Arnval and Strarf Mk 2

[v2gundam]

Actually I'm talking about the String of Kanji right above the "Reservations Start Soon!" and under "Arnval Mk2 and Strarf Mk2 figures included".

Anyway, from the sounds of things, it'll be as Hyre just said. Dual Shinki bundle with the Game which'll be a Konami Style exclusive. Funs.

Those lines are effectively just repeat the titles again. no extra information can be seen.

this is a thread of hope to us all I guess? (Scenario 1: bundled as an exclusive, THEN release as normal retail - GOOD ENDING)
....on the other hand this might doom us all.... (Scenario 2: Bundled as exclusive... THEN nothing - BAD ENDING- NO MORE CONTINUE)

Figures bundle with game? Hope my prediction aren't correct

Please please please make it an exclusive bundle. PLEASE let the figures be sold separately.

I'm so sick of every new Shinki being an exclusive.

That... boggles me.

So, they went to the time and expense to create two Full armor shinkis, both COMPLETELY NEW MOLDS, completely new designs, went through all the trouble of creating the tooling, and they're only going to produce enough to be bundled with a handful of PSP games? Also since you get BOTH with the bundled game, the expense is going to be prohibitive for the bundle, killing its effectiveness as an incentive for anything but hardcore fans.

That... just doesn't make good sense at all. Even Fubuki, arguably supposed to be the most limited Shinki ever, has had a repaint and a re-issue, and her accessory count is something closer to an EX set than a full armor.

Either something is off about that, or this is the most EXPENSIVE fanwank I've ever seen. The only think even CLOSE would be Saber Lily and Saber Extra, and those are figures (Figma in general that is) that retail for HALF of a Shinki, and have a fraction of the accessory count.

Funnels!

at least its a different armor configuration compared to the "vic viper" one shown in the in-game screenshots.... still bugs me that konami used Arnval for this vic-viper-ish new armor instead of a new shinki... not that i dislike the armor (i actually love it btw). but i have prefered a re-designed version of her classic Angel armor (with wings) than this....

It wouldnt be the first time they bundled an exclusive with a game. They did the same with Nagi. But she was just a new head and chest, the rest of it was just Varona's armor. Making the Mk2's a game exclusive would just be stupid, wouldnt it? Konami...please tell me you arent being stupid. I'm hoping this is just an advanced 'special features' release bundle and that a general release will come later.

Mmmm. Funnels. You could see them in previous bits, but it's nice they're being called out here. (Where you find that one, Noodles?)

Strarf's got a chaingun? STRARF'S GOT A CHAINGUN! BFG'S FOR EVERYONE!

I appear to have found where Noodles got the image.

Ooooh. Strarfurai.
