I am honestly really looking forward to this. I dig the colorscheme, the decals elevate the look so much, the cannon looks badass, and overall I can only be excited for this.
I'm looking forward to it as well! I wish they had released this instead of the original Local Type. The Gundam Local Type was SO basic and extremely boring. This version makes it a LOT more interesting- and gives extra play options with the new backpack!
Wait, the MG Origin was released twice and neither came with the alternate backpack? What a bummer!
Chances are though that they'll likely release a third version with the backpack though. The Origin OVA is rapidly approaching the beginning of the orignal MSG- and both the Guntank early type and Guncannon First Type have their runners designed so that making the Guncannon and Guntank Origin a breeze.
I'm really hoping for an Origin White Base team- with hopefully an Origin GM (since its even closer to the Gundam than the original) to go along with all the Zeon Origin MS already released. Of course I wouldn't say no to an Origin Gouf, Dom, Gogg, etc, either!

What the...just release a 1/144 HG RX-78-02 Gundam already! We already have a HG Char's Zaku II Origin, quit teasing us Bandai!

DeleteThis kit deserves a MG one.
DeleteThis is the backpack that the MG origin deserved! 5 thrusters!
