yup yup..hehe even if eat roti i dun mind spending on something i like
the same concept when u spending on girls tongue.gif
luckily i only play MG..or else i think really die la continue this hobby keke
ya sometimes really pain when think about the money spent ...but actually my heart ache more when i screw up a good MG shocking.gif or spend on more unnecessary stuff
the best part is the excitement before building a kit, i really love getting boxes high high rclxm9.gif

I'm a completely noob on gundam here..just got addicted after i've build my first gundam.....just have a question about painting on gundam models. Is there any cheap solution on painting them? like acrylics paints...is it neccessary must go for those Tamiya's paint? Because I found those normal acrylic paints from those art shops, is it ok to use them as the price is very cheap compared to those tamiya's paint.

did u guys check out xl forum, they are about to sell MG Gundam Base Control Room, u can buy many many then combining it. Too bad, even 1 part i think is cost too much
*
just saw those parts, wow insane project bandai is doing
the price of one part alone is as much as a MG!
MOD sounds very good for diorama players, but the price , really need to think twice blush.gif

Hey have a look at the R-GUN tat is going to be released!!!

http://www.geocities.jp/hetare_d_max/gallery-Koto_R-1.html

Those 2 pistol look way better than the Strike Noir gun!!!
*
its not R-GUN...its R1 !!!
a popular SRW OG character flex.gif
and its already released in local shops!
getting mine soon rclxms.gif
and R2 is coming out next month too drool.gif

i guess i stop going for recent MG gundams first, too expensive and very unpredictable release...not surprised if strike noir v2.0 come out the next month later blink.gif
something tells me not to be guinea pig yet laugh.gif (infact...alot more MG to assemble.... )

kct did u say SRX parts? the head u mean? are you hinting..its transformable? drool.gif

Hey guys, I need help. I broke the white torso piece for my MG Strike Freedom (butterfingers I know, tiring day in office but was so anxious) and I really want to know if it is possible, anyway, anyhow, to get a replacement from the factory or whatever. The kit is a gift and it pains to see the torso scarred  cry.gif

My only thought now is getting another kit next month, replacing the torso piece with the new one, and then experimenting with coloring the 2nd kit. Advice appreciated  sweat.gif
*
maybe u can snap a pic of how broken the piece is?
maybe, just maybe someone around has extra parts that is suitable for the replacement...any good souls helping this guy? tongue.gif
well i doubt u can find the helps here..try zero g forum, usually got more parts trading there
u can get replacement from factory but u need to order from japan for the complete sprue set, its usually not cheap ordering parts like this
it sounds like u broke it..into half, still can save it i believe, need some fix skills..coz torso piece is not small , so the piece should still remain usable

ouch..big crack...yea but i say u are lucky coz that kind of part still can fix like fyire suggested..dont rush man...go steady ~
the crack not very clear to me , it looks like a big seam line with my old eyes blink.gif putty and paints is normally what i do
now good luck coz this is a good chance to learn fixing it, the adventure u learn cost more than money can buy tongue.gif , end up u will love the kit more rclxms.gif
this kit has sentimentel value to you ? sweat.gif good..show us the work when you are done notworthy.gif

Provided that they have a R-2 Powered and a R-3 Powered of the same scale (1/144) to go with it...

Of course, Kotobukiya need to make more 1/100s to be good...
*
i believe the upcoming R2 powered is 1/144 too...but being same scale doesn't mean it will be transformable
the SRX transformation is a mystery to me...coz i haven't seen them actually *combined* together with that funny head unsure.gif
btw anyone got huckebein 1/100? the price of SRW's 1/100 is damn expensive though...
