      I don't see why not especially if they are going the P-Bandai route. I am hoping for the Hyper forms of the Shuffle Alliance including Hyper Shining, the manga upgrades of the Shuffle Alliance, the previous Shuffle Alliance Gundams, Kowloon Gundam, Spiegel, Rising, Tequila, Nether, Viking, Zeus, other Death Army forms, Devil/Ultimate Gundam, the Gundams from the prequel manga. I liked most of the designs from G Gundam minus a few.

      Its kinda sad they didnt put all the Shuffle alliance this year considering it is the actual year of the anniversary, but considering we are still missing the RG Shining for April there are some chances for at least Bolt reaching before it. New kits for Spiegel and Nobell would be a bless for sure and is still a mystery why they havent made the hyper mode version of all these kits considering how much bandai loves charging extra for plated gold *stares at RG Akatsuki*

      The Four Kings are gonna be extremely difficult though. Then again, who's to say they'll try again because of how they can break all sorts of limits even in P-Bandai. Sticking to Gundam Fight participants is fine, though. Mermaid, Tequilla and Nether are great standouts.

    With this guy, the only one left is the Bolt Gundam, and I thought the next RG G Fighter would be the Master Gundam, but the Shining it's pretty cool too ( I'd rather have a regular release Master Gundam instead of a P-Bandai HG Nobel or Rising tho )

    5:23 I am pretty sure this is to recreate a scene from the manga. I think the Rose and the Maxter also had effect parts to mimic scenes exclusive to the manga and the Bolt will probably do the same. Probably one of the reasons why they were P-Bandai as being from a manga usually increases the chances of a kit being P-Bandai.

    • @mj2005gundam
      @mj2005gundam  День назад +1

      On the contrary, the new gimmicks of the Rose, Maxter, and Dragon are marketed as gimmicks original to the HG kit, with an illustration on the side of the box to demonstrate them. I've never read the manga, so correct me if I'm wrong, but the gimmicks are exclusive to the HG kits.

    As someone who grew up with both gundam wing and g gundam it's really sad when you realize that you can get everyone from the Operation meteor team from gundam wing but you can't do it for the g gundam side. And this was no exception like I was so blown away by how good it looks despite being a high-grade and combined with the fact that it actually is accurate to the source material and you can still do all of the wacky poses that you want despite some of the limitations, still pissed that this is A PB exclusive even though we just got through having both Rose gundam and gundam maxter as PB exclusives. You mean to tell me I can get the shenlong gundam normally but I can't get dragon gundam normally.......... Bandai and/or sunrise I still think we need to talk about your obsession with this PB practice as of late cause it's getting on my nerves. Moving on still a fantastic review and while I still hate this stupid practice I can't deny that dragon gundam looks just as great as all the other current shuffle alliance members...... Now all we have to do is go through the real grade shining gundam and most likely the high-grade bolt gundam last and we'll have the entire team, assuming you don't have a way to get PB exclusive kits to actually get the entire team. Great job as always!

    • @mj2005gundam
      @mj2005gundam  День назад

      It's an unfriendly practice that I seriously cannot get behind. But separating the marketing from the product, what they did with the kit is undoubtedly strong and deserving of the premium tag despite not being the definition of the status. Glad you like the video, and fingers crossed for the Bolt to come soon.

    • @MrDarksol
      @MrDarksol День назад

      @mj2005gundam Like I get what my friend was saying that at this point it's just expected when something is going to get A PB release but the fact that it's been done way too often as of late is just ridiculous. But yeah this definitely does look great and it's definitely worthy of the PB tag on it.

      It'd be taxing to do a full review in Mandarin for me. But once a Neo Hong Kong kit comes around...
      And I agree, it's a massive sin to restrict this boyband to P-Bandai, as good as they are. The Cal-re.A already demonstrated that the large range of weapons and effect parts aren't a limiting factor as it is, so this decision is just to piss us off

      What I understand about this...Premium Bandai business model that they're doing, is it's for...Gunpla kits from niche titles that Bandai THINKS won't appeal to the masses (or at least, that's from what I observe).
      But this?! From G Gundam?! AND it's from one of the main characters in the series?! SERIOUSLY UNFORGIVABLE! XD

      I am happy that they decided to go all out on this dragon since it just goes to show that this kit was made with love for the series in mind. A shame that this is PB honestly, as the Wing boyband didn't suffer that fate. If anything, I think they should've done the normal Alliance in retail, while shoving their manga upgrades into PB.
      They even made the D Gundam First a kit, obscurity isn't an excuse.
