email samuel to ask for which decals u want
payment by paypal
n dont worry about shipping, posting a sheet of paper ain't gonna cost a bomb tongue.gif
MG RX-78-2 2.0 is definitely one of the easiest kit out there with awesome tech  thumbup.gif
great tech doesn't mean easy, nor not fragile whistling.gif
easy build but awesome kit  thumbup.gif
most of the time the shipping cost gonna kill u lol
u can buy from local sellers too, the main point is to look for China made compressor & AB, not those branded ones tongue.gif

hmm..so far i go through garage sales..some of it cost at least 200 ++ .. yawn.gif yawn.gif

go mgs2u
and search portable compressor + Taiwan AB kit 0.3mm
this gonna cost you at least about RM180-200

if the price you still complain, consider how much you spend on this hobby VS this minimum AB set cost
it wont hurt to spend a bit on tools and paints

plus the good AB with compressor tank cost about RM500-700,
this is affordable price for basic AB

ya, i will go through about

QUOTE(General_Nic @ Apr 8 2014, 10:30 PM)
you mean those mini/turtle compressor types? then yes it'll be cheaper from China, only downside is no warranty
mini/turtle compressor + basic AB set is about RMB180, which is roughly RM100, with shipping estimate 1 kg, about rm13

I was assuming you were saying the cylinder piston type compressor, which are hefty in weight, that'll set you back a few kilos in shipping
*
ya..those turtle compressor ...actually i wan to ask. what is the different between those mini compressor and the cylinder piston type ?
so far i know the turtle compressor will easy overload and need cool down

Dont listen to them whistling.gif sinanju is damn fun to build compared to zakus brows.gif when it comes to mono eyes.. sinanju and sazabi > zaku whistling.gif
*
for me, sazabi and sinanju is already advanced level, not suit for beginner like me..
dun mad on me...i just a newbie..

OOB means out of box.. meaning no paint or modding.. just build and decal using what is provided in the box
Never had the problem either.. plus.. if u feel so inclined, 3rd party companies have released a metal waist peg for sinanju if u find yours in need of replacing
*
ic, so far i never try about painting, still thinking wan hantam AB set. sweat.gif

no.

while its medium in terms of complexity and difficulties. To make it look like that in the pic require painting, particularly the gold trim. Since u r a newbie dont go for such kit. Not to mention its expensive, newbie mistake is bound to happen and when u made such mistake on expensive kit u'll cry. Oh and u mention first edition, I assume its the ver ka Sinanju, well its not in production anymore + its waist joint is a massive flaw. U shouldnt get the ver ka, not that u could but even if u could, dont. The OVA is the better version.

start of with something simple and relatively cheap, when u commit newbie mistake its not gonna hurt too much.
*
totally agree with bro ur points, if any happen on ur gunpla, u will cry on it, beside, just like i say, for me its already in advanced level, i still suggestion go on HG first then go for MG.
