Gunpla TV – Episode 259 – Christmas Special!

Ho Ho Ho, it’s the end of the year and Christmas special! Two kits are up for review this week! Todd has the odd looking Mechatro WeGo in 1/20th scale and Lindsay delivers the goods with the the first appearance of a Megami Device on Gunpla TV, the 1/1 SOL Roadrunner! But wait there’s more! Todd’s wonderful sprue Christmas tree makes a return as well as a new Christmas themed special build. What kind of craziness has the mad builder Todd cooked up in his lab this year? Watch to find out!

Kits in this episode:
1/20 Mechatro WeGo No.02 Orange
Mechatro WeGo Items
1/1 Megami Device – SOL Roadrunner

  7. Here’s hoping for that 2,000 yen prize.

    In case anyone is interested, the MechatroWeGo kits feature artwork by Keiichi Arawi, who wrote the gag manga Nichijou (My Ordinary Life). One of the limited edition 1/35 kits crossed over with Nichijou and included figures of those characters in place of the stock schoolboy/girl.

  22. “A Christmas Story” is definitely a great movie. I love how Todd took inspiration from that leg lamp that the father character in that movie was so obsessed over.

    Reply
  23. Lindsay, I feel I would be derelict in my duty if I did not point out that you had Roadrunner’s gun backwards, in the pictures in this post too. I should also point out that the armour for both parts of the Megami Device sets can be combined for a ‘Full Armour Mode.’

    My contribution aside, I think that 2,000 yen credit would make a nice birthday gift, yes?

  31. Leg lamp madness! I admire Lindsay’s language skills if she can enjoy that much anime straight off Japan TV. The SOL Roadrunner looks great too. Happy New Year!

  55. Love the leg… 😀

    Reply
  56. The red light for the leg lamp does place it in a sexy context. i would get a dimmer reddish led bulb and let both fire at the same time!

    Reply
  57. hmmm… i used to believe that lindsay was there to off set the geekyness of todd. now im think that maybe shes the geek and todds just a hyperactive fanboy.

  77. Love the lamp Todd! Also great to see more Kotobukiya kits on here. Just Got my Asra Ninja in and stoked to get her built!

    Let’s go RNG, that store credit will help in getting Bandai’s newest MG, deep striker! 😍

    Reply
  78. I can somehow see the Mechatro kit as a base for a Gundam Gusion(human suit version).Also ,is it just me, with a large emergence of anthropomorphic humanoid figures I can now somewhat see a Toy Story situation happen(or Framearms girl situation)?

    Reply
  79. Will next year be a Zaku shaped faux bb gun?

    Reply
  80. Oh god. Is that MG Deep Striker… O__O thats… very unexpected…

    Reply
  81. Megami devices look awesome; however, I was a bit disappointing with Megami Device WISM Soldier, since it turned out you can actually create just one figure from the parts (there was single torso if I remember correctly).

    I wonder if Lindsay can build something from Gigantic Arms to complement Frame Arms girls she have already build.

    Reply
  82. Display your leg lamp in your window with pride. Just do not let Lindsay “accidentally” break it beforehand.

    I am looking forward to the new MG F91 version 2.0 for 2018.

    Reply
  83. Awesome leg lamp, Todd! You’ll have to dig deep to top it this year.

    Happy New Year to everyone at HLJ!!

  84. Gun-Damn I bought my first gunpla from hobby link japan and if I had those 2000 gun-damncrediIts Id buy more Gun-dam

  85. Todd, you should go into gunpla furniture.

    • The Ez-8’s huge backpack can easily be turned into a shelf or a night table, lol

      Reply
  86. Mechatro Wegoes are unique and cute, I quite like them but I might wait before I pick a few up because there’s too much Gunpla I need.

    Megami Devices are also really nice, I want the newer Asura ones myself.

    Reply
    • Exactly the same situation here. I’ve been thinking of getting one of those for weathering, dioramas and all that cool stuff.
      But there are sooo many kits and paints to buy, and so many ideas to turn into reality…
