    This one is a bit of a surprise announcement, a new 1/35 model kit of Billbine is being made and it is part of the R3 line. Yes, the very R3 line we all thought was considered axed by Bandai after only four releases!? https://www.taghobby.com/archives/858466

    It might be an expensive model kit, but I think it is a way better proposition compared to the Metal Structure.

    Synergenex Shield-D-Prime https://www.taghobby.com/archives/803238 Pretty neat how Takara has integrated a lot of Diaclone play feature into this, a shame that robot mode just doesn't appeal to me.

    Basically the same, very light on the included accessories. Ignoring the Hyper Mega Launcher for a moment, they could have maybe added some effect parts, optional heads (different design, Zaku) or maybe an alternate diorama base like they did with the X3 Crossbone – Psycho Gundam comes to mind here. I'm okay with how the Zeta looks, but in a similar direction I'm sort of missing that extra "wow" feature/gimmick. I think the problem here is that I'm not seeing the whole transformation thing as the big feature, because it's kind of integral standard stuff to me for doing Zeta Gundam. It would of been nice if Bandai had done something extra with Wing/Tail binder, like a different configuration for example.

    I'm just glad that Bandai doesn't do the drooping nose thing with fighter mode and keeps it in a relatively straight line, unlike what Yamato/Arcadia has with the YF-/VF-19

    This is the money shot! Decades of various different PT toys costing hundreds and to this day none of them can pull of this dynamic pose.

    Hatchacka has got a review up for the MB Zeta. After reading the review, I'm not so sure on how "great" this latest entry is, but still going to try and get one. https://hacchaka.net/archives/52120193.html

    I see some elements in look and approach sort of carried over from Bandai's YF-19, like the shoulder, upper arm, the way the nose cone is housed or how they avoid the ugly cutout around the upper leg/inner thigh. And just like the YF-19, deep elbow bend will be possible without implementing Yamato's/Arcadia's weak solution of shifting the bicep out of the way.

    More of Hasbro Leader cla... err... Takara MPG-17. Surprisingly it actually has a waist-crunch, although showing OP from the rear to demonstrate is a bit weird. https://www.taghobby.com/archives/843719

    It absolutely is, it's going back to the dark ages of MP like the early stuff or the Hasui era simplicity with "good enough" approximations in implementation. I take consolation in the fact that it is a sub-line.
