Don't Stop, Carry On - Gundam thread
- Thread starter NovaSaber
- Start date
I haven't tried standing it up on its own, but I imagine it would be what you'd expect - ie., not at all. =P That's probably why all the reviews I've seen (and some of the promo pics) with it stand-less have it propped up by the fins/Dragoons on the boosters.
I got more of a 'headless Sphinx' vibe myself.
Ooh, I can see that, too, now that you mention it.
First material is being released for Gundam: The Witch from Mercury (aka, G-Witch). First sets of models have been shown (strong mix of G-Reco and IBO vibes) and a brief video teaser (region locked, but when has THAT stopped the internet?). The series is being heralded for being the first series with a female protagonist.

Purportedly. Some of the material has indicated or referenced she will be piloting the Gundam.
Wow, and we thought Tomino would get his way in that regard, haha! This will be an interesting change.
New wave of Gundam Universe is up for preorder. Looks like Bandai is switching to two offerings per basic wave and a deluxe. Next wave will be the Leo from Wing (again, keeping on a well directed focus on Wing as a foundational series in the west). Accessories are just the machine gun and beam saber, probably as a result of the second release- the RX-78GP01Fb Zephyranthes. IE, the one with the mushroom boosters. Features rifle and beam saber.
The deluxe figure this wave is the 00 Raiser, featuring a removable, transformable, Raiser booster craft.

Wonder if the Leo is actually labeled as a Gundam , or if BBTS just wanted to get Gundam in the item name again. Gundam.
Well, this is officially the most I've spent on a single model kit. The HMM Geno Breaker has finally been dethroned.
Gundam Astray Gigachad Frame.
Surprisingly well articulated despite the extreme beefiness of the sculpt. The head gets caught sometimes on the armor around the neck, and the wrists are a little too easy to pop off if I'm not careful, but otherwise it's rock solid.
The bulk makes it a little hard to Jojo, but he can do Hildebrand instead.
Only real complaint is the grip on the sword is a little finicky. And it's not the sword that should be used for the Powered Red form, but then again, that version is 150 meters long....which, in scale, would be around four feet.
Passes through three times faster for a colon-y drop.
