QUOTE(TheAdmiral @ Feb 14 2013, 10:53 AM) generally nobody care bout those. Its so small, completely hidden inside the cockpit that u hardly left open and even if u did u may not c it due to lighting. The only ppl i c doing it r professional builder (as in those hired by Bandai to assemble model for them for their photoshot) and ppl hu hav nothing else to do. So noone here bothered to paint the pilot....   When I buy my 1st MG, I saw the fully painted pilot on the box and I though it was painted, but disappointed! Btw, any GP01 fan here? I duno why but I still feel like this very old kit is the nicest! |

QUOTE(bazlit @ Feb 14 2013, 04:03 PM) I actually throw the cockpit pilot away How much is the GP01 PG??  . I keep the standing pilot though just for scale if someone asks 'how big is this in real life?'.Yup. I love the GP01. Getting the PG soon. Must clear my current backlog before starting that. Cost a bomb??  |

QUOTE(rihuhs @ Feb 18 2013, 11:31 AM) 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 Glad to hear that, actually I ordered GP01 but Gundam.my mistaken and posted this to me instead and speaking of which, I just recently built MG RX-78-2 v1.5 too   .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..... |

QUOTE(bazlit @ Feb 18 2013, 02:21 PM) Don't have A1 but I do have C1. Biggest gunpla regret ever. I think I must have had a bad mold batch. The panel lines was barely visible on some parts and the hip joint just would not hold together. I faced the same problem. After assembled, I accidentally drop it and it was damn hard to pull up the head and let it stay... SO this kit must handle with care, once drop then shit happens....   |

I think I'm much more worst then u all. Started work also dun dare to buy Gundam kits coz got other commitment. Now salary up a little then only dare to buy more kits.
Started with 2 AG models then 3 HG and finally MG kits and no turning back. Regardless of how we get the kits, most importantly is we share the passion here........ |
