My original stint with Gunpla was MG mostly. I built plenty of HG/HGUCs of ye olden times but I was mostly passionate for big detailed kits. My current stint with Gunpla is mainly modern HGs because there's many things that don't have a MG version and it's easier to slap on a few "fixes" or add-ons to a 1/144 kit of HGUC grade or equivalent, while a MG kind of demands a higher level of detail.

Finished the Patlabor double set from Good Smile/Moderoid Insert funny caption here. If you want to be charitable this could count as two HGs, though the Bulldog construct-o-bot was a pretty simple kit. I had some fun adding shading to the joint covers. I was also going to add water slides but I seem to have misplaced them? Overall a pretty good kit that looks great, though there are no polycaps and instead the joints just end up being super stiff and separate easily when moved.  I spent the rest of the evening finishing off the MG Ball Ver.Ka with some decals. This was my first go at applying dry transfers, and using clear tape on top helped a lot with positioning. Mr Mark Softer also seems to work pretty well on these.   Final build of August, adding to the GP02 content of the thread!

Exia 2.0 would be wonderful given how great the much more recent Virtue, Kyrios, and Dynames are. I'd also love to see an MG Nightingale but in a "hahaha... unless?" kind of way. It'd just be so hilariously massive- you'd have to dedicate a whole piece of furniture to displaying it.

I mean there already is a re/100 Nightingale and it's huge, but the extra detail would be aces for a Ver Ka.

They already made an MG Deep Striker as a regular release and that thing is more statue than model kit, so an MG Nightingale wouldn't be too far outside the realm of possibility. Also the RE/100 already exists.

off the top of my head: grunt suits that aren't GM or Zaku variants, an MG Leo would be sweet Gerbera Tetra stuff from Reconguista in G and IBO

That they've done an MG Tallgeese and not yet done a Leo is criminal, same goes for the RG As for Devil Gundam. it's completely doable

I don't know how much the Z'gok flopped, given that it still gets regular reprints, but I can see why it wouldn't hit the targets. Most of the RGs are big name suits, so random fans will recognize it and be interested. Grunts are less remembered, and often would require different frame setups.

War and Pieces posted:I'm sorry but Z'Gok is way more iconic than Gundam Destiny SEED DeluXe I'm not sure how true that is, given SEED's success in Japan, but even if it is, it illustrates the point. If one of the most iconic grunts sells slower, the less iconic grunts hardly have a chance.

This is making me really want an RG Acguy. I know the MG is well-loved but it's been forever since I saw it in stock anywhere.
