Re: Gundam (00) Question?

Not really a gundam collector but there are a couple of options.

(Didn't read no model kits, but the info is roughly here still since i typed it out anyways)
-1/144 HG (make sure you only get HG, High Grade) scale model kits
-1/100 models (they are generally decent)
-1/100 MG (iirc there are only Exia and 00 + Qan and a few variations right now, these are the most detailed and have an inner skeletal frame)


-MSiA (Mobile Suits in Action? These toys are about 4-5" iirc, and they have pretty good poseability and playability but are sort of small and some of them don't look that good)
-Robot Spirits/Damashii (These are generally the best action figures for 00, imo, but some of the early ones aren't really that good tbh. They are a bit shorter than the HG 1/144 kits but are more playable than the model kits)

I would say just go with the Robot Damashiis, they're good in terms of quality and playability, but some are pricey.

Re: Gundam (00) Question?

Huh, pretty cool, didn't know about Robot Spirits/ Damashii. I'm not really a gundam guy either, but would love a Wing 0, Epyon, and Tallgeese in this series.

Unfortunately looks like the only Gundam Wing Endless Waltz figure in this class they have is Tallgeese III...

Re: Gundam (00) Question?

Alright, I have a question of my own, those gundam wing action figures that were released in North America at mass retail years back...what is that line technically called? I've think I've seen people referring to it as MSiA, but I've also seen that acronym used to describe figures clearly not from the line I'm talking about (as they contain far more detail than the north american versions I have so far).

Any help?

Re: Gundam (00) Question?

As far as I remember, they were MSIA (= Mobile Suit In Action).
I don't know if the US Wing series toys were from exactly from that line, though.
The toyline with the same name in Japan actually included pretty much Gundams from every damn universe, and were packaged in fancy boxes and all with lots of accessories. I don't own any, however.
