The silver pirate is back with a new costume.
HELLO! We are back!
In today’s 269th edition of our Let’s Talk Gunpla segment, we will be taking a look at one P-Bandai’s latest Gunpla release announcements. It is an announcement that, honestly? We do like what we see but, at the same time, aren’t that surprised to see it gets that P-Bandai treatment.
So, without further ado, let us get into it, shall we?
HG 1/144 XM-X0 Crossbone Gundam X-0 Full Cloth (HGUC)

The beautiful silver pirate with the badass Full Cloth upgrade
With almost all the Crossbones variants getting that P-Bandai HGUC treatment, it made sense that eventually, down the road, we will be getting the X-0 Full Cloth variant as a P-Bandai release.
But even with that said, it is not to say that we like the idea of seeing this version getting that P-Bandai treatment.
But enough of what we feel about seeing it release as a P-Bandai kit. Let’s talk about what we think of this P-Bandai HGUC kit, shall we?
I wonder if it would understand our feelings?
Because well, if we were, to be honest? It is basically just an HGUC Crossbone X-0 bundled with the recolored Full Cloth equipment, with nothing particularly new added into the kit.
But even with that said, it’s not like we are surprised to see that this is all that we are getting here. Why? Well, it’s not like the Full Cloth Crossbone X-0 had any new weapon designed for it.
Regardless, we admit that we are still quite taken by it, and we really don’t think it’s all that bad since it is a pretty awesome MS design. Plus, what’s more, since we haven’t had yet owned the HGUC X-0 (or any of the HGUC Crossbone kit in that matter), I think it makes sense for us to get this version instead of the regular version.
This is definitely the variant that we would go for as soon as it hits our shores.
Although admittedly, we do start to wonder how bad the nub marks will look as soon as we work on them? Well, we guess as soon as we get to work on it.
Anyways, that concludes our 269th edition of the Let’s Talk Gunpla segment. We are aware that this isn’t the only P-Bandai kit that got announced for this week, and not to mention we are as well aware of all the new Gunpla announcements made by the retail side.
We will get back to them, but slowly, since Kimi is still recovering.
Don’t worry, all of us will be back again this coming Thursday, with a new Let’s Talk Gunpla segment, picking up where we left off with the P-Bandai announcements. So, do look forward to that :D!
