Pink mah pink loh... MG Strike is still a good kit, awesome launchpad.

lol, wat Agito n i meant is use fingernail to clean the nubs' whitish marks la

especially those dark coloured parts, after u cut it got leave behind white-stretched-plastic marks
rubbing with fingernail seems to reduce the whiteness

Scratching the nub marks with finger nails is a common trick. Works well for lightly coloured parts, but for dark (esp black) parts use some panel lining markers to go over the nubs.

planning not to follow the decal plan
instead of decal on spot that i like
is that ok?(for the rick dom)
*
Why not?

I note that yours is an MG... where's the Char figurine?

The HGUC Rick Dom doesn't even come with decorative stickers. No Zeon emblems, no numbers, no warning decals whatsoever. Only monoeye and ugly yellow for the scattering beam gun.If you got the combo G3-Char custom Rick Dom set then you'll have much more stickers to apply.

If only there's a separate HGUC Char Rick Dom available. Don't really like the G3...

it's okay bro. it's good to spend on something you really like, and you can truly appreciate. it's not like we're doing something bad, right? laugh.gif

currently got no kit to build. my VF-25S already done with the build, but the nauseating amount of the decals made me rclxub.gif

tried to use the water slides, ended up with some of them peeling off by itself, especially the big ones on the curvy surfaces.. this proves having a softer and setter is a must to make sure the water slide decals sticks on perfectly doh.gif

by the way, waiting for MG Delta Plus & RG Destiny whistling.gif

for me, reviews are only opinions and guides. the final decision whether to grab it or not is still personal preference. no matter how good a kit is, if you don't like it (in terms of design/colour/proportions), then u still not gonna buy it right? unless you buy it for the sake of "completing *something-something* collections" or "damn it's dirt cheap for an MG" lah laugh.gif

at least those reviews will help the builders with what to prepare, avoid, or a big no-no, so you don't end up with an expensive pile of broken plastics sweat.gif

You probably read this:
http://www.gaijin-gunpla.com/mg-delta-plus-review-55-7/

Not sure whether Syd bought a lemon, or maybe all DPs are shabbily built.

Sometimes it depends on your luck - as mentioned before my MKII's joints are weak as f*ck, my Aegis likes doing splits, and my Blue Frame is a jellyfish. As long as you enjoy the process of building it that's all that matters.

Having said that, transforming kits often have horrible joints anyway. Too tight and you'll break something, too loose and you have a rubbish limp kit.

If you don't have enough cash, go for HGUC Delta Plus. Cheaper, more solid, less moving parts.
