Hello and welcome to Channel 2S, I'm your host Second Soundwave.  I've been pretty sick for the last few days, and I'm still not well enough to record any audio, but I still wanted to get this out to you guys.  So in lieu of the usual narration you're getting a transcript of what I was planning on saying down here in the description box.  Bear with me.
   OK, so first there's the new RE.  GundamGuy said it was going to be the Bawoo back in May, but we've now finally got an official confirmation of that along with some stock photos of the kit itself.  it's looking really nice, almost on par with a MG.  I've always been a Bawoo fan, so it's neat to see it getting a 1/100 kit at long last.  It'll be a November release, and it looks like it'll be at the same 3500 yen price-point as basically every non-Nightingale RE kit so far. 
   Next up we have the usual dump of P-Bandai announcements.  There's another Zaku II coming out (Robert Gilliam's the pilot, apparently... whoever the hell that is), and it's just a straight pallet-swap of Ridden's Zaku, so there isn't really anything to say about it.  It's shipping from the P-Bandai Web Shop in September, but you're honestly better off spending that 4860 yen on Ridden's Zaku and some blue paint.  It pretty much just comes down to whether or not the time and effort you'd need to put into painting it is worth the premium price tag or not.
   Then there's the HGUC Zeta Plus C1, which is not really surprising to see under the P-Bandai banner.  It's just the UC ver. with blue bits, a new gun, wing missiles, and a new crotch.  We got the A1 Test Colors as a Gunpla Expo exclusive a couple years back, so it's nice to see the set finally completed at least.  It's only 2600 yen, so it's not too expensive before middleman fees at least.  Personally, I'm just going to stick with the UC ver.
   Last in the P-Bandai batch is the HGBF Super Fumina Titans Maid ver. With new parts to convert her into a maid, catgirl, or bunnygirl (your choice), she pretty much fills all of Japan's favorite fetishes in one fell swoop.  Yay?  Release date and price TBD.
  It's been a little while since Hobby Japan released a promotional pack-in kit for Gundam, so they're doing one for Build Fighters.  It's a set of weapons that look like they belong on the Transient Glacier, but are in fact just another upgrade for the Wing Zero Honoo.  The weapon set will come packed with the January 2017 issue of Hobby Japan.
  Speaking of Transient Glacier, we have some clearer images of it now.   It's got a lot of new stuff sticking out everywhere, which is surprising since it's not that much more expensive than the regular Transient (Transient was 1900 yen, Glacier is 2100).  It definitely makes the kit a lot more visually striking.
   And then lastly we have magazine scans of some of the HGs we saw at the Expo.  They look pretty much like they did there, except for Barbatos Lupus who looks a bit more toylike than he did initially. 
   That's all for tonight guys, leave a LIKE if you enjoyed this (hopefully I won't need to use this cumbersome method of production for any more videos after this one), SUBSCRIBE if you're new here and want to see more gunpla news and reviews, and feel free to discuss this pretty interesting new batch of announcements down in the comments below.  I'm Second Soundwave, and I'll see you next time!
