see a MG Unicorn Gundam for a while though...
Well "MG100" is just a made-up promo gimmick. The real point is that
MG Unicorn isn't in the offerings out to November or even December.
Seems that with Seed and Unicorn the pattern is set: new series
doesn't get MG treatment until it's proven itself in the rating (or
for Turn-A, some excuse to highlight a made-up milestone).
Is there a new sense of confidence in Bandai's merchandising strategy?
For a few years now Bandai had played it very close to the chest,
often giving us barely two months notice advanced of a kit's release.
Now we are getting a complete release schedule covering 5-6 months in
advance (come to think of it, also for SD Sangokuden). A few
observations:
* the cheap kits finally get a proper name: "FG"
* no 1/100 kits?
* has HCMP replaced MSIA?
* is "Virtue" less important than the other three? Is it really a
quartet or a trio plus excess luggage?
