Really ? i just panel line straight before i top coat

Gloss surface will be easier to panel line accent to run through.
Most people in r/gunpla recommended gloss coat before Panel Line Accent.

Ever since Legendary Entertainment was acquired by Wanda China in 2016, most of their  productions were disastrous.

Just look at the movies made by them after the acquisition: - Warcraft the Movie was terrible and shadowed the essence of the original story. Great Wall,  Kong: Skull Island was just plain horrible. Pacific Rim Uprising looked more like a B Class movie that should have been ported directly to DVD or Blue Ray.

Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom stayed afloat due to China market, where the company garnered most of their revenue from.

Then again, as the curse goes: - any anime made into live action (save and except for Rurouni Kenshin) had bombed at the box office. So nope, I have zero expectation on the live action adaptation of Gundam.

Probably will become like another Transformer franchise... i don have much hope for it...I am already content with just seeing gundam on screen for a minute in Player One Ready .

Who cares about that? This topic was bring out because of merchandise from that movie. The possibility of Gunpla releases.
Sunrise gonna contribute the mobile suit designs. Its not going to be like Bayformers design.

thats what i hate about, make a new movie/ anime just to sell merchandise.

Merchandise saved Gundam franchise.
Gundam anime back in 1979 was about to get cancelled but Gundam toys sales saved them.

The movie itself is not for charity. It also need to get sell well. So what's wrong with making merchandise?
Personally I care less with the movie but more into the gunpla kit they will make.
If design something like MG Storm Bringer that would be cool(had zero interest with the Build Divers manga as well)

Good theory. Just like how Patlabor Live Action was made(using a real life mecha replica)

How much cheaper is it to buy from hlj or 1999

Not cheaper if shipping cost counted. Shipping expensive because gunpla boxes are big.

Initially plan to buy this but the actual bike is so small.
It looked so stupid and cringey to pair even HG kit on it.

looks like RG Sazabi is suffering weak shoulder joint

Not a kit flaw.
This dude is just mishandling the kit. Rush build because for sake of "earliest review online"

Other reviewers dont have problem with shoulder joint.

Then you're missing the spirit of RG - the Advanced MS Joint.

It's not a complain, the kit is solid and scores 10/10, but I guess Bandai just couldn't make a full blown B frame for a kit this robust and huge.
*
The preassembled Advanced Joint is a hindrance for those who into painting the frame. So starting from RG Tallgeese Bandai done a new style frame.
Bandai also gave up RG articulated hands, waist pipe and laser cut vent face.

Best HG to date. Zero stickers including the eyes(can choose two types of eyes) & full Action Base 5 in clear black included.
Quality near RG level.

I think it's to be expected (stickerless eyes), since it's a natural evolution to their design process from IBO 1/100.
*
1/100 is just being 1/100. Which is more expected because its how much their grade can offer.

Was talking about the HG 1/144. Which is unexpected for 1/144 scale kit unless for RG kits. Even the most sticker-less HG so far is still needed eyes stickers. Plus the hip joint can switch up and down, much like in RG and MG. Which is another unexpected feature added.

If only Tristan get this kind of treatment...

LMAO that head parts count alone comes nowhere near to even the simplest RG (OO-series RGs for comparison)...

Somemore I see typical cheapo one color separation on the shoulders and torso. Where's the supposed "near RG quality comes"?

HG will always be HG. Ugly OOB-build, only comes decent when you do paintings and mods.

Built one before, never again. RG all the way if you prefer 1/144 scale.

HG kits even my 7 year old nephew can pasang one.
*
Obviously you dont build it yet to appreciate it. THE BUILD feel like somewhere between RG and HG. But not same at RG level yet. Thus 'near' RG level.

If you nickpick the color then RG is nowhere great either. The RG Zaku Johnny Ridden has cheap looking red plastic. The RG Strike Freedom blessed with ugly color gold frame(mind you the mighty PG SF is also had ugly gold frame which is ugly OOB.) Where's the word come from think only HG has ugly OOB?
The Moon Gundam color is based on manga color much like HG Thunderbolt line debut as manga color ver before they rerelease the whole line again for OVA color.

I'm sorry but your statement is pretty much fanboyism. I build various grades kits and think each one has its own charms.

on another note...i dont see many people building the mazinger.....why ah ?
*
Maybe because the design isnt appealing and not many know the existence of model kit. Before new HG and SDCS we got the old one made from 2001. Also Mazinger is mostly about action figure & chogokin toy.

might be able to buy just the V2 base and buy the pbandai assault parts only hmm.gif

Yes those parts are selling for around 2.5k yen.. V2 Assault-Buster for 7k yen.

The only thing caught my attention:
-MG new EX-S remold parts from MG Deep Striker.
-HG Gustav Karl.
-Haropla Chairman Haro.
-HG R-Jarja
-RG Tallgeese II

found out why they are doing this... LOL apparently the 7.2kyen v2 assault buster has some gold bling on some parts. where the optional parts for a V2 base is just plain yellow doh.gif
*
Because the plain yellow on chest,v-fin and any other parts of normal V2 they dont do it for add-on version. It would be out of place.
