I think I need an X-Box now after seeing that trailer >_>

@RadishTM: I had figured as much tbh. It just looks odd playing fighting games on iOS. Same goes for Street Fighter which uses similar controls. I wanted to buy it before watching a YouTube review of it. After watching the review I had changed my mind, lol. I much rather have a controller attached underneath the iPhone, like those Android devices with keyboards, if I'd want to play a fighting game on iOS.

Not sure what other type of Gundam game they could make for iOS :/

@Razorwing: I've read that they do plan on making an HG version off of it. I also saw a picture of it with the text "Future lineup" underneath. Found said image:

Though I really dislike HG, LOL. I've got a HG 1/100 Gundam Sandrock Gunpla and I really dislike it as a Gunpla. Though it was a gift so I shouldn't and can't complain.

Would be an awesome MG addiction. An MG version of Gadessa would be more then welcome too, lol. I'd love to have that one as a MG 1/100.

Well can't that picture resemble this?

The 1/144 scale. :(

^Yeah, I though I had also seen the 1/100 version not too long ago which is why I posted the image.

I probably won't get it though. I really want an MG version of it. lol. Btw GET a 360 so we can do some Gundam battles online!

Fair enough :p Though I'd rather see some more info/news along with the images as an image doesn't really tell us much.

Doesn't it tell us a date or something on there? I'm not too sure on the Japanese language.

anywhooo..

Yeah, it does. But some people, like me, would want to have some more info when there's an image telling us a few things. Just like the image you've posted just now. There's no info whatsoever about what it is, when it's being released and whatnot. It's just not really contributing if you ask me.

Sure it's fun to post images about new stuff, but doing so doesn't add anything to this thread. Right now, we come here and see images and we then have to search for the news ourselves.

In some ways it does add dude. I don't know if you knew there was that model out but I sure didn't. From what I know. Posting only images also tells what is coming up too. That there is valuable information. You might not think it's information, but that's all we've got. Release dates usually come later.

I know all that and I never said it's not information. But the way it is now we all have to search for the info. "That there is valuable information." already tells that you should post that info, but oh well. I don't mean to come off as a grumpy idiot or whatever but the images that are posted here are never being followed up with news. Never mind though, as this is going no where.

We still don't know what the Heavy Arms image tells us. Is it going to be a MG 1/100? Is it going to be a HG 1/100 or is it just going to be a FIX Figuration type model?

no clue. But by the looks of it, it looks MG. Just check out the long legs. lol.

One could make HG look like that if they'd add paint and whatnot to the parts. You still don't get my point, do you? Because you're guessing what the news is as well.

If you had found that image you could've done a quick Google by searching for "Endless Waltz Heavy Arms 1/100 MG" and you could've know exactly what news belongs with that image:

MG 1/100: Gundam Heavyarms, Sandrock, Shenlong EW series, Large Images

Again, not trying to be a d*ck here but putting some effort in searching for more info then just images would make this thread a lot more enjoyable for other Gunpla builders to return to.

Besides all that rambling.. is it me, or does that MG version of Sandrock still look like it's a HG model? Comparing it with my own HG version and the image just looks like a painted HG :/

Might also be the way that Gundams from Gundam Wing look as Shenlong doesn't look MG at all either. The legs still look like it's one big piece.

I'm not sure. I never owned Sandrock. However, posability should be much better especially if it's an MG. We probably get other goodies too. I"m also going to pick up Heavy Arms when it comes out. I hope they have missles flying out of chest included. :laugh:

^Lol, they probably won't. Also, you won't need to have a HG Sandrock in order to see that that MG version looks like an HG :p I must admit that it looks loads better then the HG version. Since I've got the HG version, I'll be getting the MG version for sure.

I guess is different, you know. You literally HAVE the model right infront of you. lol.

I guess it's all due to the low-res image tbh. They don't show enough details. Looking at the mold image one can spot the differences.

Now I'm hoping they'll be doing the same to the rest of the Gundam 00 Gundam's as well. At least from the first season's Gundams. I'd love to have all of those in 1/100 MG and perhaps the movie versions. But I guess that'll be a sweet dream forever :p

You should get all 3 Exias. lol.

LOL, I only get 1 version of a Gundam. Getting more of 1 Gundam would ruin my collection. I'd rather have 1 Exia and 1 version of the others.

but then you can have Normal Exia, Trans-AM Exia, and Exia Repair. :laugh: Although, IMO Exia Repair looks the most badass out of the 3.

I'd rather have all the normal versions of the Gunpla for consistency sake :p Also, Trans-AM Gunpla are a joke if you ask. It doesn't make sense to me as they don't look like a Gunpla in Trans-AM mode at all :/

    • Apple would rather delay Siri AI than open iOS to rival assistants in the EU

      By pradeepviswav · Posted

      Apple would rather delay Siri AI than open iOS to rival assistants in the EU by Pradeep Viswanathan At WWDC 2026, Apple today announced a revamped Siri AI experience for iOS and iPadOS users. However, this new Siri AI experience will not be available on iPhones and iPads in the European Union when iOS 27 and iPadOS 27 launch later this year. In a detailed press release, Apple blamed the Siri delay on the EU’s Digital Markets Act, highlighting that EU regulators did not accept its proposed solutions for bringing Siri AI to the region. Consequently, there is currently no timeline for Siri AI’s availability on iOS and iPadOS in the EU. Here is what EU users will be missing due to this delay: Siri AI, Apple’s next-generation assistant powered by Apple Intelligence A new dedicated Siri app for revisiting conversations Expanded Visual Intelligence features Integrated AI-assisted writing tools Siri mode in Camera on iOS Other system-level AI features Since the new Siri experience on watchOS 27 is dependent on an iOS 27 device, EU users will also miss out on Siri AI on watchOS 27. The most frustrating part is that even developers based in the EU will not be able to test or use the new Siri AI features for their apps on iOS 27, iPadOS 27, and watchOS 27. In its press release, Apple mentioned that making Siri AI available in the EU would require the company to give other AI assistants (like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini) broad access to private user data and the ability to control installed apps. Essentially, the EU wants competing AI systems to be able to read and send messages, make purchases, access files, and perform actions across apps. To address these concerns, Apple proposed an intermediary system called Trusted System Agent. This system would have allowed other virtual assistants to access the same features as Siri AI in a safer way. However, the European Commission rejected Apple's proposals, and it is currently unclear why. The good news is that Apple stated it will continue working with EU regulators to bring Siri AI to the region. For now, however, iPhone and iPad users in the EU will have to wait. If platform gatekeepers such as Apple and Google reserve deep operating system capabilities only for their own AI assistants, rival services such as ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and others will be at a major disadvantage. Modern AI assistants are no longer simple chatbots. They require access to core OS-level capabilities such as reading on-screen context, interacting with installed apps, sending messages, creating calendar events, managing files, and completing user-approved actions across the device. If only Siri on iOS or Gemini on Android can access these capabilities, competing AI services will struggle to offer the same level of convenience, even if their underlying models are better. This is exactly what the European Union's DMA is trying to address. Apple and Google should be allowed to protect user privacy and security, but they should not be permitted to use those concerns as a blanket excuse to block rival AI assistants from getting fair access to core platform features. A secure permission-based framework could allow users to choose their preferred AI assistant without giving any company unrestricted access to personal data.

    • Signal accuses UK government of using child safety as cover for mass surveillance

      By freedonX · Posted

      When I was a teen, I actually believed that the government used to be always be the bad guy. However as an adult, someone who has actually seen the Law work (though not perfect). I now think everyone cries a river. In this specific case, the so called freedom has consequences to society. Anyone who has seen how child are indeed affected, and I don't mean only extreme things like getting drugs or hate crimen , but no one can deny society as a whole has gone down a rabbit hole due to exesive use of internet. Before anyone calls out that it's the parents responsibility. Yes that's true, but the reality your family/kids might be good people. There are 99% out there who are not and have been brain dead by many things on the internet.
