I'm sold. High Grades are making leaps and bounds in engineering.

 

i barely pay attention to hg but if this is a way of them saying that hg is making its next big step, then im back in.
that is to say if this isn't just a one and done thing done exclusively for this iteration of the rx-78, but at the same time i wouldnt be surprised if that was the case.

 

Reminds me of a Revoltech for some reason.. the peg and post articulation is.. interesting.

first coat of silver, brushed on dilute on purpose.. I need to finish fixing my airbrush.



I also realized there is no pommel cap for this though..

 

Those hips look like shit, though.

 

as always, looking good chief

 

Seems like ever since the GEP Zeta they've been really stepping up the engineering on the HG kits. I'm looking forward to working my way up to some of those. That RX-78 looks nice!

...I kind of want that purple Woundwort.

 

ID Gundam's got some interesting design elements, but I'm really not sold. The joints, while amazingly mobile, kinda look like shit. Which is interesting in itself because they imitate some of the more novel joint designs in contemporary real-world humanoid robots.

Also, I has a sad because nothing they've revealed has me wanting to open my wallet (except Hyzenthlay II-Rah, but that was already an announced given).

 

its almost here

 

『ガンダムSEED DESTINY』ブラストインパルスガンダムがMGガンプラ化！新規造形のブラストシルエットは多彩なギミックを搭載！

 

I'm digging that RX-78, I am of course in love with the HiRM God Gundam, and it's about time they showed a RG Phenex.

Gold Chrome RG Unicorn mold though. That's gonna be expensive!

 

more pictures of the penelope


and barbatos

 

Penelope looks beautiful. Seeing Barbatos now makes me almost glad I skipped on the Full Mechanics kit and the HiRM.

D'awwwww... yeah I want one for my niece, who doesn't??!

Take this. My money, your wallet, and all of my supplies!!! GodHand Nippers!!!!!

Like i said, it reminds me somehow of a Revoltech figure mixed with one of Kaiyodo's old Evangelion figures, the ones with the sliding post joints, it's not a direct hinge motion joint but follows a given post and rotates to a near seamless look... though, in a way, it's kind of like Atlas Gundam, without the jazz.

 

This isn't really gundam but it's kinda cool

 

I'd like to think I got a lot of good work out of this... but I didn't really

right when I'm almost done too.... now what?

 

Holy shit, that Industrial RX-78 is disgustingly sexy. I NEED that in my life. Penelope is also sexy. Fuckin' HiRM God Gundam wow. The console plamo!? WOW!! Want that stuff too!!

 

MG FAZZ ver. ka costs as much as RG Phenex.

fuck.

 

RG Phenex is P-Bandai. Those dirty, dirty mother fuckers. I have to get it out of principle. Have the other two brothers anyways.

 

a quick look at the G40's joint designs

 

it costs MORE than FAZZ ver. ka gotDAMN
