Hi Syd and Ryan, awesome guys! Is there going to be more Patlaber kits in the future? The exsisting kits are just too old(except the next generation version, i have one , and i like it so much) and i really hopes Bandai can remake some of the TV anime versions.

Thanks!

I used bleach in the recent past to strip chrome plated parts on kits, like on the MG Destiny Extreme Blast Mode. As the “gold” is the same, except for a clear yellow on top of it, the same method will work for you.
Just let the parts soak for at least 24 hours and use an old toothbrush to get the last bits out of the nooks and crannies. Be…[Read more]
Thank You, I appreciate it. I had seen videos of people stipping Chrome, but I wasn’t sure if Gold Plating was the same or not lol You explained that very well, thank you again.
