RG 1/144 hi-nu Gundam - Release Info, Box art and Official Images
Release Date: September 2021
Price: 4,950 Yen
From the Mobile Suit Gundam: Beltorchika's Children, emerges the Real Grade hi-nu Gundam to match the upcoming HGUC 1/144 Nightingale model kit release in 2021! The hi-nu Gundam joins the RG's 35th entry with its newly molded parts and pieces to match the standards of today's GunPla quality.
Wow, they made this one super different from the standard design and even the MG Ver ka. release. Still, looks gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteHuh, they went for the bulky look instead of the Izubuchi redesign.
ReplyDeleteYeah, most of the body proportions and features (such as the larger wings and the weaponry under the shield) come from the original design (which was also Izubuchi's) - but the detailing, the coloring and the proportions on certain parts like the skirts are definitely from the 2006 redesign.
DeleteIt's a good mix, I'd say.
This looks kinda identical same like MG Hi-Nu Gundam ver KA,but i glad the funnels are used separate runner to make way better than water decal sticker.
ReplyDeleteNot really identical. For one, the legs have a color scheme and proportions more similar to the Hi-Nu redesign.
DeleteAnd I finally have a replacement for the HGUC version! This fella is going to be bonkers, just hope they give him a few more weapons.
ReplyDeleteOk, this was expected as it could share some of the nu's aspects
ReplyDeleteWhile not a fan of the bulky look, I will get this for sure. This one looks perfect out of box.
ReplyDeleteplease, bandai, please let this be retail!
ReplyDeleteRest assured, it's labeled as retail in official website.
DeleteIt's flagged as regular release
DeleteGuess the heavy weapons system type will be released like another year as p bandai
ReplyDeleteDon't think so bandai has the expansion set of the nu gundam they can release it as combo with the hi nu but in recolor way only thibg that they would be missing is the adapter for the shield attachment and decals and that would be all.
DeleteThis looks great! and the longer face too!
ReplyDeleteThis I like..!
ReplyDeleteGreat, alot of newly design armor!
ReplyDeletei love this thing and all that it is
ReplyDeleteI'VE WANTED A RG OF THIS MS FOR SO LONG!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteRelease Date: September 2021.....
ReplyDeletei need time mechine
I rarely preorder regular kits but this one will be an exception.
ReplyDeleteEvery design spot hits me and my excitement is over the roof!
p-bandai:
ReplyDelete1. Mega-Particle Beam Canon
2. Full Armor expansion
The 1st one have announced it and the size of the Beam Cannon is Tremendous it even oversizes the kit itself one builded and you know pose it with the Hi-Nu but the 2nd one well , as i mentioned before the RG Nu Gundam had that expansion so they can give it a recolor and well some adjustable parts for the gunpla.
DeleteI still prefer the purple-ish colour on the initial CGI. Too bad they changed it to blue in the final version....
ReplyDeleteWell Bandai Goes for the official colour setting which is blue, but yeah i prefer purple colour over blue too
DeleteWell luckily for you, all the blue parts appear to be color separated, so it's not like painting them leaning more towards purple would be difficult
DeleteIf Bandai evil enough, they will release the purple colour variant as P-Bandai :(
