MG Hi-Nu~ Finally Here

I should talk about why I'm gone from my blog for around a month but something has to come out first...

MG Hi-Nu is finally out!!


Check out the beam rifle, is it going to be in metalic plating as well?


Smaller fin funnels and propellant tanks definitely help to reduce the weight. Can he kneel properly?


Coolsome display base, and the fin funnel effects as well. Can they be used on the previous release of MG Nu Gundam?

Awesome! After so many small-sized MGs, Bandai's rolling out the giant, a preview to the greater Nightingale? Maybe, but at the moment, Gunpla lovers are going to go crazy on this one. No pictures on the rumored new bazooka yet, but the display base with Amuro Ray’s insignia is quite a bonus. This one is going to be a massive hit in the Gunpla world, I’m sure of it.

At the same time, Gunota Headlines reported that products to be released in the near future include:
  • MG Strike Noir (March, 4,725 yen),
  • HGUC Mass-Produced Gelgoog / Gelgoog Cannon (March, 1,680 yen),
  • 1/144 EX Model Hildolfr (March, 7,140 yen),
  • 1/100 Akatsuki Full Set with gold plating (March, 6,300 yen),
  • HCM-Pro Gelgoog - Kuspen version (March, 2,100 yen), and
  • HCM-Pro Mass-Produced Gelgoog - IGLOO version (March, 2,100 yen)

Looks like it’s going to be a month filled with Gelgoog :-) Nonetheless, I’m really looking forward to the big tank Hildolfr. This time it’s not a ridiculously expensive resin kit anymore, but an EX release. The scale of 1/144 is great, since you will able to pose it with HGUC Zakus. Judging by the price, I bet it’s transformable between the MS and MA mode as well, hopefully.
