First, go to my blog (link at end of this post) to see the MG Dom pic.

Arg DOM it!  Bandwidth exceeded.  Only got the Akatsuki and Murasame.
OUCH my poor eyes, is Andy Waltfeld gay?  No, what am I saying, Andy
Waltfeld need a big time intervention from 5 gay guys on color
coordination.

Don't get much better than you. I got to Dom but can't see the MG Nemo and others (HKers would have fun with the HGUC Gabthelay's "Chinese Translation").



I like the Murasame, it's a rationalized Zeta, but Andy's McDonald
color scheme is unbearable.

I think the Dom is walking very well between the MG style and lineart
accuracy. I still love the old 1/144's shoulder armor most, but this

What can u tell us poor sods can't see the pics?  is the heat rod
black or yellow or translucent? Hmm checks MGs... so in the MG, it's
solid yellow and there isn't an unlit grey rod...  Is HGUC gonna match
that?


prototype, no color yet.


But otherwise... unless they FUBAR the lineart, it's not that easy
(and excusable) to screw up an HGUC Rick Dom.

is very close already. I'll buy at least 2 of this.

I think it's supposed to be Black Tri-star not Black Bi-star...

Nah, original Dom & Rick Dom. I don't collect "team" per se.



It's just in the novel. I think it's a smart move for Bandai to drive
the HGUC sales that everyone waited toooo long and bought a MG

Not that anyone cares, but I think the MG beam bazooka is ridiculous
on the vanilla Dom.  It's only tiny bit smaller then Type-100 BMFG but
minus the sturdy handles, foot rest and self-propulsion.  If the HGUC
beam bazooka is the same (scale) size it's definitely gonna be donated
to a different cause... Perhaps Dom Tropen can take it, but it's too
outrageous even for 0083.  It's about the same size as GP02A's nuke
bazooka, isn't it?

This HGUC's Beam Bazooka seems smaller than the MG version. But the MG one is based on some modeller's design so it was way too much.



already. Lucky for the very cheap me who insist to not getting the
MG, which is always NOT on discount due to popularity.

Dom is such a classic that there should be (theoretically) enough
shelf space for both MG and HGUC.

Only a few left on the wishlist: Gelgoogs, Acguy and Zock.

You're just saying, every MS else left in 0079 (except Zock, which
you mentioned below), right :-) ? I don't think there's any left
except for them!

Yep, oh no... there's Zaku I also.  So really after Rick Dom, there's
only Gelgoogs and Zaku I left for me, personally.  Unless they
unretroconn Acguy's size back to ~18m.  One is resigned to the fact
that Bandai will never release ALL the MS from one single post-0079
series.  But 0079 did get all of its MS (plus a few more) released in
1/144 and now HGUC is almost finishing the series again. It would be a
huge shame if the last few MS don't get mopped up.

Oh, if Bandai have to extend the series forever like it's trying to there'll be all MSs released in all forms (you know, infinite monkeys banging on typewriter in infinite time?). Just it may be our offsprings' models.


Ball + CB in EX form?

Well... ok EX form if need be.  I have been a consistent sucker for
0079 EX kits.

HGUC Rick Dom is gonna be 1800 Yens eh.  Compared to Dom Tropen for
1600 Yens with more gimmicks.  But but... I've been arguing Bandai
should inflat their HG/MG/PG kit prices slightly, so I'm not
complaining.     I actually _hope_ Bandai will come up with same nice
ways to make variants of this kit.  (no thanks! I don't care about
Char's Dom)
