Me.
I cannot say why but I like the damn thing.

>>15514778
It's gorgeous.
stick to gundams
>>15514778
Target to not-poorfags.
>>15514778
I remember not liking this at all when I first saw it. Who knew all it had to do to win me over was spread its legs a bit just like OP's mun?
>>15514778
fuck you
I like it
>>15514778
I wish it was more like the original line-art and less angular, but it is still a sexy kit. Kind of like the Mk III.
Model Kit when?
>>15514778
>The hell is this thing's target audience supposed to be?
The Re100 model line is for designs not popular enough to get a MG.
Releasing Neo-Zeon designs from ZZ like the Bawoo and Hamma-Hamma to go along with the release of the Ver Ka ZZ Gundam is smart.
>>15515179
>The Re100 model line is for designs not popular enough to get a MG.
they should just stick with High Grade kits in that situation then
>>15514990
Never because they want you to buy both a Zaku II and a Zeta.
Hell they even show this in the instruction manual do they not?
>>15515196
But then it wouldn't be a 1/100, which defeats the purpose of the line entirely. Basically the designs might sell well in 1/100 but the price they would have to charge for an MG would possibly scare off the market for the design. So they make a sort of simplified version at a lower cost.
Think of it as the 1/100 equivalent of HG, an affordable 1/100 that can add some variety to the scale.
>>15514778
>The hell is this thing's target audience supposed to be?
people with taste
so why do zeon factions have anti new type mobile suits?
the Feds don't use newtype specialist suits in the same manner as Zeon. Excepting the Nu.
>>15515252
So it lacks the quality of an MG and the compatibility of an HG. Great.
You guys forgot the other purpose of the RE100 line. It's to entice poorfags and 1/144 only buyers into the 1/100 scale with affordable niche designs that might not otherwise be getting a kit at all and tempt them to go on to buy MG kits. That's why they occasionally pair them up alongside similar MG releases.
>>15515281
>So it lacks the quality of an MG
Obviously you have not bought a Re100 kit.
>the compatibility of an HG.
You are going to have a Bawoo, Hamma Hamma and ZZ, all in 1/100.
Stop whining like a faggot.
>>15514778
>1/100 baund doc
why you do this to me anon
>>15514778
Neo Zeon designs are for true patricians only.
>>15514778
Me.
Haters shall fornicate among themselves.
>>15515312
>affordable for poorfags
>about $45+shipping
I can get an old 1/60 kit at that price if I look hard enough. This isn't very affordable for poorfags at all.
>>15514778
Preordered the instant it was up. It will go nicely with the ZZ ver. Ka that I'll get later.
>we might see a Re/100 Dreissen
MEGA THICC

>Lacks the quality of an MG
My RE 100 Bawoo looks better than a lot of MGs, and the transformation is really satisfying
>>15514778
Jesus christ, that's awful. Why would they make it look like those shitty Chinese third party kits instead of the actual design?
>>15517412
>Why would they make it look like Okawara's janky looking lineart?
>>15517427
>Okawara's
>>15517412
Those "shitty Chinese third party kits" look closer to the original lineart than the RE1/100
>>15517438
I was referring to stuff like this. I purposely didn't say "garage kits".
>>15517412
I'm really not sure I see it this time. Seems to me like it just got the 'standard' slimdown for modern times. I do notice that it is much more angular. Meh, I guess I just like it, sorry you don't.
>>15517442
Oh those, yeah I'll agree with you on that. They look like overly detailed dog shit.
>>15517453
>I do notice that it is much more angular.
So, you do see it. It's practically a completely different design at this point.
>>15517477
Maybe because the old one looks like actual shit and is unfeasible to make a good plamo of?
>>15517477
Yes, it is drastically different. I should have said that I don't see it as a problem, but seeing >>15517442 is starting to sway me. I don't exactly hate the new RE/100 design, but I'm starting to miss the sloped shoulders and skirt of the original more and more. Oh well, gonna get it anyway, love me some Hamma-Hamma.
>>15514778
Me, because I love this crazy thing. It's got thrusters out the ass, and it's very aesthetic, even if the silly claw hands look dumb.
Don't you compare it to the misshapen abortion that is the Baund Doc.
>>15515312
With the Efreet Custom, we've actually learned that if the RE/100 sells well enough, they actually have nonzero chances of making an HG run.
I'm curious as to how many RE/100 Efreet Customs they moved, since by the next Gundam Expo, they had a prototype 1/144 Efreet Custom presented.
>>15517442
>FSS Style
What the fuck how?
>>15517490
the efreet has atleast 3 or 4 variants that they can reuse the mould for though.
>>15517518
Good goddamn question.
>>15517412
Because it actually needs to be able to move its arms and legs? The lineart looks like a retarded modern art statue. Its knees don't even have separation for them to bend and there are no joints on the elbows either.
>>15517518
>>15517566
I mean, it certainly isn't the poster child of FSS-style mecha, but I can see what they meant. Although the Quebeley already has the massive shoulders and pointy feet, so I don't think they really added any 'FSS-like' qualities to it.
>>15517582
The original Qubeley was already designed by Nagano; tacking on a bunch of unnecessary crap like that lance doesn't make it any more "FSS Style" than the original design. Though that lance is the least of my problems with it.
>>15517575
That doesn't explain the flattening of all curvy surfaces.
>>15517582
Here's what an actual FSS styled Qubeley looks like.
>>15517589
>The original Qubeley was already designed by Nagano
Well there we go, explains why I thought it looked FSS-style. Also, I was agreeing with you, they didn't make it FSS-style and generally just made it ugly as fuck.
>>15517592
God, I'm so sorry for posting/displaying my autism so much, but that is fucking awesome.
>>15517582
>>15517589
Why bother with that thing when the Model Comprehend Qubeley already exists? It's as Nagano as you can get.
Baund Doc looked 100% better in Dragon's Heaven
>>15517601
Here, have a bigger one.
>>15517602
There's the G-System kit as well which is also based on this illustration like the MC one. Their Rick Dias is also really pretty.
>>15517606
I don't think anyone ever said otherwise.The original is still good tho.
>>15517442
What the actual fuck man
>>15517534
Four, at least.
We've seen the Efreet Custom, and there was the Schneid that somehow magically overtook it and is being released in July.
There's the Efreet Nacht, and as well the vanilla Efreet that I don't believe has ever left the MSV drawing board (but did get a GFF Zeonography model).
>>15517623
Wait, never mind. I was thinking of Silicon Tribe's Rick Dias.
1/100 when?
>>15517442
>there are people out there who actually paid $300 for this
>>15517623
>Their Rick Dias is also really pretty.
I love it too.
>>15517675
The custom of it made to look like the version in this illustration is also very nice.
