    2. My thoughts exactly. So many GM variants that need some MG love. Definite must buy for me.

  2. I swear to God, if this is P-Bandai exclusive, I will freak out. I want this model really bad!

    1. It'll be standard. White dingo and lido wolf one will be p-bandai.

    2. If it were a P-Bandai, it would say so on the card. All it says is MG GM Sniper II (plus release date and price), so its a legit full release. =)

      I'm betting that they'll probably do a White Dingo version, and THAT will be P-Bandai.

    3. That is a good point. The White Dingo will probably come with the Beam Sniper Rifle. I would much rather have that version, but P-Bandai is prohibitively expensive. I am definitely getting the standard release though. Now give me a Jegan and Stark Jegan!

    4. Not entirely true. The prices on Bandai Premium are in Hong Kong dollars; if you figure out the exchange rate there is a slight mark-up, but in general it isn't too bad.

  3. GM Sniper II instead of GM Sniper Custom????!!!! Why? Bandai, why?

    1. Because it's not some sort of MSV, and Sniper II have cooler design imo.

    2. More variants available? Between the white dingo and others, as well as possibly the K9 from Build Fighters?

  4. Funny how they are displaying this with the MG Kampfer and MG Alex; both of which could use a 2.0 release. Perhaps they're teasing or hinting at the 2.0s coming?

    ReplyDelete
  5. hopefully the alex and kampfer next to it are hints at 2.0s. can't wait for this, but my kampfer is really showing it's age

  6. Well that was left field... Is it the anniversary of 0080?

  9. I'll believe when I see the bandai logo. Odds are its a 3rd party.

    1. It literally says "Bandai" above "MG" on the card in front of it

      Delete
    2. A 3rd Party Kit wouldn't be unveiled in a Hobby Show, much less next to Bandai's actual kits in the first place.

      Delete
    3. It literally says Bandai on the title card.

      Bandai MG

      it also has other photos from dengeki and various other sites, as well as a big display wall with Bandai on it

      Maybe at least half-ass attempt at reading something and doing research before making dumb comments.

    4. Kenny bridges. idk the don't show 3rd party kits at this show. and some shows do put 3rd party kits with bandai kits for comparison. I don't read Japanese. And it wouldn't be the first time GG posted something as a legitimate bandai kit when it was a 3rd party So suck it. and chillout

    5. Some shows you say, but how do you know this show is one of them? And you don't read Japanese. Exactly, you don't even know what it says. But with common sense you can see the MG logo. 3rd party kits don't do such a thing, they only list the scale. I suggest thinking ahead before jumping and sip some cold water. You'll need it.

    6. You anon 9:46/8:32 sure are dumb

      Delete
    7. Well it was in japanese as well as there's a Bandai written above the "MG" to the title card(I can read katakana) so it's not a 3rd party

  10. I..... i'm..... not dreaming..... right??

  11. Just hoping that bandai will release Mg char zaku II ver origin

    ReplyDelete
  12. Maybe we will get a Zaku fz MG ver ka next. It's very likely the gm command will follow this release since they can make 4 different releases just off of one mold.

    1. I want a Zaku II FZ mg more than anything.

      Delete
  13. It looks like standard Bandai. Yay!

    But that probably means the White Dingos GM Sniper II is probably going to be P-Bandai. I suppose I can live with that.

  14. *cough* P-bandai MG GM SP ll White Dingo *cough*

    1. And they would probably do the Loyd wolf custom or what ever the last pbandai sniper 2 was.

      Delete
  15. Can't wait,still they need to show the Jegan some love. I could see a ECOAS Jegan conversion for this one.

    1. I couldn't agree more, but this is a victory in itself for GM fans!

      Hopefully this might remind Bandai that fans like other things besides Zaku variants and Gundams.

      Delete
    2. as a gm fan i'd love it if they release something like the the metal spider gm from blazing shadow
      but honestly i'd settle for doing a custom job if they'd just release a gm kai 2.0 already

  16. This is the right time for a GM Sniper 2 mg! He deserve a treatment like that even if I didn't expected it at all!

    ReplyDelete
  17. No poseable manipulators for GM Sniper 2... What a bummer!

    Oh well, at least it's happening!

    ReplyDelete
  18. While I'm really happy about this, but I don't like it. They redesigned it too much...

    ReplyDelete
  19. Wow nice KIT, surpise surprise did not expect BANDAI would release this kit.
    From what I see:
    - MG Amazing Red Warrior or maybe MG Gundam Origin torso for that kind of torso mobility.
    - modified Gundam/GM 2.0 arm unit (same upper arm hydraulic shape & shield peg mount)
    - Also Gundam/GM 2.0 based Leg unit (similar leg/foot hydraulic & foot 3 split also the same)
