Wow. Bandai used to take promotional pictures of the actual model when it is gold plated/coated. Incorporating some convinient poses plus clever lighting and and camera angles to hide the nubmarks.. I'm surprised they used CG this time. Whicg esentially "lies" more about the oob product.
I think I'll just wait for the Real Grade version they're almost certain to make eventually. It'll probably be a P-Bandai release and an even pricier one than usual due to the gold coating, but if this HGUC Phenex is going to cost around 50 bucks anyway, I'd rather save my money for RG quality.
I want one but with these nub marks!? Under gating is a must with these plated kits! How bout an rg? The normal one and the banshee have rg versions but this hasn't. Really disappointing.. .
While it's nice to finally have a U-Mode Phenex; why does it have to be the chrome one!? Why not just flat gold like the first NT Phenex? It's not even chrome in the movie so these plated kits should be kept to P-Bandai/Gundam Base.
Looks great. Though still sucks that it is still the old Unicorn HG so those ugly nub marks and seam lines will be a thing.

It's nt-d mode was released as regular flat gold and plated gold, both of them are retail.
DeleteThe RG later on is gonna be lit!
ReplyDeleteBandai want to fool us with an old HG lol
ReplyDeleteBandai is trying to re-release the same old HG? LOL The RG Phenex NT is what most people want.
ReplyDeleteOne of the coolest box art I've ever seen
