If you enjoyed the ARF then you should definitely look into some of the other RGs. While not all as articulate once completed, they’re extremely fun builds.
Yeah, I enjoyed this kit allot. honestly. I was loosing the interest on the hobby, but this kit reminded me how fun and rewarding this hobby can be, I’ll try other RG’s for shure, and as I said I really hope Bandai one day release the big bad guys on RG form.
Excellent work. You can build only so many stocks before you get bored. Try to spice things up. Like changing the color schemes, adding custom decals & metal parts, weathering, taking a break, branching out into non-Bandai kits, or even other kinds of kits. If i have the time & money, I’d get the entire RG collection. IMO, RG is a waste since the…[Read more]
yes, I do all that, follow the link to my blog and check out my other stuff, if you look closely to the logicoma, it is fully painted, weathered and with custom decals. Nowadays I rarely build a bandai kit, they usually bore me or annoy me, but this RG Astray was simple and fun. I didn’t do weathering on this kit because of the stickers, which is…[Read more]
No, by stock I didn’t mean no painting, but painting as the instructions say, to the letter. No color change. No modding. No kitbashing. No custom parts. Like stock cars, they bore me to no end. I can see ’em on the streets, why would I build ’em? Race cars & bikes, on the other hand, are a different topic.
I totally don’t get RG’s reasoning. If…[Read more]
Well, don’t think it’s official yet, but it looks like the next RG is going to be from Wing series, like what originally had anticipated. However, instead one of the rest of the four gundams, it’s going to be another Wing, XXXG-01W. Hopefully it’s more than just swapping the feather wings and few pieces. Wonder if it can be transformed…..
So we have several MGs announced today.
– Amazing Exia (P-Bandai)
– Hyaku Shiki Kai (P-Bandai)
– V2 Gundam Ver. Ka (only mass release that was announced)
Finally got the last 2 kits for my G-Reco collection being the Kabakali and the Prefect G-Self. Also picked up the RG Astray Red Frame.
Next stop, PG Banshee!
also collect figures aside from gunpla 🙂 forgot to take a pic of the one before this which had revoltech peacewalker snake and cyborg raiden. here’s the latest haul. love the figuarts iron man line @.@
I quite like it, it reminds me a lot of the Ground Gundam/EZ8. I probably won’t be picking it up at this point though, as I’ve already got the RX-78 2 3.0.
Well, each RX-78 2 has it’s own style so when you look at 2.0 being anime style and 3.0 being new engineering in realistic design and proportions then that’s okay. Katoki has his own special design and I kinda think of this Origin one as a 2.0 to that one.
Even though I love the RX78-2, I think it’s normal that people get tired seeing so many reiterations getting released. But at the same time it was to be expected because of the release of the Gundam Origin show.
The unpainted prototype could be either the RX78-02 or the RX78-01 Test Type that used this equipment setup when it intercepted the platoon of Zakus that infiltrated Side 7 in chapter One (page 45), wiping out the platoon in chapter Two by shooting one at close range (page 49) which rips a hole open in Side & flushed it out into space so that…[Read more]
First half of my Gunpla sale shipment arrived from the post this morning. Also includes the BB Neo Zeong! Many thanks to HLJ for the freebies, too! 🙂 I was lucky enough to get all 6 different campaign weapons in one go! Can’t wait for the second half to arrive soon.
Those would be awesome MS to see.
