The official Bandai Hobby Site has posted a teaser image for the Master Grade Ver. Ka 20th anniversary celebration. Although, Bandai Spirits has not announced anything specific in the queue just yet, we should be able to see more details anytime soon.
What do you think it would be?
Master Grade Ver. Ka is a special GunPla line designed and produced by the veteran mecha designer, Katoki Hajime. The project started in 2002 with the release of Katoki's very own version of the RX-78-2 Gundam - with completely redesigned armors and added with Katoki signature decals.
OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENTÂ [UPDATED SEPTEMBER 29TH, 2022]
RELEASE DATE: February 2023
PRICE: 6,500 YEN

Throwing some guesses here it could be
ReplyDeleteFull armor ZZ
Zephyranthes
Ez8
also I believe that it can't be G-self because Katoki had nothing to do with that design.
But that's me, plus we'll find out soon...
To be fair, he didn't have anything to do with the Zephyranthes or Ez8 either.
Deleteuhh we already have a Full Armor ZZ, the FAZZ
Deletewe already have the FAZZ
DeleteFair enough, but he is more related in 8th MS team & Stardust Memory works than Reconguista. I just noted the milking possibilities for those, as the existing MGs are obscured as hell.
DeleteIf I wanted to be selfish I'd ask for a Kshatriya while selling a kidney for that amount of plastic ;)
The FAZZ is not the Full Armor ZZ, but it's its concept/test machine and it is not transforming.
DeleteThe MG Full Armor ZZ is rather old (year 2000, if I'm not mistaken) and it would be quite nice to have a Ver. Ka of it, to match with the FAZZ, although tbh it wouldn't be one of my priorities for a new Ver. Ka.
Still, the FAZZ ver.ka has the removable armor and all the other features of the Full Armor ZZ. They will just release a p-bandai recolor of that kit if they're going to do a Full Armor ZZ, not do a 20th anniversary announcement like this for it.
DeleteI just hope, really REALLY hope
ReplyDeletethat it's something that doesn't already either HAVE an MG, OR a Ver Ka. I don't wanna see another Ver Ka Victory Gundam, I don't wanna see another Ver Ka Unicorn, I don't wanna see a Ver Ka Nu, I don't wanna see a Ver Ka WING OF SOME MAKE OR DESCENT
If Bandai has the cojones, to finally give us the G-Self Ver Ka, LIKE WE VOTED FOR SEVERAL YEARS AGO
I would absolutely get behind that being the Ver Ka to commemorate the subline's 20th Anniversary.
I have a feeling they are going to do something dumb like a 2.0 rx78 ver ka....since its was the first ver ka...
DeletePlease do not be a anything Reguista, that design look hideious.
DeleteIt would just be nice if it was new
ReplyDeleteReally hope it's something new, but Bandai loves to rehash or milk designs. Since Ver Ka are usually universal century designs, I hope it will be the GPO2. I have a bad feeling that it's gonna be some 20th anniversary RX-78.
ReplyDeleteGP02 YES!!
DeleteI am still banking for a ver Ka gp01. The MG is so old and dated now and I honestly think it's worthy of the ver Ka line. That being said, other notables I'd like to see would be the RX-78-7 or the GP02 even (blue destiny would be cool too)
ReplyDeleteHuckebein
ReplyDeleteA GP-02A Ver. Ka would be awesome!
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't mind an MG GM Ver Ka. I also hope for an MG Strike Ver Ka though it's extremely unlikely
ReplyDeleteI think the best surprise, but at the same time predictable, would be a MG Ver KA Zaku II
ReplyDeletePlease be a new RX-79(g) or a Guncannon. These two primary mecha can really use an update.
ReplyDeletethis must be related to Hathaway's Flash, sooooo Xi or Penelope. :) Take my money
ReplyDeleteMan, could you imagine? What a beast of a Ver. Ka. that would be.
DeleteSuperior Gundam from Gundam Sentinels would be nice
ReplyDeleteAny idea when they're going to announce it? They're always so vague when the post this stuff.
