Awesome! I was going to ask you to post about this. Excited about the Guntank and the Exia!

Exia will have a special Ed with LED gimmick and S2 repaired cloak and bits apparently.

Yeah, totally stoked about the MG Exia. I like the LED installments they did with the HG 1/100 Gundam OO, so this will be really interesting!

Found the links I was looking for in Kevin's post. A little dissapointed by another hardgraph jeep. I was expecting the Zeon Amphibious Personnel Carrier to be next. Already have plans for it!

Hey, didn't Large already scratch-build this thing!? 

So, turns out the 1/35 Unicorn is a display only piece? Ngee Khiong has some nice pics from the show too.

And another PG this year? WOW! Damn Bandai! I still need to get me a PG Astray!  Ngee has pics of it I believe. Another RX-78-2.

As far as I know it's not classified as a Perfect Grade.  If anything it reminds me of a souped-up, scaled-up version of the "Metal Grade Gundam" from several years back...  (Price is kind of similar, too.  :)  )
