Perfect Grade Hi-Nu Gundam!

Conversion pack actually ^^;

One of the upcoming awesomeness from G-System is the conversion pack of 1/72 scale Hi-Nu Gundam for PG Strike Gundam. It sounded like a very long shot when I first heard of that project, since the two Gundams are from different timeline, and their mecha designs are completely different as well.

But apparently, the company has successfully bridged the diversity between the two Gundams, well, at least they are half-way there already :)


From the outside, there's almost no component from PG Strike visible to show that it's a conversion kit, except for the upper arm and the elbow joint. I suppose the inner frame will be mainly from the PG kit though.


Unbelievable mecha details o_0, as usual for G-System quality.


G-System's Hi-Nu follows the design of the more heavyweight original Hi-Nu, and not the re-designed MG version.


The main difference between the original and the re-designed version is the bird beak-like tail binder, bigger and longer fuel tanks, and bigger rocket thrusters.



Now I'm waiting for the other half to be completed and painted to get more Hi-Nu intoxication ^^


In terms of details, the rifle looks better than the one in the MG version. Don't you think so?

On the other hand, G-System is releasing Qubeley Mk. II based on their previous Haman Kahn's version launched two months ago. While the parts are all the same, a new slide of gold decal is included.


The cute Ple Two decal on the right shoulder binder looked very MG-like XD




The clear display stand included seems to be a new design from G-System as well.



Just look at the shiny red painting o_O
