Dunno if this is the better place to ask or the Gunpla thread... or the Gundam show thread... but whatever:

GundamModelCenter recently showed off a Daban "Astray Destiny Gundam" model kit. Is that just Daban mashing the two different runner sets together, or was there actually a canon/Bandai-released Astray [X] Frame model kit/MB/etc. that included a Destiny Gundam backpack?

Actually, there is an official Bandai release of this kit in celebration of the 20th Anniversary of The Gundam Base in Korea. Hence, the 'GBK20' on its wings.

Here's Mecha Gaikotsu's review on the GBK-20:

 

And yes, we have a lot of Gundam-related thread. But since this is a 3P Gunpla kit and not a metal/chogokin figure, best to post it in the Third Party Gundam thread. ;)

Ah, I see. I wondered about that decal, though it might just be fancy fluff.

And yeah, I figured it could go there as well. I took a bet on a potential official product being a MB instead of a model kit; I gave it about even odds of being either. :lol:

Just wait 6-12 months. Daban will likely come out with a replica for dirt cheap

I know this might be a stretch here but do you guys know where to buy used film from movies online? I know there is a market for this and I just found out that the Gundam Seed Freedom movie had limited edition film strips.

Trying to find something from the beach series with Kira and Lacus without spending $200+ for it on ebay 

Anyone have any leads on where get an item like this?

I just saw this on Netflix when it released and I have to say that the design of the Gundam EX really sparked something with me.  Also, the show made the GM machine seem less like cannon fodder made of explodium armor.  I Love that this is getting a Chogokin release and I hope that someday I will be able to afford one.  This is quickly becoming one of my preferred Gundam designs since Gundam Exia and Gundam 00 Raiser.
