Bling number 2  Spore does sell gundams slightly cheaper, not always though... but you have to know where to find them. |

QUOTE(boyarque @ Jan 3 2007, 10:40 AM) Hmm...maybe we should recommend to Pak Lah to subsidize all model kits since it could promote inter-racial understanding and prosperity..... Yeah man... better spend money on harmless modelling hobby than doing mat-rempit stunts   Anyway... any news on upcoming MGs besides Full Cross and hi-Nu? |

QUOTE(subimpact @ Jan 4 2007, 07:11 PM) hi guys again Wah.... Strike fan eh? i just got my self strike gundam + IWSP, Strike Rouge, Aile Strike Gundam and Strike Freedom .... im pretty satisfied with Strike Gundam + IWSP but i just need to ask this noob question ... how do i clean of those white markings after trimming the excess plastic which i trim already ?coz the model doesnt look nice wif all those white marking...  extra bits of plastic.... chop it off with your hobby/pen knife... if you have a clean cut the surface should already be quite smooth. If you still want it to be smoother, sand it. However, sanding is easy for white surfaces, yet a bit of a problem for coloured parts because it would leave scratch marks. For black or dark blue parts (eg Titans blue), the panel lining marker could be used to fill in the white parts left over by chopping the plastic bits. Look back a few pages for tips on wet-sanding... I'm sure it was mentioned by some of the members before. Of course, these are easy methods for simple effort. If you want to paint your kit, just sand it till the whole thing is smooth, prime it and spray... meanwhile... another proof that extra finish versions are crap, not forgetting freaking expensive... http://img177.imageshack.us/my.php?image=dsc00473mx6.jpg This post has been edited by StarGhazzer: Jan 4 2007, 07:46 PM |

QUOTE(young_soul @ Jan 4 2007, 11:31 PM) Blue Astray got extra finish version? Yup... but as with other extra finish kits, it doesn't get much publicity. Meh to extra finish kits... QUOTE(subimpact @ Jan 5 2007, 02:38 AM) i feel kinda regretted getting all strike version due to its similarity of its chasis Same chassis... you think car meh ? hmmm... anyway gonna upload some noob posing since its my first time on gunpla stuff ... oh ya is there any local website which somesorta like a community for gundam models ?? like tips and tricks and so on.... it would be cool if we can like keep all the good guidance and tips in 1 page or something for noobs like me to refer to hehe... kinda lost when browsing over 90++ post @_@ Sentinel... Super huge MG with big ass gun... Local website... best would beZero_G... lots of masters in there... I agree with the idea of putting the modelling tips and also information about modelling shops in the first page. This way, new members would find it easier to refer instead of browsing through so many pages. |

QUOTE(Fasap @ Jan 6 2007, 08:17 PM) and here's a rough sketch of the Upcoming GUNDAM UNICORN: You sketched that? Looks more like a GM with fancy accessories rather than a brand new gundam. Oh well, let's wait for the full lineart.This post has been edited by StarGhazzer: Jan 7 2007, 01:07 AM |

QUOTE(hokuan @ Jan 9 2007, 09:42 PM) Guys..Have u all head that litt tak is going to increase 5% on gundam price? What the hell lah.... they are already selling stuff at sky high prices... RM249 for 3500 yen kit, and now still want to increase price? The more they charge unreasonably, the more we should not buy from them. Not that we buy from them anyway...  Man... it's only plastic.... why charge so expensive? |

QUOTE(nlik @ Jan 10 2007, 09:46 AM) We all buy from the parallel importer,small shops. thus litt tak is losing sales. So since they can't sell low in numbers, they change strategy to sell less but more expensive. Well, if they are getting less sales, they should consider selling things at a lower price, and provide better service eg import special/rare items for customers, provide modelling services, more freebies and discounts if people buy in bulk etc. Hiking up the price when your sales is already in dismay is not going to help attract customers. QUOTE(boyarque @ Jan 10 2007, 09:33 AM) rakyat harus faham...kerajaan tidak lagi mampu menanggung subsidi Gundam yang semakin meningkat akibat ketidaktentuan ekonomi dunia... walaupun dengan kenaikan harga, harga Gundam negara kita masih ialah harga yang paling rendah dalam lingkungan Asia Tenggara...  penjimatan dari ini dapatlah kita gunakan untuk memperbaiki lagi koloni-koloni kita....sekian dimaklumkan.  Rakyat kita patut mengurangkan perbelanjaan Gundam dengan mengubahsuaikan cara-cara hidup and aktiviti masa lapang. NOT !! |

QUOTE(boyarque @ Jan 10 2007, 10:31 AM) mungkin pasal import kot...kita kenalah menyokong pembuat Gundam tempatan daripada serangan Gundam2 yang diimport...jadi, NAZA mungkin sedang menimbang untuk bergabung dengan Anaheim Electronics bagi pemindahan teknologi 'pscho-frame' ke pasaran tempatan.... Keluaran Gundam dari negara-negara asing tidak akan menjejaskan pihak pembuat Gundam tempatan. Kerajaan telah mengambil tindakan untuk mengenakan cukai impot khas sebanyak 300% terhadap Gundam yang dibawa masuk dari negara asing terutamanya Jepun.Kerajaan juga menetapkan insentif kepada NAZA untuk memilih pasangan-pasangan dan bahan asli tempatan bagi memajukan industri berat milik tempatan. Gundam yang dipasang dengan lebih 50% bahan asli keluaran tempatan akan dikecualikan cukai. Selain itu, Perusahaan Otomobil Negara (PROTON) juga berminat untuk meluaskan modal dalam pembinaaan and pemasangan Gundam. Antara syarikat yang dicadangkan untuk kerjasama ialah Strategic Naval Research Institute (SNRI) yang merupakan saingan Anaheim Electronics. Walaubagaimanapun, Menteri Perdagangan Antarabangsa berkata bahawa Proton tidak akan memberi kuasa pengurusan syarikat kepada SNRI untuk memastikan industri otomobil kita tetap dikuasai oleh rakyat bumiputera. Sekian. QUOTE(Foxngn @ Jan 10 2007, 08:40 PM) Maybe u can try to check it out at Graffiti Toys, last time i saw they sell it at RM132. Zeta 2 for RM 132? Dirt cheap for a 5K yen kit... Can't be... GT sells it in the region of RM 160+ if I'm not mistaken. Special offer perhaps? Stock clearance? If it's selling for RM 132 sure got people go sapu all...Oh yeah... Dengeki Hobby Taiwan out now... anyone bought it? |

QUOTE(300078 @ Jan 11 2007, 07:37 AM) U get the degenki with the gift or without the gift one? Haven't bought yet, but the issues available here are all bundled with the figurine. One thing I noticed though, Taiwan versions with gifts often sell for RM 18, but there's one stall selling the HongKong version for RM 15. After a month or two, older issues where nobody buys would probably drop their price to RM 12... So I think I might wait for it to drop, coz I really don't think that the half-naked figurine is worth RM 10 extra, just like the puny MSiA Hazel rifle Maybe won't get this issue either.... Really pok kai adi after buying router and burner QUOTE(kct-86 @ Jan 11 2007, 08:27 AM) RM165 IIRC, they still have like 6 to 7 there. I went there on Tuesday. Yeah... 5K yen Zeta 2 should be RM 165.... RM 132 sure kena sapu within hours. What's the issue of Dengeki about? The one with the beam rifle for MSiA Hazel? Latest issue of Taiwan Dengeki is the one with the naked skating Figurine... Hazel Rifle is the one which showcases F91. This post has been edited by StarGhazzer: Jan 11 2007, 10:46 AM |

QUOTE(300078 @ Jan 12 2007, 07:58 PM) Wowow the box art looks very geng!!! The color!!! Must get must get!!! Whoa... nice box, but FULL CLOTH? I thought it was Full Cross Then after i get this kit 2 months later they will release X-2 (different color of x-1 kai) or even x-3 (a bit different with equipment by boneframe the same)!!! Evil bandai Full Cloth sounds realy Engrish... And X2 might just be possible QUOTE(Fasap @ Jan 13 2007, 06:46 PM) Woot.. just went browsing to few book stalls.. and to my amazement.. the free 'naked' figure that comes free with the NOV issue DHM is MISSING!!!! 2-3 shops i went all were missing! also checked out Popular Bookstore.. they also got the figure MISSING!! and what grinds my bones is that the price... wait for it... is RM18!!!!!!??????????? without any freebees! WTFH?? Check with the counter... Popular usually removes the freebies from the magazine. You have to collect it separately from their information counter, at least it's like this at the Popular outlet that I usually visit. |

QUOTE(hokuan @ Jan 16 2007, 05:42 PM) Hahaha, what a waste of valuable plastic... Make so many different colored versions of RX78... Yet it's still using the old frame, not the highly movable OYW frame. Seriously not value for money. |

Ah... my bad, it is using the OYW frame....
But I agree with 0300078 that without additional frames, the extra pieces of armor are wasted. Unless you use them as spare parts for kit bashes. |

QUOTE(Foxngn @ Jan 17 2007, 09:01 PM) Because it is the 1st Gundam ever built, that's make it so famous. I think spraying only the mouths would be better. And paint some of the pipings and wires too, but not the whole thing. anyway, i got some opinion want to ask, u see the picture below is the rick dom leg, because i assemble the "rocket" booster part too early, before that i tot of just painting the booster mouth to silver metallic only, but i already attached the whole part, will it be nice if i spray the whole "rocket" booster to silver metallic ?
