The regular MG release was the Heavy Arms EW. The Heavy Arms Kai is more like a repaint of the first-generation, but with a pair of double gatling guns.
Same also with Altron which is just a repaint of the Shenlong but with a pair of long dragon pincers.
I expect the same with Sandrock Kai as that's just a repaint of the Sandrock but with ridiculously bigger heat shotels.
Both sandrock we and kai have giant heat shotels. The only difference is sandrick kai has a slightly different color scheme no shield, no machine gun, and with has a armor cloke.
Following that reasoning, It seems that the Deathscythe Hell was released before because it modifies the suit armor way too much for bandai to release it in another colour / p-bandai form. Like the regular Wing Zero EW, which has the wings and stuff.
The sucky thing about this one is that all those skyblue parts on the shoulders and skirts are gonna be decals, as I know the torso ones are plastic in the original release.
@alforata I think it's about momentum after all. Deathschyte Hell released when bandai still pumping out MG from EW, then there's no announcement about following upgrade suit in a long time. And bandai put Nataku and HA Kai as P-Bandai because they reusing old kit as base. I know MG EW aren't too old, but it still considered as "not fresh anymore" by bandai, like when they announce MG Crossbone X2 and X3. As for Wing Zero, it's main suit from Wing, there's no reason for bandai to release it as P-Bandai thanks to main character status, and Wing Zero EW released before bandai going P-Bandai route so much like now.
No deathscyth and wing zero are more popular suit designs than the other we suits. It has nothing to do with the deathscyth hell we parts /wings. In fact most pbandai recolor mg kits come with a ton of extra parts because it is easy to cast multiple full sets of runners in different colors then modify existing runners to fit the color scheme they want. For example the mg unicorn zgok comes with enough parts you can build 1 complete zgok and about half of a second one.
Alforata. Deathscyth hell custom ew was a regular released kit because of its popularity the same goes for wing zero custom ew. Heavyarms custom ew isn't a popular design like sandrock, and altron. P bandai is for kits that are guaranteed to sell well and recolors. It has nothing to do with parts count. In fact a large number of recolor mg kits come with a ton of extra armor parts because it's cheaper to do two separate color prints them mod or make a new model.
P bandai again. And then unicorn,unicorn,unicorn,astray,astray,aastray,strike freedom,freedom and again and again and again. No fresh new kits. Please bandai. Makes something worth.
Eh, bandai ALWAYS make fresh new kits, especially when new series are starting. They're just company who need profit anyway and they NEVER force you to always buys every product they release.
You are delusional if you thought Bandai wouldn't make MG Heavyarms Kai EW a Premium Bandai release. Look at the previous few MGs from Wing. Altron EW, Tallgeese 3 EW, Tallgeese 2...All of those are Premium Bandai kits. It sucks, but on the flip side, at least we have the kit and can buy one later, right? With that said, MG Sandrock Kai EW will most likely be another Premium Bandai release. It'll probably have all of the same parts as the MG Sandrock EW but of course in different colors, hopefully the cloak thing from the movie
I'm happy about a MG of this existing. Everything else about it, I hate. I don't understand why release the first "season" suits plus Epyon,Proto Zero, Custom, and Hell but everything else is Exclusive? I'll buy this even though Kai is my favorite. As always, I'm going to hate having to pay the premium. How in the WORLD was that Astray kit not P Bandai but this is? I've never even heard of that no name ugly pin cushion of a Blue Frame...
love this wish i could find a dealer who doesnt want the money right away for the pre order.

DeleteTry nipponyassan you can pre-order an item and payou it later
DeleteRXSLINGER, can you put here the link to this site that sends pbandai to other countries outside Asia?
DeleteMuch thanks!
god damn it bandi! altron was bad enough. but seriously, guess anymore EW MG will be p-bandi
ReplyDeleteWth??..another exclusive? Where are the regular release mg???

Don't forget Sandrock ABC mantle.

DeleteThe shotels are exactly the same on both Sandrocks. Kai is just a repaint with a cape/cloak added in. And without his shield and machine gun
