MG UNICORN Gundam Cometh


!!! MABUHAY 2008 !!!


first of all, i would like to greet everyone a HAPPY NEW YEAR! and more great toy collections to come! hehehe. and FINALLY!!! my own 3 units of Master Grade #102 RX-0 UNICORN Gundam "Ver.Ka"! what a great kit to welcome my New Year, eh? w00t! w00t! ^^,

oh, words cannot express how i feel about this kit. got them last Dec. 29. from the moment i saw it at the back of (fellow MechaPinoy member) M1g's car, to the moment i got hold of it... it felt quite nice. but the overall feeling is unexplainable. dunno why... but i think, it's the same 'feeling' when i met my wife before... naks. i'm becoming so emotional because of this gorgeous kit. hehehe. ^^, i'm sure i'm gonna feel the same way once again, when i get hold of my PlayArts Final Fantasy VII Cloud + Daytona Hardy Set next year. hahaha! ^^,

ok, here's the photo of the boxes. btw, it's almost the same size of Master Grade Freedom Gundam. so i guess, it's quite big for a standard "Ver.Ka" box.


the reason i ordered 3 units is because i never want to transform this kit to one form to another when it's displayed. esp when it's already painted. i'm planning to display all of them in their respective modes -- UNICORN Mode and NT-D DESTROY Mode. and also, as you noticed on the various website reviews, the 'Horn' in Unicorn mode is somehow 'opened', or should i say, there's a 'gap in-between', when it's closed. so it will be an awkward to display the Unicorn mode like that. and the third one, well, it's for future project -- an 'Amuro Customed Unicorn Gundam.' no NT-D Destroy mode for him. hehehe. :D i'd like it best when it's in Unicorn mode. it's kinda refreshing to see a different take on Gundam. just what i explained to fellow GreatToys board forum member Lotur, when the Unicorn transforms into NT-D mode, it looks like a regular 'Gundam'. with mouth piece, V-fins, etc. you get the idea. hehehe. :D but when in Unicorn mode the overall look is not too GM-ish (like everyone said because of the head) and not too Gundam-ish either. so it's really a different take on Gundam this time without its signature look. ^^,


once again, thanks to fellow MechaPinoy member, M1gs for getting this gorgeous kits and to fellow GreatToys board member, Lotur for the 'mini-EB' last December. thanks guys! ;)

be sure to check back here once in awhile for the Unicorn's ~Snapbuilt and Kit Review~


thanks for looking! ^^,
