Long time didn't show up in this realm....
Hello to all my fellow Gunpla enthusiast~!

Just wonder if GP01 is going to receive the V2.0 treatment, I wonder would GP02 and GP03 does?
Anyhow, just wanna know anyone has "invested" in the recent PG Strike Freedom, I'm planning to get one, maybe mid of this year. For those who bought one, anything to share?

Ever wonder why Bandai show pics of MG and PG when they are trying to sell a RG model??
Haven't bought a RG RX-78 or RG MS-06, who got, please give some comment.

reehdus, let's just hope that when it's launch, it will contain all the backpacks that it has. (Crossing Fingers)

My mum keeps telling not to play with kids toys since I'm in my 30s (just stepped into this realm today, ), I normally will reply her, "Models are not toys, kids can't really appreciate the stuff I bought!"

That's depend on how detail you want your Gunpla, if by just assembly it satisfy you, then you don't have to do anything at all, but once you started to try out penal lining and painting, you will found that you need all soft of tools. I would suggest that even for a pure assembly, the most basic is the cutter, sanding paper, cement, pen knife, penal lining pen and maybe some Gundam Marker for touch up.

Yeap~but be careful cause not any cutter will do the job, Tamiya has several type of cutters to do the job, Modeler's Side Cutter should serve you well as beginner, but you can always get 1 that sells at those electronic component shop, they have the same thin blade and sharp enough to cut through the plastic.

I don't have a Char Zaku V2.0, cause I'm more a Gundam fan boy, muahahaha..... But as long as you follow the instruction manual, you should found that it is not that hard at all to assemble the model. Painting side, all depend on you. For me, I will paint my model cause after painting it, cause it will looks more realistic if you paint it the "right" way. Take some time to browse through the internet for some Gundam modelers gallery and take a look at their work and you will know the difference between a painted model and one that doesn't.

Sorry Parody, I can't help but to answer this question.

Ok, Char's Zaku II is MS-06S (The red one) while the normal Zaku II are MS-06F (The green one), between the 2 model, the most significant different between them are their back pack and there are 5 extra thruster at the calf of MS-06S.

Ah.....my mistake, I only thought of the MS-06S and MS-06J, didn't thought of the others too, but if is like that shouldn't we told him to check wiki, cause there are version A~Z of Zaku II.

Anyhow, here's the wiki link if brother tanwenbing wish to know more.

Too bad it's only available to ANA passenger.

You have to take a flight with ANA.

Graffiti Toys at Time Square would be a place to drop by.

Anyone knows where does Alex goes? He used to have a shop at the basement of Lowyat, the name of the shop should be HGS, opposite the Hong Kong Restaurant - 港飲港食.

Muahahaha.....I think kidults like us are hard for them to understand~

Huh??!! what do you call the floor where the food court is located? Not basement meh?? LG ar?

Hahaha.....Ya, that time Alex was sort of obese a bit and always sleeps in the shop.

Ah.....The figure guy(Can't recall his name, ), I use to purchase all my miniature Gundam with him. Didn't notice that he got a shop a BTS ler. During the HGS time, all Gundam Kits are actually Alex's stock.

We can see that all current RGs are actually based on the models who had PG before. So, we can assume that Bandai won't risk themselves of making a RG that doesn't has a PG to reference for, cause that would means R&D all the way from the basic again, they don't wanna waste that kinda money.

Took photos for my MG Unicorn on Wednesday night for practice purpose. Among nearly 50 photos these 4 are the one I consider can show.

The last photo was taken by after clicking the shutter button I move the phone closer to the model, the outcome is like sudden zoom-in in some anime.
Hope you guys like it.

Yeap, airbrushed the whole thing, I used Mr. Color Character Blue for the shading cause wanna give a icy feel.

Hehehe.....don't blame the N8, maybe is my setting problem.

Thank you all for the complement.

I'll rather keep those so call clear edition un-touch if I really bought, cause you can sort of consider these clear edition as limited edition cause they only come out for a short period. Maybe in the future you can sell it with higher price. I'm not a big fan of clear edition Gunpla, cause I airbrush them and if I paint the clear part, it sort of lost it's meaning. Just my 2cent.
