i got a question... when i assemble my MG Zeta gundam earlier. I accidentally broke the arm joint part when try to play around with it.
It there a possible chance that i can buy only that part so i can fix it instead of throwing the whole thing away?

Any idea what is the sales gonna be like? I am currently purchasing from hlj.com as i see their price in yen is a lot cheaper than any seller in MY. Even include shipping, if i buy 8-10 units, i will save a lot.

You could try Gentei Kits that offer parts service but i haven't try it yet or if you don't mind have another kit of it, you could just search in the sale thread to find someone sold that kit on much cheaper price.

Got my replacement part from Gentai Kits. 1000yen (RM35) for 3 part + shipping. Thanks for the info. smile.gif

I have deal with them twice and so far don't get taxed but i heard if your goods + shipping cost over RM 500, they can charge tax on you but i suppose depend on luck on that.
*
my total shipment i think more than RM1.5k, so you suggest me to ship it in 3 shipment instead? because i really scare kena tax as I am helping someone here to buy as well. ohmy.gif

The total item price is 54k yen. haven include shipment. I hav around 15 MGs there and also some tool kits.

Hi guys,
I've spent few hours yesterday to browse thru this thread from page 1 until last. Then I realised that MG and PG are FAR FAR FAR more good looking than HG. Eventhough the price is a concern and a huge difference but may I know will it be too fast for me to jump into MG? I've completed 3 HG models and now are itching to ugrade to MG. Please adv me as I'm new in this hobby.

Currently aiming for these 2 MG models as the price is below RM100.  rolleyes.gif

MG RX-77-2 Guncannon (Like the cockpit)
GF13-017NJ Shining Gundam (Like the shinng hand)

if you think jumping from HG to MG is bad, then my case is worst. I get 3 SD gundam and start playing with them. then i get a bit addicted and bought the whole sanguoden set and finished assemble every single 1 of them.
1 SD unit takes around 30 mins to assemble. then i started getting myself a Strike freedom MG, took me almost 5 hours to build, feels challenging. and now i have around 15-16 MG =.=, wallet bocor already.

it's not a race guys. take time building your kits and also maybe put in a little effort on detailing it. gunpla are not meant for who can build it the fastest

I myself take at least 4-5 days for an MG/RG and sometimes even longer. depending on how much time I have on my hands. my record breaker would be my MG Unicorn Ver. Ka, took me a month to finish due to tight work schedule sweat.gif
*
i agree. but to do those detailing stuff, you need a lot of tools. in my process of getting the tools and start some painting job soon. a bit regret that I applied my strike freedom's decals on too early.
and i lost my hyper mode god gundam's sticker set sad.gif

i broke 1 of the joint (Gold part) in the wings for my strike freedom, but i just put them together (without glue) and just cover it with the outer cover (dark blue part). It still work like a charm when i play open and close the wings.
Not sure why you guys hate it. But I think it is good. At least i feel it is the best for now among the 4 MG unit (strike freedom, destiny "extreme blast mode", hyper mode G gundam, Zeta V2) I have.

any of you guys compare the price in Singapore and Malaysia before?
I know gundam Kits are more expensive in SG, i bought my Extreme BLast mode Destiny for $149 - 20% = RM298.
on the other hand, paints and top coat are selling cheaper.
top coat in Msia = RM40 per can (LYN Price) while in SG they only sell $12 (RM30) per can.
Anyone compared the price for Airbrush before? I plan to get an air brush soon.

in my opinion, the price difference is very small compared to the cost for you traveling back and forth just to get something that's merely a few bucks cheaper, that is unless you're talking about bulk purchases

I am in JB la... So for me to go to Singapore is just like driving from Subang to KL.
more over i work in Singapore. there is a hobbyshop near my office, i check the price there but too bad they dont sell air brush kits =.=

The magazine belongs to me, and yes it came with the catalog, not just ver Ka but all MGs as well.
It includes stickers (I thought it was decals) for the 1/48 Zeta head.....but I'm still waiting for the head  cry.gif

Again, thanks to bro Lester, really appreciated  smile.gif
