  1. For those that are curious about Bandai's HG Scopedog. Edit: Here is another one with a comparison to the Wave kit. I find Wave's version to be better, the HG just overall feels too basic.
  2. Here is a comparison from schizophonic with the MG Gundam Ver. 3.0, the PG should be around 30 cm in height. http://schizophonic9.com/re7/pg_gundam1.html http://schizophonic9.com/re7/pg_gundam2.html
  3. Essentially it is Ramaba Ral's Gouf that can be tweaked to look somewhat like the custom, but is not really a proper MS-07B-3. For example the wired grappling hook instead of the whip for the right arm is missing, paint scheme is obviously different and the torso doesn't have the correct sculpting (side plating around the cockpit hatch). Which raises the question, will Bandai actually bother to make a dedicated GFFMC Gouf Custom and if so, is it doomed to be P-Bandai only?
  4. Indeed, I find it works quite well and the badass proportions of the PG Unleashed is doing its part in selling it. Actually thinking about this further, it is a bit surprising that this F1 partnership hasn't been a thing much earlier. Like once a year one F1 team from past or present is picked out and put on a selected Gunpla, maybe scale it down exclusively to MG, it could make for a neat sub-collection.
  5. Fresh exhibit at Wonhobby. https://www.taghobby.com/archives/747842
  6. Glad Paul Rudd is part of the cast again. Enjoyed the last one, so looking forward to this sequel.
  7. After so many years... it will finally make its appearance – Metal Build Dragon Scale Lancelot Albion. https://hobby.dengeki.com/news/2136743/ Maybe this time we can get a Suzaku pilot figure with the Knightmare Frame and not just an empty cockpit.
  8. F1 team Alpha Tauri are teaming up with Bandai and putting their livery on the PG Unleashed Gundam. https://www.taghobby.com/archives/746961
  9. Mobile game Iron-Blooded Orphans – Urdr-Hunt is now getting a full animation treatment. https://gundamnews.org/undam-iron-blooded-orphans-urdr-hunt-animated-video-project https://hobby.dengeki.com/news/2136529/ Never played the game, but I can only hope the characters and story are more appealing than the main series or at least season two.
  10. Blitzway has entered the Shin Getter chat... https://www.taghobby.com/archives/746745
  11. Some product sample images of the MG Narrative have been shared. According to auto-translation, Katoki seems to have placed emphasis on the psycho frame and core block system. https://hjweb.jp/article/1221840/ Thinking about it the Rx-9 would actually recommend itself for a MSV with a refined full exterior armour.
  12. Apparently designed by T-Rex team, but I'm not quite convinced with the proportions and sculpt. Looks very toyetic compared to their usual offerings and that price of 98k Yen is just crazy.
  13. Voltron from the Netflix series is getting the RIOBOT treatment. There will also an exclusive variant with wing parts for the black lion. https://www.taghobby.com/archives/746223 https://www.taghobby.com/archives/746188 Edit: More pictures where posted in the Voltron thread earlier.
  14. Schizophonic review of Max's YF-29. Bandai seems to have done a couple of tweaks to the parts for better colour separation. http://schizophonic9.com/re8/hg_yf29max.html
  15. Re-release of Shin Getter 1 as a renewal and prototype version. The renewal gets a new weapon and more paint. https://www.taghobby.com/archives/745375 https://www.taghobby.com/archives/745397
  16. Finally! Sentinel is re-releasing Shin Getter 1 again as a renewal and prototype version. The renewal gets a new weapon and more paint. https://www.taghobby.com/archives/745375 https://www.taghobby.com/archives/745397
  17. Articulation for the DX looks like it will make it a joy to handle and place in dynamic poses. The flip out shin and extending foot is a much better approach for Battroid stability, compared to the unstable and annoying sliding mechanism that Yamato employed. For fighter mode it is great that we don't have to use the underside of the feet to fill out the back end. The DX Battroid also has an overall better silhouette/structure to me, it doesn't suffer from wide hip syndrome like the Yamato. I also like how the head seems to poke out of the hood and be more visible.
