Okay, 200 is over and done and now we are back to our (semi) normal routine with 201. Syd and Ryan talk about the newly announced kits while Todd shows up to go over the most recent Iron-Blooded Orphan models in […]
lmao awesome! i love the surprised Syd part when Todd brought out the finished Graze Ein xD was that really not planned? if it wasn’t, you have some great acting skills Syd. more power to you guys and waiting for the Shizuoka Hobby coverage and for more episodes!
Great episode as always.
It would be great if you opened up that box for us Ryan. Like to see what TakaraTomy made out of this Masterpiece!
Would be cool to see something different from IBO kits.
See you on the next episode!
I wonder if Bandai managed to fix the look of the GN Sword V on the RG 00-Quanta. It looked ridiculously flat on the other grades. So far I am not encouraged, although the rifle mode looks better.
I might get the Grimgerde even if it gets upgraded in season 2. I want to see what they do with the Barbatos in the fall before I get one. I only want to get one Barbatos.
Interesting choice on the 1/100 Barbatos 6th form, giving it 2 maces. Where’s the sword? Hi-Res is priced at PG range.
For that price I believe Bandai should have done a PG barbatos instead of the high res, but, we also have to admire them for trying new things.
I want to see that Zoid assembled, go for it Ryan!!!
graze eins sneaking slowly from under the table
and Syd kept on talking about how tall it is,
how dark its colors are, blah blah…
then realizing Tod already built one.
— hilarious!!! haha
Congratulations to all the winners and thanks to Syd, Ryan, Todd, Lindsay, Anna, Ardith, Robin and everyone else in the HLJ team that helped this episode happen.
It’s been great seeing not only the show but also the community grow over the years.
You’ve been doing great guys but now it’s the countdown to 300!
How about having the correct numbers, but not in the right order….. Hahaha
Only 100 episodes to go guys, chin up or start building for the real contest 😉
After five years, and a few extra weeks, HobbyLink TV is proud to bring you Gunpla TV Episode 200. A lot of planning went into this special episode, which was then discarded in large amounts due to the time […]
Hmmm… I don’t know if I’m early or what but first, congratulation for the 200th episodes!!! I watched you guys since the beginning and y’all have improved a lot.
It’s the first episode of gunpla tv that I watched since a 2 month long hiatus. (Cegep got in the way 🙁 ) It’s good to be back!
I’m not real sure about entering the competition since I’m very broke ( I just paid my tution fee and some additional summer courses.) I don’t think I’ll even have the money to get a model kit since I’m investing into a computer for studying engineering in university!
Anyways, glad to see you guys all healthy and keep up the good work! 🙂
It’s crazy how much time and effort you’ve put into Gunpla TV, the prices were way beyond what I could expect!! Not only that, the humurous video shows real dedication as well, haha! “Which one is Syd, and which one is Ryan?”, my favorite line from the skit. xD
Even though I didn’t win anything, getting recognized by receiving a consolation prize/coupon (whatever it may be) felt really appreciating, especially as a viewer that constantly follow the show like an eager dog. I hope you guys continue the show for as long as possible, and I also hope Syd’s wife doesn’t get jelly of (Syd’s second wife) the PG Unicorn.
Congrats on finally reaching the big TWO O O. Hope you guys keep going for another 200 more or maybe you shouldn’t because you guys keep making me spend money on kits. Any way looking forward to seeing the custom contest, too much talent for me to even think about entering.
Great episode guys! Was on the edge of my seat for the V2 prize but sadly no luck. Then again I already got lucky with the MG Gundam X on sale. Thanks for all the episodes and great fun, already looking forward to 201!
Congrats on making it to episode 200! I never realize how much work it took to make this Milestone episode. Props and Kudos. Keep on doing what you guys do best!
Well i didnt win, but it was still fun watching, i thought your first few “Chapters” were hilarious especially Todd’s initiation, good work guys and here’s to 200 more.
To be honest i didnt like how the prizes were given out. Bundles for only 10 people didnt seem fair to me. Could have stretched that out and let more people win even if they already have a kit; they would have been grateful.
The episode itself was ok. Some funny parts but i thought hlj was in Japan. All i saw were white folk. Haha.
Congrats on your 200. Ive been watching since the very beginning and enjoy your efforts, though i have never won anything ever which is a bummer.
Congrats to those who did win.
We are located in Japan and staffed by a large, diverse crew! All the folks who made appearances in this episode were included because they’ve been involved in some way with Gunpla TV or hobbylink.tv. Thanks for watching!
To Syd for creating such an awesome program, Newest team member Todd for the in-depth analysis of each new kit and Ryan for umm.. ahhh..
Kidding we all know just how much Ryan does behind the scenes as well as his onscreen cameos. (The Stan Lee of GunplaTV) Thank you guys soo much for the last five years of exceptional entertainment and information.
Can’t wait for the upcoming Comp. So many colour combination ideas. Hmm… Dark Barbatos maybe…
Congrats 200 episodes! Love your regrettable acting! Hilarious. I imagine Syd having tea with his best buddies unicorn everyday, not just for the show. Thanks for all the give-aways. Everyone got something! hopefully a discount code for next purchase. Looking forward to 201!
Thanks for this episode guys, and no wonder my Gunpla addiction has increased since I’ve been watching you, you have amazing dedication!!! Also, thanks for deciding that everyone is a winner, whatever it may be, really appreciate it!
blindside! wake up on a sunday and ep 200’s been out since friday? got me good on that one…
awesome 200th, Gunpla TV team; the festivities were much enjoyed!! the blooper segments lol’d me especially hard. good times, and congrats to the winners!
Even its the classic Gundam colors you did a great job making it not look like a toy. I first thought it was a bit over the top weathered, but in detail i comes out with an almost perfect Illusion of a heavy armored machine in small scale.
Thanks for comments..i had plan not to do weathering on that because to make it shine & give it glossy .. mybe i should try doing that technique on clear parts in future.
My first attempt weathering gunpla kit… just playing around with Real Touch Markers & pastel dust. Not the best looks but half way decent for my taste.
Great result!!! If you don’t mind me asking, didn’t the Modelmaking Guru post pics of your work on FaceBook? Could have sworn I commented on this build over there (very positive of course) 😉
Just started building the OVA version a day ago (gonna take a few months I guess)…. How did you do the sleeves if you don’t mind me asking, they look great!!!
That sleeves had made me crazy. I tried to apply reverse wash but not good to me, then do masking & paint it but not so pretty either. Lastly i go direct handpaint suprisingly its look better!
If you hadn’t mentioned it, I wouldn’t have noticed there is something off…. Was it a post-shading job?
If that was the case, a little tip for the next time, first do the darker tone for the edges and then fill in the large surfaces with the lighter tone. Did that same technique as you did on a Zaku once, my ldumb luck was that the colour lended…[Read more]
@Daverb _ You’re absolutely right. In my early days of building gunpla i do like the kit with the clean looks but now not much. Post shading is much better than nothing it should make your kit more realistic even it’s not painted.
As a teetee580 first said he do a dark tone like grey along the edges & give a fill light shade of white on large surfaces. For more tips & tutorial please checkout in youtube, you can always find a many great videos from the pro.
