same for me...

all i can do is just scroll past quickly when see agito's post. nah i won't bother to report/complain at helpdesk.

i think to remove, just use tissue + wee bit of thinner will do. just gulung tissue to get tht sharp edge then can remove liao

akchulli... please be careful when using any sort of solvent on ABS plastic which is used on RG frame. even zippo fluid/enamel thinner can cause the parts to be brittle. in terms of strength industrial thinner>hobby thinner>enamel thinner so pandai pandai la..

p/s. true story.. i saw a friend's rg rx frame got brittle and snapped..

Are the silver markings hard to work with? The one that came with Bandai's HD Color kits were a pain. They were too "hard" and wouldn't stick well without softener and setter.  sad.gif

nope.. pretty straight forward waterslide decals.. its really thin, so you can hardly see the decal after you used mark softener. i very like them!! thumbup.gif thumbup.gif

28 May 2011 - 6,825 Yen, i bet when it's released, Local shops at Japan will sell it around 6000 yen, or heck, who knows, even 5000 yen  blink.gif

shops here? they'll jack up the price like they usually do  tongue.gif
*
6825 yen with tax, so should be about 6500 yen nett.. in Japan, for sure it will be cheaper la.. i don't really think that prices in malaysia are jacked up, with the exception of in JJ or Parkson.. most hobby shops sell at a yen price of .038 which imo is very reasonable due to the high yen price.. expect the 00raiser to be about 240 @ .038 rate except for in Gamers Arena who airflow their gunpla in, which makes it more exp..

lol. so far have resisted buying multiples of the same kit.. buying is addictive yo! have faith that one day,i'll finish all tho. good news is i keep seeing improvements in every kit i complete, so that's motivation for me. biggrin.gif

actually, my rate of completion now is extremely slow.. so far have only completed one MG qubeley. another MG Dom on its way.. already have a rx 78 30th anni, rg zaku, 00 seven swords, MG wing all snapfitted, but yet to finish painting.. hopefully, can clear the log by this year..

i normally buy the kits with a plan in mind.. already know what i wanna do with the kits.. unless its a gift or something.. biggrin.gif some collectible kits i have no intention of building anyways (like the smoke clear RX)

good thing for me that nothing interesting coming up within the next few months, so i can concentrate on just clearing my stash..

The SD Kshatriya looks cacat though imho. Still nothing to get for this year except for the upcoming White PestX-San... mebbe pick up the missing Seed MGs during this rounds sales, and hopefully that limited orange destiny.

you forget the SD Wing.. looks too good to ignore!

good way for the missus to track your collection size btw.. (shall keep this from my own gf to avoid your situation in the future) sweat.gif

well, i stack some of em in toyogo boxes, some under my bed, some ontop of a shelf.. sd kits are really small, so can fit loads of them into a shelf.. i don't have many huge boxes ala hi nu or SF FBM..
