does this mean both cant hold their blaster properly?
*
more like it's hard to have it to hold properly
however, for Zeta's small rifle, it doesn't pose such a big problem

check for yourself smile.gif

yes but they do provide a peg to help hold the rifle
but slight movement might loosen it though especially when the back of the rifle keep hitting the elbow unsure.gif

Zeta Plus era MGs don't have pegs in their hands

QUOTE(Nawar @ Nov 11 2014, 11:22 PM)
is there a sazabi action base specifically created for like the sinanju stand comes with 2 tone color n decal?

will an action base hold the sazabi steadily over long period of time in floating stance?
*
answer to your first question, no

as for second question, which Sazabi did you mean?
time doesn't play a factor here
if an action base can support a kit, it will support indefinitely, it's not like it will loosen or sag over time lol
the question here is how stable it is

an Action Base 2 1 could support HGUC Sazabi just fine
however for MG Sazabi(both old and ver Ka), it can support it, but dangerously wobbly, I wouldn't risk it

Yeah his money biggrin.gif

But the expo prices this time are not bad, HG is roughly RM5-RM10 more and MG is RM10-RM20 more than outside, should be OK considering the hassle you have to go to Timesquare (if you live nearby) biggrin.gif
*
woah woah, RM5-10 extra for HGs? that expensive man

plus buying from local online sellers is still cheaper even with shipping costs included

If you mean PG Unicorn, I rather wait for someone to put up a review. Not gonna buy it at the time of release, so not hyping up.

If you mean RG Wing Zero, I'm disappointed that they did not bring it to the expo currently held at IPC.

like I mentioned before, my new policy is not to pre-order NORMAL release kits, it's not like it will 'sold out' in the future, just wait for re-stock whistling.gif

Hey guys,

I've decided to try to paint by hand brush. Are enamels good for hand brush?

And are enamel paint the same as aqueous paint?
*
enamels are good, acrylic would be more user friendly for first timer
just avoid lacquer for hand brush

actually Bandai kinda planned to drop the PG line already, but the demand for a PG Unicorn is so high that they continue

after Unicorn, I can't think of any main protagonist MS that would garner much demand from fans for a PG kit
the only ones with higher chances in my opinion are Sinanju, Nu, and Sazabi

PG ASTRAY isn't main protagonist but side protagonist, but look at PG ASTRAY details compare to Strike freedom ....
*
Astray Red Frame's pilot is the MAIN protagonist of it's story
plus, PG ARF reuse a lot of parts from PG Strike, and since it has a large fan base and high demand for it, hence Bandai made it

QUOTE(rihuhs @ Nov 20 2014, 02:35 PM)
00 Raiser on the hand was quite a special case, where the PG came after the HG, and only after that they come out with the MG
*
Wing Zero also came out with PG first before MG, and also ended up quite 'fail' whistling.gif

QUOTE(TheAdmiral @ Nov 20 2014, 02:38 PM)
Because the time and money put into developing a PG does not give quick ROI. Sure they can remake the granddaddy and yes it will sell well but not nearly as much as the cheaper yet equally intricate MG counterpart specifically because its not really as affordable to the general masses.

It is the inherent problem of PG, going bigger more details more parts more plastics = more money. Price point is still the biggest hurdle when it comes to PG sales and not every1 grows money from a tree. PG is not really profitable compare to HG, RG and MG which is why u dont c PG having a stable releases.
*
PG line isn't so profitable anymore until Bandai don't PLAN which MS to make into PG, instead PRESSURED by fans to make a MS into PG
I'm looking at you, Unicorn tongue.gif
