    Yeah, I'm a bit surprised that the Zeta price tag seems to be an issue. I see this as within the usual realm of MB pricing, it is slightly higher, but I would put that down due to Zeta having a transformation feature. As for MB Providence being a brick... don't be fooled by the large backpack – it actually has some good articulation even with the backpack on and the expanding gimmick together with DRAGOONS is neat. The 00 Qan[T] Full Saber is a first for Metal Build, you might be thinking of the MB 00 Gundam Seven Sword/G which is based on the 00 Raiser. I think the Full Saber might have been in some side story manga or magazin, it never appeared on-screen. Essentially just think of it as a MSV treatment of the standard 00 Qan[T], sort of like Double Fin Funnel Nu Gundam.

    I'm weak and pre-ordered, because and already the other two HMR Heavy Metals, but yikes that 30k+ Yen price tag – that is sort of Metal Build territory!? Not sure what justifies it, honestly if anyone asked me which MK-II to get I would tell them they are better off with R3 model kit.

    A fitting and nicely done tribute by Trigger! ^^^ THIS! And after the initial 50 episodes TF anime we transition into Transformers x Brave, because that's real legacy! And in case anyone is still wondering about core Ginrai's size in relation to Optimus and other bots, this image was shared from the TF Expo. It throws me off with how tall Optimus looks compared to Ginrai.

    Sentinel RIOBOT Dragonar 1 Custom Eventhough I am quite happy with Bandai's HMR, I don't think I can say "no" to this. More images here:

    Official solicitation images for MPG-14 God Bomber. There will also be a Takara mall exclusive MPG-14S variant which contains more parts to recreate the prototype version of God Bomber. This is similar to what they did with MPG-06S Kaen, where there will be a bigger box to house MPG-09 God Ginrai. https://www.taghobby.com/archives/804744 https://www.taghobby.com/archives/805118

    This could be something awesome for G1 and anime fans!

    If you want to know more about the two HG kits, it's being talked about here:

    MPG-14 "God-oh Bombaa" at Tokyo Toy Show, planned release is June '25. https://www.taghobby.com/archives/803975

    Definitely will be checking this out.

    I would have preferred one that doesn't have that stupid head design.

    I don't subscribe to the notion that Hasegawa kits are bargains they are being touted as. To make it just look decent, say on par with an OOB build Bandai kit, your are going to have to invest more work, time and resources. Put a price tag on those points and your bargain is actually the more expensive route to go. And after all that one is still left with limitations, like simplistic articulation for example.

    Latest test shot.

    Lancelot Albion Zero Interesting that they chose to use purple as the accent colour instead of being the primary one, and I think it really works that way.

    Those gorilla arm proportions and oversized lower legs are not doing the HMR any favours, the HG kit is the only winner here.
  22. lechuck
    Hopefully that is fixed too, personally I wouldn't complain if they ditched the entire "armour off" feature from the original Qan[T] and glued everything in place.

    From the taghobby link I posted.

    Speaking of which, I'm surprised not much has been done with the Hi-Nu – no HWS, maybe different backpacks, no repaints, no redesign variant etc.
  25. lechuck
    Looking good. https://www.taghobby.com/archives/801107 Biggest annoyance with Qan[T] was that its armour (especially around the forearms) didn't sit firmly and would just become loose, hoping that has been remediated this time around.
