between Freedom, Justice & Zeta & Destiny, which has the most part to build?
Ima left wings & decals for WIP Freedom. its taking my toll by getting up at 3.30am to watch dota TI3 n build at the same time to fill up my hand. rclxub.gif

Between freedom and justice, justice is much more fun to built.

My first gundam anime is the endless waltz ova. As a result, my first kit is a hg wing zero. Then started collecting all the wing series kit, but only can afford hg. My first 1/100 is astray blue frame, and first MG is wing zero ver ka.

At that time no money to buy gundam marker, so use any marker I can find (permanent/transparency/whiteboard...)

there r multiple method to achieve glow in the dark, 2 of the most common is by charging and non charging.

Charging required the phosphor to be expose to light to be "charge" 1st and then it will glow in the dark for 10 minute to an hour. Glow dimly, u'll almost wont see it unless in total darkness and wont last long anyway. These is probably not what u usually c on ur watches and stuff.

Another is non charging, glow brightly, last forever BUT this 1 is made with addition of some radioactive material to the phosphor. Watches usually uses these. U dare to cut it out from sprue???? Especially in this hobby where sanding and cutting leaves tons of small particle in the air and be inhale regularly by modellers, gd luck enjoy ur radioactive  poisoning buddy.

I actually referring to those normal glow in the dark found in children toys, and it's not on sprue/runner, ready made.

How about certain materials that glow under certain lighting? Like how blood illuminates under UV inm...

Unicorn and banshee psycho-frame do have those if I'm not mistaken.
Or you could refer to their robot damashii version with those black light. The RD cost a bomb

whistling.gif wut.. wing kits are short, and not too pricey, i think... 5000yen.. about 180.. think fair la laugh.gif

If above 150 I already consider expensive...

Btw, wing series pilot seldom wears pilot suits. Heero yui wears singlet only in space.

their cockpit gt BMW heater chair and massager. haha no need pakai pilot suits. one more thing if you all dint notice. gundam in wing series never went out of energy. haha

I loved how Treize explain why gundam are made in human shape, to make people remember that htere is still human pilot inside, not just weapon thumbup.gif

And why each gundam got self detonation device, nod.gif

EW version gundam mostly don't have shield...when I watched other gundam series after that, felt a bit weird.
