  1. Yes...finally,but I think Bandai should make AGE-2DB Gundam AGE-2 Double Bullet first...???

    1. The reason the Darkhound would come first is simply because the Double bullet requires a different mold as the legs are bigger. With this all they have to do is re-use the Age-2 normal Mold and add 1 or 2 new runners with a different colors.

    2. Not to mention if they do include the beam sabre hikari no tsubasa, which will be at least as massive as 00 Raiser's GN SWORD rifles in transam

  2. wow, this is what i am waiting for

  3. This is excellent news indeed.
    I suspect we will see a Age-2 Normal Special Ops MG leaked as a P-Bandai exclusive, and then later the Double Bullet.

    =D

    1. STFU. it's likely, but realy, stop making so much hate for yourself. Just accept the fact thta youre going to have to deal with what the magazines, and hobby shows reveal. JUST BE PATIENT!

    2. Yeah, you keep saying that... But I look at the rest of this years MG releases and see NO kits from your stupid, ridiculous, 3-MGs-a-month+online exclusives wishlist, and all I see is the darkhound, wish was to be expected, seeing as pirate themed MSs are popular... Spec Ops, yeah, they'll do that... You just keep saving your money so you can "support" bandai into releasing exclusive, more expensive versions of kits that already exist (in solid white!)... I'll just grab my spray can... (that is, if I, for some weird reason, wanted a solid white, lame version of a somewhat cool and colourfull design)

    3. god damn paint your MG AGE-2 White

    4. is there any way we can get him banned or something like that?

    5. Who cares what nike says. If nike really pisses you guys off, then you're pathetic. I wonder how you guys cope in real life. Then again, this is the internet and you guys feel badass hiding behind your monitor and typing away. Just ignore him and move on. It's a public blog and he can leave whatever message he wants. INB4 YOU'RE NIKE.

    6. Hm. Which Anonymous is which?
      Are you guys so lazy that you won't even take the time to create an account? Really?

      Just make an account and stick with it instead of being keyboard warriors.

    7. there will be more hatred towards you dude....

      Delete
    8. Fine. =) I've got haters and fans. I don't mind. If that's how people wish to reply back to my comments and whatnot. So be it.

      They are wasting their time. I'm sure many of them also just come in, blindly see my user name(s), and then write a rage, flame, and or troll comment.

    9. Who are you? Does having an account on the interwebz make you someone? Is suiton a real person? having a little photo of kira there makes your oppinion count more then anybody else's here? You preach all the time about internet conduct, and you're the worst of the lot, with you're "I'm all superior, cuz I have a little picture with a made-up name on the side" attitude. You are a very rude and egotistical person, the way you completely ignore ppl's requests (at first polite, now reasonably not so) for you to quite down, and the way you completely REFUSE to listen to what anyone says. I mean, what's the point in posting in a blog, if you have ABSOLUTELY no regard for what ppl tell you, what answers they give, what FACTS they present to counter what you say, and instead just post the same thing EVERY, SINGLE. TIME? and when you answer to ppls requests, you act like some 5 year old brat, and call ppl jelous of your colection (this is so ridiculous, I don't even know where to start) jelous of how much of a buddy GG is to you, or just plainly say, using whatever twisted logic, that they don't have an account and that means they don't have any kits. (guess what, the jokes on you, b/c I look at your YT channel, your blog, and I don't see a single kit either, just boxes. Hypocrite) Your whole attitude makes you sound like a borderline sociopath, a spoilt brat, who comes to the web to annoy ppl just b/c he can. I find this attitude more offensive then any troll or actual kid that comes to this site. Bottom line is, YOU, my friend, are just as anonymous here as anyone else. Don't want to be anonymous? Post your picture, fb acount, and home adress...

    10. "...having a little photo of kira there makes your oppinion count more then anybody else's here?..."

      Oh? Is that Kira?
      You fail..

      WALL OF TEXT?
      DOES NOT READ.

      Delete
    11. This is exactly the superior and smug attitude I refer to in my wall of text you don't read but somehow quote. Grow up, and when you act like the adult you claim to be, maybe I'll leave you alone...

      Delete
    12. Why so serious? You mad bro?
      Anyway, the MG Age-2 Darkhound is here. You guys have been saying it would take a while or never come out.

      Well~ It's here and you know I'll be pre-ordering/buying from GG (or someone else but most likely GG).

      Oh and FYI, the YT channel you see with my boxes. Yea. Those are all just boxes. My built kits are on private. So ya..

      Kthxbye.

      Delete
    13. actually him and gg arent buddy buddy, i think the person who runs this blog feels just like everybody else when it comes to someone coming up with the same shit about what they want. oh well oh and also by asking for free stuff or you will be threatening the site by reporting it and filing false complaints only because you dont get what you want, seriously stop

      Delete
    14. @suiton AHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, so you show your boxes, but your kits are private??? AAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

      I'll just say this, then: prove it

      All this talk about ppl not having kits, being anonymous and all that, and YOU'RE the biggest loser!

    15. Care to prove it? We've no reason to believe that you've even built your kits, let alone recorded videos of them.

      Delete
    16. Damn your posts haven't even been slightly annoying lately and you're still getting flak. I applaud you and your Give No Fucks attitude to this blind rage.

    17. I'm also waiting for mg age-2 spec ops (white). I'm not painting my gundam btw.

      But for this mg dark hound I think I'll pass, i like its head shape & hook, but that shoulder wing is really ugly, crossbone still way better.

      Delete
    18. Charles Kim stfu. You phaggot. We dont want to see your overposted phaggotry MG wishes.

  4. definitely will be mine... HAHAHAH

  5. finally, dark hound!!

  6. Announced on 4CHAN and i'm the only one here who is skeptical?

    1. A little bit. But then also consider that it would be very time consuming to edit photos this much ya know?

      Delete
    2. @Nike

      Here's an idea.

      Bandai should release theMG Double Bullet parts in a magazine(i.e. Dengeki Hobby) and your best bet for a spec.ops age2 is a resin kit.

      Delete
  7. the gray shades are to light, maybe because is the first pictures... still looking forward to it and if the colors are to light, the good old spray can can help.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. I agree. These pictures are leaked images so definitely consider them (at the very least) to be very early images.

      I suspect we're gonna at least get a similar shade of colors as the ones Bandai applied to the High Grade.

      Delete
    2. None of these images are really leaked you idiot. They are from magazines and official bandai images.

      Delete
    3. They probably just used the legs, arms, and waist from the AGE-2 Normal for the prototype photos. That's why the colors appear to be off.

      Delete
    4. How many shades of gray does this model have? Not fifty I hope....

      Delete
    5. If you consider the fact that the Normal and DH is a pretty easy color swap(probably why it's getting made ahead of the DB) Then I'm pretty sure that Bandai just decided to use the Normal's plates for this "Promo?" image and that it will definitely be a dark grey instead of white

      Delete
    6. based on the latest pictures...looks like it will be dark gray after all

      Delete
  8. I was surprised they decided to release this first instead of the DB, but the more I look at both, it makes more sense. All they'd do is add the binders on top of the shoulder bits for the normal AGE-2's wings and redo the head.

    1. I suspect Double Bullet is in the process of being molded or at least engineered right now. For the moment, it looks like Darkhound is what we have to look forward to.

      Delete
  9. I'm so glad i didn't get the HG... Pre ordering this kit it think. You have to wonder though will they even make AGE 3 MG's or wil they just do the FX and Legilis.

    ReplyDelete
  10. wait, the MG dont include the wire for hook?
    i smell fail

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Well, there are less then ten pictures right now. That means not a lot of features have been shown yet. Example: In the first few pictures of the Normal version, it never showed that the cockpit could be opened from both forms. But you can, so wires will definitely be included in the DH.

      Delete
    2. ^I second to that

      Delete
  11. When is this suppose to come out? Is it an exclusive or something?
    I don't buy 144's and was waiting till a 100 was released.
    Looks good IMO.
    If this is based on the age2 maybe I can buy the 1/48 one and customize it. Haha. .

    ReplyDelete
  12. I knew this was going to happen, can't wait XD

    ReplyDelete
  13. I'm amused by the number of people who like the DH now that it's being released as an MG. IIRC, when the HG was first announced, people were bashing non-stop on the space pirate motif. I consider my preferences my own, but it's nice to see some more people supporting the DH--it's a great design.

    I guess I'll be saving for this one.

    1. You have til November. =D I think that's enough time for us to save 4410 Yen. We have almost 3 months.

      But yea. I noticed that too. People hated it with the HG, and now with the MG they're like "ZOMG THIS IS THE BEST MG EVAAA! I WANTZ IT NAOZZ!" HEH..

      And then there were those who told me that a MG version wouldn't be out for at least a few years or something. Right~

      Same thing with the Age-1 Flat series.. I bet it'll come out early 2013.

      Delete
    2. erm nike, my best bet is the AGE-1 flat will just come with both the backpack thing and the addtional armor and that it will be released not so soon. BUT...... who knows what bandai is thinking right? =D

      Delete
  14. i dunno if its just me but tbh, i prefer the Dark Hound with the white shades over the grey shades even though i know the one with the grey shades is as it appear in the show :/

    ReplyDelete
  15. its just that i seen the kit itself, the grey colour jsut seems so awful...

    ReplyDelete
  16. .... is it just me or does a lance being held as a rifle seem a bit wierd?
    I hope that it has a attachment that allows it to be held like a lance ...
    Probably won't happen seeing how the handle is the same as the Hyper Dodes
    .... Wonder if it'll come with 2 wires for the anchors

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Its no different to every other lance weapon through out gundam history. Namely the shot lancer from the crossbone x2 which the darkhound is based off of.

      Delete
  17. I dont place much hope in this kit since the this one share the same legs and hands with the Age2-Normal. SO this one migh have some same problems like: loose hands, shaking legs, and a not-so-much-mobility neck. But this one's design seem good enough, so I think if anyone like papa-super-Jack-spallow then having Age2-DH on the shelf is ok

    ReplyDelete
  18. Looks badass! Glad I skipped the AGE-2 Normal.

  19. This may sound crazy, but I'm liking this more than Nu ver. Ka right now.

    1. you're kidding me right. how can this be more awesome than Nu ver ka =.=

  20. aestheticaly im feeling it, detail wise, im not feeling the mg feeling "eg look at the front skirts" i want more details D:

    ReplyDelete
  21. Don't know about the lance. It looks too impractical as weapon. The binders and color looks good though.

    ReplyDelete
  22. A disgustingly cliche transformable gundam, ugly design, unimpressive weapons.if you could call them weapons that is. poor colour scheme-Ohh lets make it black and grey and slap on a little red here and there! doesn't warrant the 4410 yen price. i mean kits like mg strike freedom have the huge dragoon system which uses a lot of plastic. so i don't mind paying more. but this. 2 measly things at each side and 1 weird looking main weapon and 2 guns that shoot out the blunt end of a hook. great. just great. this is a wannabe version of the crossbone full cloth.

  23. Before Nike comes back with his AGE MG Release Theory... Stop spamming that in every AGE model post

    1. Let's just hope most of the kits on his wish list don't release. We don't want nike thinking he's got psychic predicting abilities too. I'd be totally fine I'd he kept his wish listing to his own blog, as no one reads it.
