MGs arent difficult to build at all, follow the instructions like any other kit. I used to build HGs and RGs only because I wanted to stick to one scale. Decided to give the MG Zaku II 2.0 a go. Havent built an HG since then, MG is amazing. Go for it.
You probably got your MG already, but in case you haven’t…If you watch gundam It would be more enjoyable to pick the protagonist suit and build that. That way even if it seems like you mess up a little, the excitement of seeing it come to life will make you persevere through.
One of the MG’s I built that I enjoyed the most so far was the Infinite Justice Gundam. But I agree with Wolf that’s how I got back into this hobby lol
After about a month of work my custom zaku 2.0 is finished and I feel it fits in well on my master grade shelf with its off white color scheme and decals I hijacked off of a…
can’t go wrong w/ the zaku. paint job reminds me of the white ogre; i like it! i think the decals fit well w/ the kit, too. seems to exemplify the utilitarian nature of the suit
Thanks! I’m thinking about adding some dry transfers I found for it laying around in a box because I’ve found I like the super realistic decal heavy look
I kinda observe that Bandai now is somehow getting lazier in terms of MG production, like instead of releasing the long waited nightingale in MG, Bandai decided to just release it in a new line called RE 1/100 which is literally jus like a HG assembly but with outer armor details of MG and little inner frame. Definitely will rather spend money on…[Read more]
Cost of manufacturing to Bandai, and the price tag for the consumer would be a big turn off for everyone. Dendrobium, and Neo Zeong have no inner frames, and are HG’s look at the price tag on those, Nightingale is not exactly tiny either.
I get the impression that bandai has its own internal release and development agenda so I bet that somewhere in a deep dark warehouse there are already prototypes for a lot of mg kits people want and its just about timing when they feel they need to release a specific kit
My solution to the pink GN cables on the trans-am exia is a thick layer of red sharpie. Color matches the promo material much better. So watcha all think?
i agree with the accuracy statement since the red really looked good. One a good note though, i was able to reproduce the effect of the promo images with a red sharpie. just a thick coat of sharpie on the back of the piece and the color is close enough for me. Paint might not work since the part needs to flex to be assembled.
i put up a nice comparison pic, and you can really tell the difference. Also ive been finding more and more appealing to try and panel line this guy… possibly a flat dark red. not sure though
that guards type would be real nice. been thinkn if i don’t ever see an announcement for one by the time i get around to my geara doga (long way down the road from now), i may look into what it would take to dress that kit up to look like a geara zulu
I finished mine a few weeks ago and it’s pretty good. The shoulders have most of the issues where the pre molded shoulder joint is a bit stiff. The other is that there is a panel that slides off the upper arm of you move it too much.
These are really minor issues and it’s a great kit.
gotta be grunt suits. of course there’s plenty of love out there for the main protagonist suits (good & bad guy alike) throughout gundam’s various series’ & understandably so, but i’d be ever so grateful & willing to throw bandai my fistfuls of moneys if they would show a little more mg love to the humble grunt suits of the various gundam worlds;…[Read more]

not gunna lie sometimes rg is on the same level as mg in my opinion its just bigger so u should be fine
