Gundam Big Expo - Image Gallery (Part 1)

MG Astray Blue Frame (2nd Revise)

PG 00 Raiser

Release in November 09

HG 1/144 Unicorn Gundam

This will not be a transformable kit, but rather 2 kits sold seperately for Unicorn mode & Destroy Mode. Both will be released in November on the same day. I do prefer it this way, since painted kits should not be played with often, espeically transformation.

HGUC Kshatriya

Release in October 09

Gundam UC - Format Finally Confirmed!!!

The format of the upcoming Gundam UC series will be OVA! (Not a movie, as the previous news of that is now obviously a fake one...) Yes, it is finally confirmed. Thanks to fellow blogger (An American Salaryman in Tokyo) who updated his blog with this latest update from the Gundam Big Expo.

It will be a total of 6 episodes to be released during Spring 2010, with each episode running 50 mins. This is the best news from the Gundam Big Expo thus far. Will continue to update as I find them. Previous news about a winter release is still happening I guess, probably will be the first episode, with the rest to be release in spring, similiar to how Macross Frontier was aired.

1/100 Hail Buster Gundam - New Images

Here are a few updated images + box art for the upcoming 1/100 Hail Buster Gundam
Release Date: Aug 24th 09
Price: 2,625 Yen

It looks a lot like the old Buster Gundam, but uglier. I think most likely people will buy this when it's price goes way down for extra gunpla parts...
