how long do u guys need to assemble a HG or NG model? I am doing my first ever model (NG 1/100), and damn, it takes so long.. Had done for around 6 hours, and only the body, head and arm part is done..

What about MG duration? Planning to jump to MG once this NG done.. Any nice/cheap MG for recommendation?
*
HG: 2-3 hours if I feel like it, 2-3 weeks if I'm lazy
MG: 2-3 days >> half a year whistling.gif

those new seed MG seems like a good choice to start with nod.gif

*
you will be given like some sort of ticket & if u want u get to buy those P-bandai exclusives
same like buying other P-bandai but a bit more difficult like a lucky draw. Too much hassle if u ask me laugh.gif
corrrect me if I'm wrong though, they also did a similar thing before for the SHF line

curious how big hands and fingers can one get too big for gunplas?

I measure mine  for reference  tongue.gif

Right hand from center finger to end of palm about 16cm

width palm (stretch wide to thumb finger) about 15cm

fingers about 7-8cm length, width about 1.5cm per fingers

I assemble SDs/HGs and few MGs and few 1/60s no problem, panel lining also ok.

zero RG/PG yet so far  tongue.gif

I actually meassured my hands after reading this laugh.gif laugh.gif
I don't think having big hands can be much problem assembling a gunpla

Is it that bad.. not detailed like most MG?
it looks like a zeta/ transformable flight MS type..

like mushy said, it mostly focused on the aesthetic. It lacks the inner frame of the typical MG so a bit less solid
but overall from what I can see it is a nice kit. Panel line is plenty

it is from the zeta series, an upgraded version of the MKII like Zeta icon_rolleyes.gif

finally bought RG gundam astraea type F on CNY eve...
to my surprise, Gamers Arena has also restock MG Gundam Unicorn...

half way assembling MG Gundam Unicorn, but the "transformation" to destroy mode is not "smooth"...
like the knee part...kinda hard to keep the red psycho frame in the place it should...
kinda worry that it was due to my assembly skill...
sad.gif

P/S: i think i might need to some advice here...i didnt do any "dry transfer" decal before as i'm not really confident in doing it...
usually i just do the stickers...
how do many sifu here do the decal? i can cut the dry transfer decal using the blade, it is holding the decal in place...
i saw some youtube videos but i would like some additional opinions / advice / suggestions...
*
MG unicorn is quite fragile due to the transformation

dry transfer decals isn't that hard. For easier usage, u can use sellotape to temporarily hold them in place more securely and scratch using coin. whistling.gif
though the process is a bit hassle, it is quite easy to learn compared to water slide

MG Unicorn knee is notorious for being crappy, the damn psycho frame has nothing to latch onto. Best way is for u to remove the back calf thruster and shove something long inside to hold up the psycho frame while u fiddle around with the knee cap till the damn thing stays in place. And even when it did a slight nudge will knock it out of place, so my advise is just glue the damn thing and be done with it.

All Unicorns r the same. Heck if anything FAU is even worse due to all the extra weight.

pretty much the reason why I didn't change my Banshee pose since day 1 laugh.gif
FAU is pretty much a brick, not much pose can be done

GN Drive LED casing included
though still need to get LED part

easy fix , 3rd party selling it plus got in red color
pair with this MG will be a good combination

edited: cant confirmed can work with Dark Matter back pack
waiting someone to test it, I'm pretty much sold with this kit
*
probably can attach but I doubt the light can pass through though
so most likely will only work without the back pack

Hm.....what grade it is then since its hollow parts,sticker from SD....SHG?

cant imagine if this came out MG, how is the SD gonna look like  sweat.gif  Nxedge Grade for MG?

this is probably one of those kits which we will never see as a MG whistling.gif
frankly speaking I doubt any GBFT suits will make it to MG anytime soon
