I wouldnt call the Dom eye design being new. It works the same for the old HGUC DomRick-Dom kit (sadly only for this Dom kit and not others that even came later)
Hopefully it will be a flashy episode 200.
Maybe Syd asign a build to very member of hobbylinktv crew. That they would have to make and show on episode 200. Like Brian, Todd, Anna and Lindsay
Finnaly finished this kit after 2 years. Was going to enter this kit in the last Hobbylink.tv competition but the problems with paints and some accident with the kit leg (yeah…
I want that Rabbit ear MS (wonder if its MS A or B ^^). Also Bandai is shooting itself in the leg. In 1/100 we have No Grade,HG, RE, MG and now HR… Also pump up for the MG Thunderbolts… Psycho Zaku would put MG FA Unicorn to shame… Hell even the PG would look small 😛 (also the wallet will commit sepuku on the thought of getting the beast)
I think the line “oh crap I forgot to refuel the thrusters” was a nice touch. Remember that Barbatos was just a power generator with missing half of cockpit. Since it was put together on short notice it was inevitable that some things were omitted or forgotten.
Now i just hope Bandai wont screw this up. The best Gundam in a long time as for now.
I thought that bit was a little cheezy, though understandable. But I guess they didn’t want Barbatos and Mika to own everyone right away. Needed to hold him back a bit;)
Thats a nice givaway.
On the episode. Am I the only one who thinks Barbatos gives up a matador feeling with it look?
And congrats on the 5 year aniversary. Lets wait for the 10 year aniversary 😛
I doesnt look like Bandai decision. Still the kits should still be avaliable by ebay just with a mark-up by the seller who would have to pay the full price of the kit and also earn some cash from the sell.
Did you consider getting bigger (longer) fuel tanks for it. Like those with additional thrusters like in FA Unicorn?. I think the ones from the HGUC would look good.
My worst case of enamel paint curing took around 40 days (at least after those days it wasnt tacky anymore). And it was all because i was to lazy to go to store and get red acrylic paint, and noticed i had the right red in enamel….
