I couldn't help myself. It had to be done. It could have been worse.

Also, even if they're one-off display things I hope we get more obscure "reference" custom builds. Like a staff-wielding Hi-Nu/Noble hybrid kitbash... thing. :j:

Virsago and Ashtaron Hermit Crab were in as well. Both lost quickly (Virsago to Aila, Ashtaron HC lost during the whole "Cziommer grabs some dudes and gangs up on Fellini" sequence) to their opponents.

Virsago Chest Break was also among the units blown up with Cziommer. They even pulled a "Nii-san!" joke when it got shot.

Hopefully with the second season Luang Dallara (sp?) will be back with a new and improved abigorbine that will get a kit. I'd get the abrigor but I am not at the level I could make the custom split rhinoceros beetle horn myself.

I mean they can't give us 3 different build strikes again can they?

Sure they can. Look at how many Strikes, RX-78s, and Zakus we've gotten so far.

The back shot of the Impulse is practically identical to the Strike, so it very well could be.

If I didn't know it was off limits I'd say AGE related. Without it however my best guess is some sort of ZZ variant.

It honestly looks like if you redid the Reniscata as a Unicorn suit.

It's actually shorter than the Probably Build Strike in the middle, which pretty much dashes my hopes of it being a ZZ. It's probably just a Wing variant.

What's killing me is the beam rifle, I just know I've seen something that has that kind of rifle barrel but I can't find it anywhere on dalong.

To make it fashionable and asymmetrical, there's a half V fin when it goes into Destroy mode.

I was in japan a month ago and yeah, they were selling really well, there was some barren shelves. I never managed to find a mg universe booster or build strike :(.

It's a Zeta. And for someone supposed to be a creative genius of Gunpla customization, it looks like Sei's still just building the same basic Build Strike.

:lol::lol:

When has anything Gundam, nay anything Bandai had a second season as good as the first, never mind better?

At best this will be the cynical cash grab we all expected out of the first season - it made them way, WAY too much money to evade meddling from the Bandai mothership this time around so they'll demand that the creative team give us what they think we want.

It could go either way. 00 got the hammer brought down on it by the mothership because the ratings sank and it was "un-Gundam". Build Fighters has sold like gangbusters and done a whole load of good, so it could just go as far as "Good work, more of the same".

I find this attitude really annoying. Some people thought the last show was gonna be a lovely cash grab and just pre judged the gently caress out it . It looks like the same people are working on it. It's a very successful show, so why would they mess with it?

I'll be negative when there's negative news. If I eat crow fine, but I'm not gonna go "oh this is gonna suck" right off the bat.

The second season of MS IGLOO was on par with the first, if not better, and while I'm probably the odd one out, I really liked the third season (or second season, if the first season is just one split into two miniseries?), 'cause, besides the crazy death god, they had lots of awesome tanks, both in mobile suit form and not.

Wow that... doesn't look like the silhouette at all.

Also Sei's whole thing has been under-the-hood genius since the very beginning, so I'm not sure why you're still up in arms about that. Less is more anyways.

EDIT: The SD looks different too. You know what? I think they're actually being coy and showing the SD of the Zeta variant in the preview, and the HG as the actual model. Vice-versa for the suit on the right.

Either that or the models are just prototypes.

Amen to this. Honestly as far as I'm concerned I'm going to assume season two will be good until I'm proven otherwise. If its poo poo I'm going to be dissapointed no matter what, might as well have a few months of hype looking forward to it.

Hell, the first season had some meddling but nobody complained about that! (Hell, some of the things they added were loved, like the Gyan Ga Gyan)

I think this is gonna be fine and I think that it's way too soon to be worrying about the sky falling.

Gonna have to agree here. This very show upended our expectations of lovely cash grab, why can't it potentially upend our expectations of lovely sequel?
