So this is what I have "ordered" from HLJ: http://www.hlj.com/product/BAN973903/Gun And this is one I want to get in the future: http://www.hlj.com/product/BAN983647/Gun
What do you guys think? Solid start? I watched a really in-depth review of Heavyarms so I'm totally confident in that one. I also kind of like the look of Wing Zero Custom: http://www.hlj.com/product/BAN929454/Gun But I heard it's "dated?" Dated how? (if that is the one I heard about) |

And what does all of this have to do with your question? Well, Katoki wanted to make a redesign of the Wing Zero that looked closer to the show design (no angel wings, etc.). But there already was a kit called the Wing Zero EW (the feathery one), so he couldn't call it that. And he couldn't call it Wing Zero Ver. Ka, because all the other non-movie kits that already got released were called EW ver, and I guess consistency really mattered to either him or BanDai. So he called it the Wing Proto Zero, a technically accurate name since the Wing Zero of the movie was upgraded from the show's Wing Zero, which his new design closer resembled. So that's why it's called Proto Zero, and it's not an old kit at all, it's either a 2013 or 2014 release. EDIT: super ninja'd EDIT 2: Do the wing effect parts from the old HG Destiny work on the RG?

Ah, I see. I do remember when watching the English dub of GW as a kid, when Endless Waltz happened it flashbacked to scenes and replaced the show designs with the "customs." Like I think when Heero destroyed that space station(?) with Wing Zero and almost died, and they replaced it with the angel-winged custom in EWin the flashback. (I always remembered because Wing Zero had an alt mode, Custom did not)
That greatly helped me in research. The Heavyarms I'm after I recognised immediately was not the normal Heavyarms from the show. (aside from having more missiles, the model holds it's gun instead of having a gun arm) I actually liked a lot of the Gundam Wing EW designs except Wing Zero itself, ironically. (well, I don't dislike it, I just liked Wing Zero better) I'm glad he wanted to make a more show-style Zero, since I think that's an even cooler design than the one from the show. So will they actually do all the Endless Waltz deisgns in MG, because it looks like the green dragon one (Nataku? Altron?) and Sandrock are missing, as well as double-gun green Heavyarms. |

Dat episode was indeed worth the 2 week wait to see it. Everything this week was over the top. Sekai summoning a phoenix, blowing up the moon (albeit a digital one), but everything was next level this week.
