Re: Wing Gundam Ver. Ka Endless Waltz

I recently picked up the same kit as well. My first MG personally, so I thought it was pretty good. Fortunately, I did not break anything while building it, but I do think it looks too much like the WZC, despite it not being a direct upgrade of the Wing. To hold the buster rifle, I followed the tips...

Re: Gundam Wing Mechanics Questions

Does the Sandrock Custom (EW) and Early Type still have the missiles on the chest? Cause when I looked at the armaments, it doesn't seem to have them. And are the machine gun and shield part of the Sandrock Custom's armaments (http://media.photobucket.com/image/sandrock%20custom/Scar_Predator1/42105...

Re: Official Gundam Next-Gen Games and Upcoming Releases III

Oh man, the Tallgeese III, looks interesting. Hope it's somewhat similar to the Tallgeese I in GVGNP, a speed dashing hit and run unit. btw, did they take out the Gundam Wing TV series units from Extreme Vs? All I see are Endless Waltz units (which I dont really mind lol, I just wanna see the Epyon ...

Re: Upcoming Models, Merch, & Rumors X

The Epyon is kinda foreign to me for some parts, the head doesnt look evil enough... looks like he just slapped the v-fin and ear fins onto the TV Wing's head. The shield is more streamlined, but the heat whip looks different, which doesnt mesh well with the Tallgeese III's whip, which doesn't make ...

Re: Gundam Wing Mechanics Questions

Since we're talking about Wing, I'm curious about Mobile Dolls and their capabilities. The Wing MS encyclopedia has left me wondering if it has better details about the MDs. MD's as depicted in the show seem to be able to just choose a target to lock onto, the priority target (a Leo or a Gundam), a...

Re: MSIA Today

I used the forearms of the first version of the RX-78 figure Oh man, the first RX-78 figure... I can't believe I chose to buy that thing over the Char's Zaku, Nataku, and the Tallgeese III at the same Walmart shelf... It's just such a bad figure... guess I shouldn't have expected so much, but yeah,...

Re: MSIA Today

The SEED figures do have some monotony about them, but I like that many of their weapons are interchangeable with eachother. Right now I have Force Impulse with two beam rifles, and I even modified my Savior Gundam (one of my favorites) to have beam swords on its feet, so its that much mor elike Ae...

hmm, this screenie seems to show that it can be used handheld if needed, which means the III could wield its shield whip like Epyon if needed.

Re: MSIA Today

yeah i have the extended Zeta as well, pretty good, my only gripe is it has no mega launcher. :( I also have the extended Gundam Mk II Titans and Zaku II, liked the Titans alot. Sometimes I wish I didnt have so many of the Seed and Seed Destiny MSIA though, they're all of the same variety, beam rifl...

Re: Gundam Wing Mechanics Questions

Just a thought, are the Tallgeese series of units supposed to fight with their shoulder weapons mounted or detached? Like, for the dobergun/mega cannon, there's only a limited range of movement with the shoulder mount, so is it used detached from the shoulder mount or attached? Same goes for the shi...

Re: Gundam Wing Mechanics Questions

As for the weapons, Aquarius devotes most of its reactor output to the Anti-MD Virus broadcasting pods and the thrusters (which allows it to fly), meaning it can't power any weapons bigger than its own heat rods. Are the shoulder spikes the MD virus pods? Just a nitpicky question. Also, regarding t...

MSIA Today

I recently bought two of them to complete my collection: got the Tallgeese III and the Sandrock Custom. They're not bad, lacking in total articulation compared to later MSIA and the Damashii's but I like em, esp since the Sandrock has its cape and the Tallgeese is already painted. Does anyone still ...

Re: Gundam Wing Mechanics Questions

Regarding the Aquarius, do we have any information about its use? I mean its a video game unit, but is it actually built and piloted? I've also been told it uses the Tallgeese's weapons because its own reactor cant handle it.

Re: Gundam Wing Mechanics Questions

So yeah, the Tallgeese III is definitely a bridge between the original, II, and the 5 original Gundams to Zero and Epyon alongside Deathscythe Hell and Altron. (Sandrock and Heavyarms getting, in comparison, very minimal upgrades.) Hmmm, I always considered the T-geese III to be a superior unit to ...

Re: Gundam Wing Mechanics Questions

I recently gone to Gundam wiki and I found these two. Did the Thruster stats get retconned or something? All they used are the Okawara's established weight and height, but didn't mention the thrusters. Can we confirm this by using the recent MG Deathscythe Hell? I need a professional opinion on thi...

Re: Upcoming Models, Merch, & Rumors X

Doesnt it seem like Bandai is holding back more Trailblazer kits because they're planning something? I dont know, maybe an Awakening special edition? I just got a hunch. (Maybe cause I want to see more Gundam vs. ELS action)

Re: The Gunpla that will Never Be.

Yeah I think they should do an upgrade for some of the older MG's. If they can upgrade the Gundam MKII's, Zeta, and like all the OYW designs, they can upgrade some of the more popular but old MG's, like the GP01 and GP02 (i'd love to see that thing with a stand aiming its bazooka). I'd also like to ...

Re: The Gunpla that will Never Be.

(It's from a game...game kits NEVER get made into MGs) Arent the Gundam G04 and G05 from a video game (Encounters in Space)? Granted, the designs themselves arent too hard to convert from the RX-78, but they're still game designs. The MG line itself has some weird designs from odd places like the H...
