I'm still unimpressed. Less than HG level articulation, pre-built GN drive (which are VERY noisy, by the way), less than PG level detail in the internal frame, 300+ price tag, and looks more like an MG than a PG. The LED's and less-than-average effort into the spinning GN drives doesn't warrant a 300+ price tag.
Bandai does not get my money this time.

Hear, hear!
I put in a preorder when this kit was fist announced but I've since then canceled. What really got me was how the shoulders couldn't twist forward or backward. I had a pose ready in my head, with the Raiser wings swooped back or pointed forward in attack. I'm not ready to drop 300 on something that I can't dynamically pose like I'd want.

Even among Korean Gunpla community, a lot of people are split between either being impressed (enough to buy this as their first PG) or disappointed due to several points.
1. Many of them are annoyed about the how waist joint looks (right above skirt armor)
2. Ankle joint
3. Inner frame - I guess most that mentioned "lack" of inner frame detail compares to Strike Gundam and lack of pistol/spring type gimmicks around exposed area around joints (lack of exterior armor area)
The argument for this is that 00 Gundam series are designed expecting to have simplified inner frame as well has having power transfered by GN condenser and cables (Exia) makes traditional joint details not necessary.
About that......
if its going to be your 1st PG, id say grab it. otherwise get a different PG like a MKII which is heavy on detail
Student
IF this was cheaper.. id buy it...
About that......
yeah its pricy for such a kit. heck astray red frame was more pricey then zeta down here in AU

The big deal is that the GN drives seem to be held up better than the HG. With the HG, you can't really pose it, since with the Raiser attached, the GN drives are just too heavy.
