Is buying the Ex-s Gundam from G-System worth it??

QUOTE(TheAdmiral @ Aug 10 2012, 12:44 AM) 1. its resin, if vastly different from Bandai plastic. Not ur standard holes n pegs. Gluing is a must, n if u had no experience doing that, u'll leave a big mess n ruin ur highly expensive kit 1. Not a problem for me.2. Its bloody expensive by its own, not to mention for that particular model, u need Bandai Ex-S as base. So to make it work u hav to buy both the g-system n bandai which would drive ur bank account straight to hell. 3. it may look extremely detailed on photo, but in truth u nid to paint the details on ur own cuz the parts r all monotone. Bcuz there is not much parts separation, to paint all those details is the epitome of masking hell. 4. its chunks of plastic rather then parts by parts like MG, so its articulation is even worse then what bandai has (mind u its not as if the bandai ones had great articulation to begin with, so just imagine it to be even worse than that) 5. its metal-ecthed parts are a pain in the arse and generally not worth ur effort putting it on. 6. sometimes, despite its high price g-system quality r not really up to par (its the best of the resin company i'll giv it that, but at that price its just not worth it). Some parts could be warp n u nid to dip it in warm water to soften it up n bend it back to its proper position. Basically more pain in the arse. 7. if u happen to had some parts missing (very rare but had occur b4), well good luck finding replacement or even ask for compensation bro. 2. Money is no object either, though Im referring to the 1/35 scale one. I dont think u need the base Bandai Ex-s. Correct me if iam wrong. 3. Im all about adding detail. 4. Hmmm that sounds kind of discouraging 5. Not a problem. 6. Very discouraging as well. 7. And yes, that would require for me to have very bad luck which I do. |

QUOTE(rihuhs @ Aug 10 2012, 01:07 AM) sure a guy can hope, but at least be realistic and reasonable. you're saying it like you're applying for a job in a multinational company started as a regular staff, and hoping to be CEO in a year or two Im not new to this, I dont know why its so bad to hope big? Im not understanding why ur coming at me like this?? judging by your posts, I can say you're quite new to this whole gunpla & Gundam thingy, and simply buying a PG and having all the money in the world doesn't necessarily make you an expert. even if you are, you still doesn't seem like it in my point of view. I'm no old timer and my skills are not that advanced, but if you're thinking you can simply expect everybody to agree with whatever you're saying just because you think you're right, then no point posting it in a forum. better off start your own blog or something and rant as much as you want in it. Did I offend someone? |

Well, like u said Hxiiik, Do not feed the throll... or just report to mod lo if his post is inappropriate.. I posted once in that thread and it was an honest question and everyone overacted and its happening here too. As for here, and after looking at what every1 is posting.. and also this is a forum.. Anyway, according to his post.. he is just hoping.. well, every1 also can hope.. And I can say that it's actually an argument with no answers END OF CONVERSATION |

QUOTE(crash_99 @ Aug 10 2012, 10:26 AM) Hi guys.. Just want to say hi to fellow gunpla hobbyist. IF you havent already, try to invest some cash into an affordable compressor and spray gun for your kits.Been shopping around trying to find the best option to start my hobby, and end up with this lot » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « Coating and painting them makes them a whole lot better. Makes the finish look realistic instead of the regular plasticky finish. |

QUOTE(TaurusOxford @ Aug 10 2012, 01:54 PM) Why would you try to recommend a compressor and airbrush to a gunpla rookie? Those are tools for advanced modeling, not for someone who barely knows the basics. Also, if you want to get rid of the plastic finish, just buy a spray can of flat finish topcoat. Exactly, an affordable compressor and spray. Using markers and using spray are 2 different things. If hes a rookie, best way to start learning how to use one is by buying a cheap set. Nothing big and expensive, just to learn how to.Thats how rookies learn, thats how I learned when I started. U just cant jump to spray and compressor over night, it takes practice and the best kind of practice is by starting out small. I wouldnt expect you to know, this is coming from someone who puts work and detail and love to my kits. Im just giving him some help onto improve his kits. Im not ordering him to. Why are you so rude ?? As well as other members here? |

QUOTE(rihuhs @ Aug 11 2012, 02:44 AM) best way to compare prices is to refer back to the original price in Yen, and convert it to the respective currency. some international sellers like HobbyLink Japan might have crazy sales with dirt cheap prices, but you might as well consider the shipping cost, too. Ah, been to many forums with gunpla sections and I just figured maybe the conversion was in the higher end since a lot of people talk about saving for MG kits here. That or its harder to earn 1 RM than 1 US dollar or 1 Yen.This post has been edited by Rhasense: Aug 11 2012, 04:59 PM |

If they end up making a PG Unicorn next year. Would it be base Unicorn or Full Armor (or maybe some bits of full armor)
