Jolly Rogers Posted June 26, 2004 Share Posted June 26, 2004 we'll see it if bandai decides to whore the seed series for all it's worth... As if they weren't already doing it to the point of being excessive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dat Pinche Haro! Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 WOW!!!! Looks pretty good Haro!!! i just really hope bandai gets their heads out their asses and maybe make a wing zero custom Master Grade kit...or at the very least a MG Tallgeese....the 10th anniversary of Gundam Wing is coming up so why wouldn't they? i mean gundam wing is still much alive in the US i know that the whole gundam wing hype pretty much died down in Japan but it would be nice if they could do something more for the North American audience (and European?) that's still into GW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stores no longer stock Wing toys and model kits except for the SD ones, which aren't exactly flying off the shelves either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zeo-mare Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 that is a nice wing gundam Custom, i do not see why Bandai could not release that as a normal Master grade kit, there really is no difference in the bodies, just the wings and weapons, i would love to have a master grade wing gundam custom, and maybe a few other from the wing series as well.

Dat Pinche Haro! Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 The GW kits weren't that easy to come by (the toys sucked so I never bothered with those)...I either had to travel half an hour (at the very least) just to find some of the 1/144 non-HG gundam kits, which was pretty much a disappointment. All the GW kits I use to have I had to order off the internet or ask someone who was going to Asia to pick up some up or traveled out of town to get. When a local store did finally get some models in the series was off the air and they only supplied Wing, Wing Zero and Epyon all in 1/144 too. There's a comic book shop that still sells the GW kits but who'd want to pay $30 for a 1/144 Tallgeese? Bandai did re-release the Endless Waltz 1/100 kits but they were (as far as I know) available at Toys-R-Us and video game shops, and those also sold out pretty fast. I'm sure now interest is dying down because of the coming of Gundam SEED. I know tons of fanboys who complain about this stuff more than I do. Now I'll quit beating the dead horse and go back to the discussion on hand... I'm just so glad to finally get a kit of the Freedom Gundam that does what Okawara couldn't do...make the Freedom look cool!! this kit really beats the hell out of the lineart and what the MS looked like in the series IMO...this kit truely is the definative version of the Freedom, and all without going on to a PG scale Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dat Pinche Haro! Posted July 2, 2004 Share Posted July 2, 2004 (edited) just curious but does anyone know of any good shops to get the freedom and other mg kits at a fairly good price? i just don't want to go through hlj or wait until gundamstoreandmore decides to update and ad the freedom to their site i wanted to place a pre-order at hobby search but by the time i wanted to preorder it they closed all their preorders. i also found it on jhobby but i dunno if the site is really reliable i really want this kit (since i know it won't look like crap like the other freedom releases ) BTW here's proto's from jhobby.net http://jhobby.net/product_info.php?products_id=1203 Edited July 2, 2004 by Dat Pinche Haro!

Angel's Fury Posted July 2, 2004 Share Posted July 2, 2004 Oh I'm posing this guy either like the bottom right or upper left. I might have to paint the Freedom too. Yeah! Those two poses look better than the one on the top right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GRAND CANNON Posted July 2, 2004 Share Posted July 2, 2004 Another great kit! Like those poses. I wouldn't mind seeing it on its stand in this stance.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anubis Posted July 2, 2004 Share Posted July 2, 2004 Even if I use the pose from the bottom right of the pic I posted, the wings will be out. Gotta pose Freedom with the wings out, especially since the cannons are jointed for left/right movement as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GRAND CANNON Posted July 2, 2004 Share Posted July 2, 2004 All photos are pointing that a stand will be included. Whereas the proto-sculpt had a small stand, these current pics look like the launch stand included with the Strike will be part of this kit, too.

It's hard to say which stand it's coming with right now, because the page the pics came from had shots of BOTH. It could be the Freedom on Strike's stand as a possibility. Either way, it's coming with a stand, and either will let me pose it nicely, so I'm not worried. Edited July 2, 2004 by Anubis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angel's Fury Posted July 2, 2004 Share Posted July 2, 2004 How about the MBF-P03 Blue Frame Astray? Will it come with a stand too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stamen0083 Posted July 2, 2004 Share Posted July 2, 2004 (edited) ...these current pics look like the launch stand included with the Strike will be part of this kit, too. What current pics? The picture with the Freedom Gundam on the MG Strike stand isn't the MG kit. It's a 1/100 HG and MG Strike kitbash. I dislike the MG Strike stand, since it's huge and clunky and ugly. The MG Freedom stand looks much more attractive, and I think it'll be more effective. The 1/100 HG Astray doesn't come with a stand, and I don't think any version of it will. We've yet to see if there will be a MG Astray, and whether or not it will come with a stand, but if these two MG SEED kits are any indication, I think it will.

I was refrring to the pics in Anubis' post as well as the pics that were linked here: http://jhobby.net/product_info.php?products_id=1203 They've described/labelled all as the MG, first I've heard of a kitbash. Nonetheless, I would also prefer that "star-shaped" stand rather than the "launch-stand". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mean this picture: http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/uploads/po...-1088780398.jpg That's a MG Strike/HG Freedom kitbash. I guarantee you that. Don't let JHobby's label throw you.

Dat Pinche Haro! Posted July 2, 2004 Share Posted July 2, 2004 i think most of these pictures point to the stand with the basic rod and base. i honestly wouldn't want the launching pad myself...i really don't have the friggin' room for it. BTW...i pretty much caved and decided to order the kit through HLJ i seriously didn't want to go through them because of problems with my last 3 orders from them also...i finished up my Ingram 3 kit and have it posed bending over with club in hand and ready to hit the gouf custom...the gouf has his ass in the air and its hands covering its head...talk about police brutality!
