Yeah more I read the news more it sounds like it's just a Riser...
Anyone want to guess at next "real" metal build release?
I want Banshee..

since they already have the Unicorn the Banshee sounds like a easy make you will probably see one of those soon as well

Here is the first picture review on the MB Exia. www.gunjap.net/site/?p=123136From the looks, the quality is on par if not better than the Double 0. The only flaw I am noticing is some paint bleeding on the right side of the vents on the chest. Seemed to have over sprayed the yellow. Everything else looks good and even better compared to the Double 0 7 swords. I've always like the Exia more in comparison to the Double 0. Anyway, on the GFFMC thread, I already mentioned that I sure would like a 1/100 metal like chogokin version of the Banshee and it would mak more sense to make it in the GFFMC line since the Unicorn has already been made and is getting reissued. All they really needed to do is take some of the parts from the existing model kits and assemble them and cast the interframe in yellow and change the armor to black. They seriously can milk the existing GFFMC mold by releasing a Banshee and a FA Unicorn. |

Wow...Exia is such a Bad A$$ character to begin with. This toy does him right. Right as rain.  I hope vents are just a QC on his copy. I can't wait for my copy. Supergetter and Zeomare, than we're on same page. Come on Metal Banshee! |

I cannot wait to receive it, so I can place it next to my GFFMC 0 Gundam mimicking the final battle from the last episode.  |

The next metal build gundam will come from an alternate universe series, so it will not be the Banshee which comes from a UC series. I think Turn A Gundam would be an interesting choice for the next metal build. As for the next metal fix series, I'd rather have the Sinanju rather then the Banshee, but I guess the Banshee has a higher chance of happening since it's a retool of the Unicorn. |

I read it at Cybergundam that Raiser going to be around $200 USD....
That better means it comes with actual Gundam 00.
Turn A Gundam is so~ FUNKAY. I love it!
And Banshee Prism in GFMMC would be heavenly...

Like previously discussed, It is Gundam 00 with the 0 raiser in one package. What is up in the air it the fact that we do not know if the 7-swords parts will be included. Only thing we know, is that it comes with new tampo markings.

For those that have this in hand, does this have any improvements over the metal build 00 gundam? I have the first issue of the metal build seven swords gundam and found that the joints have a tendency to loosen over time (just like any Bandai toy, I suppose). The waist joint has become sickeningly wobly and one of the ankle joints is loose enough to not be able to hold a pose. I guess time will only tell, but your feedback is greatly appreciated.

yeah, thats strange, not doubting you, but my GFFMCs have been holding their poses since they were left in the display cabinets. but difference is probably i dont play with them after i set them up for display.

it's gone through several poses, but I wouldn't classify them as overly played with  |

I haven't have any looseness problems with my MB Seven Swords. I only changed the pose three times, all airborne, so the ankle haven't gone bad. I've swapped out the fist only once , plugging in the sword holding right hand instead of the close fist. I can understand if you constantly change out the fist that it would loosen the ball socket. My GFFMC Unicorn, I haven't even posed it. It was transformed into the destroy mode, has weapons attached and is in a regular stationary position, joints are still all strong. I wouldn't treat these like robot damashii figures. I handle them more like the model kits. I get it to the pose I like and it stay like so until I run out of space and needs to reposition them.
