    Um...I think the ones listed there are "HG". Not really too sure about it though. If theyre anything like the other 1/100 00 models then I would consider them HG.

    Is that what they're officially known as? I always assumed that the HG, MG, and PG labels were used on the high-detail models for the 1/144, 1/100, and 1/60 scales respectively and everything else was just unmarked. Didn't know they were interchangeable between scales.

    since gundam wing kits, ALL 1/100, unless stated otherwise, are to be considered HG, just like all 1/144, unless stated otherwise, are to be considered NO grade.

    Dumb question:
    While reposing my Zeta Ver.2.0 into wave rider mode, I noticed something on the wings.
    When in wave rider, left and right of the crotch area are 2 parts that are connected into the wings with polycaps. This makes me wonder: shouldn't this kit have full landing gear? To me, it looks like those removable parts are the bottom parts of the landing gear, yet I can't find any parts that can extend them so the wave rider can stand on them. Is this left out?

    I never really noticed that before, but I dont recall any sort of extentions included with the unit. I suppose one can build their own custom extentions, but personally I just use the stand.

    In other news....I saw this from gunota just this afternoon:

    New SEED MG for Fall
    An announcement at the end of the Phase-Impulse MG Edition video says a new Gundam SEED MG kit will be coming in the Fall. Though the actual MS name isn't given, the background color scheme of the announcement strongly suggests one of Athrun's MS, with the frontrunner on Japanese boards being the Infinite Justice Gundam.


    Personally Id perfer the Justice rather than IJ simply because the IJ 1/100 scale was pretty good as is. At the same time, Justice 1/100 was pretty horrid and is in serious need of a MG. My only problem would be if/when it does come out, Id have to go back and paint it red again (I dont care much for the justice models being pink.....-ish). That is, unless they do it for me.

    I can't think of anything else that can get a MG in the SEED universe than Justice or IJ....I mean, what other kit can it be?

    They should at leas make 1/100's of those..1/100 Gaia would own.. Abyss would too.. I see now reason why only Chaos would get a 1/100 HG.. was he more popular?

    I doubt it will be Saviour..but Justice/IJ would be more logical..

    I agree, they should finish off the other two druggie suits with 1/100s. But I guess its kind of too late now. Maybe they were planning on doing it but maybe chaos didnt sell too well so they decided not to go through with the other two. Who knows.

    So I guess its offical....Musha Gundams frame is based on RX-78 OYW ver. I dont see how thats possible though since in the game Musha is pretty large compared to the other gundams. I was expecting him to be atleast the size of Nu gundam (or even slightly bigger).

    On a side note, my mg impulse and 1/100 overflag are on their way But I still need to finish off Hi-Nu first.......

    EX Archangel
    MG Gundam Alex

    MG Musha on pre-order and thinking about HGUC The-O..

  11. #11

    That's why I bought the providence.. I prefer MG releases, so I wait a while before buying HGs.
    I'm waiting for some Gundam 00 MGs before I start buying..
    When I get the providence I'll tell you how it is.

    yes double post, but i finally got this baby:

    I almost got the mg hi NU instead, but then i saw this one hidden in plain sight ( i just overlooked it >_>) and just had to buy it. It was also 15€ cheaper so thats good.
    Still need to build master gundam though :x

    Nice
    Still on my to-buy-list.

  16. #16
    Yeah I got both unicorn and hi nu (which I STILL havent finished). I kinda liked unicorn (especially since it didnt need any of the polycaps like regular gunpla). But there were one or two things I didnt like about it...although its been forever since I built it so I cant exactly remember what they were anymore.

    BTW, I remember reading back a few months ago about how RX-78 was supposed to have "new technology". But, when I look at pictures of it and such, I dont really see anything on there thats "new". Anyone know anything on this?

    Don't know...wasn't it the Unicorn that had something new?
    I don't know if anyone posted this yet, but Iread somewhere that there will be an MG RX-78 Version2.. maybe that one will be different?

  18. #18
    Well unicorn was unique in that it didnt use polycaps whatsoever. I thought it made it fun to build but like i said there were some negative qualties about it that I dont remember off the top of my head.

    And yeah, theres an rx-78 version 2.0 coming out in July. Thats the one I was referring to in my previous post. There was some sort of announcement a few months ago that it was supposed to have "revolutionary technology" but it was never talked about since.

    Anyways, heres a look at it:

    http://www.1999.co.jp/image/10072610a/20/1

    Theres several other pictures of it out there, mostly comparing the pervious MG rx-78s to ver. 2.0. Either way Im planning on getting it.

    Hmz.. a couple of Action Bases 1 have arrived last week, and I want to put the 1/100 Saviour on it, but I can't find a upper part that fits in the crotch area.. does it exist, or should I use the 'simple' ones that go around the crotch?

  20. #20
    I just use the four pronged ones that go around it myself. Then again I had it in mobile armor mode too.
