Being tracking this SDX Knight Gundam for quite some time, and finally the large images for it are available. The SDX Knight Gundam is set to release in this December, in line with (Super-Deformed) SD Gundam 20th anniversary. A very impressive SD kit, don’t you agree? Just look at its shiny silvery armor. The only stumbling for getting this kit is it’s hefty price tag, want to make a guess? 
It’s still remains a mystery to me as to how they do the changing of eyes for the Knight Gundam 
wide variety of swappable parts & equipments for this kit. 7 different interchangeable hands! 
Ready to find out the answer? read in then: It’s recommended retail price is a whopping 4,935Yen ( around 50 US Dollar ) and it’s sales price is 3,844Yen (40 US Dollars after 22% discount). The price of this SD kit is actually in the range of a Master Grade (MG) kit. I’m finding it rather hard to convince myself to splurge that kind of money on this kit at the moment despite liking it very much. *edit: thanks to Jack, we now know the SDX Knight Gundam comes pre-built and painted as a completed, finished model, rather than a kit as previously thought. How about you guys, are you willing to spend this amount of money on this SDX Knight Gundam Kit, come this December?
appreciated!!

@GPA,
yea. so I guessed it has pretty much justified its pricing with all these (painting,diecast parts,etc).

It also has Diecast parts, which probably raises the price as well.

@gordon,
yup the extra legs are for the horsemen/centaur mode. iron2000, thanks for helping answering that
@iron2000,
I see. thanks for sharing. I wonder if our local hobby stores will take orders for it. gotta drop by after work and check.
Also, sorry about your latest comments which got withhold for being suspicious. I unblock them and deleted the duplicates. The hyperlink was probably the one that trigger the red flag.
Check out the link and found out there’s plan to release more of them. it’s gonna be real expensive to get them all.

Found a picture of the Musharetsuden Zero Knight Gundam resin kit:

So this design originated in the past Musharetsuden Zero section that ran in Hobby Japan, then became a resin kit and now a figure.
@ gordon
Yup, its for the horse mode.

looks good. but what are the extra legs for? transform into a horse?

@iron2000,i envy u. i heard this one is taken from a classic anime,if i m not to be mistaken. as a fan,i’ll definitely buy it. and thanks to jack telling us that it was more than a simple model kit.i m so full of joy!

I ordered it from a forum member at Plamo.
I’ll see for the second figure, to get it or not.

@yinle,
thought so too. still in the midst of convincing myself to get this.
@iron2000,
wow, that’s pretty bold of you. where did you make your order at? online or at our local hobby stores?
yeah, think it was mentioned in Newtype that there’s a second figure, Fullarmor Knight Gundam.
Nov 1st, 2008
Already made an order for this figure.
Actually this design is similar to the Musharetsuden Zero version which has a resin kit I think.
Thought its the only one but found out theres a second figure in the series, the Fullarmor Knight Gundam - which is Knight Gundam in his second set of armor.
Probably up next for the 3rd is Vessal Knight Gundam?
Or in the near future a Musha Gundam?
Nov 1st, 2008
This is impressive.I think it’s kinda expensive though.
Nov 1st, 2008
@ Jack,
thanks for the clarification. so I guess a kit version of this Knight Gundam won’t be available right?
Nov 1st, 2008
don’t worry the money will be well spent, because this isn’t going to be exactly a “kit” its a finished product and already painted given the high price =)
