I got my long awaited full armor unicorn gundam destroy mode (not the SD sorry @syd ) and this box is freakin’ huge! It’s about twice the height of the HGUC unicorn destroy…
My most recent milestone is completing my first prefect grade, the Zaku II production type.
I love this kit. It’s simply amazing in both engineering and looks but lacks a bit of ankle articulation due to the design of the leg armor (it’s fine with just the frame)
My very first Gundam kit ever built! Shin Musha Gundam Master Grade. It was a great experience and I have around 18 kits ordered from HLJ so this guy won’t be too lonely, haha.
Any one know anything about the MG gundam age Fx that was announced last year? want to add that to the collection to complete my age set 🙁 only have age one and 2 so far
Well MG The-O was announced (with a pretty awful looking prototype) back around 2003 and we only got that in 2010 due to not only the complex design but the lack of enthusiasm from the community.
Looking at how little the past AGE MGs have sold compared to that of SEED or Unicorn so it’s not surprising that we’re yet to see any news from Bandai…[Read more]
actually, if i heard correctly, the reason why the age fx and age 3 MG was removed was due to poor sales rate of the age kits, so Bandai just decided to cancel making an MG age fx and age 3
People would still buy it, but for the fix, I wouldn’t count on it. The fix should be fixed in version 2, ova, or kai version of the base kit. I doubt they would fix it on a “customized or derivative” of the base model.
Given how the other BF MG’s have used base kits, the chances of a fix are all but nil, granted though, the exia is quite popular and a dark matter would probably sell like hot cakes.
I can’t find MG Unicron Phenex anymore on hlj.com and I see MG Unicron Ver. Ka Titanium is getting a restock. Are you guys not selling Phenex anymore? And I thought Unicorn Ver. Ka is gone for good.
I’m pretty sure that the regular ver.ka is gone but being the only titanium unicorn they have to keep using that mold until they make a new one.
Syd and Ryan said a while ago on the show that the phenex is treated as a special release, similar to the NG Akatsuki or MG Hyaku Shiki, so it’ll be restocked within the same time frame as a regular…[Read more]
http://www.hlj.com/product/BAN986534/Gun is listed a discontinued, so you’ll need to click on the ‘Show Discontinued Items’ box on the Gundam UC catalogue page before it will appear.
They usually have one big building contest a year and it probably won’t start until late this year as the lay finished in January/February. They have a random draw going on at the moment where you can win 2 kits (with variable amount of work done on then but mostly they’re just completed kits)
