So I recently started watching Gundam Build Fighters and have almost lost my mind of how amazing the fan service is. I haven’t been this excited about a Gundam series in ages, but it’s finally here! Even though I’m fairly busy with work, and have yet to get to work on my Hy-Gogg (because I want to make that one look really good), I can feel the…[Read more]
I wasn’t keen on build fighters when it first aired thinking it was a bit silly and “kiddy” but I agree with you. Its been delightful to watch and the show is filled with fanservice. As you can see Mr Ral won me over with the best entrance ever. Also he is voiced by the same guy who played him in 0079 (fun fact?) Anyway I too look forward to…[Read more]
thxs man , after watching some gunpla build fighter and playing gundam breaker i went back to my first kit bash and doing some touch up to the point it made me want to find a safe paint remover for gunpla and i used a process simlar to removing 40k paint and it works. and currentlyy still building it up man.
Hi Syd and Ryan! First of all, i just want to thank you guys for taking time to make your videos! They are awesome! I almost caught up in watching all the episodes, I think I still have 2 or 3 more episodes to go! Keep up the great work!
I have one question though about making my first purchase from your site.
Hey Guys! I was wanting to know what Daban Model brand is. I’ve never heard of it until know . I’ve also seen a few kits around including a pg strike freedom. Its a fraction of the price that Ive seen everywhere else.
Bootleg brand, there are other brands as well which are not related to Bandai like TT-Hongli and Dragon Momoku all of them are third party brands which imitate the kits that bandai have.
Hey Syd and Ryan, I could really kick myself right now since I got my MG Wing Gundam Proto Zero in the mail this week and broke a part. I know HLJ currently does not offer a replacement part service but are there any plans to in the future? It would be very helpful to those of us who live outside Japan.
😮 thats gutwrenching to even think about. sorry man! Maybe, try finding someone in Japan willing to order and send you what you need? I have heard of this before; but never used such a service… Anyway, GoodLuck!
GGInfinite and GenteiKits normally run replacement parts services but both have currently suspended them indefinitely. I managed to superglue what I broke so not a huge deal for this one.
im not sure where to post this guys…but im having trouble deciding which mg rx-78-2 kit to get…between the recent 3.0 and the o.y.w kit do you think the 3.0 is worth the 1000 yen ish difference?
hey bro, i think you should get the 3.0, Ive just finished mine a couple of days ago and it looks awesome, it’s not much different from the 2.0 with some parts just being white and all. Or if you cant really decide watch syd and ryan’s episode of the RX78-2. Hope this helps bro
thanks for the reply, the reason I like the oyw version is mainly the yellow vents on the chest how they’re popped out…I don’t think Syd compared the 3.0 to the oyw version…
Well, I got the 3.0 but not the OYW, so in a sense, yes, I think it’s worth the price. 🙂 But to me that’s mostly a question of looks. v3.0 is like a nice mix of previous MG Gundam designs (I particularly like the bits taken from the MG Gundam v1 – like the lower legs and feet). The OYW is mainly based on the design of the PG Gundam (which itself…[Read more]
Syd, I was watching the music video “nibun no ichi” by Back-On which is the opening song for Gundam Build Fighters. At the end they had this photo of the Freedom in the Plavsky Particle Clear Version model. Is this something special like a promotion or an upcoming kit? Looks really good
Hey Syd in my MG Sinanju Stein box there was a pamphlet advertising for a certain amount of yen that I could order the parts for a bigger shield for either the MG Unicorn or MG Banshee are offers like that only available to Japanese residents or can I still order it even though I live in North America
Hey Syd and Ryan, I would just like to ask if there is any news about an MG Kshatriya in the making? Because I’ve already seen the HG version and its awesome but an Mg version would would be twice or trice as nice. Thanks for the reply. And more gunpla’s to come!
A lot of people would love a nice MG 1/100 Kshatryia. There’s a good range of 3rd party kits to meet the demand because, AFAIK, Bandai has said it’s too hard for them to do a 1/100. A 1/100 is no bigger than 1/60 PG Strike Freedom on your shelf, so that’s not an excuse, and it shouldn’t be any more expensive than a PG either, so if PG will sell…[Read more]
yeah, i totally agree with you bro, i think it’s not an excuse. For example the MG O was huge but still they were able to release it in MG for a much higher price than a normal MG kit would be. Well i hope we all see one in the future tho.
Thats true, it would be awesome to see the Kshatriya in MG form but the HG The-O was 2400 whereas the HG Kshatriya is 4500 yen so the MG would be around the price of a PG. But hope to see one some day
yep thats how i am, i am revamping my first kit bashed by redoing it.
I’m surprised that I’m actually enjoying it. I still find it weird that Ramba Ral is in this series as one of the main characters though.
