NIIIICEEE!!! the wings look really cool GOOD COLORS!!
Let's call it "Butterfly Gundam" XD A bit too colorful for my own taste (and even not the wings themselves but the Gundam). Not that bad-looking, really, when you look at it for a while. I may like it in the end. It must cost a fortune though.
Are the "butterfly" wings and the extra clear parts standard with the regular MG kit? Or are this a special release version or just a separate special parts kit? The Destiny is pretty cool, but not quite my kind of gundam, a bit too busy for me.
Christmas is coming in 2 months time, so why not paint it in red & white with a liitle bit of green, Danny? >_
Awesome! I was a bit hesitant after seeing the 1st few close up pics of the kit. Didn't really look that detailed. But it's slowly growing on me. For me, in the right light that clear plastic can look pretty cool
isn't that what the wing is SUPPOSED to look like anyway? Not the pink-beam shield color? Anyway, wow, that looks MIGHTY fine... Probably on my buy list, if I can bring it back home from Japan
one of the most waited & anticipated model...MG Destiny..is here at last..cant wait to see the preview at dalong.net..
i dont know... i kinda find destiny to be rather plain >_> but my opinion may change once i see the model in person
wow, cool, i love that wings colour...
man i cant wait 2 get my hands on it and the wings r so colourful!!!!!!
Ah fine. Looks like October and November will be Gunplabuilding months^^ I got the Zaku II Ver2.0 to finish, the Hi-Nu will arrive soon and then this wonderful kit, yay^^ Hey Danny, what about your Wing Gundam?^^;;
hmm If this is how the MG looks like - I wonder what the PG is like :) (I love big robots!)
it looks really nice, but the wing looks really easily chipped off..
Already have mine ordered so it should be shipped very soon. I got it as soon as it became available, tho I must say that I am not impressed with the beam boomerang gimmick. still, at least I had some idea of what to expect. When I ordered the Strike freedom full burst, nobody knew what to expect as bandai just announced that it would be more expensive...
wings of light.. he he.. atleast the mg comes with them.. the 1/100 kit doesnn't come with anything.. looks kinda stupid to open up the wings with nothing there...
i'll definitely get the special edition since i'm such a huge Seed/Destiny fan. ^^ but the boomerang effect don't look impressive at all.
GundamJehutyKai; Its not out just yet, I expect it to start shipping early november.
Sweet. Definitely on my buy list, although the boomerang effect isn't too impressive.
WOW! Nice! I'll be buying this one.
it is sooo beautiful that it made me cried
love the figure...don't like the series lolz XDDD
I already got mine reserved. ^^ although I'm thinking I might get one earlier if I just find one while on my Japan trip. :p oh well. hope to see what color scheme you have planned on the destiny Danny.
I WANT DESTROY IT ! I love all gundam but not it!It belong bastard one so that i hate it , too (>.
Wow I must say the wings are impressive, I do not think I have been this impressed Since I heard the Music and the OST for Final Fantasy 7's Music.
Looks pretty neat, but ultimatly I am turned off by the wings. What I mean by that is, I would not buy the kit because the wings are more suited for a butterfly rather than a gundam.
Like the whole body (because of slightly realistic detail) except the wings. But i don't want to waste money for buying this kit.
Destiny Gundam itself is growing on me as a whole. I remember when I first got into Gunpla the 1/144 HG Freedom was the very first kit I bought (amongst 1/100 Wing kits and 1/144 UC HG). That's all that was available around here aside from SD kits (this was when Gunpla was readily available at mass-market retail here in the US). I always thought Freedom was the goofiest looking one of the lot of them and I didn't like it. Was my least favorite without a doubt. However Freedom has come to be my favorite gundam of all, and destiny is chipping at my heart. I think it was the wings that originally made me not like it, but have become absolutely the coolest feature.
I Wonder if it comes with a Base/Stand that you can put with Strike Freedom So it looks like an action scene! then ill have Shinn come for the kill and make Kira Lose YAY!
hmm....my eyes sick because the color,but wings of light looks good,but i still want to know about that wings of light's part.What kind of plastic that Bandai used for that wings of light? If the plastic same with the beam shield, i thing the price not that expensive, besides it looks easilly broken.After that,the boomerang effect and palm beam cannon look crap for me.The boomerang effect more likes SPIDERMAN to me.hehe..sorry for Destiny's fans.And the palm beam more like the stick than the BEAM!!!! I still likes STRIKE FREEDOM FB and STRIKE NOIR.
Kinda amazing how many of you guys here would pay that much extra to get clear plastic wings with a shiny sticker in between and a really non-realistic boomerang effect. SF:FB is much more worth it compared to DG:WoL. Then again, a normal SF is more worth it than SF:FB LOL.
the box art for the Extreme Burst Mode edition can be found here. http://www.figure.fm/post/11849/Master%20Grade%20Destiny%20Special%20edition%20boxart/
cant believe my post at figure.fm appeared over here. I've to admit that the extra 2,000 yen those special effects is expensive, but i can't help it. Without those, especially the WoL, i wouldn't call destiny gundam as destiny gundam anymore...
Wow...nice job. I have 2 more project to do before I can get to this one. Will need to purchase it soon.
it's going to be released tomorrow!^^ mine coming on 29/10. here's a cool scan of the extreme burst mode from animesuki forums. http://img142.imageshack.us/img142/1331/up11847rj6.jpg
Please for the love of god let those wings be Solid plastic, not the weird, soft, bendy kind of plastic T_T
I hav 1 question, how does the cockpit open?? I am curious. i hav MG Strike, Strike Free Don, Strike Noir. Are they the same??
Just got mine early this week. The wing parts are fabulous and the silver chromed parts are awesome. The forehead part actually shows the "X42S" imprinting. I also like the 1/20 clear figures of Shin and Kira. One of the throw-out type weapon design is kinda crappy though. Overall, I feel this kit is more worthy than SF full burst kit when disregarding the difference in popularity between the two MS.
Hey do Anybody know where can i buy this online or is destiny gundam will be release in the usa? please any one coz i just want it really bad...
If you want to buy it, you shoud order it from www.hlj.com for 7000 yen (app. 65 us bucks), or check your nearest hobby shop, they should have it.
LOL, looks like a butterfly... But still it looks cool, in it's own butterfli-ey kind of way...
I'm thinking of ordering this model. But I was thinking of getting Strike Freedom instead, but I already have Freedom, and they look almost the same. But I do think the fiery wings look pretty cool. Although it still doesn't look as cool as it is, in the anime, =(
if it weren't for the "butterfly mode" destiny would have more fans. No offense but this gundam is just a piece of junk for me
