    I would hope we would see the season 2 suits or the movie suits. It's not fair Setsuna get's all the love, leaving the rest of the team out in the cold. Would love to see an MG 0 Gundam or Reborns Gundam.

    The runners are cut in a way that they may be able to release the Nadleeh as a separate kit at some point. I am hoping this is the case since I want to display both models, so buying just the Nadleeh at some point would be great.

    The FAZZ? I think the MG Alex 2.0 with its chobham armor was Bandai figuring out how to engineer the Virtue. Killing two birds with one stone. At least that’s how I see it.

    I really do like the look of the Virtue. It manages to look like and absolute tank without just looking like a flying brick.
    It looks like *multiple* flying bricks slapped together over a Gundam frame and then given a bunch of big feck-off *cannons.*
    Because *guns.*
    I might need to get this kit, given that I've got the MG Dynames and I do think that the interactions between Tieria, Lockon, and Setsuna make the back half of Season 1 of 00 as strong as it is. Plus it just...looks awesome, and seems like an extremely fun build.
    Also I can't believe we got the additional figurine of him in the dress from that *one sequence* in Season 2, that's hilarious. That's almost as good as handing us the Cow in the MG Turn A.

    Thanks for making this review despite being rather far since this kit's release.
    2nd gen 00 kits would be great, though considering how long it took to finish 1st gen and how few MGs get released at all recently, I doubt they'd do it. It'd be interesting to see the Seravee with a transforming backpack though. If ever they do another cycle of 00 kits though, I think the ones from the movie would be more interesting as MGs imo.

Japan should already been/had getting them last month. US people just recently had a pretty fast and ok OOS (at least it wasn't a instant bot lock down like several other pbandai kits lately..I was able to preorder living in the states but I decided to skip it in favor of MGEX strike freedom) preorder in March and US people should be getting it in August.

    • @Slain087
      @Slain087 2 роки тому

      Likely the two areas you'll want to be careful around are the V-fin and the GN Drive. The Virtue fin is basically slapped onto/around the Nadleeh fin, and the clearance there is pretty tight. The GN drive holds up the backpack, so there might be an issue with friction peeling if you swap often between the two. Other high-friction areas include the GN Field hatches and the GN Bazooka deployment mode, but those aren't likely to leave issues visible.
