Big s Posted February 6, 2020 Posted February 6, 2020 I’m not sure if I should get that or wait for a hg kit. The recent hg kits have been nice. I guess I’m torn between the detail as a compromise to the accuracy of the tv version. The Leo was fun and I think hg of the tallgeese would be good as well. Quote

How sure are you there's going to be an HG kit? Quote
Big s Posted February 6, 2020 Posted February 6, 2020 Pretty sure actually. They seem to be doing a lot of hg wing kits from the series lately. They did both wing versions, the sandrock, the Leo and even the maganac. So I’m pretty sure that a suit that’s as popular as the tallgeese that it will happen. There’s also room to milk the mold and Bandai loves to do that whenever they can. They did quite a few variations of the Leo and an insane amount of maganac variations about 40 of them. So if all they gotta do is change the head on the first 2 types I can’t see them passing up the chance. Quote

Why not just get the normal RG and paint it TV colors? Quote

Big s Posted February 7, 2020 Posted February 7, 2020 I’ve never painted a real grade. But my issue isn’t the color, but the design. If a hg comes out it will probably look more like the one from the show. The rg tallgeese 3 seemed great at looking like it was from the show. The only down side was that there were no water slide decals. I guess it’s that it’s a mold for ew on the tallgeese 1 just colored like the tv version. Quote
General Rasp Posted February 7, 2020 Posted February 7, 2020 I think there is a better chance of getting a TV accurate Tallgeese from the Gundam Universe line than a HG kit. While the RG kit is accurate to the Glory of Losers manga, it is an excellent kit. They took the MG and shrank it down to HG scale. There is precedent for Bandai later making an HG kit of the same RG kits; Destiny, Freedom, and now Infinite Justice Gundam from Gundam Seed. So may take a couple of years but there is a possibility.

Sanity is Optional Posted February 7, 2020 Posted February 7, 2020 I have only one issue with the RG Tallgeese, the lower legs are too thick. Otherwise it's a great kit, though the posability is a bit limited for the legs and gun. Quote
David Hingtgen Posted February 8, 2020 Posted February 8, 2020 Glad I waited, I came *this* close to buying RG Tallgeese so many times. Being "TV series Wing", I assume Bluefin will bring it to the US? Quote

Mommar Posted February 13, 2020 Posted February 13, 2020 When did HLJ's shipping prices go Nippon-Yasan levels of Extortion? EMS for the Fazz is $50. FedEx is $100. Quote

You can try sidesevenexport.com, but it's a one manned show and requires payment upfront. Im sure the other sites as well. Sorry just too lazy to look them up atm. XD Quote
lechuck Posted February 13, 2020 Posted February 13, 2020 You could also maybe try Gentei Kits, but I can't really give any feedback as I have yet to try them. Quote

I'll vouch for Gentei kits, I've bought quite a few things from them over the years, including the Narrative Neo Zeong. Quote
Grey728 Posted February 13, 2020 Posted February 13, 2020 https://gkgundamkit.com/en/rg-1144-tallgeese-tv-colors I purchased a couple of Metal Builds (Wing and Astraea Type-F) as well as the Steel Legends Kishatrya from them. They delivered just fine. Quote
Big s Posted February 22, 2020 Posted February 22, 2020 I guess another redesign for the grand daddy. That’s a really long set of v fins Quote
Mommar Posted February 22, 2020 Posted February 22, 2020 (edited) I finally got around to building this damn thing. No paint/panel lining or decals though. Edited February 22, 2020 by Mommar Quote
