been a little lazy this few days.. and with classes up my ass.. pffft.. classes monday to friday.. all in the morning.. gahhh.. sien!.. well up next is the RX-93-ν2 Hi-ν Gundam piloted than NO other than the 1st Gundam pilot Amuro Ray from the Universal Century Era.. this story takes place after the original series.. a movie is made called Char's Counterattack..
In that movie the Gundam which Amuro piloted is the Nu Gundam, the Hi-Nu however takes place in the same storyline but in another parallel universe called Mobile Suit Gundam: Beltorchika's Children
Young Amuro Ray in the original series..
This is the original lineart for the Hi-Nu Gundam.. but the final design for the MG is fairly different.. especially the legs and chest and the colour scheme itself..
I like the Hi-NU, i've seen in at dalong.net and i like the design very much.. sort of resembles Strike Freedom.. but one thing that got in the way of me acquiring this kit was the price.. almost a year plus the price for this kit which i can find was around 250-290.. so when i saw it at 230, it was an instant grab for me.. then few weeks later i saw some guy selling for 210.. ZZZzzzZZzzz... well thats life i guess.. For that price u get more than what u think!
Its a fairly large box.. same six with the Strike Freedom FBM box, in side the runners and also included a stand!.. i like kits which comes with stands.. lol.. not only that u see the box art on the right which has that funnel and between it has that electric effect? yes that electric effect is also included.. some plastic rods also also included to hold the funnels on the stand to replicate the pose on the box art.. like the FBM i didnt bother.. lol
Didnt take me long to complete it.. but i was very amazed by the kit.. its quite old.. made in 2005, this kit is quite awesome!.. its stable and sturdy, no loose joints on the ankle and waist unlike newer kits. and its HUGE!!.. well for a UC kit i think thats normal.. haha..
The Hi-NU in complete form.. comes with 6 detacheable funnels at the back, one beam rifle, one bazooka, one huge ass shield and 3 beam sabers, one in the right forearm, and 2 inside the wing binders.. :D
Some poses *click on pictures to enlarge*
Unlike other Gundams, the beam sabers in this kit doenst come in Red.. but this time in blue.. LOL.. overall i rate this kit a 8/10...
Likes... i like that is huge, has lots of gimmicks like the funnels, i like the design very much.. the frame is solid and stable, hard joints and NO BALL JOINTS!.. i even like that they fuel pod at the back connecting to the body is plated gold.. haha..
Dislikes.. well not much except the color scheme is kinda.. mehhh... i mean it wont kill to have a little red or yellow but o well.. another thing is the UC elbows.. i dono why.. i mean only in UC the elbows are pointing to the side of the kit instead of lets say.. LIKE HUMANS.. lol.. and the biggest problem i find in this kit.. the poseability.. i mean.. its huge and menacing, but i raelly have a hard time trying to pose this kit.. it seems its juz cool to let it stand there.. ==
soo yeah.. thats all i have to say abt this... up next is the BIG BOY!..
