I'm a little late to the discussion but have you also considered the High Complete Model Progressive (more commonly known as HCM Pro) line?

They're smaller than the EMSIA line but tend to be a bit sharper looking thanks to the use of ABS plastic instead of PVC. If you're considering to get any Gundam mobile suit that features wings, you may not like the PVC plastic that makes them look thick and sometimes warped.

Also whereas EMSIA is not made to any exact scale size, HCM Pros are made at 1/200 scale. 1/200 scale seems to be catching on lately so if you're planning on expanding beyond Gundam, maybe this is up you alley.

Ofcourse the main negative of HCM Pros is that they are very small. My Gundam MK.II for example is about 4-inches tall head to toe.

Don't get me wrong, EMSIAs are fantastic. If you're really into posing your Gundams, you can't go wrong with EMSIAs I just want to make sure you've considered the HCM Pro line as well. If you have any questions, I can help.

Btw, the Robot Spirit/Damashii line is the successor to the EMSIA/MSIA line. From what I know, the main change will be the materials used to make the robots. Ie. there will be less use of PVC plastic - which hasn't been too popular with fans.
