I just saw this posted on Facebook- Robot Damashii Gundam Airmaster Burst! Yes!! I might have to buy an extra G Falcon now from Nippon-Yasan.
http://www.gundammodelkits.com/robot...ter-burst.html |
Those bastards, now I'm definitely happy about preordering that g falcon. Hopefully Leopard destroy isn't too far behind, maybe virsago and ashtaron too.
|
I'm really torn. Do I buy one G-Falcon, or multiples? I really prefer Gundam's in base mode in situations like this, but at the same time how cool would it look to have all three After War X Gundams displayed with G-Falcons? I think if they're making Airmaster Buster then Leopard Destroy isn't far out. I expect this means that that outside of the three mid season upgrades, the rest of the Gundam's are probably going to be Web Exclusives ala Gundam Wing. Heh.
|
It's nice to see X finally get some attention. It does seem to be following Wing's release model. If that's the case, My wallet is in for a world of hurt. I prefer vanilla Leopard over destroy, same for Airmaster. Love all of the designs though. Even goofy Ashtaron Hermit Crab.
I nestly think that I only need the one G-Falcon, maybe pair it with Double X since that's what I'm used to, however I'm going to have to try out all of the various combinations (if the suits are also released). |
It's great to see X getting the love. Can't wait to see the grunt suits happen. Ashtaron and Virsago will also be really cool to see.
|
I agree blastmonkey, I also prefer the base models for After War X Gundams. The upgrades are nice, and excellent looking so far in RS, but I'd rather see the base models. I'm sure it will follow Wing's release model, it seems that way so far anyway. I would love to see them get to the grunt suits and especially Ashtaron and Virsago.
I'm still holding out hope for G Gundam. I see G Gundam, Gundam Wing, and After War X as a group. I've been collecting the Seed releases as well, and got the RS Blitz Gundam recently. I'm not sure if I'll pick up the Seed Destiny stuff (not sure I'm sold on the old RS Destiny Gundam release). Can you tell I love "Sentai" Gundam? lol. |

I remember my excitement when they started doing new HG G Gundam kits. The modern kits are easily the best versions yet, but Bandai stopped doing them. I can only think of how impressive God Gundam would look in the Robot Spirits line. Though it seems like around the same time that Bandai lost interest in the HG kits they lost interested the SHF G Gundam figures. I'm hopeful that the success of Wing and After War X will help bring back G Gundam. If anything just a few more HG kits so we can get Maxter, Rose, etc.

Wow, it's been 20 years already, crazy! lol. Personally, I think one reason Domon didn't do well is because they released that Gundam Fighter version. They should have went with his casual outfit, which looks way cooler. For the time it's a pretty good looking figure though, it could be better, but it's solid. I've held off picking him up because honestly I just can't think of a good way to really display him like that. I would want a stage that looked like the Gundam cockpit. I still think they should release Master Asia though, and release a casual Domon as well.

Seriously, Id love for some G love. If Bandai would PLEASE make a God RD, a Maxter HG or RD, a normal Domon, Rain, and release Asia. They could all be TWE, I would buy Every. Single. One. |
lol. I like Chibodee as well. I like all of the main G Gundam characters and Gundams. They're pretty silly, but they're still fun designs and help make your display more unique. I would buy pretty much anything G Gundam that Bandai makes at this point. I'll pick up SHF Domon eventually too.
Maybe they will do something for the 20th Anniversary. I know it's about time they give G Gundam and After War X the HD blu ray treatment. Thank god they finally got to 08th MS Team & Gundam Wing. I can't afford them, but at least I know they are out there and will maybe get some sort of US release one day. |

But I might be going on and on about Domon and Chibodee, but I do love everyone from G. Domon, Chibodee, George, Argo, Saisaishi, all of them. :D |
Me too, G Gundam is great. I think people are put off by the designs of the Gundams, and despite their silliness and what not, I think they are all pretty fun and interesting designs. I thought the dynamics and relationship of the main characters was good too. It was a unique take on that five man team imo.
Seeing as Bandai has done Wing and Seed/Seed Destiny, the only place left to go is G Gundam and After War X. Why else do all of these new kits and figures if they don't intend to eventually remaster the series'? I think it'll happen eventually. I really hope the new Wing collection keeps the Wing releases coming though. We still needs a bunch of grunts; Cancer, Pisces, Serpent, Taurus, Virgo, Virgo II, and more color variants. Oh, and that Middle East grunt mobile suit that Quatra friends use, I can't recall it's name. I would love to see the rest of the EW (movie) Gundam's made too. |

lol. I love that meme. I'm pretty sure between Bandai and SQEX, they get all of my disposable income somehow. Haha.
X Divider would be awesome. We still need a MG Gundam X as well, and a new MG God Gundam. Speaking of, barring it being sold out in store, I just got a MG Tallgeese II kit off Mandarake. |

Yeah, if they do get to G Gundam RS figures, they better do Devil Gundam and Dark Army figures. Wing is my favorite series in regards to the mechanical designs. The Leo in particular seemed like the perfect alternate universe take on the Zaku. I've yet to a Zaku spin-off I like more than the Leo.

Heavyarms is my favorite design from Gundam Wing. I love every version. I like them, but especially Heavyarms and Tallgeese. Quote:

That's my motto with collecting anyway. Buy now, find space later. Quote:

I remember l, way back when, my first issue of Hobby Japan featured a mod of the then current ng 1/144 Devil Gundam. Instantly fell in love with the design. Around that time is when my friend and I started purchasing gunpla. Never did pick up that NG, but I did purchase the MSIA when it was released domestically. A RD of it would be killer, as would those of the main cast. Here's hoping the anniversary brings us some news this upcoming Tamashii Nations event (we do have one coming up, don't we?)
|
MSIA was quite prolific in regards to G-Gundam, wasn't it?
|
Yeah, the next event is November 1st-3rd. I'm not sure what it will entail, but I've got high hopes for it.
The MSIA line was pretty profilic yeah, but they're so dated now. Much like those early MG kits. I'm pretty picky when it comes to Gundams and Gunpla, lol. I'm a big fan of Katoki's redesigns and that whole aesthetic. So for me personally, I really love how Bandai has been handling the 90s Gundam's in Robot Spirits and Gunpla. |

Agreed, The popularity of MSIA and the advent of CAD at Bandai helped pave the way for RD, but some of their releases were just plain nuts. GP03 Dendrobium, Devil Gundam (ultimate?).
I still have my MSIA devil gundam. I couldn't really part ways with it. http://i1276.photobucket.com/albums/...ps62f77eb3.jpg |
The MSIA Devil Gundam isn't that bad really. A new HG kit would be off the charts though, and RS figure would be pretty nice so that you know everything would scale right.

How great would it be if Bandai treated After War X & G Gundam like they have Gundam Wing. There would be a lot more web exclusives probably though.
I hope they announce a release date for Wing Gundam (TV ver.) at the next Tamashii event. I really want the Deathscythe (TV ver.) too. That's my second favorite Wing Gundam. |
Vanilla Deathscythe was a favorite of mine as well. They've already taken care of shenglong, heavy arms and sandrock. Wing's on the pipeline, so only one left to go. While I am not completing the team, as of yet, it's nice to know it's out there.
|
So as Ive said I dont care much for Wing, aside from Heavyarms, Which should I get, the new 1/144 Wing, or wait for a RD?
|
I know Deathscythe will happen eventually, I'm just impatient. lol. My RS Shenlong should be here in a few days. I'm ecstatic of course. :D
I would personally wait for the RS release, unless are more into Gunpla. I think there are a couple of minor complaints in regards to how the head turned out. I think it looks okay overall, but I'm sure the RS will be nicer. Unless you paint, which would bring the HG up to the same level as the RS. Then it just depends on which one is more aesthetically pleasing to you. I would at least wait for Bandai's official pictures of the RS version. Compare this: http://myfigurecollection.net/image/...377994104.jpeg To this: http://gundamguy.blogspot.com/2013/0...-hacchaka.html (unpainted) http://gundamguy.blogspot.com/2013/0...by-zgmfxg.html (painted) Nuff said. lol. ;) |
