QUOTE(gaiachronicler @ Sep 8 2010, 08:54 AM) that is pg box style of recent 1. (started with PG red frame's) if they make the box like that to all mg = price increase then i rather buy the plastic & manual. dun wan the box. the reason they make the box-handle stuff is because they want to compensate?  (an MG almost the price of PG) Another reason is that the box is too heavy and large compared to other MG boxes as it cannot be held in a normal way as we do with MG boxes.

QUOTE(madmoz @ Sep 8 2010, 09:25 AM) i don't want any 'enhancements' for the boxes. the boxes masuk tong sampah with the leftover runners anyways for me. Whoa. Guess you don't treasure the box as much as 80% of us here do. Leftover runners yea. I throw them away the second they r empty.

QUOTE(Parody @ Sep 8 2010, 04:44 PM) Both also got the same problem. Brittle joints. I own the MG version and even though i like the kit but recommend that people skip this kit. There are a few major problems with the wings and the torso.

QUOTE(Parody @ Sep 8 2010, 05:19 PM) ...and the PG will inherit all the flaws and make it worse with the weight of the wings.
Just like how MG Aile Strike has no problem standing on its own and how the PG Aile Strike can't. Well since its being redesigned by Katoki i hope he revamps the whole inner frame. But judging from his previous works i'm afraid he might make it even heavier and bulkier

Bandai should become a dairy producer instead.

QUOTE(Impulse10 @ Sep 9 2010, 11:15 AM) o. nvr try tat. thanx for the advise. will try later. but i got try using tamiya chrome marker as 1st layer & fin with tamiya gold leaf as second thin layer. effect is some how acceptable. Hmm.. I might or might not, Parody. Depending on what quality of milk they give us. About the chrome marker thing, we just mark it above the plastic? Or we have to go through another mixing process. Anyway its getting out of topic so lets just refresh our mind with some Clear Colours. HG 1/144 00 Qan[T] 1,700 Yen (inclusive of tax).     Finally my mind is clear from the ugly Hi-Nu from a few days ago.

QUOTE(Impulse10 @ Sep 9 2010, 12:00 PM) u got tis bro? seems nice. only problem wit clear is the nib mark. thinking to try polishing compound to c will work or not. or mayb polish the whole clear part then will produce "bling bling" effect?  Nope i don't have this. I want one  . I have a tad lot of nub mark troubles as i'm still a beginner at this  . Hope to improve asap. I started gunpla-ing early march this year.

QUOTE(z3r0717 @ Sep 9 2010, 07:37 PM) well, we modellers can't accept nib marks so there's the process of painting in the first place. Gunpla are model kits not toys.. Yea i know that HG will be different, well they are small, of course not all the color will be there but that is mostly for the old kits. Newer kits mostly don't have that issue alr.. It's ok, i forgive you padawan. and selamat hari raya to muslim friends Well.. I know this is not the appropriate place for asking but is the process of painting kits easy? if we spray each runner colour by colour.

QUOTE(Impulse10 @ Sep 12 2010, 11:41 PM) any chance destroy gundam will come out in mg? biggest mg ever? http://img240.exs.cx/img240/3212/11115578604840sb.jpgIts 4x the size of force impulse. Estimation would be roughly around 70-90 cm. That is unreasonably huge. might be the biggest stand-alone gundam.

I'm sure it will look 10x more badass if it can let off the load on his head.

QUOTE(StarGhazzer @ Sep 13 2010, 08:45 PM) That's what you get when you don't look for reviews before purchasing a kit  At least you won't complain of weapons dropping off with those fixed fists. I couldn't agree more. Really appreciate Bandai when they actually give quality product like MG Strike Noir instead of repeatedly milking us out.
