GRAND CANNON Posted October 4, 2007 Author Posted October 4, 2007 New promo pics added to links above. Hopefully the QC will be at a high standard for the Hi-Nu's scheme: This may also be the best chance to see an accompanying Nightengale figure, too!!
Black Valkyrie Posted October 4, 2007 Posted October 4, 2007 Bandai should also make HCM-Pro Gundams from 0080 and 0083. More Hi Nu Gundam pic :
promethuem5 Posted October 5, 2007 Posted October 5, 2007 Oh man, don't even say 0083 HCMs... I'd HAVE to buy them and then HATE myself for it...
mpchi Posted October 5, 2007 Posted October 5, 2007 Nice display stand for Hi-Nu. Too bad I don't really collect HCMPro, and really not much room for them either.
Black Valkyrie Posted October 5, 2007 Posted October 5, 2007 Cuz they never really got good QC figures, I really want an EMSIA Gundam NT-1 and GP-01.
Graham Posted October 5, 2007 Posted October 5, 2007 I've found the QC, design and articualtion on the Char's Counter Attack HCM Pros to be great so far. The RX-93 Nu-Gundam & Sazabi are fantastic toys IMO. I'm staying away from anymore 08th MST HCM Pro toys tho. I was so looking forward to the RX-79G and it turned out to be extremely disappointing.

Fort Max Posted October 5, 2007 Posted October 5, 2007 They certainly kept quiet on that Ni Nu, it's practically ready to go.
konimon Posted October 11, 2007 Posted October 11, 2007 Just got HCM-Pro Jegan. Highly anticipated cannon fodder on my list from Char's Counterattack series. Comes with bigger box than Sazabi, but this is the smallest MS in the series. There is just large empty space in the tray to hold some extra parts off the sprue. There are quite a few waist and forearm parts to customize, but not as much fun as Geara Doga which has more handheld weapons. Good articulation, but again Geara Doga suprisingly beats it by a little. It's a great figure though. Underwhelming just because there are many greater figures in this series. Definitely getting Hi-Nu. Could there be Alpha Azieru and Nitingale???

I had already decided on getting it instead of the Geara... must rethink now. Anybody have the hcm-pro Evas from the evangelion rebuild? Are they worth it?
kung flu Posted October 11, 2007 Posted October 11, 2007 Just read on gunota that a JUMBO grade Zeta Gundam is coming out, I'm definitly going to buy that when it comes out, porbably cost alot more than the other jumbos too.
GRAND CANNON Posted October 11, 2007 Author Posted October 11, 2007 Other than the Jumbo Zeta, so far it's all about the Bandai Milk Machine : GFF Metal Composite Casval's RX-78 Gundam EMSiA Zaku Real Type Color - January, 2,100 yen Zeonography Qubeley Set EX - December, 8,190 yen Hopefully some new MS designs will surprisingly pop-up as the HCM Pro Hi-Nu did.
promethuem5 Posted October 11, 2007 Posted October 11, 2007 I just wish they would make one of the GFF Metal 18-2s without the stupid G-fortress so it wasn't so expensive for something I half don't want...
Black Valkyrie Posted October 11, 2007 Posted October 11, 2007 Hmm... No EMSIA : NT-1, GP01 or RX-79G.

sidearmsalpha Posted October 11, 2007 Posted October 11, 2007 The Hi-Nu comes out of nowhere to round out 2007 for HCM Pros: 44-00 GN-001 Gundam Exia (incl. stand accomodating up to 4 moblie suits) (BOX) (10/2007) 45-00 GN-002 Gundam Dynames (10/2007) 46-00 RX-79[G]Ez-8 Gundam Ez8 (1st edition releases incl. option parts for customizing) (BOX ART) (11/2007) 03-01 RX-77-2 Guncannon (Master Marking ver.) (11/2007) 07-01 MS-06S Zaku II (Char Aznable’s Custom) (Master Marking ver.) (11/2007) 47-00 RX-93-v-2 Hi-v Gundam (12/2007) 48-00 GN-003 Gundam Kyrios (12/2007) 49-00 GN-004 Gundam Virtue (BOX) (12/2007) SP-004 RX-79[G] Gundam Ground Type (11/2007) Looks like the Ground GM will have to wait until '08: ??-00 RGM-79[G] GM Ground Type (?/2008) – Ad displayed at the 2007 Shizuoka Hobby Show. Is this the first Hi Nu action figure ever released? Man, been waiting for this! I hope it doesn't suck. One of my fave Gundams.
Graham Posted October 12, 2007 Posted October 12, 2007 The RCM Nu was a great toy IMO, so I fully expect the Hi Nu to be just as good. Good.
GRAND CANNON Posted October 12, 2007 Author Posted October 12, 2007 Is this the first Hi Nu action figure ever released? Man, been waiting for this! I hope it doesn't suck. One of my fave Gundams.I believe it is. It definitley won't suck, but the paint job may be suspect due to mishaps on some recent releases.
konimon Posted October 12, 2007 Posted October 12, 2007 (edited) Even the Jegan's new hip/leg joint and the less kible aren't enought to beat the Geara Doga? I had already decided on getting it instead of the Geara... must rethink now. You'd be surprised to see how Bandai achieved Geara Doga's knee and feet articulation. When Geara Doga crouches down he goes a little bit deeper than Jegan . Jegan's hip joints are better as you can open legs 180 degrees, but not sure anyone would pose him like that... If you are getting just one of them I'd recommend Geara Doga because of the details that include metal parts and plenty of weapons. If you are getting both, perhaps Jegan first.

Geara Doga it is then. And after that, the Super HCM-pro RX-79 . It justs looks really pretty and incredibly posable; any known QC problems in this big hcm?
GRAND CANNON Posted October 16, 2007 Author Posted October 16, 2007 Best use, so far, of the Multi-MS Stand that came with the HCMPro Exia:
promethuem5 Posted October 16, 2007 Posted October 16, 2007 He's /basically/ the only chracter that matters anyways
Fort Max Posted November 3, 2007 Posted November 3, 2007 HCM Pro GM's and the Human Reform League's ground combat suit, Tierien; http://www.toyskingdom.com.hk/forum/viewth...;extra=page%3D1 I hope they do the colonel's custom with flight pack from ep 3.
Twoducks Posted November 3, 2007 Posted November 3, 2007 I finally ended up picking the Super HCM-Pro RX-79 instead of the CCA stuff. It's a beautiful toy and the posability is just awesome. All the weapons and extras are the perfect icing. HCM Pro GM's and the Human Reform League's ground combat suit, Tierien; http://www.toyskingdom.com.hk/forum/viewth...;extra=page%3D1 I hope they do the colonel's custom with flight pack from ep 3. I’m definitely getting the clunky Zaku/Tierien. Why are there six dates and only 5 MS? Also, the sniper Gundam from 00 has already been released, so why is he next to "11 nov"?
Apollo Leader Posted December 27, 2007 Posted December 27, 2007 From Guntoa : Jumbo Grade Zeta Gundam - Said to transform with part-swapping. Holy smokes! I sure missed that bit of news! I might have to add that to my collection.
Black Valkyrie Posted January 8, 2008 Posted January 8, 2008 Any of you got the new GFF PF-78-1 Perfect Gundam Frame Model and GFF FA-78-1 Full Armor Gundam Frame Model, just wondering how good is their inner frame.
Twoducks Posted January 25, 2008 Posted January 25, 2008 And the second Super HCM-Pro isssssssssss... Found in Toysdaily
promethuem5 Posted January 25, 2008 Posted January 25, 2008 Hmmm... a SHCMP Zaku II I could buy... I do love me green dirty walking-tank mechs...
GobotFool Posted January 25, 2008 Posted January 25, 2008 I've always wondered, why havn't they gotten around to making a HCMP for the dendrobium? This seems like the perfect line for it.
jwinges Posted February 6, 2008 Posted February 6, 2008 Anybody know of a good site for getting the latest updates on the HCM-pro's, MG kits, and PG kits that are going to be released? I'm dying to know the 2008 lineup. That Super HCM pro Zaku (char's) is pretty cool Where do you guys pic your gundam stuff up? [i usually go through HLJ] Are the prices good?

promethuem5 Posted February 7, 2008 Posted February 7, 2008 So can we PLLLEAAAAASSSE have 0083 Stardust Memories HCMPros yet? That's about all I'd buy at this point...
