I have heard about some vendors selling pre-orders of this new series from Bandai. The figures are supposed to be 1/200 in scale and are being called High Complete Model Progressive. Some of the figures in the series include Rick Dom, RX-178, RX-78-2, and Guncannon. Anyone have more details on these figures? Any pix?

Thanks for the great link Scrapper! This looks like a cool series that won't take up so much storage/shelf space. I love the level of detailing that went into such small figures. Too bad the RX-78-2 doesn't seem to have a removable core fighter like the Special Creative Model--now that would be nice. I wish now that I didn't buy so many MSiA figures. I really dislike PVC. I'm glad to hear that these will be made of ABS plastic instead. ;D

Anybody have one or more of these? I saw one in a local store recently--a very small RX-178 Mk II(1/200 scale). Wondering if these are worth the price of $18-$22. ![::)](http://lemonstre.fr/robot-japan/smileys/rolleye.png)

Yes, i have the first five, and although i told myself going in that in WOULD NOT start a serious HCMPro collection, (i already had a pretty serious MSIA!! collection), i am ITCHING to get #6, #7, #8, well, all of them...I think i paid $16 each, but i would be willing to up to $18-20 for them... especially if i could find them on a store shelf instead of being forced to order them online ![:(](http://lemonstre.fr/robot-japan/smileys/sad.png)

Where'd you find them online? eBay? Thanks. J IIRC, i ordered them as a set (the first 4) from ebay. it was either tisinc, or "something"2000 i believe. the fifth (and soon to be sixth) was picked up at image anime in New York. you can order from them online, but i prefer to wait for a client to fly me out there, so i can bring my toys back on the plane...

I just got the HCM Pro Guncannon on sale. For its diminutive size (1/200), it is a very impressive toy! It's even better than the HGUC model I have of the Guncannon with more detail and better poseability. I held off on getting these for a while, but based on the quality of this one, I might be getting more. It does seem to incorporate the modern articulation features of the more recent MSiA and Extended MSiA. I actually like its size because I'm starting to run out of room for my collection.
