Gunpla - Linkin Park
I was just reading up on it, looks like Linkin Park is releasing a special edition of their new album which includes a HGUC 1/44 GP01Fb Full Vernian with a special color scheme designed by the band. The reason for this release is one of their songs is going to be used as the theme for a new Gundam game - which I think is fantastic and hope is released in the US.

I realize not everybody likes the band but I enjoy both the band and the Gundam series and one of the main reasons I'm purchasing it is to show support for the idea and hopefully they'll expand this to different artists/groups. It looks like the bundle will only be released in Japan though you can get it through CDJapan.

The color of the gundam might seem a little bland but it looks like the band designed the color scheme to match the cover of the new album. The gradient on the shield is the best example.
really now... although I do recall some Gunplas in the MV of "Somewhere I belong"
Was just about to say the same thing - Though less specific. Couldn't remember the video.

I think Mr. Hahn's dream just came true XD
My cousin told me he also liked the wing zero custom and was the vocalists favorite.
Join Zeon, LP!
On shopping list now.
That second picture makes me cry inside.
this one is totally superb, long live LP!
I like LP and Gundam how ever the new album is not up to the standard of previous albums its kinda well lame in my book im not trying too say it stinks... well ok I am saying it stinks there are a few songs on there that meet the expectations of their previous work but it still misses the mark... oh well ill go hide a bit for because of my views
