They do seem to have sold out quick. Not that it's something worth fussing about as they're kinda shit. They rely on stickers just as heavily as the old kits (even more so, in some cases), and there's really not a whole lot of improvement outside of a tiny bit of added articulation. Like, the Unicorn doesn't even transform like the old one. So lame.

Yup. I saw a comparison someone did between it and an SD RX-78-2 from the late 90s, and the 90s one was way better in every way.

Heads up everyone, Gundam 00 is back up on Gundam info, subbed only. So if you've never seen the show before, go watch it!

And, even more shockingly, Unicorn is up too.

I made this point on Twitter and I wanted to elaborate. There are two MS designs from Gundam Wing I thought were very good, three actually now that I think about it. Pisces, Virgo, and I think the one I'm thinking of was called Capricorn? It had the shoulder cannons and a sort of hovering tank option for the legs. Then, I even loved Ares' fold up legs transformation for flight mode. And the O2 mask head which made no sense for a MS. And my love of strange MS designs goes beyond Wing. There are the outlandish MS designs of Turn-A, the WTF of G Gundam's designs, and there were even a few through the SEED series. Also explains my love of Mobile Armors, especially from the original series. But on the other hand I also love a grunt. The Leo, GM, Zaku II, Gouf, Dom, and on and on. In my mind, for the most part, the main Gundams of the series all look about the same. The creativity comes out in the other MS designs of the given series.
I love Gundam though, let me make that clear. Wing especially holds a big place in my heart. So does SEED Destiny. Lacus Clyne! |

I have sort of a mecha turn on for badass MSes or Gundams overall. Stuff like the 00 MSes, the Unicorn or the FA-78 from Thunderbolt just really get me going. Quote:

Unicorn?
Also, it's funny how only one of the models that Powerman posted can technically be called a "true unicorn Gundam," and the fact it only has one horn is covered up by the giant... What are those things? Wings? |
