actually i agree if ppl said sinanju is a painting nightmare...
and unicorn is a decalling nightmare

Sinanju is also decal nightmare..... just saw how the AF boss did his.... man those yellow decal are damn hard to apply and also u had to align those white decal on its armor.

^ lol zoids are cool especially the recent release T-Rex one (dunno wat its name is) but i am already too afraid of collecting all this robots... I already have too many unfinish Gundam in my house and i have narrow down my collection list to onli collect all Super Robot Wars mecha.

^ lol model kits are addictive better stay away...... my top records is MG Strike Freedom assemble and place in box for 1 year + also havent AB...... and they are like 50+ gundam boxes in my house waiting for me.

200-300 is a big range to be honest... You could get 2 simple MGs for 300 lol... The Zeta that you posted is actually the old ver1.0 which you shouldn't even consider as we've got the much more superior Zeta ver2.0 around. The others are all pretty good MGs, each with its individual pros and cons. I'll just list the cons that I know of/encountered, since if you like a particular design that alone would suffice as the no.1 to get it.
1.Unicorn = Poor articulation for the knees, loose armour parts, the price hike after the yen surge.
2. Metallic Nu = price, extra-finished coating means the cut marks will be much more obvious and more difficult to remove.
3. MKII = Nothing major, but if you really want to nitpick I'll say that the bazooka is too small for the MKII esp when you compare it to the Gundam/Zaku 2.0's.
4. Hyaku Shiki = price, chrome bling bling might oxidise after some time... The HD version should be a better choice than the bling bling one.
5. Strike IWSP = very heavy backpack, old hands
6. Sword/Launcher Strike = Nothing major except old hands, but the weapons might be a bit oversized for my liking... it's just me I'll say.
7. Hi Nu = price, and the deviation from Izubuchi's lineart might annoy some people. I'm ambivalent about this though.

Since you want something that can transform, the Zeta ver2.0 would be the best choice. But I guarantee you won't transform it that often unless you don't mind wearing down the joints. Or you could splurge a bit and get the Sinanju which would give you painting nightmares.

Thnks lots for ur opinions..now i've got a clearer picture 

well..i've seen old MGs like Aile strike that cost less than 200...but nah,  this will be a one-off thing. wont be buying after this anytime soon.

hmm that means i have to trim off those cut marks with a blade with extra delicacy? izit nxt to impossible?

i guess Hyaku Shiki is off the list.

WOW is this the unicorn?? why r there 2 diff displays??


mm mind if i ask which is ur personal fav among all MG models?

lastly, how much will the cheapest PG around cost?
