Upcoming Models, Merch, & Rumors XI

[Arsarcana]

Also, the MG Sandrock has effect parts for the heated shotels (which is nice seeing how EW forgot to include that bit a la the Gouf Custom's unheated heat sword) and they've announced the Genoace Custom and Zedas for November releases.

Hmmm, seems our December MG would be Full Armor Unicorn Ver.Ka(??)

[SNT1]

Dra-C is interesting, but the latest news seem to be weak overall.

[Calubin_175]

It seems like we always get 3 rehashes per year that would each occupy a single month. This year we will have 4 (counting RG Zaku and not Wing Ver.EW).

I would have much preferred a non transformable MG Destroy Mode, but then they got the Robot Damashii to serve that purpose. I doubt that the Full Armor Unicorn with a high price tag is going to sell well even though it has the novelty appeal of being an MSVish design.

With the poor articulation of the Unicorn frame, I think they just want to overshadow this weakness and make a semi-static bulky model out of it akin to the Ex-S Gundam.

I was hoping for a GP01 Ver.2 or an Origin RX-78.

On the other hand, I am interested in the Tamashii Spec Obari styled Dragonar Custom.

There's also new rg freedom pics too, the color tone and overall is looking good- and thanks heaven for extra manipulator!!!

Hey, the latest news may seems weak, but you have to admit that HGUC Jesta got a very cool boxarts.

[SNT1]

^It's so cool. Like, Call of Duty cool

Come now, there's no need to insult the Jesta.

According to this video, 1/48 AGE-1 will have light-up feature for head and chest unit. Test batteries will be included. The most interesting thing is, it says that the switch will be the rotation of its back vernier. Good idea. Also, very nice exterior detail. Almost like entirely different grade than mega size RX-78 and Char's Zaku.

But... some people like Call of Duty.

Where has it been stated a red set will be released? I would LOVE a red set! But all I've seen listed in news or on HLJ is a green set.

[Heecarl_Reez]

The red one seems to be Bandai Hobby Online Shop only...

[pk-man]

The red ones will be sold on Bandai Hobby Shop first, but they will eventually get released. Date TBA

Bandai Hobby hints that in the 13th Japanese Model Show held in 13th Oct, more SEED Gunpla in addition to the RG Freedom will be unveiled in light of the HD Remaster Project, and the Full Armor Unicorn will include a hyper beam javelin.

I just hope that we will get RG Duel and Buster or Noir.

I still have the small hope we will ever see alliance Mass production suits in a 1/144 HG or better scale, i need strike daggers and windams!

Although i'm a huge fan of Strike noir and Duel, i have them in 1/100 MG and HG so not really running to get those, but if they release a RG Yzak custom slash Zaku Phantom i'm game .
Is there anybody who really likes the standard buster?

I have to start building my RG aile strike this week.

-Yep, FA Unicorn Ver.Ka is our December MG- 8000 yen (support stand for back booster sighted)
-HG 1/144 Baqt- December, 1500 yen

[PowerdGNFlag]

And FA Unicorn also has a beam polearm/tomahawk to boot. Booster stands make me wonder whether this will be another display piece MG, a la MG Ex-S.

Edit: a trip to the Unicorn mecha thread tells me that that thing is a Hyper Beam Javelin.

[SNT1]

That Unicorn is an abomination.

What's so "Full-Armor" about it? Armored with guns and weird spear-axe things?

It's a hell of a weapons pack though, that's for sure.
