I must just be missing the point here. Apparently Bandai is about to announce a new 1/100 Gundam line at the upcoming Shizuoka Hobby Show. But why?
We already get MG 1/100's, we get non-grade 1/100's for shows from time to time. Why bother with a new line at the scale? I've seen people say they think they'd be like 1/100 RG's which makes no damn sense to me since RG's are essentially just hyper realistic Master Grades at a 1/144 scale. So, da fuq? |

Money grabs, pure money grabs. The two things that work best in my head are either a line of 1/100 scale RG or a 1/100 scale line along the lines of HGUC, hitting that ¥2500 sweet spot. I doubt that a line of 1/100 scale RG kits would make sense, especially given that MG kits already scratch that itch.
Edit: Nightingale as first release with the mkIII and GP04 to follow? I'm sold no matter the concept ![]() Could be a line specifically made for bigger Gundams/Gundams with more equipment or it could be a line between MG and NG. Not sure,but it is an odd choice to pick Nightingale first. Just seems like an awfully big mecha for the first wave of a new line. Edit:I didn't even see Kiryu's post above mine. Great minds think alike. lol. I just figured it out because each of the ones listed by blastmonkey either were big (Nightingale) or had a lot of equipment/backpack (MkIII and GP04)

Wait, so is this new line for bigger suits in High grade or in master grade?

It's a new non-grade line. HG's are 1/144. This is a new 1/100 line that isn't Master Grade either. The apparent focus of it looks to be suits that have never appeared in animation, never received kits, or only appear in side story type manga & novels.
