Gundam Astrea Type F
Nope it’s not Setsuna stuck on Trans AM nor is it three time the speed of your regular Exia, it’s the the 1/100 Astrea Type F.
1/100 Overflag
1/100 Overflag looks cool but probably won’t be getting this one. ^^
Tieren
The Tieren, always thought this mobile suit looks fugly. definitely NOT on my must buy list. although that cannon and rifle looks pretty well done. ^^

Dengeki Gundam Exia

Dengeki Hobby 6 
looks like I’m not the only one who thinks Exia should be all white. Dengeki Hobby has featured some Gundams from the Gundam 00 series, although I have to say this Exia has been modded so well that it makes my Gundam Exia Axenic look like bird dropping.

Speaking of awesome Exia Mods check out the Trans-Am Exia by Keita. more images available on his site which includes Exia normal mode and Trans Am mode.

Want that Gundam Unicorn Gatling gun? well you don’t need to live in Japan to order one anymore, just get yourself a copy of a magazine available at Hobby Search. better hurry though since it’s already sold out on their site. only hope is to find some other shop that sells this.

Bandai Chogokin Macross Frontier VF-25

Macross F VF-25 by Bandai
News found via Danny Choo’s member news posted by Venth. Looks like Bandai has decided to make a 1/60 Chogokin of the Macross Frontier VF-25. People who are familiar with the Bandai Chogokin line would tell you that mechas from this line are sturdily built with metal parts. Probably much more sturdier than the original Macross Yamato versions since the Yamato ones are built using plastic parts.

However an ironic (pun not intended) fact is that Bandai’s Chogokin are relatively cheaper than the Yamato ones, in which case the metal Chogokin Macross F VF-25 might end up cheaper than the plastic Yamato versions. ^^; I guess we’ll just have to keep our fingers crossed then wait and see. ^^
