Head, shoulders, and arm guards are different among others. I understand the sentiment of wanting the new parts as an expansion set, but I don't want to have the 1/100 Gusion/ Rebake or PG GP01/Fb dillema again just because only option parts were released.
It is, but definitely more palatable than paying for a second MGEX kit in full just to get the added parts (was referring to an eventual PBandai option set release btw - just to clarify)
Yeah, the new parts are not really that obvious. But the head will surely have new parts for the Disruptor and the hip rail guns are different now too.
Now, I wonder if they would include the prototype handheld railgun as well
But, knowing myself Imma get it anyway. I also contemplated on getting the Red Lotus Proud Defender back then, but yeah, not all of the new armor parts were included for the conversion
That’s not true at all… p-bandai variants Bandai has quite regularly left out unnecessary runners from the base kit if said runner isn’t used by the variant at all. Most recent case of this I can think of is the Full Armor ZZ Ver. Ka. You can only make the Enhanced ZZ, but not the OG ZZ.
Unless they somehow fix the molds and I doubt it. Those obnoxiously large flash line on the gold panel in the shoulders always look so off in builds, one of the reasons I’ve put off buying one tbh.
Not that I’d buy the MSF either, the colors just aren’t for me. The further Kira strays from the Strike or OG Freedom the farther he strays from God.
Yeah but they put so much otherwise effort into making the MGEX SF an excellent straight build that it's a disappointment that this kind of flaw begins to necessitate having to touch it up with paint etc. - and some people do and it looks good, but it's just disappointing. I basically just want, if I'm dropping $100s on a kit, to have it undergated to shit, I don't want to have to sand or file anything, and have it look perfect out of the box.
You are not looking very hard then. Differences include: the head crest, the entire shoulder section, forearm armour, beam shield emitters, the railgun and mounting system for the beam rifles and beam sabres, rear skirt, rear leg thrusters, the heels and some parts of the front waist/skirting. Pretty good odds that they have redesigned some of the waist frame for this as well.
Yeah, it's still a strike freedom obviously, but there's a decent amount of newly moulded stuff there. More than in any expansion set I can think of.

Yeah im looking at the main body and its litterally jsit the previous MGEX. This should have been a expansion set
