more on MG GN-X

so as far as we know the planned release date for this highly anticipated kit(well at least for me) is January 2010, this easily goes to show that bandai has had this planned for probably not that much longer than exia's planning phases, probably even at the same time!! but i wouldnt hope that were the case becasue given MG Exia DOES have quiet a few quirks to it, im hoping though that this MG GN-X unit wouldnt suffer from the same, or at least relatively the same, quirks like the semi-lose ankle joints for example. in all honesty i believe that this kit might actually hold together in terms of ground balancing than MG Exia can but i DO see wher ethere could be potential problems



if you take a look at the design art youll notice that on the rear view of the GN-X... you can kinda KINDA tell that the hip joint is gonna be something new but it relaly reminds of of the arm joints on the HGUC Acguy or the just released MG Guntank but im hoping that not the EXACT joint system they plan on using... though it COULD be a strong joint, posing would be a bitch i can imagine so im just hoping that thats just armor pieces and the hip joint system is pretty much the same as what weve been given with MG Exia

aside from all that junk i still cant seem to get passed the awesomeness that this kit could potentially posses... not to mention it really gives a hint at what bandai could be processing through their designs right now for what their next MG kit would be for the 00 line or even just in general as i found that the MG Blue Frame 2nd Revise was pretty impressive itself but of course iy had some quirks but you know what? i dont blame bandai for those quirks because i look at it as experiments... they did great with MG Exia with giving it that new separate hip joint system but the ankles werent so impressive though the idea was great and so it makes me wonder if the MG Blue Frame had the same quirk because it also was given the same ankle joint system as MG Exia

as for MG GN-X... i probably wont be able to make the pre-order in terms of following through considering christmas and a few birthdays are coming up before that time comes but i can assure you... weather the 00 series DOES happen to win the votes or not... consider the GN-X as my next MG review after the MG Exia Ignition Mode set... but dont think im trying to convince you all to JUST vote for 00

next MG for 00 series is...

like you didnt already know... yes the next MG kit coming for the 00 series is the GN-X unit as shown here



this caught me by surprise too as im sure it did with everyone else but you know what?! i dont think its such a bad idea after all. look at it as a sign of whats to come in the later releases of 00 MG's *COUGHMasuraoCOUGH* and just the fact that Bandai's technologies put into their MG's have been advancing especially in the 00 series and aside from that its really refreshing to me to be seeing this considering the only OTHER units that have been getting the MG attention are grunt units like the Zaku's which have TONS of alterations already released and STILL being released in the near future... talk about creativity and smart spending of funds though i CAN see that potentially happening too with the GN_X considering the other forms this unit takes like the GN-X II and GN-X III and even the GN-X Advanced!! now that would be sweet... anyway it could also be sweet to see if, and im sure there SHOULD be, an LED unit as well but of course in RED!! that would be so awesome... and finally i just love the design of the GN-X... totally something different and over time its just grown on me... now i just cant help but wonder what other unit from 00 *COPUGHMasuraoAndMaybeEvenABetter00COUGH* they would give the MG treatment to

taking a new approach to the "lets build series"

for this upcoming lets build series(sergei's tieren taozi), i planned on taking a different approach where instead of taking the same steps as with previous takes, i go with something more similar to stryderprime's style in terms of set-up but that doesnt mean im trying to copy him. what WILL be similar will be how the pieces would be ready and set for the takes instead of having to cut them from the trees in real time so that would mean i would have to take the time to not only cut parts from their gates, but to also shave excess/buff the parts... and get an idea of where the pieces would go, seeing if there is any issues that one might run into and bringing them up during the shoot... just all part of my quest in becoming a more detail oriented reviewer, considering its been ALMOST 2 years since ive been an active reviewer and 1000 subscribers later, id really like to go for some changes. does that mean no more fun wise-cracky reviews? nope!! still going to throw those in when i get a chance as you might see in upcoming reviews

wow...

alright, alright, alright... i know... i know... what the EFF have i not been doing to update this here blogger?? who cares... what matters is the current matter at hand and it involves alot of what ive been thinking about in terms of "what happens after SD Blitz gundam?!" assuming that it will be the last kit i build until i have no more kits to build... well at least until after HG masurao but with that in mind ive been thinking about doing gundam reviews according to series... for example depending on WHAT i come across between now and when ever "then" is ill be taking a full concentration on doing reviews for gunpla coming from that series... now that doesnt exactly mean me going out to get every single kit from a particular series but ONLY the ones i find interesting and more importantly, the ones i dont have but this is where it gets confusing... lets say i go with the SEED Destiny series and i already have the HG strike freedom and destiny gundams, so does that mean i wont be getting those two in a bigger/better scale? no... MG strike freedom and destiny have been on my "wanted list" for quiet some time now so that just goes to show that there WILL be exceptions but hey enough with the garbage!! how about we get to the point... the fun part of course is when i get lazy to decide for myself and yes i tend to do this alot... i make YOU GUYS DECIDE!! so i will be posting this poll up (which should be both UP and literally UP) asking you guys obviously to decide for me and besides i think this is more fun due to the fact that in the end it could be anything and which ever the outcome... i think it would be fun to go with what you guys had decided and just go from there as it adds to a sense of freedom and adjustment... not to mention surprises... SO... happy voting guys and oh by the way... for those ever wondering about whats going to happen to the revoltech reviews?! ive postponed them until further notice due to the fact that they are just not worth it at the moment considering their size and quantities and overall price tags hence ive just decided to continue with gunpla and transformers... until further notice as i said...

ok now i think ive spoken enough so yeah... aside from all that junk up there i will be posting up alot of pictures of my recent works that never got to make it up here and that goes from all the way back to HG exia r2 and 0 gundam acd so look out for those but ill be trying to find a way to link them to a gallery of sorts so that i dont waste time and space putting them all here...
