An open the box preview for the soon to be released MG 1/100 Musha Gundam Mk-II with all the runners & build manual. A good read before the actual purchase.
Yeah no undergates for gold part.... sad. And this one doesn't have the custom stickers either. Makes me wonder if the shipment to US would have it. Eventhough I most likely wouldn't use them, but is nice to have them.
OK, I've got to ask - what's so great about this MS? No, I'm not flaming/whatever - I just don't find this "Gundam" attractive *at all* - which is something very rare for me :) That's why I'd like to hear what other people find attractive in this model.
I love the Samurai look on this kit and the original Musha along with the fact it's got nice solid weapons in the katanas and naginata, not to mention this is using the Gundam Mk-II as a base so I've got high hopes for the articulation. I'll probably pick up a Musha Mk-I to go with it for some feudal themed pictures..or just pose it with the Mk-II AEUG colors. That's just me though- different strokes for different folks and all.
@Igro: I know exactly what you mean. If you asked me the same question about this kit a year back, I would've told you I didn't likt it. But my tastes for Gundams have expanded over the years... and now I really dig these Samurai themed Gundams, and also the BB Gundam from the Battle Brave Series. They are really a work of art... especially love the katanas & naginata that Lupes mentioned.

No undergates for the chromed/gold parts? That's a shame, but not enough of one to stop me from getting this kit.

ReplyDeleteThanks for your replies, guys :) I guess I'm just not there yet - maybe I'll change my mind once I see your awesome builds :D
