well, the kit is very limited and not to mention being an in-flight sale item for a certain ANA flight routes only sweat.gif

but yes, the price is very steep doh.gif

maybe i should wait for GBWC whistling.gif maybe can get good deal

yes you should. besides, it won't be long until the event will start thumbup.gif

but don't expect to get the same price as me lah. most probably the price would be jacked up a bit whistling.gif

one thing is, make sure you attend the event on the first day or you might miss some sweet deal brows.gif

Thanks for your great advice. I might try those models you suggested... See how this one goes. Problem is can't always find the model you want. I'll try look out for them since I got this to occupy me for now.

Ohh never really gave the decals much thought before this.. Thx for the tip. Erm can I assemble it before then after that snap open the parts and do the decals?

You all rock! Thanks for helping me start up.

one way to help you decide your next kit would be by visiting some gunpla review sites, such as Gunpla Inochi. you can find WIP (work in progress) pictures and reviews, so pretty much you can pick up some tips and tricks for building that particular kit.

not many kits shared the same parts or inner frame, so each kit you build might give a different experience thumbup.gif

of course will first day brows.gif
LT Sales also i try to make it on the first day.. hehe

I think Litt Tak still have stock for that, but not that many left. last warehouse sale I only saw about one or two units on sale, and that was on the beginning of the first day sweat.gif

well then, good luck hunting!

Okay bro, I'll do the decals as I build. Hope my hands are steady. Will post my updates.
*
I always practice doing the decals and detailing as I build ever since, coz there would be some places that are quite hard to reach to put on that little decal once the model has been completely built doh.gif

my method would be like, complete build one arm, straight away put on decals and do detailing. complete another arm, then again put the decals and also detailing, until the whole kit is completed. this way you'll have 100% completed kit, once you're done with building it thumbup.gif

if you build first, then later you'll do the detailing, who knows once done building feel lazy, then you malas want to put them on laugh.gif

Reviews i've read say the gold is great except for the fact that it attracts fingerprints from across the room.

some are not as bad.. like Astray Gold and Amatsu whistling.gif then again that's just a little bit and easier to handle and brush off brows.gif

Gold Frame is not entirely gold plated, that's why it's a lot more forgiving compared to those I mentioned sweat.gif

oh, one more: Akatsuki Gundam laugh.gif
