HGUC 1/144 AMA-X7 Shamblo - Announced? Or April Fool?

A HGUC 1/144 AMA-X7 Shamblo promo image has surfaced on the internet with a release date in August 2014 with a price tag of 12000 yen.  This news definitely should be taken with a grain of salt... as we head into the month of April (Fool).

  1. Probably a joke. This would interfere with the Neo Zeong sales if it were to be true, and I highly doubt Bandai is that foolish

  2. Wouldn't be surprised considering Bandai announced the Neo Zeong as the real deal

  3. If the real Bandai posted this as a real April Fool's joke; I'd smash some models against the wall!!!!

    4. Suiton makes a simple comment = haters hate
      Suiton makes a wishlist post = haters hate
      Suiton trolls a troll = haters don't hate

      Leave the guy alone

    5. No, because he keeps on trolling

  6. Honestly if this was announced way before us knowing of a Neo Zeong HG model, then I'd be skeptical. Now there is absolutely no reason why Bandai couldn't do this and other mobile armors.

    None the less, I will be needing a bigger shelf at this rate...

  7. The Japanese name is wrong, so···

  8. Lol ¥12000. Isn't this thing twice as big as Neo Zeong?

    1. shamblo's height is 30 m and 70 m length, while neo zeong almost 120m tall .
      i know it is only april fool but still if shamblo released in 1/144 it probably priced around 15k yen

  9. April fools, very funny GG.

  10. It's definitely fake. The Japanese text below looks like coming from machine translation.

    Happy April Fools Day!

  11. Seems like April fools...Japanese letter on bottom of the Shamblo doesn't even make sense

    ReplyDelete
  12. Just to put the nail in the coffin - this is definitely an April fools joke. Also probably not from Japan as the Japanese description is gibberish and reads like Google translate by a foreigner. The name is wrong too - it's シャンブロ , not ツヤンブロ. Also, Bandai rarely, if ever, uses English terminology such as the name of the MS (Shamblo) and tech (Minovsky) in its official ads.

  13. There is no way this only cost 12000 yen

    1. Kestrel gundam is real , its 1/144 bonus for some dengeki magazine

  15. Considering the Japanese don't observe April Fools day, I'd take it as real...

    1. I remember they joked about RG Unicorn if I recall correctly.

    2. @Anon 5:20, you're right, dude.

  16. 12k yen ruins the joke. We're looking at over (or near) 30k yen for a 1/144 Shamblo.
