HGUC Ground Type Gundam & SD Blue Duel

Clear photos of the upcoming HGUC Ground Type Gundam RX-79[G] and SD Blue Duel from The Gundam Base Side 1. Also available are more images of EMSiA Strike Noir from HappiNet Online.

HGUC Ground Type Gundam - one thing for sure, most of the parts for this kit are from HGUC Blue Destiny released not long ago. However, this kit definitely has more trick up its sleeves: the load-and-assemble cannon, the carrier backpack for the cannon, and it seems that Bandai is throwing in a newly designed display base as well. Not sure about that, I'll have to check about it again. Strange, isn't it? Blue Destiny is a space-use MS, but no display stand is given, while this Ground Type Gundam can only make short distance jumps like Zaku II, but a display stand is included.



On the other hand, I don't see any beam rifle from any of the photos on the website. Is it not included?

SD Blue Duel - the extra armors seem really bulky~ For me, it only looks good standing still :-(



EMSiA Strike Noir - Like the MG version, I don't think there will be any display stand given for this figure, and it's unclear whether it is compatible with the Action Display Stand or not.
