  1. Good work Bandai. Although AGE was severely rushed and predictable, it has one of the best HG lines next to the UC line

    1. Age probably wasn't that bad. But I do wonder how the final episode will unfold. Can't wait for the next Gundam series

    2. I think the HG 00 line was better overall. The Age kits seem to use a lot of the same joints and inner frames as the 00 season 2 kits (Gundams anyway). Articulation-wise both trump most UC kits easily.

    3. because the designs were simpler,giving them more room to focus on articulation. and as with 00, yeah they are almost 5x the number of releases of age. but a lot were just variations. and age line has been pretty generous by providing display stands.

    4. The age suits are more simpler designs than 00 which was no slouch in articulation even in season 1 kits. I guess my point is that the 00 HGs were such a huge improvement over the Seed HGs and I was expecting the same for Age. But yeah I agree Bandai including stands is awesome.

  2. Yes! I've been waiting for this! XD
    I always loved commander or custom versions of grunt suits! I'm gonna get two of these, one for Abis' colors and another custom painted.

  3. Completely unrelated well it's not completely but I hoping that the Age-1 Gransa is announced in the near future.

  4. I just got my Clanche, and I saw from the packaging and the layout of the parts that this was inevitable. Heck, the Clanche Custom model makes a blurry appearance inside the manual! Its the blurred green thing under Seric's profile.

    Regardless... halleluiah. Its been a long time coming, but I'm SO looking forward to it. Just make a Genoace O-Custom and I'll be content. ^^

  5. I am so getting the Clanche Custom, as Seric Abis is one of my personal favourite pilots of the gundam age series, alongside obright, woolf and Asemu.

    I am so getting two, one for showcase, and one for my custom colouring. XD

    Please do make the Genoace O-Custom please too!
