Not really MSIA/EMSIA persay, but close enough. Here's some pics of the In Action Offshoot (IAO) Xabungle.

The WZC was expected. They better give me an EMSIA Tallgeese III to go along with it though.

So far they've only done Reals for the In Action Offshoot line. I wonder if/when they're going to start dabbling in the Supers. Since all Sunrise properties will be considered, they've got a bunch to choose from.

Just going by MSIA/EMSIA/Arch Rival figures....3, from what I can remember. I don't really have a problem with an EMSIA WZC, I just wish that they'd give the other Gundam Wing Gundams some love. An EMSIA Heavyarms Custom or Sandrock Custom would rock my world. IMHO, all the Endless Waltz stuff is due for an upgrade. MSIAs of Vayeate and Mercurius would be awesome as well.

I've actually decided to sell off my US Endless Waltz figures, and buy the Japanese versions (they've got extra hands and, IIRC are panel lined) getting re-released this fall, as well as the EMSIA WZC. It's looking pretty nice.

Here's to hoping they maybe redo the EW wing suits as EMSIA's, although if they leave out Wui Fei, I'm fine with that. But at the Very least they should make a Tallgeese 3.

I don't think that's happening anytime soon. Bandai is actually re-releasing the Japanese EW MSIAs (except the Wing Zero Custom for obvious reasons) at the same time as the EMSIA Wing Zero Custom is being released. That probably would've been the most likely time for any other EW EMSIAs to be released, and they aren't doing it.

I'd be behind an EMSiA Tallgeese 3 if it came with a dobergun so I didn't have to display it with the stupid Megacannon. Otherwise, gimmie EMSiA Tallgese I.

I'm not really a huge fan of the MSIA line, it's getting better but I preffer the EMSIA line a whole lot better. Arg, I just wish Bandai would give Wing a little more love, that isnt' always in the form of Wing/Wing Zero. Talgesse and Androck are awsome lookign suits, I think peope will buy them if they release them.

Talgesse and Androck are awsome lookign suits, I think peope will buy them if they release them.

I really don't know what criteria Bandai uses when it comes to picking what gets made into EMSIAs. For the most part, they're pretty much all classic designs and/or main character mobile suits. However, the more recent announcements throw me for a loop (Gelgoog Cannon, Gelgoog High Mobility Type Ridden Custom, Real Type Gundam). These last 3 seem like they're just concentrating on getting the most out of existing molds.

As far Wing/Endless Waltz getting more figure love, I think the series' current popularity is what's causing the current drought. Right now it seems that fans only have UC and CE on the brain, that's why Bandai is sticking with it. I actually think Turn-A will probably get an EMSIA before any of the other Wing/Endless Waltz mobilesuits, as I expect Bandai to cash in as much as possible with the excitement surrounding the MG Turn-A Gundam.

I'm actually hoping for the 4 main Destiny units getting EMSIAed before all is said and done. The Strike Freedom because the MSIA was crap, the Infinite Justice because the MSIA was lacking, the Legend because it doesn't have a figure yet and the Destiny just to round it out. I also want an EMSIA Strike with the 3 main Striker packs redone. They did a Strike Noir, so I don't see why a Strike would be much harder.

I think it's all in the luck of the draw. Bandai usually follows a pattern, but sometimes they deviate from it. Predicting what's coming out next is like trying to predict the weather...sometimes you know what's coming, sometimes it's totally different from what you expect.

Well I think getting a Strike set wouldn't be too hard since they're doing mold recyling, you think they were Hasbro. Albeit we'll see if they take the good route and give us at least three Striker Packs, I mean a IWSP would be nice but I dont' expect it. The sad thing with them reusing those gelgoog molds is I wasn't really impressed with Char's Gelgoog whatsoever.

Well with Wing stuff not being popular I don't think anythign has really been released in what 8-9 years, with the exception of a couple of Wing Zero Custom things. Maybe I'm just bitter because I didn't think the figures of model kits got a fair shake the first time around. I think me and three other people are waiting for Leo kits.

I think I'm jsut going to have to put up with the fact that they make more or less nothing but UC stuff in the EMSIA line.

Don't lose your hope yet Quattro. They are releasing remastered DVDs of Gundam Wing in Japan, so maybe that'll generate interest for them to do some more Gundam Wing stuff.

They do about 7-8 EMSIAs a year, this year so far we have/will be getting: Char's Gelgoog, Strike Noir, Gelgoog Cannon, Johnny's Gelgoog, Wing Zero Custom and the Gundam Real Type. That leaves 1-2 more EMSIAs up in the air for 2007. You never know what's going to be put out.

The thing is that UC is so big that there are hundreds of MS to choose from compared to the rest (CE, AC, CC, AW and FC combined aren't even close to equaling the UC numbers or mobile suits to choose from.

At least Wing/Endless Waltz is getting a taste of EMSIA. Some series don't even have MSIAs yet (Turn-A, Victory, Gundam X).

On another note: I'm still pissed that Bandai didn't make a 1/100 of the TV Heavyarms or Heavyarms Kai.

Hmmm, you're probally right, but lets hope the re-release of the Wing DVDs, sparked some renewed interest in Wing. And maybe they'll give us a Talgesse 2 EMSIA so Wing has something to go with.

And I would love to see the Wing Gundams getting MG versions, or at the very least new 1/100 for the TV suits. I'd love to get a TV version of Sandrock in 1/100.

Well I'm completely sold... :D

However, I still wonder...if they were able to do this, and the Providence correctly...why didn't they do the Strike Freedom properly? At least this bodes well for any future MSIA Legend... :lol:
