yeah you have a point now that you mention it. put its very possible that they offer two antennaes like Psycho MKII does. And even if so thats nothing to worry about. Good to have spare antennaes anyway, as I have broken the transformable one on my MG lol

I thought the release date was similar to SoC Daitarn, which is April 2009?

Holy crap this line just totally slipped my attention. I've avoided the Fix Figuration line because quite frankly I still remember the early ones: they were really nicely sculpted versions of MSiA - all rubbery and ...nice to look at but don't touch them because the bits will just fall apart. But I just read the reviews of the Zeta Plus and the Psycho on CollectionDX and if Unicorn is anywhere near as cool as those (and anywhere near the preview photos we've already seen) then my pre-order on impulse tonight will be well worth it! I blame my fellow Robot Japan members for my reckless purchasing.

Next time I go to Mitsuwa I'll take a look at the article... I can make out they they're made of ABS and PVC so far, but there's some Japanese characters preceeding the ABS.... hopefully it'll say Diecast

Well, I'll believe it when I see it. Like I was saying - to me the Fix Figuration line is all about highly-sulpted but plastic-y do-not-touch PVC figures. And now I've just learned that the Metal-Composite versions are completely different. And last month with the VF-19 we also learned that the new "Hi-Metal" barely has any metal in it at all! So I'm not going to worry too much about what they're called.

The newer gffn don't use PVC any more only abs They still do, but very limited, like for the hands and antennae (and the polycaps in the Zeta plus) .

I blame my fellow Robot Japan members for my reckless purchasing. the metal composites are a very different proposition to regular GFF, though they contain more plastic than die-cast they are very solid and detailed in design. but i do find them lacking a bit on articulation, but thats fine with me as i juz leave them in regular poses. i suppose just admiring at the great quality robot is good enough for me ;D

looks as if the MC unicorn aims to break that mold a bit........ even the latest GFFN is a lot more poseable then its brethern (that being rezel)

BTW is anyone planing to get the upcoming GFF MC Unicorn? I am still yet to decide... I wish it comes with the 'cage stand' as the new MG version. Since the GFF MC version is much more expensive.

I'm thinking about getting it too, but I'm wondering if it will sell well since there's SO MUCH gundam unicorn products out now and more coming I'm wondering if the GFFMC will sell well. Hence, I might wait for a sale. However, they're flying out of the store shelves I'll be sure to pick one up and review it.
