    Gundam Figure Thread - Newtype GN-002

    Posted · Edited by joppewo

    Thank You! I believe I will steer clear of the regular GFF, unless I am looking for a shelf queen! Now does anyone know the cheapest/best price on one of these? Thank You

    Twich

    I would advise to stay away from the GFFMC as well.

    It will definitely turn yellow even when not exposed to sunlight, mainly due to the whites not being painted at all.

    i want to check out origins next. i just finished the final episode 50 of Zeta today.

    What the hell, i think all the fighting went down the tubes and Kamille went all Kenshiro on the last two enemy ace pilots. was expecting a big dog fight.... all i got was some out of body experience and then superman untouchable gundam mode. really anti climatic battles. at least Char was still duking it out w/ old style gundam fighting.

    overall, 3/4 of Zeta was pretty good, but the ending just seemed rushed and didn't feel complete but i liked it. i'm going to try and watch ZZ and origins next

    The first half of ZZ takes a total 180 turn from Zeta, which has put off many people :p

    But if you stick through it, the second half or so is actually great (imo at least).

    26,000 yen for the MB Destiny + WOL, this is priced very closed to SF which I think has MSRP of 27,000. Of course with discount, we can expect 23 to 25k yen.

    It's a Tamashii web exclusive, so instead of a discount, expect to pay MSRP +8% tax (28,080JPY) and whatever fees respective shops decide to add-on.

    You should probably be looking at the range of 29,000 - 30,000 JPY.

    Guess who gets the Kimaris.

    Kimaris manual preliminary info:

    Used in the Calamity War by the first generation Sir Bauduin, a heroic MS.

    This is the reason the Bauduin family is one the 7 Stars.

    After the war it was used in ceremonies since it was a Gjallarhorn symbol and therefore was a famous MS.

    However the 300 years made it fade out of people's memory.

    It hasn't seen combat since the Calamity War

    - High maneuverability due to various boosters, particularly good for space combat, has excellent stability for combat in low orbit being pulled by gravity

    - Leg boosters at full boost can make it reach distant enemies in one go, by mastering them it's possible to make quick turns/acceleration.

    - Gungnir: uses the high mobility of Kimaris to have severe thrusting power. It also has 120mm rifles for restraining fire.

    - Combat Knife: meant for ground and sea combat.

    - Slash Disk: made of rare MS frame metal, can tear even nanolaminate armor with its high speed rotation.
