Haha is always like dat  ppl who want, but tak dapat/missed = unlucky ppl who don't want, but bought it instead = impulse buy/resell at higher price QUOTE(gaianeo @ Dec 11 2011, 09:07 AM) still thinking of wanna buy the sazabi GPB color or not..... got money + like it = must buy got money + don't really like it = just buy

QUOTE(zeroglyph @ Dec 12 2011, 09:51 AM) nope, you're wrong there. a lot of MG kits comes with waterslides (especially the older ones). wing zero EW and ver ka, normal rx-178 v2.0 and some seed model to name a few. even some 1/100 NG also have water slides. MG sinanju don't have though (addressing a previous post).  wow. never knew that. thanks for the info! but I can't recall any Seed MGs that actually have waterslides

QUOTE(gaianeo @ Dec 13 2011, 07:30 PM) yup some interesting facts though (at least for me): - MG Delta Plus shares the same polycaps with MG Zeta v2.0 - also, this is the first time I've seen the runner for MG polycaps are labelled with an alphabet instead of just "PC" (in this case it's "K")

QUOTE(yuyuyu @ Dec 14 2011, 05:43 PM) Actually.. i would prefer bandai release two version MG unicorn (normal and destroy) like the HG. Can fix alot problem lol that would solve the stability & articulation issues, but later got ppl complain "Y U NO make transformable kit?" it's an MG, so not being transformable would be a waste. better off make NG 1/100 This post has been edited by rihuhs: Dec 14 2011, 06:03 PM

QUOTE(shark7 @ Dec 16 2011, 10:02 PM) im doing rg 1/144.. its so small damn hard.. cannot finish the head.. also they give 2 stickers but how to know its for water or normal? both also vry hard to take out(sticker) RGs only came with normal stickers.. to differentiate, maybe can use this guide; normal stickers usually looks like one single sheet, with pre-cut shapes.. waterslides looks like it's being printed individually on the sheet, without that big excess sheet.. not sure if you get this also, the paper on the back of the waterslide decals are thicker and harder than those for normal stickers

QUOTE(General_Nic @ Dec 17 2011, 05:55 PM) the purpose of dipping clear stickers in water is to reduce the stickiness, so u can adjust the position of the stickers properly then use cotton bud to press down so all water is absorbed out n the sticker will stick on as it shud oh. so that's why. it's like making the stickers being waterslide-ish not a bad idea.. might give it a try

QUOTE(hocksoo @ Dec 18 2011, 10:24 AM) Does anyone know whether I can apply decal on Extended MSIA Sazabi? If yes, should it be 1/100 scale or 1/144 scale? Coz I know Extended Sazabi is quite big. I don't think it's gonna be a problem to apply decals on that. the only concern is the scale.. from what I know, MSIA are 1/144th scale, but I've seen review saying that this particular "extended" Sazabi is a non-scale, "slightly taller" than normal MSIAs.. so it might be tricky to make the decals looks decent comparared to its size.. 1/100 MG Sazabi is well known for its huge size, so to be safe I'd suggest go on with 1/144th scale decals

QUOTE(hocksoo @ Dec 18 2011, 02:45 PM) Is a action figure for Gundam. Something like Robot Damashii. yup. pretty much so. but MSIA's proportions are true to its original design, while RDs looks a lot more sleek. QUOTE(silentsc @ Dec 18 2011, 06:11 PM) Just done assembling 1/144 HG 00Raiser+GN Sword III >"< » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « 1st time doing gundam kit >"< nice one but the diorama seems a bit out of scale.. looks like 1/100th scale models fits better imo
