Between these 2 choice, best would be the MG wing, bt because u are a starter, I advise strongly tht follow the manual closely and slowly when u fixing the gundam.

seems tat StarGhazzer forgot to put the 'l' word at the 'html'

Thanks for the advice,

Yea I never built any Gundam model before .. I guess since MG would require some experience, maybe I'll just get the exia since I prefer them big anyways, probably bigger parts are easier to put together.. HG is kinda small for me.. Any non PG 1/60 model that's better than exia that you can suggest? So far from my research I found that he's the best..

actually Mg not really as hard as u thought... as long as u can follow instruction.. u wont mess up.. my first mg was GP01 still one of my favourite design gundam.. hope they come out with MG v2 for this

To be honest, i will still jump straight to the MG if money is not an issue. I started off just like you as well, thinking of purchasing something simpler in the sense of HG just to have a test. But after purchasing my first MG (after i got my first NG), i felt that MG aint that hard either. It just contain more small parts and "seem" complicated but as long as you follow the manual, there should not be any problem.

iya dont worry as long u dont throw or burn the manual away can d. I even see secondary school kids so rich jump straight to pg

Ya, just follow the manual.

bt dont be like me though, MG Crossbone Gundam as my first MG, damn so many small part Hard to pasang, plus I finish it within half a day due to my inpatient self during tht time, and I was feeling sleepy when almost complete cause tht time it was already 3am.

So after i did my 3rd MG, and I look back at my first, I really and dismantle everything and do it properly

My gundams always nearly fall from the cabinet. Do anyone could sugggest a solution? Should I just double sidded tape the gundam's feet?

Hmm if you don't have too many, maybe can put them on action base

Blue tag

Who wants to buy PG Skygrasper + MG GM ver2.0 and a HGUC D-arms. please let me know..

i dont know if you guys know this.. hyaku shiki HD mode is being sell at 169. is that cheap?

Hmm I saw some MGs on display, for me they seem kinda small, between TF deluxe and voyager size.. a bit bigger than HG 1/144 I guess.. since I want 1 or 2 first for play and posing purposes to get the feel of owning Gundam, that's why I'm thinking of getting a 1/60 size so that it stands out on my shelf, but of course PG is out of my budget.. maybe I'll get both, but try with the exia first ..

Either your cabinet has unstable joints, or someone is kicking at them regularly. Gunpla are usually sturdy enough to stand their own feet without falling down, unless it's an unbalanced design like the backpack-heavy Seed series or the Kyrios. Use some blue tack, get an action base, or make your own hangerwire stand.

4800 yen... you do the math loh. Although it's won't be a surprise if the seller is jacking up the price as the verHD is supposed to be a "limited edition".

MGs are small, but they are highly detailed. 1/60s are not worth getting since they are merely blown-up versions of their 1/100 counterparts - which means inferior proportions and articulations compared to the MGs.

I don't understand why some people claim that beginners shouldn't try MG for a start. Unless you're trying something radical like kitbashing or custom-colouring, MGs are no more difficult than HGs in terms of snap-fitting. Follow the manual and everything will be fine.

probably trying MGs for beginners isnt at best to the expert's eyes, lol at least tat's their opinions though, probably budget-wise too.

"beginners learn the cheap way, then they can go for the more-expensive kits (MGs, NG 1/100, PGs)" << i heard a lot of this

and i see no harm if beginners like to try a MG as a start liao , heck mine was the MG Gundam 2.0 and it turned out good liao

just follow the manual, everitin will be fine.. i do mg since 13. not really a prob since bandai give the manual. just take a little time at first. u know.. want to see really detail picture of manual etc. but it'll be ok when times go on..

MG or HG, it's the same.

it's a matter of how much money are you willing to lose if you accidentally break a core part?

RM70 for NG Exia or RM 320 for MG Ex-S?

EX-S superb.. who own it? how u'll pose it? gundam or jet?
i got a zeta plus c1. dunno which form better.. both i like.

then just get another one.. hehe one can be posed as jet and one as gundam..

totally agree with u no matter HG or MG or PG everything also refer back to the basic knowladge of gunpla. Only thing that define difficulty is the number of parts and detail that you which to color and express your skill. otherwise snap fiting any bandai gundam kits is just follow the manual and basic skill.

well HG, FG is kinda good for the low buget type that want to do gunpla or pratice. but somehow mostly like mg because is an average among all 4 grade as well as it was highly articulated and accuracy in coloring mold (meaning no need to color).

well I also recently build my Zeta plus C1 and the wave rider form are nice.

lol, its like buying 2 Unicorn gundams, one pose it as unicorn mode & the other pose it as the destroyer mode
