Winning (duh) Gundam
11 years ago
:P Yeah yeah, I made a Charlie Sheen pun...but when the girl in Gundam Build Fighters Tri (Try really? Tri makes more sense) pilots a SD styled model called Winning Gundam you can't help it. But yes, in this fall, Sunrise is premiering two Gundam anime in the fall - Gundam Build Fighters Tri and Reconquesta G (Recongista G), done by "Kill Em All" Tomino. I'll watch both of them as time allows but I'm more into watching Tri since the mecha and all in Reconquesta are rather unconventional for Gundam designs (like...the Grimoire resembling Votoms than normal monoeyed grunt suits). On the other hand, I actually like the design of the G-Arcane and I've actually preordered that off HLJ (with the G-Self Atmospheric unit). Also preordered the Z-II and Build Burning Gundam.
Speaking of Gundam...Bandai is making another set of custom parts to go with HG models again. I just wish they'd make them as a purchasable set because I'd bet everyone would order those. I'd personally love to get set B with the Gatling gun (though some think it's from G05, I think it's the Kampfer Amazing's Gatling gun) though A set has the Zaku I's G3 canister launcher and Hizack Custom's beam launcher (dear Bandai...please make an updated Hizack!). The second bunch coming out in August (for Japan at least) has the GINN's missle pods, the modified Gelgoog rifle (for either a GM Sniper or the ReGelg) and a DOM Original Spec's drill lance and Desert Zaku's tomahawk (and a petite mobile suit which looks like the one that comes from Char's Counterattack).
In other news...I missed a chance for a special Vivilion by Mystery Gift that has a new move...but Vivilion isn't that special (unlike the Pokebank Celebi). But geeze...we are getting some crazy Megas coming in Alpha Sapphire and Omega Ruby...like a Mega Metagross (if it wasn't already a sledgehammer) and a Mega Sceptile (though why...why Grass/Dragon. Just point a Delibird and it will keel over fast). I might consider getting another 2DS so I can actually use real trading to keep my Mega Stones and all. But...where's the event I can get a Diancie with or when will Hoopa become official?
And finally...you better collar those Wolves because Games Workshop is launching the 7th Edition codex for the Space Wolves...with a new flyer(s), Mr. Freeze's gun and a new special character Dreadnought alongside Bjorn. The flyers look meh to me but the new Venerable Dreadnought for the Wolves looks sweet - a Blizzard Shield and big honkin' Frost Axe really makes it unique like the Blood Angel's Furioso Dreadnoughts. But still...all those frost cannons - someone been working with Mr. Freeze lately? XP Though...the flyers' design reminds me of the Caeteus Ram from Forge World - will we be seeing one of those for all the Astartes in official GW form?
I guess that's all for now it seems - enjoy your Dakka, balls and nub marks. :P
