Continuing with the Glorious Gundam Goodness from Chara Hobby starting off with Full Armor Gundam - 1/100 scale and yours for a laughable 28,800 yen. Really like this but its not articulate. Me love me Gundams posable.

Cant quite remember the name but its from Stargazer. Which reminds me - watched the second installment of Stargazer and wanted to hit somebody at the end of it (the producer). What a waste of time.

The two Jagd Dogas (photo #4722) were created for Neo-Jion's two Newtype pilots in "Char's Counterattack."  The blue was for Char-wannabe Gyunei Guss.  The red was for the very young Quess Paraya.

Photo #4723 is the Re-GZ (Refined Gundam Zeta), Amuro Rey's initial mobile suit in "Char's Counterattack."

Photo #4728 is the Gundam F-90A ("Assault," I believe).

Good photos.  Thanks for posting them.  :)

Danny...you need to check out the Gundam: Char's Counterattack movie to explain why there are two Dogas. One belongs to Quess and the other belongs to Ginei (artificial Newtype). If anything, it's an awesome movie!

Are these models only available at Chara or will these eventually be sold to the general public at some point?

Oooh! but nobody got image 4727!

Thats the GAT-01A2R Slaughter Dagger
Its basically a Dagger unit equiped with an Aile pack like the ones used on the Strike.

For those who are unaware the differences between a Dagger and the Strike Dagger that we saw in Seed, the Dagger is essentially the Strike Dagger with more equipment and the ability to equip Striker packs.

I felt Stargazer Stage 2 was okay - to put thigns in perspective, remember that each of those 15-min eps is probably the equivalent of 5-7 SEED episodes - I can forgive the rushed pace if viewed from that perspective (though I have no idea why they wouldn't want to produce an ONA more than 45 min).

It probably took balls for him to kill off a main character shortly after introducing him/her (so as not to spoiler those of you who haven't watched yet). That, or sheer desperation to keep the storyline moving.

Wow! Wow! Wow!  So many great looking Gundams.  Makes me want to go out, buy a kit and start building.  I could use the stress relief right now.

I'm glad you took pictures of the paper kits.  I have been looking at these in a local shop.  Maybe I will try one now.  The Sazabi appears to have some mods done to it.  I seen a mod article in Dengeki Hobby so I guess that is from where you will start?  Looking forward to the mods you have planned.  The Sazabi has always been one of my favorites.

I will be in Japan during that time and would love to take some photos with you.

The gold one that you said looks like Hyaku Shiki Kai but isn't, is FA-100S Full Armor Hyaku Shiki Kai. As far as I can tell it's a MSV which has never been animated. I want it.

Hello people!
The pix here are great!
i think that my next model kit will definitely be the Verde Gundam 1/100, this version is much more appealing than the buster in the seed!
