  2. For some reason the handle of the beam jitte ( not the revolving launcher or the effect part) seems to be colored in the beam magnums ammo color, checking the new runners, the handle inst molded in that color (http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-mb-a0-aH3IA/U5VOVXflofI/AAAAAAAGF68/NC6A9WmpEZ0/s1600/4545334.jpg) Oh well that is what paint is for,in other things the revolving launcher and the XC look amazing, not regretting buying it!

  4. A little annoyed that this is an exclusive release, when the Unicorn Phoenix should have been exclusive instead. Bandai can be so weird some times. I guess I'll have to hope that I can find a really good deal for it online though I will probably go with GG Infinite or maybe find a seller on eBay?

    This guy will look really nice next to my SD Unicorn Banshee Norn.

    2. ^This comment made my day. Also waiting for that kit... or for Bandai to release a standard release MG Banshee Norn Green frame next year after everyone already paid over $100 for the P-Bandai one.

    3. Screw Chinese knockoff crap. Shite quality from shite bootleggers. I agree i hate P-Bandai too but not as much as knockoff crap.

  5. Gotta love how Master File top coats his kits.

    1. ...that's top coated?

      Doesn't look flat or glossed, I don't see no pearl (lel) nor any traces of semi gloss?

      If it is it would be to make them easier to see the detail, not that I see a spot of paint

    2. It looks like a flat finish to me. It doesn't have that cheap plastic look.

  6. I can't tell if they finally gave us a piece for the black on the base of the horn or if they painted it/used the sticker.

    1. Do you like the Norn equipment so much that you'll pay nearly double the price of other MG Banshee? Yes or no? Not that hard dude.

  9. I am definitely well aware of the new plates but for this photo:

    https://fbcdn-sphotos-f-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-xpf1/t1.0-9/10441957_764699160218124_4919812085530372323_n.jpg

    The Stickers are clearly seen there. It looks like it was peeling off or it was not placed well or flattened out.

    Have you even noticed the plate that you just posted in the picture? it has a dark yellow color while this one isn't. C'mon guys, i'm pretty sure you can notice it. (-_-)

    1. And then look at this

      http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-FR3BsUm4X-I/U5tMItSxvaI/AAAAAAAGHqA/lqNBgcMRvdE/s1600/mg_bansee-n_16.jpg

      it's clearly new plates, not sticker. Beside that, I don't think foil sticker can bulging like that. And

      Look at left XC fin, it have same "bulge" placement, more like rest of uncleaned gates here. Can a mistake like peeled off, not placed or flattened out sticker have same position like a mirror at each other? And about dark yellow color one looks like because of studio's lighting when this review was taken.

  10. That's not a sticker, you idiot. It's a clear part under a glossy yellow part.

  11. It's clearly not a sticker. It's just some mold defect imo, like the plastic are not properly combined during the molding. This can occasionally be found in bandai's light colour plastic such as in the original hguc banshee's yellow psycoframe. if you take a look at the banshee norn unicorn mode's closed xc, you can see that the yellow things are to thick to be sticker.





    Or if you still want to believe that it is stickers, let just have a bet. $10 for it not being s sticker.
