With the 3.0 and the origins, there are two 78-2’s without the propper opponent. I am sick of waiting for a new char Zaku. They could switch the whole production to a Zaku V3.0 and people would buy the faster they could build em..
I have to agree with tou the mg Czaku2 needs a new update the tunderbolt has enough to make it fell diff from the 2.0 but still it suffers from a lot of 2.0 zaku issues
Hey, I’ve been looking to get the MG Zaku Cannon for a few years, but HLJ has had it on backorder for the past 2 years now. Has anyone built or purchased the kit recently? If so, when were you able to get it and what are your thoughts on it?
I preparing to build my first MG, the 3.0 RX-78-2. I’m thinking of getting an MG Zaku as well, for some nice combination posing. Will a 2.0 Zaku look right next to the 3.0 RX-78, or will it look weird?char x
Although they have a different style, the 3.0 Gundam and 2.0 Zaku still look together. I would advise not applying the RG style decals on the 3.0 as that does make it stand out a bit.
I am about to start on a HG Unicorn, but I want to make that phyco frame stand out (without changing the color). This will also be my first time using a top coat (I was planning on a matte for the armor) any tips?
Haven’t build an HG Unicorn, but I would suggest not spraying a matte on te psycho frame parts and paint a silver on the inside of them. Bandai does provide chrome like stickers for some kits to be placed on the back side of clear parts. Painting silver on te back side of tem would be a great and rather easy way of mimicking that effect.
Good luck…[Read more]
Cool Idea friendo! But I think paint sounds like it might be a bit dense, do you think I might be able to get the same effect with silver sharpie? I also have some of the silver foil paper left over from the Nu Gundam Ver. Ka, do you think that could also work?
It’s the idea for it being dense, just so the light reflects off of it. If you use a silver sharpie and do two coats, my guess is it’ll leave you with the same result, only a bit more easy. Build the Nu myself too, and that’s how I got the idea (and te PG Unicorn to be honest). If you could use some of the left over foil, that would give an even…[Read more]
Right on bro, will try that out and post the finished product here. The Nu was a really fun build, but those new 3.0 hands are the worst has anyone found how to make them hold weapons better? Also how many PG have you built? I have yet to build one, but I am looking to Char’s Zaku II for my first.
Yeah, the Nu us a really fun build indeed. I solved the “sagging” hand by gluing the rectangle piece that lets the hand swivel in place and used some super glue on the ball joint to thicken up that part too. Mine has been holding that long beam riffle stretched out for two years now without a problem.
Only build two PG’s as of yet…. My first…[Read more]
