Yay! They’ve announced a second season for IBO! Really liking this show, though I could stand to see a few more mech battles. Still, they are doing a good job of developing the politics and the complexity of the story.
Just watched the latest episode. It has me so excited! Some really cool things happening, and there is a new opening where we see some new mobile suits, even ones we haven’t seen teased anywhere. Very excited!
Yeah, will definitely be doing some sanding, but I’m wanting to do some paint/weathering too. Maybe make it look a but battle scarred, as this mech seemed to get pretty well used and abused on the show.
I definitely get what you mean, but I’ve grown to appreciate them. When standing straight up, the model’s legs are really well protected when it comes to armour coverage, while, when it bends, the different points of articulation make it look really cool, I think. So they make sense, in a military sense … I suppose
Snapped together my KG-6 Sleipnir kit! Was a lot of fun to do something other than Gundam. Ends up being about as tall as an average MG kit, and while there is great molded…

This Sleipnir is the training model designed for use by school students and was the personal unit of Aldnoah.Zero protagonist Inaho Kaizuka as it is more maneuverable than the KG-7 Areion the rest of his squad uses. Towards the end of the series he upgrades it to the space type (released Feb. 2016) which bulks the unit up considerably with…[Read more]
thanks for posting! been wondering about this kit since i saw the pre-order for it go up earlier in the year; couldn’t make up my mind whether i wanted to grab one or not. after seeing this post, i don’t think i’ll be disappointed if i go ahead and order one now. thanks again!

Finished putting together 1/100 Barbatos! I really liked it. Apart from the stickers, that is. Would love to get some markers for it similar to MG kits though. If anyone hears about any, let me know!
Thanks:) Personally, I really like the Barbatos’ inner frame. Seems like there was a real logic behind it, while other inner frames, while more complicated, just seem like scaled down armour.
So I finally got it in! The 1/100 Barbatos kit! Was so excited to get my first shipment from HLJ and to find out what this not-Mastergrade model was, so I built the frame:) Though it may not be quite as complicated as Mastergrades, it’s super interesting! One of my favourite inner frames so far.
