Well there's footage of what the western release one will look like:

skip to 1:30. All I can say is... ew.

I think I like it actually. It's a matter of taste after all.

It looks like it could glow in the dark lol

Why is it green on the video? o.O Also the japanese element was ice. It also got power phial. Is it now dragon?! That is just lame...

Judging by the video it is still ice lol

I dunno, I like it....

But these quests are out?????

OP the gold colored axe in Japan was Ice, and the axe is still ice.

IMO it looks good.

Yeah, by dragon I meant that the weapon itself looked like a dragon, not the element. :P

I agree it's cool, but the japan one was so badass. Golden Dragon Axe. And we only get a Jade Dragon Axe.

Am I the only one here who was quite amused when they referred to Shepard as "The Scrub-Lord"?

The "jade" colour is a reference to Jade Barroth so ice element is more logic. But Golden axe looks way better imho. Not to mention suits perfectly damascius armour...

Are we talking about this?

Yes, this is it. Green/emerald one is not that bad, but gold one looks waaay better imho.

i saw the gold switchaxe in the picture and came oceans but then saw in game footage and im like...bleh..looks crap in green.

The question is how to obtain it?

I'm not so sure the Slash Fox is that much better looking:



than the Jade Dragon Whatever:




In fact... few of the Japan designs really seem any better than the Western ones IMO... Realy just the fact that they are modled after actual stuff but other than that.. eh..

here's probably the best current link:

Just give me the demons advocate and heavy rain and pirate J armor. Everything else IDGAF about besides that sexy gunlance from slaying ivory lagi.

Sigh... I don't care so much about the looks as in us getting all the content the japanese did even if reskins. Unite had some content locked out from it only available if you traded with a japanese version of the game or had CFW.

^ We are getting ALLLLLLLL the content.. Nothing locked out.. That's the good news.

Odd news (not bad) it's all in a different order and on different event quests so we have no clue when or how it's coming to us. and not even those at Capcom US know what the reskins are.

Oh right you get that dragon switchaxe if you went to monster hunter community college on sunday

If that's the logic behind the US reskin,
wouldn't it have just been better to give us a Jade Barroth S.Axe or some other color for this...
I mean I don't really care what it looks like but why alter an event bonus to something pretty close to another weapon lineup.
