I'm hoping Bandai will start with OO Series for RG after this. Can't imagine how they will improve Exia and OO Raiser. rclxm9.gif

i feel like they'll pull a strike + skygrasper for the 00R.. RG 0Raiser + GN Sword III anyone? whistling.gif

^ i kind of doubt ARF will be in the RG SOON seeing as they're still happily milking the HG mold, which is a good mold, in it's own right, but since they seem happy with just that, the attention towards RG line would shift to other characters, no doubt

Only 1 thing I dont like about Build Strike; the backpack.
Look so off for me. Hope they'll come out with another backpack variation in the series later. thumbup.gif

For sure... build fighters is bandai's milking pot now.. plus build strike is the main MS of the show.. surely he'll get upgrades brows.gif

Hahaha.....I think more than that. For sure he'll come out with ANOTHER gundam. Just like SEED series when Kira swap from Strike to Freedom.  biggrin.gif

I feel that they won't just jump to another Gundam... since the series is centered on CUSTOMIZING! brows.gif

^ like i said before, i won't mind if they released RG Unicorn (Unicorn mode) and RG Unicorn (Destroy mode).. but as of right now, i think the HG is fantastic.. no need for an RG unless they can really WOW me

sucky luck, i accidentally broke my pg strike upper front biseps inner mechanism part...FML...that joint is something like a grab-kind claw thingy, and i broke it coz i push it too hard to grab the role doh.gif, now just have to deal with it...sigh

btw, regarding nubs removal, i watch tons of youtube video, and no luck on me. the white spot is always there...
method 1: sandpaper (spoil my plastic surface, scratch marks)
method 2: design knife (white spot still there, and sometimes causes indentation)
method 3: nail clipper (white spot still there, just that i can control better)

any other way to remove nubs mark completely? is it i have to resort to painting my gundam only then nubs mark can be covered?
*
method 2, but slowly.. make sure your knife is as sharp as possible, and follow the cut slowly so you can control and lessen the indentation, while not stressing the plastic to cause white marks

^ brushing is fine, use a fine tip brush and just match the color as closely as possible.. it's just to cover up the nub so it's much less obvious

as for gunpla prices, u won't find anywhere cheaper than places like times square.. other than online shops, sometimes may have offers, or if other people are selling tongue.gif

and you win some, u lose some, sure, some will be more expensive compared to the fair, but the fair also has some more expensive compared to the shops in times square.. always good to survey and know the market price, so you know right away when you're getting a good deal

Well the thing with Gunpla is, there's no one true shop that you can always rely on for variety, availability and price. You just have to do some searching to get the best deal. Time Machine (BTS) is known for cheaper prices, but they don't carry much units, at most 3-4. But I think many will agree with me that Gamers Arena is a good reference for market price, since they carry the most products and their prices are not disappointing.

Get online on Amazon, sometimes it's a lot cheaper there, if you can bear the waiting time.

err... not sure about the first one tongue.gif some can be quite pricey there at TM.. as for GA, reference for market prices are alright, but only for normal releases.. limited ones.... can say it's quite expensive there also tongue.gif slightly higher than what u can get from online sellers or maybe other places

So far I find their prices are generally cheaper compared to GA or TM, 3.0 for 146 (others 153), Sinanju OVA for 250ish, others 270 or something. But their units are limited.
Crossbone X3, what do you expect laugh.gif They need promotion for it.

i would expect crossbone ghost soon brows.gif please bandai.. AND DON'T MAKE IT EXCLUSIVE vmad.gif vmad.gif

You'd think they just would have waited for Crossbone to start airing to hype up the X2 and X3, so then they wouldn't HAVE to resort to exclusives.
*
one can only hope they'd come to their senses and 'reissue' them as HD versions or something along those lines

not only it's a disappointment that the Build Gundam MkII will be using the old HGUC MkII, the new design vents' yellow will be effing stickers

Okay la.. it shows how it look like if assembled by normal people tongue.gif

biased tongue.gif it might not appeal to a wider variety of people, only people who have been into the modelling world would know that that's easily fixed and will not affect the final product to that degree

the kind of same reason they don't use fat mannequins to sell clothes.. people won't buy tongue.gif
