  4. 12,000 yen = 120 USD... That means GG will charge at least 175 USD, plus 10% tax, plus 15 USD shipping...

    2. Dude, it's not an HG, it's a Master Grade

    3. You are in the wrong blog entry. This is for the MG, not the re-release of the HG.

      In any case, this is an online exclusive, meaning it's meant only for the fans of the said unit. Not for people who think they're smarter than Bandai.

    10. Give the guy a break. Even I thought it was the remastered HG release when I was just flipping through the pictures. Sheesh. Even so, the cost is a little high; spot on for a titanium kit, but still high.

    11. This is a regular release :D They always put the premium Bandai logo on the kits they are showing off if they are exclusive :D

      Delete
  6. This should just be a normal release like all those lame a titanium kits bandai keeps making. I would buy this over one of those because they never made a normal version of this unlike every titanium kit has a standard version of it.

    ReplyDelete
  7. I'll just buy this for the Armed Armor DEs and pretty much not build the suit. Maybe a few removal of the shiny gold and some white and red paint, I can put those in the normal unicorn.

    1. Looks like reguler release not limited or shit like that. Funny I expect Croosbone X2 and X3 also should released as reguler instead limited jackshit that make price go high

      Delete
    2. But how can u tell its a regular release????

      Delete
    3. Because people who were at the expo claimed that he was sitting on display together with the others who were regular releases.

      Delete
    4. You can tell because it doesn't have the Premium Bandai logo on the tag telling you the name, price and release date

      Delete
  9. I've been waiting for this for so long.... =D

    1. They change it to a regular.

    2. No, its regular release, multiple sources including who was on the floor (and not like gg here who just rips from other sites) confirmed it was a regular release.

      Those who follow more than GG know said sources, I shan't say as they're a rival gunpla seller lol.

      tldr its a regular MG release, despite the huge price.

      Delete
    3. So it's premium or normal?

      Now it's kinda confusing.... =.='''

      Delete
    4. Edit: I just found out. It's a normal release as stated by HLJ.

  17. It's funny. When I first saw this as a HG, I wouldn't have touched it with a ten foot pole. Now I see the magical "MG 1/100", I'm very tempted to buy it. I do like the shiny shiny.

    ReplyDelete
  18. They should really get rid of those fingerprints lol
    12600yen....At least I won't be buyin this

  21. Can anyone point out the Sauce if this unit is indeed Canon or not? if and if so - what is the reason behind its existance?

    1. The Federation wanted to make a RX-0 Gundam unit that was superior to the Unicorn and the Banshee. So they made the Phenix. But when they sent it out to battle, it experienced a runaway psycommu and the pilot went crazy and attacked a friendly ship. That's what happens when you send out incomplete mobile suits to the field... :P

      I'll assume it was either shot down, or the Feds took it in and disassembled it because it was too dangerous.
