To me the Ground Type Tieren seems plausible in real life, looks like a walking tank. Having said that, yes, I agree. It's the one of two things that attract my attention. Apart from Overflag. Those two are lovely biggrin.gif

No. A walking tank would be inefficient as the limbs will probably wear out in no time. Furthermore, methinks despite our love for giant robots, a real life humanoid battle machine will be visible from miles and present itself as a really really visible and easy target.

I agree with your point of view. Such walking robot would exert too much ground pressure and many other complexities that it possesses. In real life, to much moving parts meaning more care are needed, or else frequent breakdown will occur.

But what I mean by plausible is the design of it such as no head design, heavy armor, conventional weapons (just to name a few) comparative to others Gundams or mechas in Gundam world. It doesn't have the excessive extra thingamajig such as funnels, laser armaments etc that would also cost a bomb in research. Good old proven design, like a real world tank e.g. Leopard 2A6, PT-91M etc

QUOTE(hyzam1212 @ May 5 2011, 08:48 AM)
Too big and too pricey, some more hard to find also. As I said before This guy is the way forward for Bandai. Latest transformable tank MS that take inspiration on its predecessors including Guntank & Hildolfr cool2.gif

eh u guys kenot say like tht, the hildolf is considered more to tank kit than regular gunpla. the details in it are very good. just add some weathering and detailing colours, it pwns all gunpla.

Manada.jpg No bashing intended. Hildolf is a great kit with great details, albeit too pricey for my kind of price range

Any photos to post, anyone? I also want to tengok-tengok brows.gif

MG MS-06F Zaku II 2.0
MG MS-06J Zaku II 2.0
MG MS-06J Zaku II 2.0 Elmer Shnell 'White Ogre'
MG MS-06S Zaku II 2.0
MG ZakuCannon

Awesome articulation. Other Zaku like Johnny Ridden's and the like maybe above RM150.00. Kut.

Biased towards Zaku, don't really fancy Feddies.

wanna ask, did you all paint the gundam again to cover all the nub after or before assemble?

As for me, I cut and make sure the nub marks were the very least visible, then handbrush the kit part by part. No money to buy airbrush sad.gif

Guys, if I might, there is something I would like to share.

user posted image

Much of my Gundams and Zakus are beyond repair (mostly 1/144) due to pindah rumah (I wasn't there because of exam last year), so I'm planning to mod. From what I can salvage, I manage to save GM Sniper beam rifle with holding hands, a Zaku I round shoulder shield, beam sniper rifle, backpack, machine gun, a Zaku II shoulder shield, a Gouf Custom backpack, and Janice (if I'm not mistaken) machine gun thingy. I already mod the Blue Destiny unit 2 wrist to accept older GM Sniper hands.

Any ideas will be useful in modding this blue thingy. I love the design and articulations, but don't really fancy the colours though.

Do redirect me if I posted in wrong section. Sorry for the pictures. Freaking camera phone now have more lines than before.

Okay, imagine this:
1) Put the Zaku I round shoulder shield on the left shoulder and the Zaku II shoulder shield on the right.
2) Attach the Zaku I sniper rifle over the left shoulder (like Full Armor Gundam).
3) Use whichever backpack you feel like using.
4) Leave the GM Sniper rifle as his main weapon since you already have the hands. Other machine guns could be attached to the side of the legs.
5) Since you hate the color scheme, go with the RX-78G's color scheme or use Full Armor Gundam's dark green and orange color scheme.

Thanks for the thoughts Parody laugh.gif Since it's using Zaku's part, it should be a Zeon scavenged Gundam right? hmm.gif

I think it should be nicknamed "Neo-Zeon Scavenger" or something.. built by people living a war-torn land, with scrap parts scavenged from post-war times hmm.gif

I'm thinking more of a mercenary after this thoughts of yours, haha laugh.gif
