I'll probably pick up the Vincent and Guren.

At least with Geass, unlike Gundam, you can take some comfort with the knowledge that they're not too likely to produce a million recolors and crap like that before releasing the cool stuff.

EDIT: Neat...the Air Cavalry comes with a beam shield (which is named "Blaze Luminous", apparently).

Argh, the post office delivered my Lancelot models while the house was empty. ><! Now I have to see about getting them tomorrow.

s-S-STOP, PULL IT OUT!!!

BAH. Where's my Gawain!!!

My guys either just shove it in the mail box or leave it on the door step. Same with the UPS/Fedex, they either just leave it or ring the bell and don't even wait and just leave it.

Though I hope they don't screw up my AC3 book.

They actually left me a little card in the mailbox. I think I can either pick it up at the post office tomorrow, or leave the card in the mailbox with the option for "leave item at my address".

They used to do that as well at my old place. Though usually they try a second attempt, and if it fails then you can go pick it up.

Picked the models up today.

Planned mods:
-Adding slash harkens to hip armor.
-Modding one VARIS into normal mode.
-Adding removable Factspheres.

I briefly debated making one of these as Zero's Custom Lancelot (IE in Gawain colors), but decided to modify one of them instead.

I kinda want the Guren 1/35..but like a month or two later Megahouse will be coming out with a nifty looking Guren Nishiki figure.

The proportions on Megahouse's figure don't look quite right to me. I'd go for the model, if it were up to me.

So uh

I don't watch Code Goose or anything, but do those 1/35 Lancelot Air Calvary thingys look like shit unpainted? "Shit" being equivalent to still missing 25+% of paint apps AFTER you put the stickers on.

Well, use this pic to compare.

The pic on the right is fully built but unpainted. Honestly, it mostly just lacks a couple of touches here and there of gold and maroon. One problem is that since they do "built-in hands" on the weapons for this model, it means the hands holding the sword hilts start off gold. Additionally, the rifle starts a flat gray and needs a LOT of paint (blue, gold, black, maroon, orange) to match its appearance in the anime.

Things that pic notes...

-The Vincent is getting two model releases - normal and commander type. No clue what the difference is. However, we now know that its weapons are lance-type MVS. The regular type comes out in May and the commander in June.
-OSiA: Guilford's Gloucester is set for May, Cornelia's in June, and Guren for July. I'm banking that the Guren is being kept late so they can release it with the goodies it gains in R2 (new head, float unit) without spoiling anything.

Imagine this would confirm that they cheaped out and didn't include any of Guilford's extra equipment.

Is the CG model world so overstuffed with Lancelot junk that they have to force you to buy them for your Vincent in order to sell off some of the surplus?

I love how the store shot in the bottom left proves my point perfectly.

What is this and where do I buy a model for it?

It's the Lancelot Club, one of the two original machines from the PS2/PSP game Lost Colors. And the only way to get a model of it is to kitbash, since they haven't made one and probably never will.

Thanks. On the bright side, I think it's just a repaint aside from that horn.
