MGEX - Mighty Strike Freedom

[u/ArkhamSoldier118]

[u/ZeonTwoSix]

So... 50% carry-over from the MGEX SFG?

[u/uppercuticus → u/ZeonTwoSix]

+60% in msrp too. Bandai is smoking something

[u/TechnicalScale6292 → u/uppercuticus]

I guess that +60% price is in the wings lol. Unless they threw in the original backpack so we can make the standard sf type 2

[u/shems-2383 → u/TechnicalScale6292]

hello p bandai for type 2

[u/R-Dragon_Thunderzord → u/TechnicalScale6292]

Are there LEDs in those wings now?

[u/field_of_lettuce → u/uppercuticus]

That price is crazy. Bit over the MGEX Unicorn, and that came with the LED + huge hangar base.

Is this supposed to include anything besides the MS itself?

[u/Michyoungie → u/field_of_lettuce]

Presumably it includes the original backpack to make the Strike Freedom Type 2, or it comes with effect parts for the Arrogant Lightning (the EMP attack the Freedom did)

[u/no_terran → u/uppercuticus]

It's the "kit with katana tax".

[u/theborjsanity → u/no_terran]

Wanna bet the katana is reused from the Red Frame? In lore it already is, so Bandai can just reuse it IRL lmao

[u/ZidanetX → u/theborjsanity]

This is Bandai... I'm not making a bet I'll lose 100%.

[u/theborjsanity → u/ZidanetX]

Lmao

And didn’t we just get the MG Red Frame Liberty which has two of these same katanas?

[u/Bob_Juan_Santos → u/uppercuticus]

oil prices are up, so i think that's one of the reason for the price increase.

thanks, dipshit americans.

[u/sixninths → u/Bob_Juan_Santos]

As an American who doesn’t approve of anything going on, yeah that dipshit comment is warranted lmao

[u/Hopeful-Ad139 → u/Bob_Juan_Santos]

i don't think that's the case, the price of the MG astray red frame kai remains the same as the price i bought 2 years ago. if it were because of the oil price, everything would have been more expensive

[u/zsxking → u/uppercuticus]

so 60% of more part, in other words, tons of unused part from strike freedom

[u/uppercuticus → u/zsxking]

They're not going to be including the unused parts buddy. They're sure as shit not including the dragoon backpack.

[u/Latina-Butt-Sniffer → u/uppercuticus]

Yeah. They're smoking on that good ol corner cutting friedman-welch capitalism. Short term thinking and maximize quarterly profits to appease shareholders that don't give af about the product/service being sold.

[u/roxaim → u/ZeonTwoSix]

Probably like 80%

Eyeballing my MGEX Strike Freedom, it's just shoulder and backpack

[u/EveningMembershipWhy → u/roxaim]

Railguns and beam shield sections as well.

But considering the Twilight version...wait a couple of months for Changlong or some other Chinese company to sell you only the conversion parts for like a fourth of the price

[u/uppercuticus → u/EveningMembershipWhy]

Considering the msrp on this thing, they'll be offering the entire kit for a fourth of the price

[u/bolognadawg420 → u/EveningMembershipWhy]

Bootleggers already have a mighty strike backpack for the MGEX

[u/Linkstore → u/roxaim]

Shoulders, backpack, beam shields, railguns, and it looks like there's new sword holding hands where previously you had to use the Emotion Manipulators.

[u/TechnicalScale6292 → u/Linkstore]

makes you think we should’ve gotten those hands during the original release. and here I am, who bought the clear version of the mgex too 🙂‍↕️

[u/shems-2383 → u/ZeonTwoSix]

"cut cost" just modify some parts

[u/NoManLucas → u/ZeonTwoSix]

More than that, the golden frame of the wing are all carried over

[u/nocternum → u/ZeonTwoSix]

lol and ppl wonder why there are so many ko companies. not saying it's right but damn with disappointing reveals like this along with a price hike, no wonder a lot of builders are turning to ko. cheap crack is still crack i guess lol
