And of course I JUST bought a MG Unicorn :P

... anyone want to offer suggestions on my next purchase? It could well determine the next pre-built 1/100 scale offering...

yes indeed

btw the MC GFF will cost twice as much if not more then the model kit........ probably not as poseable either....... but be in the same scale........ and you can skipp all that modeling work and paitning....... so possibly good trade off.

shcmpro will be around 5" ~6" but should be super poseable........ i hope one of them has the full armor parts but doubt it.

With the 1/144 SHCM Pro Gundam Unicorn retailing for $100-150, I shudder to think how much the larger 1/100 GFF MC will cost. $175-250?! In any event, it'll be expensive.

Especially since it'll have all the swappable parts... by the time it comes out it may even have the Full Armor stuff. Though it wouldn't surprise me at all if the FA parts for this one and the Robot Damashii release were Web Shop Exclusives.

lol now that you mention it gpa your probably right!

I do assume that the MC GFF will be expensive, they have always been expensive an so have SHCM so its a given.

I am hoping that the MC will not need swapable parts though (in fact the shcm only has very few parts that need to be swaped out) Actually, if the MG can do transformation why wouldnt the MC?

Full armor parts would also require blue inner frame...... so unless they do two versions, probably wont happen now that i think about it.

Oh, that's right, the MG didn't need parts swapping... for some reason I thought it did, but then I remembered how annoying the head piece was to change.

Hmmm... I'm still kind of stuck on wether or not to get the SHCM since I would like to get this release and the RD releases as well. The GFFMC will likely have the best presentation and shelf presence, and the RD will probably be cheaper and just as poseable as the SHCM, but lack the transformation, but that's something I can live with as it'll be nice to display both modes at once.

I think my only real incentive to get the SHCM is to support the series and keep HCM alive...

well HCM is dead its not coming back but hopefully Shcm is here to stay. Remember SHCM will be bigger then RD aslo more should be more detailed and increased poseability. I am definitely getting SHCM and RD to dsipaly both versions, dont know about MC.. I guess i can wait for that one....... probably price will drop significantly by the time i get around to it if at all.
