A Closer Look At The Upcoming 1/72 Oracle
Here are some pictures of the Armored Core: Last Raven version of Evangel's Oracle, soon to be released by the end of December this year. Collectors should be happy to know that this kit will contain a new set of legs (DINGO2) and a core (C89E) never seen in any AC kit before it in addition to the GERYON2 back-mount.
Check out a small gallery of the upcoming Oracle model kit after the jump:
Upcoming Armored Core Merchandise From Kotobukiya
The Last Raven incarnation of Oracle seems to be a confirmed kit, and a fully painted sample exists as seen above which might make its debut sometime this year.
Another upcoming Armored Core collectible series simply called "Fugitto Mechanicals" is expected to get a 2011 release, whether this compliments the current Variable Infinity series of model kits or a totally new line of models we don't know as of the moment. You can view some promotional materials after the jump:
GA Sunshine AC Model Kit
Dare I say that I'm screaming like a fangirl along Otome Road? This scanned picture from the latest issue of Hobby Japan (or Dengeki Hobby Magazine, we really couldn't tell) shows what seems to be a planned model kit from Kotobukiya's Variable Infinity line of Armored Core models. This next attraction comes in the form of the GA SUNSHINE, one of the default corporate sponsored ACs available to the player in Armored Core 4 and Armored Core: For Answer. The kit appears to feature two bazookas and two missile packs, though this may change as time goes by. No plans for a release date as of the moment, but it is definitely something to look out for if you want an AC on the heavy side.
Thanks J.E. for making us go Kyaaa~.

Silent Line Intro AC Crest Assault Type Model Kit
Coming soon to a hobby store near you. Silent Line's intro AC given the name Crest Assault Type (Known as Fracture in Last Raven's VR arena) will be getting a plamo form as part of Kotobukiya's Armored Core Variable Infinity series of model kits. The release date for this elegant model is expected to be on August 10 (undecided) this year. Actual build model after the jump:
Now These Are Armored Cores!
Honorable mention
FG Site recently sponsored an Armored Core model making competition, and the results are nothing less than what we would feature in our Now That's An Armored Core series. It comes to no surprise that the top placer was 507, the same person who built the very awesome Black Rain and Cronus Vestal. Hit the jump for the top placers as well as another honorable mention.
Wonder Festival 2010: New Kotobukiya AC Kits
Kit-maker Kotobukiya exhibited several new (and a few recycled) Armored Core model kits for the recent (Winter) Wonder Festival in Tokyo, Japan. Among the new kits are the SD White Glint (pictured above) and the Mirage C02-Uranus Marvelous.

Now That’s an Armored Core: Aaliyah Custom
Found over at Armored Core-Wiki. Looks like Nineball Seraph isn't the only awesome bird in the sky. This heavily modded custom Aaliyah made by "Riyu Mu" (ゆむ) looks like it can dominate the heavens and rule over the throne held by Armored Core's big bad guy. Safe to say, it'd be interesting what a four way battle will look like between this guy, Nineball Seraph, Crest Black Rain, and the Cronus Vestal. More pictures after the jump:
Oh you sexy LAHIRE!
The LAHIRE model kit will be available in local hobby stores (hopefully) by April or May 2010. The kit features Otsdarva's AC Stasis, the No.1 Collard ranker featured in Armored Core: for Answer along with all the weapons and trimmings. The kit includes the 0700 assault rifle, 0507 heavy laser rifle, PM missiles, and a radar pack along with some stabilizers. Its unusual joints and small limbs make it an unusual design in a series filled with beefy giant robots, but otherwise it's mech sexy as any other AC. Go grab one if you want your AC on a diet.
EDIT: Thanks cabs for the correction.
You’ve Got A Robot Doggie In My Noblesse Oblige
It seems that there is a hidden part discovered in Kotobukiya's 1/72 scale Noblesse Oblige model kit from Armored Core 4. Can you tell from which part of the model kit this cute robot dog comes from? The answer after the jump.
1/72 Tellus Gunmetal Version By Kotobukiya Released
The limited edition gunmetal version of Kotobukiya's Tellus model kit from Armored Core 4 has finally been released and is (hopefully) available in your local hobby center. The gunmetal version considerably has different weapons compared to the original, most noticeable is the absence of the backmount folding laser cannon replaced by a radar part. Go grab one if you feel like having your Tellus kit with different colors.
Thanks to Isburai for the heads-up.
