HG 1/144 Throne Zwei & Others

The second Gundam Throne, the "crazy" one, Throne Zwei piloted by Michael Trinity is scheduled to be released next month at 1,500 Yen, which is 100 Yen less than his elder brother, Johann's Throne Eins. Unlike Throne Eins, this new model seems to be given less exposure by Bandai prior to its release. It's probably because the Team Trinity and their Gundam Thrones are being revealed quite clearly over the past three episodes, and some might have started anticipating GN Arms instead ^^

Nonetheless, Neena's Throne Drei is coming up next, April release maybe?


Red is my favorite color for Gunpla, but I don't think I'll get this one, or any of the Thrones - to save up for the four 1/100 Gundams instead.


Throne Zwei looks even more complex than Throne Eins to me.


A huge sword, and very big waist armors as well XD


From the unpainted model shown on the left, you can pretty much anticipate the amount of painting needs to be done, especially on the sword and waist armors ^^;
Also, it seems like his Fangs are non-removable.
Another two upcoming Gunplas are HGUC Nu Gundam and MG Zaku Mine Layer:

HGUC Nu Gundam



This is very much the downsized MG version of Nu Gundam, but I'm sure this HGUC model can do much better than its MG predecessor in almost all aspects because of its smaller size and better design.


Functional Fin Funnels! ^_^
MG Zaku II Mine Layer


If you look at it from the front, there's really not much difference between this 'new' Zaku and MG MS-06J, is there? ^^;
Then again, note that the color of the conductive pipes is now black instead of green (as seen on MS-06J).


One of the conductive pipes of its head is linked to the backpack instead, which is probably the most unique design of Zaku Mine Layer.
Since this is MS-06F, we pretty much get to see all the designs for the next MG Zaku already XD


I'm very sure I'll not get this new Zaku ^^;
