@shino: thanks, but im nothing compared to you, im more of a mass-produced msia collector (aka enemy mobile suits) than gundams..heck i've just returned to collecting msias after a 3 year stop (since i focused on my ragnarok account..hehehe XD)
anyways..
reviews are to follow..probably by next week since we're still quite busy moving to our new house..hehehehe..

Hey silent bro... what do you mean by "im nothing compared to you?" I think we have the same amount of msia except that we prefer different gundams/ms to collect. And you even stopped for 3 years. Give 1 more year, I think you'll have much more msias than I have bcause all I got are gundams, yours are more diverse. ...naalala ko tuloy ung ragna... hehe. I used to play that too when it's still new but after they implemented the prepaid cards (level-up?), I stopd after a month. Its eating all my money ksi.

MSiA MS-07B-3 Gouf Custom (Re-packaged Version)
Number of Parts: 1 Gouf Custom Figure + 8 Parts + Collector's Card Colors: sky blue, red, gray, white, yellow, yellow-orange, black, blue green Gimmicks: Gatling Shield, Highly Poseable
The infamous Gouf Custom from the OVA Gundam: 08th MS Team, piloted by Norris Packard, this single mobile suit was the greatest obstacle the 08th MS Team had to face. Now lets see how great it is in MSiA form.
Head: The head is finely sculpted. It is mostly painted in sky blue with the main monoeye camera painted in blood red (perfect for an infamous machine!) with the "monoeye rails" painted in black. It captures the infamous face the Gouf has on the animation, perfect IMO.
Torso: The torso is perfectly sculpted with no physical defects at all. It is mostly painted in blue green with a zeon logo in the center portion of the front torso. The "tubes" are painted in sky blue. The backpack is painted in gray, with the thrusters insides painted in red and black.
Arms-Shoulders: The arms are painted in skyblue and it is attached to the torso via a ball joint. This msia features the infamous curved spikes on its armors (even though they rarely use it in combat), the shoulder spike armor is painted in skyblue with some parts painted with a white line. The arms are single jointed like the version 1 msias and on its right arm is a removable plastic part in which the heat wire is attached, the left arm features a rectangular hole where the 3-barrel 35-mm machine gun is mounted. The hands are painted in black and sky blue. It is attached to the arm via a peg in hole.
Legs: The legs are mostly painted in sky blue with the knee armor parts painted in black with a panel line of red. Its legs are single jointed like the old version 1 msias. The feet are painted in skyblue with its bottom part painted in black. The feet are attached via a ball joint to the legs and the legs are attached to the torso also via a ball joint.
Weapons and Accessories:
3 barrel 35-mm machine gun: it is mostly painted in gray with the "camera" painted in red. it is attached to the left arm via a rectangular peg in hole. it also has a circular hole in it in which the gatling shield is attached to.
Gatling Shield: the centerpiece of 'em all! wow! the main reason why i loved this machine! the gatling shield mounts a 75-mm gatling gun which is drum and belt fed. the shield is mostly painted in skyblue with some of its parts painted in gray. on its center is a zeon logo (SIEG ZEON!). the gatling gun is mostly painted in gray. it features a removable barrel and it is attached to the 3 barrel 35mm machine gun via a peg in hole and it also features a grip for the figure to hold on to. and i almost forgot it also has a storage rack for the heat saber type D III.
Heat Saber Type D III: i never got it why the heck it is called a heat saber when it doesnt actually have the yellow "turned-on" feature of the heat hawks..well what the heck, if it could chop up Luna-Titanium armor why not?..a chunk of plastic painted in gray with its handle painted in blue green. it can be stored on the gatling shield, other than that, no more. oh yeah! fit snugly on the hand..hehehe..
Heat Wires: this figure has two kinds of heat wires, one with grappling "claws" while the other doesnt have the "claws" deployed. it is attached to the right arm by removing the rectangular plastic first, as usual it is via a peg in hole.
Shield: i dont know why bandai added another shield when it cannot be attached to the 3-barrel 35-mm machine gun! nothing too special about this. mostly painted in sky blue and blue green with some of its parts painted in gray. it is attached to the arm via a rectangular peg. (YOU CANT MOUNT IT ON THE GUN! DANG!)
Final Rating: ;D ;D ;D ;D
It is a near perfect msia IMO, but the one thing that irritates me is the other shield. I just don't know what kind of drink the people in bandai drinked before they designed this msia? didnt they know that the other shield is just a waste of plastic?!...dang!...

MSiA ZGMF-2000 Gouf Ignited
Number of Parts: 1 Gouf Ignited Figure + 12 parts + Collector's Card Colors: blue, light blue, black, white, gray, dark gray, yellow orange, yellow, pink Gimmicks: Highly Poseable, Wings retract, 1x Slayer Whip Heat Rod, 2x Tempest beam sword
The ace-only mobile suit developed by ZAFT after the introduction of the ZAKU Warrior and Phantom. One unit was stolen by Athrun Zala (with Meyrin Hawke as an accomplice) in Phase 36 but was unfortunately shot down by Shinn Asuka's Destiny Gundam. Now let's see if it does good in MSiA form.
Head: It is perfectly sculpted! It is mostly painted in light blue with the infamous mono-eye painted in pink. Quite an interesting design (even though it was a rip-off).
Torso: Now this is just long! First it is mostly painted in blue. Its skirt "tubes" are painted in light blue. Its is painted perfectly with no excess paints or such in the figure. On its back, it features a backpack with wings. The backpack is painted mostly in gray with the thrusters painted in yellow orange. It also has the peg attachment where the extra thrusters are attached to. The wings are painted in white, and black, the thrusters however are painted in yellow orange. The wings are retractable and features a 90-degrees of vertical movement. The only problem i see here about the design is that sometimes wht shoulder spike armors get in the way. Quite an interesting design though and im just loving it. Paparappappap...
Arms: Its mostly painted in light blue with the Draupnir 4-barrel beam gun painted in blue and its barrel painted in gray.It is attached to the torso via a movable ball joint. On its inner arms are 2 cylindrical plastic pegs in which one is removed to attach the Slayer Whip heat rod. The spiked shoulder armor sometimes get in the way when you deploy its wings, but what the heck?! It is double jointed and its hands are attached via a ball joint.
Legs: Painted perfectly! Mostly in light blue and its knee armor painted in black. The thrusters are painted in yellow orange and it is attached to the torso via a ball joint. The feet are also attached to the legs via a ball joint and its is painted in light blue on its upper part and painted in black on its lower part.
Weapons and Accessories:
Hands: this figure comes with 5 hands, (1) Slayer Whip handler, (2) Open hands, (2) Beam Rifle hands?! what?! what?! what the heck's the beam rifle hands for?..well if you have the other ZAFT MSiAs, you could use its weapons.
Spike Shield: nothing special about it. mostly painted in blue and white. Oh wait yeah..it does have something special about it. it has a storage rack for the small tempest beam sword.
Tempest Beam Sword: it is painted in yellow, blue and gray, this figure comes with two kinds, the small one, which is only stored in the storage rack of the shield, and the big one which features a beam blade on both sides! The beam blades are attached via a hole on the top and lower part of the sword. It is molded in translucent pink. I just wish they gave us one which retracts similar to the animation. remember Heine? the red ace who only got 7-mins of screentime in the whole destiny series. THIS IS NO ZAKU BOY! NO ZAKU!!
Slayer-Whip Heat Rod: it only comes with one it is molded in translucent pink and is attached to the arms of the figure by removing the small cylindrical plastic on its inner arms first. It is supposed to be handled by a special hand, which comes with the figure.
Final Rating: ;D ;D ;D ;D
The only problems i see in this figure are the Spiked Shoulder Armors (which sometimes gets in the way of the wings) and the Slayer Whip Rod, why only one of them?! WHY?!!

Nice review of the Gouf Custom and Gouf Ignited. I share your sentiment: Why only one Slayer Whip, Bandai? Why? ;D
