward like a hunchback)... these are problems faced by my blue frame and my friend's Amatu.

i have 1 red astray and 1 blue.... still not want to get the gold one though...

not to mention, I still have the following not assembled yet:

- 1/100 NG Blue Frame Astray Gundam
- 1/100 NG Aile Strike Gundam
- 1/100 NG Launcher Strike Gundam
- 1/100 NG Force Impulse Gundam
- 1/100 MG Freedom Gundam
