Gunpla Releases for Aug, Sep, Oct 2009

Note that I don't normally like doing news updates on upcoming gunpla releases because not only do I prefer writing articles, but I don't want to be catching up to all the latest sources, and there's a site that pretty much does it the best: ngeekhiong.blogspot.com

On that note, here is basically every gunpla release for the upcoming months of August, September, and October. I've piled up every major release in this one post for your convenience. Enjoy.




1/144 HGUC Jegan

August Release
1500 yen

Jolly good, the Jegan gets HGUC treatment. This is the great grunt unit from Char's Counterattack. Good to see almost every UC mobile suit finally getting HGUC treatment.




1/100 Nix Providence Gundam
September Release
2660 yen

There seems to be a handful of new 1/100 models coming out from the Seed Destiny line. They are all new upgraded designs from the "VS Astray" sidestory of Gundam Seed. Note that the backpack of this model attaches to the Regen Dual, which is below.




1/100 Regen Duel Gundam
September Release
2375 yen

Another custom design from the Seed Destiny line.



1/100 Hail Buster

August Release
2500 yen

Yet another.



1/100 Gale Strike Gundam
August Release
2500 yen

And yet another new custom design from the Seed Destiny line.



1/144 HG 0 Gundam

September Release
1140 yen

The 0 Gundam in its prototype colors. Yay....





1/144 HG Ribbons Gundam

September Release
1710 yen

Lovely, the Ribbons Gundam. I rather like the Gundam mode design, I might get it if it ever comes out in a bigger scale. Note that this model can switch between the Gundam mode and the cannon mode. Pure class.



1/144 HG Seravee Gundam GNHW/B

September Release
1710 yen

A small-scale high grade release of the Seravee Gundam. About time really...






1/144 HGUC Full Armor Gundam #7

September Release
1425 yen

I've recently fallen in love with the HGUC line, and I can assure you that these 1/144 high grades are top-notch. I've never seen this design before, it is apparently from a video game, but its interesting nonetheless.







1/144 Super HCM Pro Unicorn Gundam

October Release
9310 yen

Aah, now this is what I'm talking about. HCM Pro treatment for the Unicorn Gundam. I was hoping they would come out with a HGUC version of it first, but whatever. Looking good from what I can tell in the photos. Just note the price (that's about $100). VERY pricey. If you have an unhealthy obsession with the Unicorn Gundam and cash flying out of your ass then sure, why not.






Master Grade 1/100 Guntank

September Release
4560 yen

*snort*. To be honest, I really could not care less about the Guntank. It's look is completely outdated and the master grade treatment is not doing a thing to make it better. I guess if you have some sort of weird obsession with the Guntank, go ahead.
