Not quite finished yet...
it incorporates a new reduced (12th iteration) head design
new chest frame architecture with top access cockpit,
new lightened and slimmer arm structure,
new waist design with a torso turntable pivot,
more "realistic" hip armor attachment,
throwbot gearbox knee joints and ankle joints,
and fully removable body armor allowing for a cutaway view
of internal components.

I think I'll retrofit a lot of this technology to Zero Five (red),
since it already looks old and clunky in comparison (and I haven't even put
it on my website yet).

"K"

So, this is going to be the final roundup, eh?  Well, I guess you would run out
of space id you kept building such large gundams...

The new one is cool; it looks a little smaller than the others.  Is this the
gundam that you started a while back which you said reminded you of something
from "MS 08th"?  It looks familiar, for some reason...

My favorite part by far is the chest/torso area.  Are the Greyish/blue gundams
the "good guys", which defend against the black and red "dark gundams"?
Weren't they all created by the same evil scientist?  I guess I'll have to tune
in for more info...

I don't know if they have such places on the East Coast, but in S.F., there is
this anime store in the Sony Metreon which has a whole room dedicated to
gundam.  They occasionally have new displays and what not.  I was thinking how
cool it woould be if they had a "K" Gundam on display there!  I don't know,
Maybe you might want to look into such a thing...I'm sure there would be lots
of anime stores that would pay well to have such a model on display.

Later, Chris
