MG100体目

静岡ホビーショーに行って来た。展示会に入ったらまず向かったのはBANDAIのブース。100作目のMGは楽しみだった。しかし目にしたのはなんとターンAガンダム!まっまさか。ひげガンダムがこんな歴史的瞬間を!大ショック。
予想なんですが、BANDAIはわざとターンAを選んだのは話題性があるからかな。普通のモビルスーツだったら「ふーん」となるだけかもしれないから。

At first I thought the Turn A looked kind of funky but as time passed on, it just looked cooler to me. Also reading up about this in other places and people are saying the one on the left is just a modded version, not the official version.

i think this is the least expected gundam to be selected as the 100th MG. i would have prefer something like Nightingale, or GP04

It's about time Bandai deviated from the norm a bit with Turn A. I'm stoked personally! If the MG Turn A turns out anything like the mods displayed (or anything better than what exists commercially), I'll be satisfied!

I've never liked the Turn-A Gundam's design. Although this announcement is a bit surprising, it's not really exciting at all to me. The only cool "moustache" mech to me is Soulgain from SRW. I pray Syd Mead never does Gundam designs...ever again. Well at least the mystery is revealed and we can move on to guessing what #101 will be. My MG wishlist for the rest of 07-08 are, in no particular order: Infinite Justice, Legend, Victory 2 Assault Buster, X Divider, Heavyarms vers. Ka, Deathscythe vers. Ka, Tallgeese III, Vigna Ghina, Astray Red Frame, and/or Divine Testament. LOL the likelihood of any of those being made is slim to none.

OMG, OMG, OMG! It felt like such a faroff possibility but they did pick Turn A after all! Personally, it's a nice deviation. It's a special number so the mobile suit has to be unique. The one on the left appears to have been redesigned by Katoki. If you look at his sketch of the Turn A in MAHQ.net, it matches the upcoming MG look which is quite nice. The one on the right is the original non-grade 1/100 which appears to be based on the design by Syd Mead. CyberSynaptic is right. Syd Mead shouldn't design Gundams...evarrrr. I don't know why they never tapped the chap who made the Astray designs. But darn, I can't wait. When will this baby be released?

1/100 scale models (be it Gundam or other kinds of similar-sized mechas) are a tad too space-consuming for me. I much prefer 1/144 scale.

Bandai seems to have redesigned Turn A drastically to be more Gundam-like, especially the mustache and the face. According to Turn A's mechanical setting, it'll be taller (around 2 or 3cm more) than other MGs. But I'm more interested in knowing just how good it is in terms of action and special features. Hope that it'll be as good as Zaku II Ver. 2.0, or better.
So, any news on who actually won the MG 100 Countdown competition? I can't wait to see the special coated version of this MG

A real disappointment. If bandai want to celebrate the 100th MG, it should come out with a cool and wicked gundam. If its a 101th mg or so on, i dont really care that much. I was really hoping for a MSN-04II Nightingale to make its debut. It's big and grand. hehehe.. well, lets just wait for the 101th to come out... :)

No. This one's official. The sketches behind the model kits are proof enough. I highly doubt they'd create this much of an uproar and then just change it all of a sudden. That would piss off people as well as lead to a lot of confusion.
I do notice that there are some Syd Mead fans who don't like the possibility of the Seira Masuo mod being the basis for MG 100's design.

If the 'moustache' was a bit straight then maybe it would look better... well, maybe throw in the 'mohawk' piece from Justice as well. Apologies to any Turn A fans; I got too used to suits with top Vs.

I'm actually content that its Turn A since that means that Bandai has finally gotten it's rear end to engineer something new rather than reintroduce older suits (OYW Gouf, Dom etc.). There also appears to be a lot of detail on the Turn A's torso so its not as bland as some of the other models we've encountered.

I think the basis for the MG 100 would be the sketch in between the mod and the 1/100 non-grade model kit. The one on the right is a mod of the non-grade 1/100 Turn A by Seira Masuo. It's a mod featured in June's Hobby Japan. You should easily find that pic in my blog. The basis for the design will be the sketches behind the picture.

Wow, this is a schocker (in a good way). I kind of forgot that there was a Turn A Gundam, but I am one for the choice. The design of the Turn A is basically the same as the RX-78, the difference being that one is from the distant future and the other was the distant past.
Danny, you have to look past the mustache. Think of them as heavy sideburns. haha.

I have been doing Gundam kits since 1994 so just imagine how many kits & figures I have bought and built as well as cherished....I don't know how to say this but...Bandai gives us NO GRADE versions of MS that we want to be introduced as MG's, and now the most sought after affair of the next 100th MG is the most ridiculous looking design of a man who doesn't know crap about the soul of an MS. WHAT WERE YOU BANDAI GUYS THINKING!!! Do you guys even listen to what your clients all over the world wants? Well I got to let it out somehow...Well then I hope bandai will be issuing a new PG kit (hopefully a new RX-78 OYW style with lots of lines and a new frame design and gimmicks or a gold plated Shiki with a similar Strike PG frame). well to all of us let's hope for the best and pray that they(Bandai) get a new creative marketing manager and advisor soon.
P.S: To Harumasa Suzuki of Bandai CS,tnx for the support you always give to loyal Gundam clients. may you relay to your sacho how sad some, not all of the Gundam community are, so pls gidder done ya'all.

I don't know. Perhaps Turn A's going to be redone by BEECRAFT since it appears that the general consensus is that Syd Mead failed completely the moment he put the cockpit in the "crotch" and put the v-fin right in the chin. If BEECRAFT will redo it, perhaps it would look a tad better. I really didn't like the moustache but the Turn A storyline was a nice change and Moonlight Butterfly was awesome.
I think we simply need to look at the different angles as to why Bandai picked Turn A as MG 100. First, it HAD to be a Gundam. So grunts and zeke units pretty much fell out of the list. Since everybody's looking forward to MG 100, Bandai would most likely pick something that would bring revenue to the franchise that isn't earning as much: Turn A. The announcement alone has brought curiosity to those who are moderately interested in Gundams and other fans to reconsider the series itself.

Out of all the potential gundam or Zakus in list.. how can they put a Turn A before everything else.
It s in argueably the most silly series out of the lot.
there are nothing significance in the gundam & weapon design except for the mushtache.

It is so-so, only because I don't have a strong opinion about it (I've never seen Turn-A-Gundam, but I have seen a few of the suits from that series). I would like it a lot more if it had less indentations on it, it looks interesting but I would actually pass over this model in favor of more sharp ones in terms of quality AND shape =).

What a great way to have Turn A Gundam to be MG 100. I know alot of gundam modellers won't like this kit mostly because
a) The mecha itself look weird or suck
b) The v-fin
c) A show that isn't a typical gundam show that we love or know
d) The designer who design the mecha
and the list goes on and on....
But really, think about it. What is a best way to celeberate the MG 100 by making a model that isn't produce before. Turn A Gundam, is a kit which didn't have any justice when the show came out in Japan. Most people just gag when they see the gundam for the first time like it was the ugly gundam in the entire gundam saga. Also, most of them don't like the show because of the pacing. To tell the turth, Turn A Gundam, in my opinion, is one of the best show and should be with the top guys like Mobile Suit Gundam, Zeta Gundam, Victory Gundam, and so on. The reason for this is the storyline, character developnment, and a show which is almost like a drama type show that don't follow the pace of the typical gundam show (mecha fighting, characters talking trash against the enemies, female characters who have breast transplant a little bit more than it needed, characters which make you think, wtf are they on the series, plot that is written by someone who don't know how to write a decent plot, and so on). Also, why don't we celeberate the MG 100 by making a gundam model to celeberate the creator of Gundam of his final TV Gundam Series that he produce. It will be an honor to make a model kit for his final TV series that he produce.
For the people who want some other gundam model kit than Turn A Gundam, don't worry about it too much. Sooner or later, Bandai have to make them because of the popularity of the Seed and Seed destiny show. It's not that Bandai will stop making model kit after 100. As of now, I am betting Bandai will produce more version 2.0 kits of they earliest gundam kit they produce way back when Master Grade came out for a while. Then they have to start making kit that isn't in universal century (they isn't many popular UC mecha they can produce now that isn't made). Anyhow, I am going to get the kit for free (like every gundam kit that I have) when it come out in Japan. Thank god for some connection that I have (know someone who work in Bandai company in Japan). Anywhere, time to go back to work now.

I can't say I like the design. Looks cheap and made out of junk. Lot's of better MG's I am looking forward to, can't say this is one of them.
Gotta agree this looks like a Lego Gundam.

WOW i already heard rumours about this and it turns out to be true :D. I think this is a pretty good MG since it hasnt been made before. Years ago,I originally hated the design, but a few weeks later and it grew on me. After that i dragged my mom around and begged her to buy a Turn A kit for me >.>

Not for me, it looks like it has a bunch of knobs on it to open doors or something. The design isn't the usual sleek gundam that I like buying, plus the helmet which really isn't what I'm used to or have in my collection. Gonna pass this one up.

Oh boy Turn A Gundam is #100! I can hardly contain my excitement! ^o^ To celebrate I bought the new Zaku MGs. I really enjoy the Zaku. Next to the RX-78, it's probably the most recognized mobile suit in the Gundam Universe. The Turn A Gundam... Well safe to say it's at the bottom of my list.
I never gave it much thought before, but now I agree with your conclusion Danny. Bandai picked it as #100 because they know no one will forget which Gundam is #100.
It's no secret that I like many of Sid Mead's designs, but Turn A Gundam is not one of them.

I'll admit I'm like most with this decision, WTF! But it's interesting because at least it's not something that's been done to death(RX-78)before. If it looks like the first pic it will be fine with alittle mod, but what's up with the feet? Couldn't they make them more "normal" looking instead of women's high heals? Oh well, here's to hoping that they will do Tallgesse III or Heavy Arms as a MG soon.

At least it's not some overrated Gundam we usually see on TV. I like my Gundams simple: arm them with a beam rifle, shield, vulcans, and a pair of beam sabers and they're ready to kick arse faster than you can say ZAFT NO TAMENI!

If you dislike the mustache so much, take it off. Try it with the images. Much more interesting mech, IMHO; sort of a "next generation" Zaku.
Any chance of a MG The-O/Geeoh? That'd be one great hunk-o-styrene.
I was also hoping for a Zwarth to follow their Dunbine, but that's just me...

100th or not, as long its a MG, just grab it. btw, you all should start saving some cash for the Shin Musha Gundam MG 1/100. really a masterpiece.

not a fan of its design so didn't get it. heard sales for MG turn A isn't good as well. going for less than half the price in japan.

Awsome. I loved Turn A gundam. I really like the whole discovery of hidden technology thing. Plus turn A itself is awsome. I'm not a great fan of the mustaschio but the rest of the gundam is perfection.

It looks epic, yet hilarious at the same time! Maybe the mustache thing is its own type of half-mask?

I had the chance to talk to Syd Mead about the mustache design, and it's really nothing more than the old emblem turned around. From a design and defensive standpoint, it makes sense. Also, it harkens back to old Samurai battle masks that way too. So you guys NOT liking Syd's design have over looked the small fact that Syd will always go with a real life working and workable design over the Joel Shumacher Vegas stage play crap now showing up as robotic design in Japanese animation. It's shamefully unrealistic and silly. And silly is something Syd will never do when reality can be used in favor of fantasy.
It's an excellent design, looks more doable, workable and probable than any giant robot design I've ever seen.
Syd always designs a structure from the inside out. Think about it. Because what you see in the Turn A Gundam is a robot that could exist if the tech existed to do it.

The Syd Mead design for Gundam is by far the best. I pray he does ten more even more practical and correctly thought out mods. He's a genius and his designs are as close to real world as Sci Fi and Fantasy can hope to get in this life time. I've had the opportunity to speak to Syd about why he made the choices he did on this Gundam design, and on the Star Blazers designs. Like all proficient designers, he took the existing design and created the interior outward to the shell making it as real as possible. Good design dictates things be done this way. What you get is what just "might" work if it were real.
