QUOTE(sphiroth @ Jul 30 2013, 09:54 AM) But then, it make a new gundam recognizable. I means that even at first glance, people can realized, 'hey, its new gundam', not transformers, SRW etc. Which is good for marketing. Its good for manufacturing also. Sometimes paying homage to old model can be good also, such as Porsche 911. Looks almost the same since its first launch until today, and there even a 'greatest hit version' which they bash all the best feature on all 911 in one car. Porsche enthusiast also dislike newer 911 when Porsche decided to use newer electric power steering to replace the traditional hydraulic version. Just my 2 cent  I know what you want to say but talking too much about car here wasn't quite suitable, I personally felt a bit weird. QUOTE(sphiroth @ Jul 30 2013, 10:51 AM) Thats why imo Turn-A not really popular.  But turn A design was quite special.

QUOTE(onnylam @ Jul 31 2013, 08:54 PM) My advise: wait. It's not a special edition or an exclusive, so it will always be there for you, problem is your wallet can tahan or not. We still don't know if the Zulu will get a MG treatment, even if it does, will it be a dissapointment? If it is, you can always backtrack to the Doga version. My opinion.... Ya... this is exactly what he suppose to do.

QUOTE(Freedom1104 @ Aug 1 2013, 12:27 AM) well i do love this and the EW custom more than the original ALTRON/SHENLONG/NATAKU/ watever.... hahhaha I like this arm design, not really like the pincers on EW version. Shenlong still acceptable because the shield look not bad and I kinda like the colou scheme for it. This post has been edited by TheGreatBahamut: Aug 1 2013, 12:35 AM

QUOTE(dweeb203 @ Aug 1 2013, 02:19 PM) Just pick whatever you like as long as you have the budget. No point to keep asking here since everyone have their own preference, kit they like doesn't mean is your favorite, your favorite doesn't mean people will like it. Now you remind me of ah lim kid.

QUOTE(james83 @ Aug 1 2013, 03:00 PM) wah where u're staying? why have to purchase gunpla by poslaju?  LOL... most of time I also received my gunpla from poslaju because I purchase online. Online purchase was cheaper than I drive to shop which consume petrol, parking fee and also time.

QUOTE(dweeb203 @ Aug 1 2013, 04:03 PM) sorry , what i mean is, i'm asking for the flaw of each kit, or is it recommended? If me, I will pick MG Jesta but wait I'm looking forward for MG Jesta Cannon so I didn't buy the current Jesta but don't know how long I can resist. You should check the review here because I couldn't judge since I don't have any of the kit you mentioned. MG Gelgoog 2.0MG JestaMG Geara Doga

QUOTE(nazrul90 @ Aug 2 2013, 05:08 PM) too expensive better buy rm5 mounting board and do this » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « Lamp still need money what... That one was fold-able, got four types of background, camera stand/holder, 2 lamps and also a bag to keep them all. So RM 100 is acceptable not too cheap, not too expensive.

QUOTE(TaurusOxford @ Aug 2 2013, 10:02 PM)  A dremel is my secret weapon. It's basically how I apply all the actual damage to the kit. There's still three steps though to get the effect I have: - Go over dremel'd area with silver Gundam marker and wipe off excess with a paper towel. - I apply black Gundam marker to a paintbrush and drybrush over the silver, making the damage stand out more and giving the uneven surface more detail - using a make-up sponge, I dab red iron oxide paint over the damage and the part in general, and wipe off excess with a paper towel. Nice, thanks for sharing the good tips there. Next time I will try it on my MG, now just need to find iron oxide paint or maybe brown paint.
