Yeah, after building two 1/100 kits, I feel the same way. laugh.gif

Why bother? Their SEED/GSD 1/100 line is made of smooth armor and fail. There's too little details on them (most of the time you'll get a flat surface with the same boring tiny panel line on each edge of the armor). I'd rather get 1/144 HG kits instead.

Speaking of which, the upcoming HGUC Zudah is a sexy model kit I must buy! BUY BUY BUY! BUY 3 AND MAKE A SQUADRON LIEK IN MS IGLOO!

Some of the HGUC kits certainly look good, but I'm unfamiliar with the UC timeline so I dont wanna get any of them. I prefer getting kits of Gundams which I'm familiar with, so that at least I can appreciate them a bit more. tongue.gif

Looking at various picthurs of 1/100 Freedom/S-F built out of the box over the Internets, and then looking at my MG Freedom, I have no idea why would anyone want a normal 1/100 when a superior MG's already around.

So you buy kits for sentimental reasons, instead of because you like their design? Hurr good luck in your crappy GSD kits. XD

Try watching 08th MS Team if you haven't already, it's relatively short (13 ep. OVA) and it's a nice departure from GSD's OMG SUPER LASER SPAMMING PWNAGE ROBOTS WE'RE ALL DOOMED! D:

After that, go read up and illegally download Advance of Zeta's manga. They're made of pwnage and win (I've never liked a Gundam design solely based on its design alone. Proof that Hazel's chunky design is superior)

Sentimental reasons? Not really. It's more like you can relate to the kit, sorta like you know what it's been through, who's the pilot (emo kid or not lol), etc. But I wouldn't lie either by saying the design's not a factor. That's the reason why I started with the Destiny (loved the design on that one heh).

About AoZ, I'm afraid it'll have to wait until I have the time. Pretty busy lately, and hardly have enough time to catch up on my animus as it is. >_<
*
Then it's for sentimental reasons then >_> (I'm still waiting for a 1/100 Gaia to make a diorama of Freedom kicking Gaia like a dog in one of the episodes)

AoZ's not an animu. They only have a bunch of novels and some comics for it. Nothing else.

Man, it must be magic to see those alloy-dehydrated legs being able to support that HUEG backpack of his (in anime and model both...  sweat.gif )

I-J's only seen used in space anyway, so that point's moot.

Guess what I found on June's Dengeki Hobby Magazine?

Oh god no! It looks hideously out of proportion! Legs are too thin, shield too large, torso too wide, the canon barrels for the backpack are too thick, gun too comically long and thin, and there's an odd spacing on the front skirt armor... D:

Urrgh...

People who uploads picthurs that aren't compressed should die! Learn how to compress those raw JPEG photos already. All the picthurs shouldn't be 2mb.

Very dumb is more like it. Dual handguns don't really belong to a mech. It belongs to people like Dante.

At least it used only one pistol, and doesn't have the faggotry-ridden OMG DUAL PISTOLS ON CROSSED HANDS! pose.

And I like Testament's design. It's sex.

It's in one of the Dengeki Hobby Magazine issues.

Both Red and White Testament Gundam (just phase shift magic, IIRC) were featured. Both have the same weaponry (pistol, HUEG CLAW OMG)

Gold Frame Amatu would CHOKE YOU AND SUCK YOUR ENERGY TO ZERO with its superior claw wings!

After some time he upgrade the MS with the claw thingy, but got killed. His younger sister took over the MS, whose leg was damaged when she and few others fought some mad man in space, and there comes the high heels.
*
And it should be noted that he and his sister are twins, and looked almost exacly the same.

Also, it's worth mentioning that Amatu has two forms too. The first form is just a basic upgrade from Gold Frame (wing claws, head, right arm), done by the guy. The second form is a further upgrade (gold claws on fingers, high heels, sharp feet, two extra wired electric spike thingy on its backpack) done by his sister.

I imagined that to develop the successor of the legend of One Year War the newly formed Titans Test Team asked Anaheim Electronics to assemble another RX-78-3 for the filed testing. Anaheim in return used the modules left over from Gundam G3 and spare parts to deliver one and being cheeky they put the WB logo on one of shoulder expecting it to be covered by Titans but to every one's surprise TTT was allowed to leave it on - probably a homage to the original Gundam.

No.

Hazel has a pleasing design. Nothing can match its beauty, no even a pretentious RX-78 in the standard TTT color scheme, with a white V-fin center as if to mimic Hazel's superior head design.

Juz bought mine from Popular Bookshop in Ikano. Selling at RM18. Still got 2 April issue and 1 March issue. But little but kemek oredi. Can get from MPH in 1-U or Midvalley as well.
The latest edition for Taiwan version, i think usually cost bout RM40 - 50 as u mentioned.  bought the old issue wif free gift at Popular for RM18 only!
*
For some odd reasons, the newer magazines are now selling at RM18 (the issue where they gave Trombe ver. Guarlion) over here in Melaka too, compared to the previous RM15 they have, for copies that comes with free crap.

AFAIK, all the Taiwan version are printed much more later compared the the Japanese versions (later by one or two months, IIRC), due to some agreement they have with the Japanese publishers (like animu DVDs, given how they're going to be sold cheaper than the Japanese version, cheap Japanese people would buy the Taiwan version instead, and the original Japanese producers would not profit much). They all costs RM15 (or RM18 right now) in retail if they come with free crap, RM7 (or RM8 right now) if they don't.

Sungai Wang area got lots of the April issue
I hope next time they will at least but a cardboard with the free gift
so that the magazine won't koyak  :furious:
*
It's standard procedure to have a thick piece of cardboard the size of the magazine itself to cover the free gift they have. Though for some odd reason again, I saw some of the recent magazines that came with the Guarlion didn't have the cardboard support, and the magazines are all bent due to the tight shrink wrap :(

The April issue you got is come with a cupboard?
All the outdated April issues selling in the market is not with the cupboard
I think it's due to the reason that they opened the original package & teared off the "offensive" page 137
and then they didn't put back the cupboard before wrap the magazine again
*
What's the April issue about btw? Is it the issue that comes with a tiny black Hazel Gundam gashapon, or the one that comes with a Trombe Guarlion figurine?

I remember seeing a nude resin figure of some girl in Dynasty Warriors (or some girl with ancient Chinese style armor) in a Japanese magazine of the issue that came with the said Hazel gashapon.

I lol at the tearing off page part nevertheless. Do people even care? All the magazines are shrink wrapped, you can't see any content unless you rip it open. There's even two page full of Asuka in swimsuit in suggestive bent down pose, with one of her bewbs popping out from the one-piece swimsuit back in Dec2004 issue D:

KIIITAAAAAAA!!!!!!

I CAME! HARD! Anything from AoZ is made of win and gold. I'd get that kit so I'd end up with three Hazel models having a threesome hurr (although it still really seemed like nothing new's been done on the kit, I see a new detatchable triple booster backpack, a new back skirt armor and the lower legs)

Because CE is made of lose, pretty boys, 0 IQ and FLIP OVER FOR MASSIVE FAILURE! SEED was just great after the first season. It should've ended there. Destiny is nothing but a travesty.
