kajnrig Posted April 12, 2019 Posted April 12, 2019 IIRC - Deep Striker replacement parts used for the following areas head (made smaller for better proportions) shoulders (split the top and bottom halves) chest (new parts) maybe backpack? - fixed-pose hands - apparently there are some changes to the frame as well Quote
Duymon Posted April 17, 2019 Posted April 17, 2019 (edited) Holy Crap it's HAPPENING! Could care less if it's P-Bandai I'll get multiples. They'll release the Base kit and then "mission packs" separately. First mission pack is the E and S packs Edited April 17, 2019 by Duymon Quote
Big s Posted April 17, 2019 Posted April 17, 2019 The first gundam kit I ever built is finally getting updated. I loved the options the old kit had and I ain’t missing out on this even if the options get sold separately. Quote
Graham Posted April 17, 2019 Posted April 17, 2019 Oh, yes, I'm getting the MG F-90 also. One of the first Gundam kits I ever built too. I love the concept of the different swapable mission packs. And it's just a really cool looking MS. Quote

Back boosters are an all new sculpt, taken from the Deep Striker, with a mid part hinge and better detailing. The head is not just made smaller, but has better detailing. For example, the white head part has holes for the vulcan guns, which showing the grey plastic barrels.. The Incoms have better detailing and use both red and black or grey plastic. The chest is a new design taking from the Deep Striker kit, with added detailing.....holes...fins and the yellow chest vents have hols showing the black underneath. I heard the wrist may have improved articulation also Quote
Big s Posted April 17, 2019 Posted April 17, 2019 Is the preorder up yet for the f90? I’m just super excited for it and can’t wait, but will have to since it’s not out til summer. I just want that order confirmation. Quote
Big s Posted April 17, 2019 Posted April 17, 2019 Got my order confirmation for the f90 and the parts set from ny. It’s pricey, but this is one of my all time favorite gundams. Now I gotta wait. Quote
Duymon Posted April 17, 2019 Posted April 17, 2019 (edited) I got 2 of the base units and one E/S set paid in full at Bandaionline. With that I can create the S-type which was my favorite of the F90 A/D/S set. I'm sure they'll release the Plunge and VSBR sets later on, and if the F90 is popular enough we'll get the P-Bandai of a P-Bandai F90-II , hopefully with the Long-range parts. Never really thought I'd be able to get modern version of the gundam kits I built in Jr. High ... With Bandai promising more F90 / F91 mecha from the P-Bandai Shop you can only assume they'll release a bunch of Cross-bone vanguard units or even F91 Silhoutte Formula stuff like the Vigna-Zirah or F90 Cluster Edited April 17, 2019 by Duymon Quote
Big s Posted April 17, 2019 Posted April 17, 2019 The support type was the kit that I had back in the day. At that time there were no online shops or anything and gundam here in the USA was almost unheard of. I had been building kits from macross and dougram and had a couple old kits from z gundam. I think one was a 1/220 ashimar and a larger galbaldy. But my very first gundam was that f90 and it looked amazing to me straight out of the box. I did very little with paint and loved that you could remove the cannons and beam gattling guns and have a standard version. I remember I bought it at a hole in the wall hobby shop that was the only place in town that carried any sci fi kits. They never had a large selection and the choices were very random. Most of the other shops did military, car or train models. After that kit I started a wider search for more gundam kits. Quote
no3Ljm Posted April 17, 2019 Posted April 17, 2019 Shoot! Now I'm reconsidering getting the previously announced HGUC Hazel kits to fill my Advance of Z fix. HGUC Hyzenthlay II HGUC Primrose Quote
renegadeleader1 Posted April 18, 2019 Posted April 18, 2019 I have hopes now for new kits the RGM-109 Heavygun and RGM-111 Hardygun. Quote
Big s Posted April 18, 2019 Posted April 18, 2019 When does the hyzenthlay2 go up for preorder and is this another web exclusive. All these new kits I want seem to be exclusive releases lately. Quote

Big s Posted April 19, 2019 Posted April 19, 2019 The exclusive teases have really got me excited. I wish there were more interesting standard releases, but at least a good amount have been for designs that usually were left up to the garage kit market. Quote

Duymon Posted April 19, 2019 Posted April 19, 2019 Ofc they'll release the Nu, then they can release P-Bandai HWS kit for it too Quote
anime52k8 Posted April 19, 2019 Posted April 19, 2019 I wonder what the phase 2 announcement is going to be. Quote

Sanity is Optional Posted April 19, 2019 Posted April 19, 2019 Of course, to get the full squad you need all 3 PBandai sets (possibly 2ea of the smaller kits, depending if it's 1 or 2 units per). Quote
Big s Posted April 20, 2019 Posted April 20, 2019 Do you get multiple base kits per set or is it one with option parts for the one you choose to build? I’m just wondering if I need to get a few more standard ones first while they’re in stock. Quote

Haha I can see the signs 'RIP wallet'. But I like Quatre so yeah I'll get some. At the end of this I can see myself having a shelf full of Gundam Wing kits...if I ever get the space haha. Any guesses as to when the preorder could be? Quote
anime52k8 Posted April 20, 2019 Posted April 20, 2019 no idea about preorders, probably fairly soon though. the two 2-packs are easy buys but the 36 is just... so excessive. And TBH the only really exciting one from the big set is the one with the gun arm. Quote
hachi Posted April 22, 2019 Posted April 22, 2019 A better presentation here: https://www.gundamkitscollection.com/2019/04/premium-bandai-to-release-set-of-36.html Quote In order to celebrate the 10th anniversary of Premium Bandai, they've announced the release of 36! yes, 36 pieces of Maganac corps kits in one huge set. That includes the Rashid, Abdul, Auda, and Ahmad custom to make it 40! Available sets that includes... set 1 - HGAC 1/144 Maganac Rashid Custom + HGAC 1/144 Abdul Custom set 2 - HGAC 1/144 Maganac Auda Custom + HGAC 1/144 Ahmad Custom set 3 - 36 pieces of HGAC 1/144 Maganac variants that includes more equipment and armor variations to produce more Maganac corp unit type. Complete the set of 40 Maganac corps unit by buying all sets! I want set 1 & set 2, but if I don't have the budget I'll settle for set 1 only. I definitely do not have space for 40 Maganacs lol Quote
Big s Posted April 22, 2019 Posted April 22, 2019 To be honest, I don’t have time for 40 kits of anything. But the other 2 sets are must buys. Quote
seti88 Posted April 23, 2019 Posted April 23, 2019 (edited) A worthy match for the RG sazabi? Edited April 23, 2019 by seti88 Quote
anime52k8 Posted April 23, 2019 Posted April 23, 2019 Well isn't that sexy. I still need to build my Nu ver. Ka but I don't feel up to doing it properly. Quote
Sanity is Optional Posted April 23, 2019 Posted April 23, 2019 My fingers are cramping just imagining the funnels. I need one. Hopefully they're using the RG frame for the hinges on the funnels, as that would be worlds above the MG's mechanism (that gets floppy). Quote
