This is GAT-X105E Strike Noir, the main character for the upcoming SEED Stargazer. I have to admit it, Bandai is really very good in repackaging some of the old designs from previous SEED mecha, and still got enough confidence to throw them at you in some flashy animation. For me, Strike Noir is the combination of the following:- Head & shoulders: Akatsuki
- Body & legs: Strike Gundam
- Backpack wing unit: Astray Blue Frame 2L and Freedom Gundam (for the railgun-alike weapon)
- Waist pistols: ZGMF-X12A (RGX-00) Testament Gundam
There, can you see it? There's hardly anything new about this mecha. So, Bandai and Sunrise, please be more creative~~~~ -_-++
