Where the hell do those two huge yellow stickers go? I don't mind the others since stickers that small are easily substituted by Gundam marker, but those yellow ones look silly for a MG.
*
If it's pure yellow I don't mind too as can easily paint it
but if it's orange yellow like UC series then it'll be a problem getting the colours right sweat.gif

Bandai just announced the HGUC Banshee Norn in March. My question... Is the huge shield design similar to the 1/100 one offered as an add-on for the MG Unicorn OVA / ver. Ka?
*
it does look the same, but can't confirm yet hmm.gif

QUOTE(nazrul90 @ Jan 12 2013, 05:08 PM)
same case with HG Arios when the fin at knee they decide to give foil stickers
but for 1/100 they make it separate and color molded

why cant they do same for MG Tailgeese?
*
because Tallgeese fins too puny tongue.gif

Browsing GA websites see got any good gundams then call them see got any discounts...  laugh.gif
*
be warned, most of the good stuffs already sold out
plus that branch's price are higher than GA @ BTS, hence after 25% discount it'll be only like 15% cheaper than GA @ BTS
unless you are nearer to that area than KL, then it won't be worth the transport and time sad.gif

yesterday I was there, it took me quite some time before deciding any kit was worth to buy
in the end went home with HGUC Anksha, normal price Rm100, after discount Rm75

e@Curve's outlet does cost higher... but...

I got my MG Delta+ from there, by placing my order to the KL outlet and asked them if I can pickup from e@Curve outlet. They even gave me the same price they selling in KL outlet.

Very good service.  thumbup.gif

Oh, probably the only hobby shop that doesn't charge you surcharge for credit card transactions?  biggrin.gif

I assume, Nu ver KA has no discount there? I just bought mine before the close down announcement.  sad.gif
*
none MG Nu Ver. Ka seen
I assume they already shifted latest and high demand kits to GA @ BTS before starting the sale

best example of a kit that got a sales boost due to portrayal in anime is HGUC Byarlant Custom
before the OVA, nobody bothered about the original Byarlant lol

well, they already milked RG Strike with Strike Rogue and IWSP, so RG Strike can be put out of question
RG Skygrasper & RG Mk-II I can't think of any variations, so do Freedom & Justice
so that left RX-78-2, Zaku II, Zeta and possibly Destiny

the variations possible:

RX-78-2
- G3
- Real Type Color
- Casval Custom

Zaku II
- White Ogre
- Black Tri-star

Zeta
- White Unicorn

Destiny
- Heine Westernfluss Custom

musha. applies to both rx78-2 n mkII (though highly unlikely)
*
but that requires change of parts, which Bandai hardly does for limited edition items
even the RG Strike + IWSP is just additional runners for the IWSP

^ fuuuu!! I want! But we all were expecting bandai to milk the mold lol.. But still, damn it, I WANT! drool.gif but i'm wondering about that paint apps.. Like on the shield.. Bigass stickers, no doubt sad.gif

Bandai probably give waterslides for those

QUOTE(Lester1987 @ Jan 18 2013, 10:54 AM)
i screwed up my MG Destiny extreme blast mode. i tried to apply the flat top coat, then after a while, i see the whole unit turning white (like kena a lot of snow) and the white is not balance. I dont know what to do and panic, tried to wash those white area with thinner. it can come off then i start to become lazy and pour thinner into a pail, and soak the whole gundam it is and take it out. now almost all those plastic joins are breaking off. cry.gif. I think i have to buy a new unit because buying parts for all those joins won't be cheap..

-don't spray after rain, on cold weather, or during night
-warm up and shake well the can
-spray about 20-30cm away
-spray in short burst, not spray continuously
-spray multiple thin layers

if want to remove paint, either use sandpaper or use hobby grade thinner, or use Mr. Paint Remover

because i see tutorials at youtube, those fella just put the whole kit in the spray booth and just spray. last time  spray my exia with gloss coat, i pray part by part no problem.
haiz..... $124SGD fly just like that.....

you can spray whole kit, but then you can't change the pose already
and that only apply to gloss or semi-gloss coat, flat coat is more unforgiving icon_idea.gif

Dose ppl apply top cot for titanium finish kit?

usually no, and it's not recommended, because most of the time it'll take away the metallic look even if you used gloss
