>>>>>>>>>>>>> Didn't Bandai do something similar when they announced the MG Z'Gok? I think they displayed some scratch built models from Hobby Japan to show what it could potentially look like. I think we will probably see a MG based on the concept drawings in the background. The 2 models on display are just there to show what the potential might be. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>
That makes the most sense. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> They will probably keep the lineart look of TurnA and reconn an inner frame to it (like the changes to RX-78's supposed monocoque design, let's not get into that one again!). >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> I wonder how they will handle the knew poseability without retroconning it too much... >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> TurnA is an interesting choice, to say the least. If they take the approach of Hobby Japan and move it more towards a mainstream Gundam design, it could be interesting. I am surprised they tied the TurnA release to the 100th MG, one would of thought the DVD release last year would have been a better time for it. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> I like the Turn A, and even the retrocon, but I would just as soon get the vanilla version too. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> While the last few MG releases have been interesting (Crossbone(s), Strike Freedom, V2 bad guys, Hi-Nu) these releases don't seem to have generate the same fanfare as the earlier release. I don't see a lot excitement on the web about these. In a lot of ways, I feel the current generation of MG are over-engineered, making them too expensive and not very suitable to customization, which the die-hard modelers always do. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Personally I like the new engineering. The price isn't that much over the version 1 kits. I think there are still lots of room for customizations. The difference is that now customization is more for aesthetics instead of compensating for engineering flaws. -------------------------------------------------- The Gundam Mailing List MK-II [email protected] Archives: http://www.gundam.com/gml Help: Email [EMAIL PROTECTED] with this in the BODY: help list
