PG 00 Gundam's exploded arm image

Aha! Under my close scrutiny... there looks to be the sleeves and elbows consist of a series of washers and a spring sandwich, clamped firmly together in between a long screw and a hexagonal nut. This is THE MOST AWESOME JOINT CONSTRUCTION I HAVE EVER SEEN IN ANY PGs ARM!!!
This bodes well for the rest of the kit's mechanical design. (though I'd have dearly loved the 2 condenser windows to have had light up gimmicks... you can't have everything.)

  2. Anyone know whether the PG will come in light blue with gray internals, or dark blue/black instead? I think it looks amazing in bandai's cg pics and hope the real one looks exactly like that

  3. Wow! That looks like the most complex "looking" arm joint I've seen on a gundam kit. Can't wait to see what it really can do :)
