Anyone anticipating Sinanju Stein when it hits later this month?
I won't finish it until I get 3rd party decals from Samueldecal though, they have spoiled me with their awesomeness. Can never go back to dry decals, or the normal clear plastic sticker ones.

I was, a bit tempted at first with the MG Sinanju Stein Ver. Ka, but later when seeing finished product and looking at how plain it is, so I'm just gonna pass

I'm waiting for MG Jesta, and MG Aile Strike remaster to complete my 1/144, 1/100 & 1/60 Aile Strike icon_idea.gif

PG Skygrasper + Aile Striker was like the most affordable PG out there laugh.gif

I already have the MG GP01, but althought I'm a big fan of the GP01, the PG isn't really up to my taste sweat.gif

That means its expensive ?  doh.gif

Vorador's Strike Freedom is a Perfect Grade/PG kit, 1/60th scale. about double the height of most MGs.

the cheapest PG Strike Freedom I've found is about RM850, although somewhere above RM900 is quite common nowadays.





...and that's the price in hobby shops, not in shopping malls like Parkson or Jusco that will cost you double than that laugh.gif

i have this one too whistling.gif looking to purchase a A1 soon.. (huge Zeta fan here rclxm9.gif)
too bad i broke the handle on the beam smart gun.. but fortunately the peg onto the arm holds really really well, and the handle doesn't really do much except have him hold the gun in 2 hands whistling.gif but just putting his hand at the bottom of the gun barrel holding it up looks good enough for me laugh.gif
chriswoo got more CUSTOM Zetas whistling.gif i only have uh.. SD, HGUC, MG2.0, MG Plus C1 and RG laugh.gif long way to go for my zeta collection whistling.gif

mine has some problem with its huge cannon, one of the hatch that opens for landing gears have become quite loose, not staying closed when displayed in Waverider form for aerial poses. need to put in some blu-tac for that

Haha... this one I ald built before CNY, his very very very loooooong gun makes it impossible to stand straight, after awhile will bengkok a little bit....
I'll post my drillzzz later after complete my A1. Hope u guys gv some comments for improvement. Btw, I've built MG RX-78-2 ver.1.5, MG Freedom, MG Zeta Plus C1, MG RGZ-91-REGZ, MG RX78-4-G04. Newbie here, jz started this hobby late last year. Learn from Youtube mostly.....  brows.gif

MG Zeta Plus A1/C1 is quite tricky to pose since the articulation is quite limited, although I found mine to be slightly more back-heavy despite it's long cannon

and speaking of which, I just recently built MG RX-78-2 v1.5 too icon_rolleyes.gif

one does not simply come to this thread and expect not to be poisoned brows.gif

FYI Zeta Plus A1 is the red/white one, and Zeta Plus C1 is the grey/blue one

Glad to hear that, actually I ordered GP01 but Gundam.my mistaken and posted this to me instead  doh.gif .
Anyway, to avoid the trouble i accepted it and turn out I like it! the torso is very loose though, very easy to take off.....  sweat.gif
*
yeap. but current transformable MS has better build, like the MG ReZEL & MG Delta Plus. the torso is a lot sturdier and better articulation range compared to the ol' Zeta Plus MGs

QUOTE(SniperUnit @ Feb 18 2013, 11:40 AM)
1 quick question before I go for lunch, what do u guys do with the extra decals? Use own creativity to stick on the model??
*
depends. although I refer to the manual when it comes to appyling decals, but that's still subject to my preferences. only put on where I see fits, and trying to avoid from it to become crowded.

as for the leftovers, I just keep them just in case needed to put on kits that have very minimal decals, like this HGUC Powered GM:

Exs thigh is the least of its problem. While true the side skirt does gets in the way, u can pull and swing it down to move it out of the way however it'll look weird doing so. Exs mostly hav no articulation, waist is completely immobile, knee is hindered by its knee armor, elbow can only move forward due to the design and the backpack getting in the way. Its a brick but its meant to be a brick and look cool being a brick.

that's one way to describe it laugh.gif

I'm not sure about a pink Zeta Plus, but if you mean the MSZ-006-3 Zeta 3 "White Unicorn" then it's very, very hard to find laugh.gif

daydreaming has one if not mistaken brows.gif

as far as I've been going on with this hobby, I've never seen one being sold in retail, as in being displayed in shops or something like that. most of the time I've encountered the Zeta 3 only from garage sales, hobby quitting sales, clearance sales etc.

all and all, something for cuci mata cool2.gif

I forgive Bandai since it was like 2007 release... But I'm sure they will redeem themselves with the upcomingRG version....again...just think only, wallet not exclusive enough to get that RG exclusive release...cuci mata saje...

redeem? stickers again? laugh.gif

...or maybe they would have given waterslide decals with it instead of the clear stickers? hmm.gif

Guys, I need some opinion, which is the better option?

-PG Strike with postage Rm490, purchase PG Skygrasper next time

-PG Aile Strike + Skygrasper 30th Anniversary Clear Edition with postage Rm590

I don't like clear, but I'm going to paint anyway, so no difference, but I'm only worried about the fragility of clear parts  sweat.gif
*
as far as my own experience, I don't think the clear parts have any difference in terms of rigidity compared to the solid ones, so nothing to be worried about.

also, since you already mentioned that you're gonna paint your kit then the Anniversary edition sounds like a better buy. saves you a lot of time and about RM180 to fork out for a separate PG Skygrasper + Aile Striker

I saw PG skygrasper at rm185 in gamers arena last week, with rm490 for strike, I think it's better to buy d normal one, well tat's at least for me la tongue.gif
*
"normal" PG Strike (RM490) + "normal" PG Skygrasper & Aile Striker (RM185) = RM675

30th Anniversary Clear Edition PG Strike + Aile Striker + Skygrasper = RM590


since General_Nic already mentioned he's gonna repaint the kit anyway, it's pretty clear who's the winner here laugh.gif
