Darth Mingus Posted July 21, 2020 Share Posted July 21, 2020 I'm a sucker for the MG Barbatos and ordered the add-on kit, mostly for the mobile worker. I wanted it for a diorama I wanted to build titled: Spoiler "Crushed Biscuits" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kajnrig Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 Nice job on the Barbatos! Something about the MG's proportions doesn't sit right with me, but still, that combo of big ol' cannon and frakk-off mace just... it gets me every time. Mwah!

Big s Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 I actually like that grand daddy gundam design and it’s nice that you get the dock. I do think that there are way too many rx 78 versions coming out a bit close together though. Just in the 1/144 scale there’s the origin, the beyond global and this one and that weird one that couldn’t move the hip armor. The teaser for the perfect grade looked like another redesign as well. That’s at least 5 designs for one suit in just over a year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ordered the second I saw it up, I love the Stormbringer, but really like the idea of building the GM Turbulence aswell. The colors just look great compared to the original Stormbringer.

Kelsain Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 This one’s a must-have for me, so I preordered through Gunpla Hermit’s. I was hoping that it would pop up on the official P-Bandai site, as it would be cheaper, but It still hasn’t and I don’t want to risk missing it. If it does show up there, I can preorder as well, then sell the other one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sanity is Optional Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 I'm placing an order through FromJapan. The GM variant of that looks pretty sweet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
General Rasp Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 I wonder why P-bandai US is lagging with getting the pre-orders for the new kits. They put up the robot spirits unicorn up really fast. I am waiting for the new AOZ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
General Rasp Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 P-Bandai US has placeholders up for a TON of Gunpla Expo Exclusives. If anyone has wanted a clear version of a kit they will have it available. I am eyeing the clear Moon Gundam, RG Unicorn Perfectibility and four different gunpla weapon systems.

anubis20 Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 Completed the MG Gundam X. A friend sold me this kit super cheap and its the only reason I got it but I am glad I did. Its probably the best Bandai kit I have worked on, didn't really need to do anything out of the box besides the painting. No need to work on seam lines or anything like that which is something I had to do even on MG Barbatos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of COURSE they put up the RG Perfectability, after I just paid $138 to get one through Amazon Japan 2 days ago. Knew I ought to have waited, oh well. The Plated Sazabi looks pretty sexy as well.

Darth Mingus Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 This is probably my favourite form for the Hazel. I am glad they are going to make this one kit instead of forcing people to buy multiple kits to get the parts to make this thing. I wonder if they designed the runners properly so that we don't get a box full of useless junk. I hope so, given the leftovers from the HGUC line.

The kit is priced at 8,800 yen, how much was the Advanced MG Hazel when it came out? Assuming the MG gundam frame (or most of the frame) is usable with the new parts and only the armor is replaced then we would have a lot of extra pieces. I am guessing the Advance MG Hazel is going to be used as the base kit (in white this time) with Primrose kit and a separate runner for the Tri-booster. The Primrose kit replaces the shoulders and chest armor. There will be extra front skirts since it uses the manipulators from the Advance Hazel. And the Hazel backpack is replaced with the Tri-booster. Still super happy everything is in one box! I don't mind paying extra if it means I don't need to cannibalize three kits to make one suit. They should have done this with HG version. 1 hour ago, anubis20 said: Holy crap I need them as well!!

Still waiting on other kits to showing on the US site. I am very tempted to order on the Japanese site through a proxy and just eat the shipping cost.

Duymon Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 man P-Bandai US site is so behind. They don't even have the new Stormbringer variant up yet for Preorder so might be a while before the new MG AOZ stuff shows up there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
