I almost broke my RG exia at starting point...
The middle of the pic there you can see the stress mark.
This part need to be careful when snap fit it..

Here's my progress so far,

[attachmentid=3960537]

To be honest, I dislike the dark blue color separation on the GN drive there, lol

Only front for Exia sad.gif
But the circle part of the GN Drive there can move individually also smile.gif

And before assemble the legs, really need to loosen up the inner frame.
This new inner frame really tight sweat.gif

Bought it from Korea last week and plenty of stock there drool.gif

hmm... actually i find it a hassle to bring locally available gunpla back from overseas. damned boxes so unwieldy. gunpla prices from the specialty shops and local internet sellers quite reasonable wor.

instead of hunting for 'cheaper than malaysia' I prefer to hunt for limited items that are not quite readily available in malaysia basically the non bandai stuff or stuff like gft 7 eleven kits.

Seconded.. if i were to go overseas i'd hunt down all the limiteds for sure.. downside is its worth less if u dont keep the boxes so u have to find space for the box tongue.gif at least thats what i think.. limited kits should come with their limited looking boxes laugh.gif

What I did was clip out the pieces and throw away the box. Managed to fit the pieces of 4 big box MG into one big MG box.

I agree with Madmoz, too much hassle, wanna enjoy vacation without dragging boxes. Luckily local stores also often bring in exclusives, just have to be quick to pick them up... Live in Sabah

Really? I always hear about Sarawak Hobby or something like that, I thought Sarawak has better shops than Sabah. I get all my tools/supplies from 1 shop only, others mostly stock kits.
