SD converge eh.. very hard to find in local market.
i'm more interested on why the Nu Gundam comes with 'Pegasus' & 'Amuro' insignias.. try reading the japanese words, anyone? cool2.gif

well, for me that's what I enjoy the most about gunpla; the joy of assembling & detailing.. although I'm not reaching the extent of painting my kits.. hohoho.. rolleyes.gif

I don't really mind taking time to complete a kit, coz if I rush it, surely later will see some senget here and nubs there.. I took almost two weeks to build my MG Exia.. doing it little by little, make sure each and every part are nicely trimmed.. it's just a straight build, with (some) markings and also the so-needful panel lines.. not to mention trying to spending some time between my work schedule.. sweat.gif

my NG Green Frame on the other hand, completed in a matter of hours.. quite surprised myself it's done quickly.. tak berapa puas la.. probably it's going to be my first and only NG kit.. after this strictly MG only.. laugh.gif

just now completed the head of the MG Zeta Plus.. dunno when will I proceed with other parts.. doh.gif

Added on March 27, 2011, 1:36 amtalking about the Zeta Plus, I'm quite curious.. I noticed the white parts are not really THAT white.. more to beige/milky white.. is it the actual colour of the Zeta Plus, or is it due to this gunpla kit already aged about a decade..? (it was made in 2001) sweat.gif
*
that is 2001 kit, but bandai does re-issue it from time to time.. so what u have is relatively new, unless u bought it since 2001. laugh.gif
planning to get this kit oso.. do share after u finish building it.. icon_rolleyes.gif

the other day me n my friend borong some gunpla from Time Machine.. I got myself a MG Zeta Plus n MG Blue Frame 2nd Revise, while he bought MG Unicorn, MG Red Frame Kai and MG Kampfer.. got ourselves 4 gundam markers for free.. laugh.gif

hmm.. that makes sense.. if its really is a decade old, i bet the box must be hancur kot.. hahaha.. my box still shiny and in good condition..

about the colour of the Zeta Plus, I just noticed in the painting guide from the manual, the beige-ish IS the actual colour.. hahaha.. if you wanna get one of this, try look at Time Machine.. they sold it off for RM108.. if I'm not mistaken there's still one more.. rolleyes.gif

Graffiti is the best to make you rambang mata + jaws dropped.. but imo Time Machine is better priced.. nod.gif

some said that Graffiti is cheaper, but as far as I ever looked through, the price is about the same as Fantasy Toys in LYP rolleyes.gif

Time Mesin is bad for browsing, esp when the auntie is there, she'd be following joo around, keep on pressuring joo to buy tis and tat. shakehead.gif

So now wad I do is, browse elsewhere, rmbr da prices, then go see Time Mesin got or not. brows.gif

What? My first time go in browsing also, she never follow me. I just selamba go into shop, she ask "anything you wanna buy?", I just reply "I'm looking around first," and she left me alone biggrin.gif
Time Machine is moving out to Plaza Berjaya, that old building opposite of Time Square. From the look of it, that is going to be bad for them in the long run (doesn't look like a great place to get your toys), unless they lower their prices on alot of things and stop scalping their "rare items" so much.

Wah, how come you all shop for Gundams from TM or XL?

Gamers Arena obviously has the best price there, unless they increased the price already. Otherwise, all my Gundam kits are from GA only.

Yeah, but it's 8800 yen. If it's accurate to scale, Prime should be around 28cm. shocking.gif

Metal Build is still an action figure and not a model kit.


QUOTE(darude87 @ Mar 27 2011, 09:42 AM)
actually i'm curious, what is metal build? MG with better articulation? tongue.gif

Overpriced plastic action figure with a few die-cast parts. Better articulation? I don't think so.

True for action bases, modelling goods and some kits only. There's always not much Gunpla choice. Cheaper if you go to GT or Aunt Lenny's, if you know how to bargain. wink.gif
