the 25 is more futuristic, but nothing beats the classics.  brows.gif

plus, this is probably the best vf-1 kit that ever existed thus far. i'm a cheapskate, i'd rather not waste money on yamato's overpriced stuff. sweat.gif

I also like the classic, actually I liked all the valkyrie design except ones from macross 7 (because I didn't like the series laugh.gif ). But for the vf-1, I prefer to get 3 un-transformable model (one in each mode) since the transformation isn't that nice imo. nod.gif

buy both ahahaha.. or more.. RG are really nice..
i chose freedom over destiny is just personal preference..
coz i hate the destiny pilot =x

Same with me too...but the mecha is quite nice, sharp. One of the reason why people dislike Shin is because of GOD KIRA laugh.gif

...now I will go to hobbies&collectible subforum. whistling.gif

isn't that quite dangerous to handle chloroform? won't it be easier to just use plastic cement?

Maybe you can try those '502' glue from hardware shop. Rm2 per bottle that looks like Eye-mo.

Just started watching Gundam Seed Remaster and noticed perfect Strike during the mid commercial break sequence. Bandai really good at poisoning people....

May you enjoy the show, it have tons of remaster battle scene.

Great. Didn't expect new scene. But I'm a bit disappointed because the audio only 2.0, hooping for 5.1.

really shld be in your collection  nod.gif

remembered someone posted here asking for Gundams that is a 'must-have' for Gunpla collections, other that grand-daddy itself, i must say the Nu ver ka is definitely a must-have!!!

Which grand-daddy gundam? My collection start with the wing series... don't have older model.

Guys, need more helps. After searching around, I found out that:

Freedom RG - RM90+
Freedom MG - RM120+

Since the difference is just around RM50, would MG be a better buy?

since the MG is a very old kit(almost 10 years old), the only thing it excels over RG is the size/scale
in terms of details, parts separation, hands, the RG wins hands down

Never would have thought of this....thanks for the info.

It look damn awesome but sad thing is those American damn hate this design, they want the TV Ver instead of this lol. Screw all Katoki haters, it is time to move forward, forget your old school design.

I never compared anime with model kits, or who is the designer, as long as its looks good, I'll get it (if got budget laugh.gif ).

this.. i absolutely love what katoki has done with the design, and it still stays true to the wing zero i have always known and loved.. in essence, that is what is called a great design.. don't know why those purists cannot seem to see that.. they probably just want something to whine and complain about.. keep your HG 1/100 Epyons and Wing TVs then whistling.gif i know i'm getting this new MG
*
I don't mind if the design change a bit, as long as I can recognized it at first glance. nod.gif

Nice. Mind if I'm asking, why you didn't choose the RG Aile + RG Skygrasper? I thought RG got better quality? nod.gif

HG is cheaper of course biggrin.gif
& HG play with paint won't hurt so much.
next one thinking of getting RG

But if RG, got skygrasper. I'm planning to make Perfect Strike (RG) also in the future. Now, will get RG Freedom and RG Justice first.

well it depends on what you want smile.gif
besides, the HG ver. got extended battery pack (notice at the back)
& what's with seed series MS, most of them equip big ass backpack / equipment biggrin.gif

Didn't noticed the backpack until you pointed it out.

I like large backpack/armor/weapon/wing. Make them looks cool.
