Not-So-New Gunplas

Like the title suggests, some of the Gunplas we are getting this month are not exactly new. ^^; They consist of three recolored SEED Frame Astray models and one bundled HGUC set. Good for those who haven't get the earlier releases of these mecha, but for those who are not going to fall for Bandai's money-milking scheme, you can start crossing your fingers and wait for the arrival of GN Arms next month ^^

Possibly the heaviest armed MG so far?

The huge 'SEED Frame Astray' clear sticker is meant for the display stand, but there none included for this kit ^^;

Like HG 1/144 Alec Ladd's Customized Kerberos BuCUE Hound, there's a piece of clear sticker for the display stand which is absent from this kit.

HGUC Char's Rick Dom vs Gundam G-3 - According to the construction manual, this kit only allows you to assemble Rick Dom, and you won't get the compatible parts to convert it to Dom as seen from the original HGUC Dom/Rick Dom. Luckily both the Mega Beam Cannon and Giant Bazooka are included.

Unlike the previous three bundled HGUC sets of Operation V, Gryphios War and Zeon Amphibious MS, the clear sticker given this time is a bit 'stingy' XD
