Meh, I want the Virgo (I) and Serpent released.

EDIT: And somewhere in there, the Windam and all its variants. Poor Windam was too neat to deserve grunt status...

it is show accurate..

the lack of paint is kinda disappointing but thats how the colour is in the show..I agree about the panel line but looking at how this line try to capture the screen accuracy, its forgivable(at least there are some of it unlike the sazabi) and I think if you added some black lining for the panel line on him,it would look even better.

The lack of panel lines is forgivable, but you're right: it wold look so much better with some.

Simple at its best

Love the GM comic, but that's a little harsh: especially when he's coming into a room with would-be cannon fodder suits (in the wrong pilots hands). btw HGUC Sniper? I love that model!

I think what this figure has is the best of the Robot Spirits toy design but maintains its artistic simplicity.

Heh. All I have built so far

Heh.
All I have built so far have been RGMs (and a couple of Gundams [which aren't UC]), so that club scene was a little restrictive, yeah.

And the GM Sniper II isn't my favorite kit, but he's aight.

The Leo is a rather simple suit, so it gets away with that pretty well.

To Each Their Own

Huh, dibs for review then. I honestly loved that model.

I think the Leo's strength is its simplicity, because all of the future models from the series became more complex and overloaded like the Virgo.

The MG Tallgeese model is designed in such a way Bandai could easily convert it into a Leo, but only time will tell before we know where that line goes.

I just love the Leo, it's

I just love the Leo, it's such a pretty little grunt ms. No frills, just military simplicity.

Now if only they'd do this guy in master grade format

Oh no, don't touch the Gundam

Oh no, don't touch the Gundam NOOOO

*BOOOOM*

Never let a Leo touch a Gundam! They just evaporate! Heck, don't even say "It's a Gundam" too loud or they burst into flames.

Seriously though: LOVE IT! I don't have any Leos beyond my small batch of MSiA ones, but I really want this guy at some point (along with the extra parts). Looks fantastic, and I'm glad to see the Leo gets all the articulation he's been denied for so long. I've always loved the grunts more than the main suits, but Gundam Wing grunts have gotten the shaft for far too long. It's great to see them not only get a spotlight, but to have them come out in an age where they can get great attention!
