Ah damnit! Every time I say this is the last Gunpla model that I'll buy bandai finds a way to keep getting money from me
ReplyDeleteI am not sure if I am surprised or not. I am not surprised they are doing a Banshee but I was thinking they might try the regular Banshee first. Though that would be a brick for the arms. I am also surprised they are doing the yellow psycoframe with the Norn as they always like to show it with the blue/green psycoframe
ReplyDeleteMy guess is that they are going to include the conversion parts for the regular Banshee. According to Gundam Wikia, the PG Unicorn was (http://gundam.wikia.com/wiki/Perfect_Grade) 20,000 Yen. So my guess with the extra 2,000 Yen might be parts for the regular Banshee's weapons? I mean most of it will just be a recolor of the PG Unicorn right? And then with the add on weapons.
DeleteWrong! The conversion parts are P-Bandai!
DeleteOh my...!!!! OH MY!!!!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteA September release for a PG? To be honest, I was expecting for this to be a P-Bandai release. I guess since it is not, then we can expect like the Norn (green & yellow) to be P-Bandai add on sets along with like another LED set. Oh and I expect to see a P-Bandai for the green Full Armor Unicorn.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, I was kind of hoping for a PG Exia or PG 00 Qan[t] next. I guess Bandai isn't done milking the Unicorn series still.
No one cares if you want a PG Exia or PG Qant. they werent as popular as the 00 raiser and no one cares about your wishlist.
Deletei rather see a PG Sinanju next. THAT would be a Great Kit.
Nope, it will not be a P-Bandai release because it isn't just a simple recolor and it has a big role in Episode 7 (and it being a P-Bandai as a MG is pure BS on Bandai's part). Anyways, this whole P-Bandai project is still a big BS.
DeleteAnd being part of the UC timeline, Unicorn will enjoy future releases since kits from that timeline are still selling very well despite their series ended, although having a new series will surely boost their sales more.
I guess you're not done milking your stupid 00 gundam wishlist
DeleteTsk Tsk, suiton. when will you get it through your thick skull? bandai will NEVER make kits just for you. they dont give a crap about your wishlist. they will make kits their way and dont care what consumers have against the kits.
Deletei'm actually excited to see this kit in PG as well as any other kit get PG treatment other than the Exia and Qant, the NT-! Alex. THAT would be a great PG.
for ever time suitons mentions his wishlist take a shot
Delete2 shots if he mentions p-bandai
Would love a pg nadaleeh / virtue. Would be cool to see the armor splitting on a pg.
DeleteYeah suiton, I'd like to see PG Quan[t], or, more probably Exia. But I think Bandai is waiting for 10th anniversary of 00. Then they'll release 1st sesason suits in MG and 'll do modernized HG's. Like they had done with Seed/Destiny.
Delete1st Anonymous:you don't have to be so rude. And haven't you noticed that Bandai in PG line only does lead suits(with few exceptions)?
I'd like to see 1/60 Sinanju and Sazabi, but maybe in less-advanced counterpart to PG like MG and RE/100.
And Reborns Gundam too.;)
2nd Anonymous: And no one cares about yours and you. If you do not add anything constructive to discussion then shut up. No one listens to likes like you except bored people like me.;)
BEN: You're just being huge hipocrit here. You say that no one cares about his wishlist? Same goes to you. And PG Exia(and even Quanta) is FAAAR more probable than Ale Gundam.;)
Shut up suiton's tag team partner, Fred dekl
Deletefred dekl: I appreciate the comments. And yes. Just learn to ignore these "Anonymous" uses; especially the guy that posts as "BEN". They just have far too much time on their times and seem to be able to provide any constructive information.
DeleteI'm glad you too think that a PG for Exia or 00 Qan[T] would be a good choice. I mean I guess waiting for the 10th anniversary would be a good thing but it's already been about 6 years since Gundam 00 ended (season 2), and about 5 since the movie aired. I think it's a pretty decent amount for a relatively small PG to get released which is why I thought maybe Exia or 00 Qan[t] as they could probably reuse some things from the PG 00 Raiser to cut down on costs.
PG Banshee Norn just seems very excessive to me. I mean not only is it huge and yes I know it's like 90% reusing the PG Unicorn, but why even the Norn version?
Like with PG Unicorn, Bandai went from 1 to 2.
1 being the original, and then 2 being the "upgrade".
Yet with the Banshee, we got 2 and but most like 1 as a Premium Bandai release.
And then now we're left with both of those getting their green color version...
PG Full Armor Unicorn [Green Color ver]
PG Banshee Norn [Green Color Ver]
So Bandai is hoping that fans buy all 4?
If you deny that a PG Exia or PG 00 Qan[t] would be a good candidate for PG, then you're lying or just too dumb to realize.
Too many damn Unicorn releases across all the grades. Seriously.
I'd love to see a Quan[t] as much as the next gundam lover, same with Exia, but frankly Bandai doesn't give a rat's ass what you want suiton, and they don't care what I want, they look at the most poplular gundams and make exclusives and variants, and also frankly, Exia and Quant[t] just don't have enough popularity to justify a PG release. I personally the 00 Raiser, but that's just me.
DeleteBandai already has 1/60 Exia so they dont need to make a pg, exia doesn't have that many mechanics/details in him. Just that sliding sword/gun thing. 00 quantum will never ever be 1/60, if you try to make him hold the GN Buster Sword or Rifle its just going to fall. Exia can have a RG but unicorn cant because of those psychoframes so they just made it a PG. Thats also why the HG unicorn gundams cant transform.
DeleteWhile I wouldn't mind a PG Exia, I don't think it's a possibility in the coming future, it's already got a place in every other grade.
DeleteGundams who should have gotten the PG treatment by now though? Gundam Ez8, V2 Gundam, Gundam X, God Gundam (Seriously why hasn't this happened? He's like MADE FOR PERFECT GRADE!) and a personal one I'd really like? Perfect grade Shin Musha Gundam.
"If you deny that a PG Exia or PG 00 Qan[t] would be a good candidate for PG, then you're lying or just too dumb to realize."
DeleteVintage suiton, what a pathetic response for people who don't share similar opinions with you and stick to their more reasonable beliefs instead. Its you who is either lying to yourself or too stupid to realize that Unicorn is still selling very well and the only reason why you want your 00 golden boys in another PG kit is because of your own still untreated OCD to complete lead Gundam kit's boxes. Also, you're still upset that UC kits are still getting more kits instead of those in your stupid wishlist.
Just wait for the 00's 10th anniversary. You might have a chance.
U.C. Series will alway out sell 00 and U.C series will always take priority in model kits.. Just my thoughts.. Bandai doesnt care what you or a particular consumer thinks. Bandai only cares about public demands and popularity.. when you look into a business point of view, any business/company will not make any product that is not popular or low in demand...
DeleteThey did it...Bandai actually did it. And it's not a P-Bandai Exclusive......SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY!!!!! (Still need to build the PG Unicorn :p)
ReplyDeletehmmm...
ReplyDeleteit seems that banshee is more popular than i previously thought...
or that PG unicorn sales really profitable for Bandai since launching...
looking forward to next info about this lol
The Unicorn has always been profitable. A PG kit that actually nailed the tranformation, and was actually posable, was a guaranteed money maker. Ironically the need for the base to use the LEDs is what turned it into a brick.
Deletewill it have an unchained mode as well for the back fins? Also expecting a reg banshee parts set like the FA set
ReplyDeleteUnbelievable. PG Banshee is not P-Bandai Exclusive. But I bet its LED unit and Psycho Green Frame is P-Bandai...
ReplyDeleteYou'll be able to use the standard Unicorn LED unit for the Banshee, I guarantee it. That's because the LEDs in the Unicorn set aren't colored LEDs, but UV LEDs. Those will make clear plastic light up as it passes through, regardless of what color the plastic is.
DeleteBandai will probably sell the Armed Armor VN and BS parts as P-Bandai exclusive.
ReplyDeleteTwo months later and you guessed correctly!
Deleteanyone else thinks the gold parts are going to be the same sort of gold as the Hyaku-Shiki 2.0?
ReplyDeleteI hope pg phenex too....
ReplyDeleteNo need. Just buy 2 PG Norns and a PG Full Armor set to mount the 2 D.E. on the backpack. Then add plaplate on the V fin. Then an ass load of primer and Mr.Hobby Gold Leaf
DeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
DeleteA viable option, since all the parts are already there. It is just about changing the colour and coating. Easy money-grab for Bandai.
DeleteWARNING: P-bandai exclusive Armed Amored DE for PG-unicorn gundam is comming!
ReplyDeleteOk be honest, was there anyone here who didn't see this coming?
ReplyDeleteCalled it called it called it! !!!! except they did it 6 months earlier than I thought they would! this will be my 6th PG and my first ever gunpla pre-orderpre-order! !!
ReplyDeleteBandai should put include the VN and BS as well. So fans can have Banshee and Banshee Norn in 1 same kit.
ReplyDeleteSinanju next, sinanju next, it's not a stupid wish a lot of people want it.
ReplyDeleteIt's a cool MS, but I doubt it will have a PG version, at least not before RX-93 and Sazabi.
DeleteSeeing a Nu Gundam in PG would be amazing, but think of the funnels! Huge huge arms on a base to hold those up.
DeleteMeanwhile I'm still waiting for my MG Jegan...
Ever thought about having a different collar for your shirt?
ReplyDeleteJust like your body shape defines your clothes choice, your face shape should define your collar to give you a perfect look.

I'm pretty sure that their P-Bandai release schedule for the PG Banshee will consist of:
ReplyDelete- LED lights (maybe yellow?)
- Armed Armor VN and Armed Armor BS weapon add on set
- Bansheen Norn Final Battle ver. (the green psycho frame one)
You know, this is getting ridiculous with the Unicorn kit spamming they've been doing for years now. Why couldn't they do like a PG Exia or PG 00 Qan[t]? Those two would've been awesome and they wouldn't have costed Bandai as much money to develop.
Ridiculous? Unicorn just finished last year. Of course the will release the a PG Banshee to go with the PG unicorn and no the led won't be a P Bandai release.. Why would Bandai make a PG of a shitty kit like exia or qant when the MG is such a bad design it can't even stand under its own weight. Face it OO fanboy. You picked a serious that doesn't have the popularity of the UC timeline. I'll bet good money Bandai will announce a new series before a PG exia.
DeleteWhat's really ridiculous is your wish list spamming and crying about not get what you want like a 5 year old child. Bandai does care about you and what you want they care about profit and what will actually sell. Your a prime example of the result of shitty parenting in today's society. Your just another self entitled pos that mommy and daddy gives everything to and has never had to work for some anything. Geez I'm sure most of wish our biggest concern in life was why bandai won't make that 20+ kits I want and how may different post I can spam with usless bs.
Suiton, just admit the fact that you're just upset that Bandai continues to release kits from the Unicorn line (and the UC timeline in general) along with some AU ones instead of those in your wishlists.
DeleteThe LED are just black lights, the color that shine are the colos of the plastic itself, so it is compatible with the banshee too, no need to produce another led set.
DeleteUnicorn kits will sell better than those in your ridiculous wishlist, suiton.
Deleteironic, u dont like bandai spamming a kit (which is profitable for them) and yet you dont realize that you're spamming these topics (at no gain for yourself) is quite useless
DeleteTo the first anon,
DeleteIf there was a like button,
No a love button. I would press it till my laptop breaks.
Your comment was amazing.
I get that suiton's annoying but ya'll don't gotta be so rude to him.
DeleteSo I take it that the Armed Armor VN and Armed Armor BS will be Premium Bandai releases? It doesn't look like it's included with this.
ReplyDeleteFor once you're right lol
DeleteThe armed armor VN and BS is a stupid premium should have been included with this kit
ReplyDeleteAgreed. But then again, Bandai did make a full armor expansion for the pg as a a premium. They just love manipulating their customers.
DeleteI like Marida Banshee better than Norn... big claw is always my choice...
ReplyDeleteNext pg sinanju wkwk
ReplyDeleteWill there be a green frame!?!?!?
