The articulation does look similar to the ver 2.0, but since it's a HCM Pro the size is going to be freaking small. I feel that the red lines on the chest and the feet are incoherent with the paint job and the other decals. The hangar looks good too with the weapons rack, but for the high price of a HCM Pro, it's better to get an MG Zaku ver2.0 instead.

Actually its Super HCM Pro, which means like the previous SHCM Pro, will be in 1/144 scale, instead of 1/200

Huhu, I think when MGs are introduced to Malaysia market, it was in 1998. Sadly, that was when M'sia in "kegawatan ekonomi". I still remember MG Zaku II price at that time (at Toys R Us) was RM 199.90

I'm considering on buying the Overflag. Overflag is the unit Graham piloted when he pwned Throne Eins right?

isn't that Graham Union Flag Custom?

I noticed the rifle on his MS is different, not boxy like on the Graham Union Flag Custom. Besides, isnt Graham MS color now is same as the rest of his team?

Freaky, someone just add me in friendster, and the freaky thing is that person I think is a person from this site, plus, I never let anyone here know my account shocking.gif  sweat.gif

Anyway, I think Strike Gundam is one of the most overuse Gundam in MG, if I'm not mistaken, it even beat RX 78-2, let me see.

MG Aile Strike Gundam
MG Strike Noir
MG Strike ISWP
MG Strike E ISWP
MG Launcher and Sword Strike Gundam
MG Strike Rouge

Now for the RX 78-2 list

MG RX 78-2
MG RX 78-2 ver 1.5
MG RX 78-2 ver Ka
MG RX 78-2 OYW/Animation colour release
MG RX 78-2 ver 2.0 ??????????
is that all?Hmm, correct me if I get anything wrong. Plus, we must consider that Strike Gundam is a design come out far later than the original Gundam.
*
Strike do beat RX 78-2, but not RX 78 series. Aside from MGs of RX 78-2, there's also RX 78-3 (G3 Gundam), and RX 78 Casval Custom(the red one) and Perfect Gundam (actually it's an RX 78-2 that wears armor). The three I mentioned used RX 78-2 frame, but different color only/have additional accessories

Judging from the manufacturer, it should be an action figure. Studio Half Eye also produce Grungust action figure

edit: Grungust above also can transform

ooo...like that aaa.....but maybe with good proportion of suitable paint also can give same quality with the factory product....but it up to the individu,i jus give my opinion only.......

Actually for metallic coating kit, if I'm not mistaken, Bandai didnt paint the metallic color on the runner, instead use some sort of process(I didnt remember what its name) that make the metallic color stick to the plastic. If you noticed, the surface of the metallic coating is slippery, not the same like paint texture (Gundam Marker also hard to stick to that surface)

The metallic color is expensive. That's why they use the yellowish gold color on standard SF. If not, standard SF price can be very, if not exceed RM 200. I think the main reason FBM is more expensive is because of the coating. If you noticed, any gunpla with metallic coating is more expensive compared to other gunpla in the same line (good example is Akatsuki and Astray Gold Frame, in which their price is much more expensive than other 1/100 Seed/Destiny NG)
Also, what MG excel at is not the kit color, but rather its articulation and level of details
