My thought of Bandai's new remastered HG

Soo we all know that Bandai has some "Remastering" program for HG lines. They are "upgrading" some NG models into HG class, with advanced molding tech. This renew products are named by their respective universes, for example HGAC (High Grade After Colony) Wing Gundam or HGAW (High Grade After War) Gundam X. Okay, I think this is a very cool project, considering many old models did not get HG treatment, while they deserved it. Having old models with new technology will be very nice, if we're looking how HG tech are advancing nowadays. My HGAC Wing Gundam is a proof of that.
But this project also gives me thought that Bandai (and everyone who has relation with Gundam world) are starting to lose their creativity. I mean, if we really take a look at Gundam world lately, there is nothing really new (aside the technology of animation and gunpla). Everything is getting retrospective, even the newest gundam series (Gundam Built Fighter) is nothing than reusing old models and "renew" those. A bit dissapointing. I think new HG project is an example of Gundam world's retrospective thinking.
So, what's the point? Okay, new HG project is a good intermezzo of old days. I will definately enjoy it. But I hope Gundam world will be coming with brand new ideas, because IT believe Gundam world can go to the infinity and beyond!! ;)
