thats actually a good theory, SEED FM ran its course and will probably just get limited variants at this point, so Wing getting some makes sense

But my second attempt is still around and no issues whatsoever as I fixed the one issue I had with it by carefully using super glue on the hip/thigh joints to keep them from breaking apart after moving them a bit too much Edit: the Wing Zero has always been one of my favorite overall designs from Gundam.

The really odd thing is that this includes the Heero pilot figure...the EW/GoL timeline never had him piloting the Proto-Zero. Quatre, Duo, and Trant Clark were the ones piloting it. Zechs stalemated it with the Tallgeese Flugel, and then took the wreckage of the two suits and rebuilt it into the Wing Zero (Custom), before trading that with Heero for the Epyon.
@justinl87915 ай бұрын
He DID pilot it, for a VERY SHORT while. Driven berserk by the Zero System, went on a rampage with beam sabers in the OZ base, trashing Virgos & killing OZ soldiers before being forcibly stopped by Quatre in the broken Mercurius & both of them managed to escape to Earth. Just like in the original anime.

I don't see any point in them making an actual mg wing zero tv version as I see this kit as exactly that. If they had marketed this as wing zero and not proto zero from the manga, nobody would bat an eye. I'd just treat this kit as the tv version of the wing zero. If you put this kit side-by-side with the 1/100 wing zero, you would see that this kit is just a modern revision of the original tv wing that is still faithful to the original without changing too much.

Proto Zero is a lousy replacement for the TV zero. It can't do a lot of the things the TV can do (opening chest vents, flip out machine guns, transforming legs, wing articulation) and comes off looking inferior. Should they ever make a MG of the TV version, the Metal Robot Spirits is what should be referenced.

Ah yes, the superior version of the Wing Zero, in my honest opinion. Frankly, the more realistic wings of the Katoki design never really made sense for me, on the Wing Zero Custom.

The differences you said, the shield, the proportions (a bit lankier), the way the cannons open up (TV's flip around, versus a hatch here) extra white on the shoulders, buster rifles have more beveling and details to it and a darker shade of gray, the wings are sharper with intake details for the yellow, and i believe it doesnt have the opening chest vents the TV version had but i might be wrong on that one.

Only the Wing Gundam (tv version) got a MG standard release. The (tv version) of the Wing Zero did not get a MG release. They did release a standard release for the Wing Zero (EW OVA version) as well. The only other MG Gundam Wing kits that come close to having a MG (tv version) would be the standard release of the MG Tallgeese EW version, P-Bandai Tallgeese II, or the standard release of the MG Gundam Epyon (but not really because they were all Katoki redesigns as well), but the only thing that comes close to it in that scale would be the old HG 1/100 Wing Zero. Still to this day I haven’t seen a (tv version) of the Gundam Heavyarms or Gundam Sandrock in 1/100 scale except from Third Party versions. I would love to get the whole Gundam Wing crew in MG form for their TV Versions of their respective mobile suits.

Best thing I've found is just using a razor blade to shave off any 'extra' before you apply it. Once you've put a topcoat on it can look quite good. If your blade is nice and sharp it's a pretty painless process.
