Woot, Exia got wings! But legs are ugly :( This thing only use 1 GN Drive right ? Makes me wonder why the creator didn't go straight to Twin Drive Dark Raiser..
The booster looks like a 2nd GN Drive. Was under the impression those Dark Matter blades were from 1.5 Gundam's binders but looks awkward when wielded.
I actually asked the producer how he picked the suits for the show and it was based on rights and which ones fans would really get behind but Exia is Shin's Favorite he said it just has a elegance that made it so unique.
Speaking of which, I bet it would look awesome with a Tekkaman Blade color scheme. After Gundam, Tekkaman Blade is one of my all time favorite anime series
second opening confirms it is the last boss of the tournament, its shown in a silloute behind the chairmen, after scrolling over 4 suits, then 3 suits, zoom in and behind him is the silloute of the exia dark mater, with the exia core and head light glowing
I have a feeling that this along with the Miss Sazabi make up the rest of Team Nemesis. It's just pure speculation, but the members of Team Nemesis haven't really been featured apart from Aila and Gavin's appearances and both of them do have evil looking gunpla.
How the hell people think it's Amatsu lower body? You can clearly see normal Exia leg line, with modification on knee and the feet, but that's all; it's still Exia looking.
I agree another poorly done red and black color scheme. This Kit needs a lot of painting. It reminds me of the old wing and gundam x hg kits from the 90s.
Most of the build fighters series can all be made in MG form but whats taking bandai so long to change the colour and add on extra armors/weapons on the kits
All are modified Gundam Exia parts except for the legs and the backpack. The legs came from 00Quanta. Anyway the color really sucks. They must change it to look more menacing.
It's clearly R2 based, you can see the thighs(better hip joints btw) and also the two swords, one has clear part and the other doesn't (the blade of GN Sword Kai and GN Sword, now called Prominence Blade and Brinicle Blade fyi)
I do like the design, but have a mixed feeling about the massive backpack. I think a lot of people, myself included, liked Exia for its sort of clean design, without messy things hanging off like a massive back pack. That was always Seed and Seed Destiny thing to be honest. I'm not saying that massive backpacks of Seed is bad, I do like Seed, but I just think that they messed up 00 design aspects with Seed design aspects...
I'd buy this but I will probably modify a lot of stuff as well, like removing that big-ass backpack (or making it detachable if it isn't) and making the colors similar to Deathscythe hell custom, maybe paint it all black.
was thinking of doing a red/black/some other color custom palette on a 00 Raiser... actually seeing some of my ideas on this exia has made me decide they would be a bad idea and to try something else (good to know ahead of time xD )
This is BADASS! My opinion though I understand that nobody likes the huge backpack or the colors but I bet there will be some extra color given by stickers. And maybe the backpack is the new build booster.
Judging from the back connectors those large binder like things are thrusters that pivot backwards. Will likely look much better like that than the standard pose. Those spikes on the GN drive look silly though. That and the colour scheme aside, not a bad design
Most effin exia ever. Need more imorovementa when it comea to color scheme. Exia i my fav bad ass gundam. Why did they destroy it. Curse u who ever came io with this idea. Curse you!!!!
curse urself 1st because of those mixed languages. -_- destroy for ur eyes.and i think exiaDM looks more badass than the normal version because not all of gunpla fans have the same thinking like you.
Alas, Exia Dark Matter gets the harsh assumption of worthlessness based on its colors -_- Why not wait for it debut on the anime for us to decide if it's interesting or not.
Oh we're sure it's probably gonna be cool, But that awful color scheme is unacceptably awful, even if this thing has the ability to bend space and time or create galaxies :P it looks hideous.
if you look at the color and imagine it has no backpack, it's actually just exia with a color swap, the blue on the exia became red, and the white became black... with a few extra pieces here and there
but i have to agree, bad inverted colors, better to put some black on those reds, change to purple to dark brown or brownish grey and repaint the reds to match sazabi's or sinanju's red color... and maybe some lighter grey color for the frame, what do you guys think?
oh wow, i think the color should be black with grey/silver colors. the red looks so bad...imo this gunpla needs have better color scheme. imo dark matter should be black color cuz its name is Dark Matter, lol what's this Red Matter -_-
call it ugly, once that thing appears in the show and destroys every other plas, everyone will go "HOLY SHIT!!! DARK MATTER IS AWESOME!!!BEST EXIA EVER!!!! I WANT IT!!!"
Just wait for Bandai to go on a Exia Master Grade splurge announcements with Dark Matter, Repair 3, and that gray one from the 00 anime. This variant is like if Exia, Sazabi, and Deathscythe Hell EW had a 3 way love child.
this may look great and all but lets just hope it's not just for show and disappointing by being taken out in few moves, cause it's all about skills not flashy looks.
Kinda ugly in my opinion. And looks very cheap too, I mean it is just like those kind of toys I usually found selling in markets or side-vendors. Yes, I know, if I don't like it then don't buy it. I know that.
I can't wait for GBF to be over.. I do tire of these gimmicky suits that ruin their original's designs for no real reason. I really hope this gaudy thing doesn't get an MG. Save that slot for a suit that actually deserves it, like say a Jegan.
oh hell no, i'm also tired with another uc or seed mg, and to bad for you this definitely gonna get mg, they has mg Exia R2 already for the base and only need to add some new runner to make Exia BM.
So since this is Exia that we're talking about, it means it has Trans-AM mode as well, right? So who you think will win then, Trans-AM or RG System, considering the speed boost and power?
This is like the 14th or 15th times Bandai spamming 00 GAY people with the Exia, especially when you strip off it's backpack and it turns out to be just another normal Exia.
The color scheme is plain hideous in monotones that it still looks half-baked even when you finished building it, I can see that why the BuilderStrike is more stand out than this monotonous queer. Even the GM Sniper K9 and Kampfer Amazing are much more better than this.
Bandai sure enjoy all those blind patronage of GAY BAKA boys huh?
I just don't get it.. Why are there so many haters to this gunpla? -_- Red + black doesn't seem badass meh? =.='' I dunno.Maybe It doesn't really match with the thinking of ya guys. (No offensive)
I don't know why, but I am getting Vagan mobile suit vibe from the silhouette
ReplyDeleteim getting the same feeling lol.... maybe its a mix of both?
DeleteWoot, Exia got wings! But legs are ugly :(
DeleteThis thing only use 1 GN Drive right ?
Makes me wonder why the creator didn't go straight to Twin Drive Dark Raiser..

DeleteI actually asked the producer how he picked the suits for the show and it was based on rights and which ones fans would really get behind but Exia is Shin's Favorite he said it just has a elegance that made it so unique.
DeleteWhat is this? Exia Dark Matter? I will have to keep my eyes peeled on this guy for sure!
ReplyDeleteThank you for not making a MG wish list.
Delete@Anon610 SSSHHHHH!!!! Don't jinx it!
DeleteWTF... Another Exia Variation.... O_O
ReplyDeleteExia variant! Ow yeah!!! Btw, the name reminds me to Final Fantasy... -_-
ReplyDeleteI think the name dark matter it's taken from real life exotic matter.
DeleteI hope this guy also get MG, 00 needs more MG... T_T
agreed, we need us some reborns MG , i would kill for it.
DeleteAccording to Nils Nielsen, Plavsky Particles are created by bonding antiparticles together so there should be something real fun with this guy.
DeleteDark Matter? Aside from the real dark matter, it reminds me of Teitoku Kakine from the Index series.
DeleteWhere's the f*** is the GN Sword idk what number here!?
ReplyDeleteLooks like it might have a pare of GN sword IIs.
DeleteProminence Blade and Brinicle Blade
Delete1800 ¥ price tag, wonder what makes it so expensive.
ReplyDeleteExia x Deathscythe crossover? SOOOOLD!
ReplyDeleteAnother Exia Variant,looks like there is some gold frame amatsu plus some interesting shoulders i can't place in this
ReplyDeleteVOLTEKKKAAAA!!!!
DeleteYour right. It does look reminiscient of Tekkaman Blade don't it?
Deletethis will be interesting
ReplyDeleteThis for Build Fighter episode??
ReplyDeleteyes , yes it is
DeleteIm sure. It has the coding HGBF (High Grade Build Fighters).
DeleteWow..,,
Deletemust buy this model :D
*hope it's better than Exia
from what i can see from the picture it looks really cool, cant wait to see more of this guy!
ReplyDeleteMarch 2014. Hopefully we don't have to wait too long for more pictures.
ReplyDeleteCustomized 00 gunpla!! So ELS like!!
ReplyDeletedefinetly getting this
ReplyDeleteThis isn't an Exia, it's clearly a Tekkaman. Look at it.
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of which, I bet it would look awesome with a Tekkaman Blade color scheme. After Gundam, Tekkaman Blade is one of my all time favorite anime series
DeleteDamn !! Exia and dark in the same sentence ? Full win for sure !!
ReplyDeleteno...lose ;-;
Deletethis guy (exiaDM) got beaten by the 'magician' build strike..
since star build strike have magics.. =.=''
actually imo dark matter only lost cos it ran out of trans am time. i fail to see why dark matter would have lost at all had it been a fair fight
DeleteSo this has a Plavsky Drive?
ReplyDeleteThe shoulders are from Xi Gundam.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see it in the anime tho!
ReplyDeletemy exia collection is suddenly incomplete!
ReplyDeleteMaybe it's the Mk. II equivalent for the Star Build Strike.
ReplyDeleteu can do so much custom variations with exia thats what i like about exia
ReplyDeleteI came when I saw this.
ReplyDeletelooks like aegis epyon variation of exia
ReplyDeleteHope it's modified Xi shoulders, and we get HGUC Xi someday
ReplyDeleteExia with Gold Frame lower body?
ReplyDeleteThese new announcements are a glimpse into the next part of Gundam Build Fighters.
The next story arc...
shoulders are quite Penelope/Ξ feel to it.. i hope it is, then i hope it brings us to a HG Penelope/Ξ
ReplyDeleteELEVEN FUCKING PLATES!!!
ReplyDeletebut just two swords?
Thanks, Build Fighters!
ReplyDeleteThere's something a bit... "off" about this one.
ReplyDeleteThe shoulder armour reminds me of the Xi gundam
ReplyDeleteYou got my mind in there dude
DeleteExia + Regenerate / Aegis + Gold Frame Amatu
ReplyDeleteBanDai just keep on recycling kits aren't they
and yup 99% this is a enemy unit
second opening confirms it is the last boss of the tournament, its shown in a silloute behind the chairmen, after scrolling over 4 suits, then 3 suits, zoom in and behind him is the silloute of the exia dark mater, with the exia core and head light glowing
DeleteI have a feeling that this along with the Miss Sazabi make up the rest of Team Nemesis. It's just pure speculation, but the members of Team Nemesis haven't really been featured apart from Aila and Gavin's appearances and both of them do have evil looking gunpla.
ReplyDeletehmmm, HGBF, wonder when I can see him in action in the anime
ReplyDeleteHow the hell people think it's Amatsu lower body? You can clearly see normal Exia leg line, with modification on knee and the feet, but that's all; it's still Exia looking.
ReplyDeleteHmm... smaller feet? Could this be based (wishing) on a new HGAD Exia like the HGCE Strike?
ReplyDeleteHope Exia Dark Matter's pilot will be a female one.
ReplyDeleteActually guys Exia Dark Matter was a bad guy side, i mean PPSE Chairman's army to defear Reji/Sei in tournament.
ReplyDeletelooks so cheap and bad, it will need some painting to look good at least
ReplyDeleteI agree another poorly done red and black color scheme. This Kit needs a lot of painting. It reminds me of the old wing and gundam x hg kits from the 90s.
Deletemore colors u mean...?
DeleteMost of the build fighters series can all be made in MG form but whats taking bandai so long to change the colour and add on extra armors/weapons on the kits
ReplyDeleteLooks better in all black LOL
ReplyDeletethat work is, to much....
ReplyDeleteSo edgy
ReplyDeleteThe color scheme looks awful.
ReplyDeleteawful? =.=''
Deletei think it looks badass. :)
i dont know why but... i kind of dissapointed of the color... i though it will be more... Evil... :/
ReplyDeleteUgh, that color scheme looks atrocious. I was expecting a completely black Exia with a visor only...
ReplyDeleteI'm totally gonna wait for this to come here in the phillippines!!!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to take my Airbrush to this kit.
ReplyDeleteAll are modified Gundam Exia parts except for the legs and the backpack. The legs came from 00Quanta. Anyway the color really sucks. They must change it to look more menacing.
ReplyDeleteYour correct on the back pack, but the legs still belong to exia, i'm thinking the r2 mold is what they used on the upper thigh's.
DeleteIt's clearly R2 based, you can see the thighs(better hip joints btw) and also the two swords, one has clear part and the other doesn't (the blade of GN Sword Kai and GN Sword, now called Prominence Blade and Brinicle Blade fyi)
Deletethis will look a hell of a lot better once it's painted...I'm still not sure about the design
ReplyDeleteI do like the design, but have a mixed feeling about the massive backpack.
ReplyDeleteI think a lot of people, myself included, liked Exia for its sort of clean design, without messy things hanging off like a massive back pack. That was always Seed and Seed Destiny thing to be honest.
I'm not saying that massive backpacks of Seed is bad, I do like Seed, but I just think that they messed up 00 design aspects with Seed design aspects...
I'm willing to bet this kit will come with hella stickers.
ReplyDeleteI'd buy this but I will probably modify a lot of stuff as well, like removing that big-ass backpack (or making it detachable if it isn't) and making the colors similar to Deathscythe hell custom, maybe paint it all black.
ReplyDeleteWhat is this? Gurren Lagann?
ReplyDeleteI think the legs is kind short and the color too simple, I hope bandai will put anothor color on it (like gold) but I love the head and the body..
ReplyDeleteMaybe there is, like on those parts that uses grey stickers on the original Exia.
DeleteThere's a serious lack of color separation in the HGBF kits.
was thinking of doing a red/black/some other color custom palette on a 00 Raiser... actually seeing some of my ideas on this exia has made me decide they would be a bad idea and to try something else (good to know ahead of time xD )
ReplyDeleteThis is BADASS!
ReplyDeleteMy opinion though
I understand that nobody likes the huge backpack or the colors but I bet there will be some extra color given by stickers.
And maybe the backpack is the new build booster.
different with me..
Deletethe backpack n the color scheme looks badass..
my opinion. :)
I think it should have been black and purple or maybe some gold and black and some red
ReplyDeleteI hope they will replace the purple with another color like red or gold and it just me or the sword have a different effect ??
ReplyDeleteis the core has red color ?? becaus in anime it has green color
ReplyDeleteThat looks unpainted so they MIGHT have a sticker for it not sure though
Deletethe top part of the backpack looks like aile strike binder..
ReplyDeleteThe first time I saw the shadow... its cool.
ReplyDeleteNow I saw it's true form... its sooooooo uncool!!!!!
PAINT!!!! I needs the paint.!
ReplyDeleteI am getting this JUST SO I CAN FIX THAT AWFUL COLOR SCHEME!
you just about to die seeing an awful gunpla...
Deleteits not that awful anyways...-_-''
so the dark matter have two different sword..that good
ReplyDeleteand it just me or the dark matter doesn't have any sticker on it ??
Yeah, normally, bandai doesn't show the kit with the sticker until later on.
DeleteJudging from the back connectors those large binder like things are thrusters that pivot backwards. Will likely look much better like that than the standard pose. Those spikes on the GN drive look silly though. That and the colour scheme aside, not a bad design
ReplyDeleteMost effin exia ever. Need more imorovementa when it comea to color scheme. Exia i my fav bad ass gundam. Why did they destroy it. Curse u who ever came io with this idea. Curse you!!!!
ReplyDeletecurse urself 1st because of those mixed languages. -_-
Deletedestroy for ur eyes.and i think exiaDM looks more badass than the normal version
because not all of gunpla fans have the same thinking like you.
Alas, Exia Dark Matter gets the harsh assumption of worthlessness based on its colors -_-
ReplyDeleteWhy not wait for it debut on the anime for us to decide if it's interesting or not.

Gale Strike vibe?! Anyone?!
ReplyDeleteoh wow, i think the color should be black with grey/silver colors. the red looks so bad...imo this gunpla needs have better color scheme. imo dark matter should be black color cuz its name is Dark Matter, lol what's this Red Matter -_-
ReplyDeletethe 'black' not enough meh? :/
Deleteit seems like the PPSE copied Star Build Strike Build Booster, aka reverse engineering & evil counterpark of Star Build Strike Gundam.
ReplyDeleteUgh, that is an ugly color scheme. I'll stick with the original Exia.
ReplyDeleteI think the one who will piloting this exia dark matter is meijin kawaguchi or the chairman himself,well I prefer meijin though
ReplyDeletecall it ugly, once that thing appears in the show and destroys every other plas, everyone will go "HOLY SHIT!!! DARK MATTER IS AWESOME!!!BEST EXIA EVER!!!! I WANT IT!!!"
ReplyDeleteThis like if Graham's Masurao had a kid with Setsuna's Exia.....
ReplyDeleteCan't Imagine How Great it be if TRANS-AM~
ReplyDeleteAm I the only one who actually -likes- these colours?
ReplyDeleteEMO Gundam
ReplyDelete2 GN swords, normal one plus kai ver. !!
ReplyDeleteJust wait until the sticker for this exia come out then we will see the real dark matter version
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see this Exia in action!
ReplyDeleteJust wait for Bandai to go on a Exia Master Grade splurge announcements with Dark Matter, Repair 3, and that gray one from the 00 anime. This variant is like if Exia, Sazabi, and Deathscythe Hell EW had a 3 way love child.

DeleteI agree. Ready for a real gundam anime where people get hurt. Tired of the rehashed butchered up suits.
DeleteYour comment wont stop Bandai from doing so if ever! Just get over it! If you don't like the kit then don't buy it, simple as that!
DeleteI can have my opinion. I know it wont change anything bandai does. If you love it, buy the junk.
DeleteThen why are you here
Delete@ anon 5 06:57
Deleteits for his "opinion"...
i don't hate the show nor the design of the ms, but yea, i agree with anon 3 5:35, i also need "regular" gundam show.
@anon 8:35
DeleteBuild Fighters IS a "regular" Gundam show. Stop shoe-horning your ideas about what Gundam "should be" and embrace new possibilities.
oddly it gives me flashbacks of tekkaman evil from tekkaman blade series
ReplyDeleteAll that big back pack kind of wrecks Exia's sleek design. The swords and color scheme aren't bad though.
ReplyDeleteGn sword 1 and gn sword kai! Cant wait to see this in action... just hoping to see quanta in action as well but iguess it wont hapen...
ReplyDeleteThese new images shed this kit in a totally different light. This kit will be FANTASTIC!
ReplyDeleteSo since this is Exia that we're talking about, it means it has Trans-AM mode as well, right? So who you think will win then, Trans-AM or RG System, considering the speed boost and power?

Will trans-am be the original exia colors? I'm already sold on getting this Exia variation.
ReplyDeleteWill this ever be in an Mg???
ReplyDeleteScrew the watermark. Hope gginfinite folds up.
ReplyDeleteF*ck yourself, dude.
Deletein the anime it looks more badass, damn... will get it soon
ReplyDelete00 + Vegan
ReplyDeleteI see what they did there, sneaky.
This is so badass, but they need to hurry up and make a kit for Exia Amazing. Or just give us MGs for both of them.
ReplyDelete...This Unit reminds me of the 1.5 gundam type dark...
ReplyDeletehttp://gundam.wikia.com/wiki/CB-001.5D2_1.5_Gundam_Type_Dark
O_+
Wii there be an Amazing Exia (Complete) model kit?
ReplyDeleteI just don't get it..
ReplyDeleteWhy are there so many haters to this gunpla? -_-
Red + black doesn't seem badass meh? =.=''
I dunno.Maybe It doesn't really match with the thinking of ya guys.
(No offensive)
They just trolling around, to make some fan mad. thats all.
