  1. Unless I missed something, I don't think we've heard anything about a non-metallic color version. There better be news about a normal release soon. Too much hype went into this thing for the game, and it was apparently given the same amount of planning as a regular HG for it to be a limited tie-in release.

    1. Actually, now that I'm looking closer at it, it actually looks like it took less planning than most modern HGs. It looks like it's only molded (or in this case, plated) in three colors: Blue, dark navy blue/purple, and grey. All the other colors appear to be stickers.

    2. and i thought the design of the mobile suit and the shape of the mold is what compromised most of the planning. silly me.

    3. I think those weapons mostly came from other kits. One of the other reviews only had the beam sabers and the smaller guns built into the arms.

  2. Well, I still hope that it will have a normal non metallic coloured version release with its full armaments.

  3. How did he get the Build Booster Mk II onto it? I have the Pale Rider myself but I see no way for it to mount on.

    1. He probably used one of the connection pieces from another Booster unit. I have the Dark Matter Booster on the back of my Pale Rider after taking the original backpack unit off and it's a very tight fit.
