What the—!? Are they seriously gonna release it under retail?! Dammit!! And now I'm scratching my head because I already build the regular one not so long ago!
I kind of think that Bandai does these(this and XN Raiser) now to sell the extra prints they have in a addition to the new parts. I wouldn't say that the 00 series MG's are not selling, but as a fan, I really hope for MG's of the other pilots after this one. Even as a P-Bandai.
If it's anything like kits we have seen in the past, this being a parts variant of the original release probably means the GN Sword V will be included, though the instructions may skip it.
Bandai's logic: let's release the full saber add-on as a new kit without the original's gn sword iv thus 00 die-hard fans will buy both qant kits, and we'll get more money.

ReplyDeleteBit of an odd choice, but it's low cost (for Bandai) and something they can slot in among bigger ticket items.
DeleteI am glad I waited on this one. The Full Saber looks pretty awesome.

ReplyDeleteIt took 20 years to get MG's of all the Gundam Wing protagonist MS.
DeleteSo who knows? Give it another decade....
Definitely getting it
ReplyDeleteWould've preferred the MG Exia Avalanche honestly.
ReplyDeletethey released that but it's p-bandai
DeleteI'm confused why are they pointing out the V-fin?
ReplyDeleteIt's an upgraded V-fin. Longer and sleeker looking than the original.
DeleteIt is actually a new piece. It looks to be more tapered than the original.
DeleteI didn't build the original version, why is the V fin pointed out?
ReplyDeleteIts a little bit bigger
DeleteWhere is the original saber?
ReplyDeleteIf you mean the GN Sword iv then I don't think you get it based on it missing from all the accesory pics
DeleteI was wondering the same... wtf...
DeleteI doubt the excluded the original model's sword. They probably only wanted to show the main parts.

DeleteIt might still come with it and those pics are just showcasing the new parts who knows
DeleteThe Gunpla's HobbyLink page mentions that the GN Sword V is included,but who knows
