To me OO 2nd was ok but the movie was not.
Story aside, the MS design was a let down.
I was hoping they'd used similar twin drive like OO for OOq. And i really disliked tiera's, they should have made the second unit's streamlined to the main unit.

Hmm, does the Gunpla expo sells kits similar to the price sold in Gamers Arena ?
If so, might drop by for look see look see.
Kinda interested in 1/144 RX 78-2 , plus might snag some panel lining pens. biggrin.gif

And oh guys, wanna ask something which panel lining do you guys use normally.
I did some research on youtube saw the 'new' pen - Pour Type Wash. Is this good as compared to the normal one ?

The pour type is easier to use on a smooth surface. Just make sure you clean the excess ink ASAP.

GA might have better pricing but depends on your location. The price is acceptable

Well, generally a bit more expensive than hobby shop price, but not to the crazy level of retail prices at Toys r Us or hypermarkets. Still worth it to buy there if hobby shops are far from your home and the IPC is near. For an HG, we are talking about RM5-RM10 more expensive.

The pour pen is very useful for RG, I like it very much smile.gif Although it dries faster, a hard rub with your thumb will usually do the job to clean the excess ink. Or just use zippo.

Still one of the best designs in my opinion, I'm sure others agree too. It looks very slick. If you don't really put your kit in action pose, by all means please get it. It already looks great in standing pose, just like its brother Unicorn. But that's just it, the hands are weak, the funnel joints would fumble easily.

That's OOB build, of course you can always strengthen the wrists and funnel joints using hard glue, blu tack and double sided tape.

I once tried using zippo but no effect. How do you use it?
I end up using a rubber eraser.

First of all I don't use it very much, just a light touch or tap. If thumb rubbing doesn't work (but it does, most of the time), wipe the area with water first, wipe it dry, then wip with zippo. So far I've never faced with unreasable pour ink.

Totally dig the Origin RX-78 MG, one of the better looking RX variants aside from OYW version. Hopefully the decals is water slide or dry transfer

well at least it got the momentum up for a season which i think already commendable unlike g recon that gets you always thinking throughout the whole season...(get the children baffled and adults abandon it coz no time...) but i do agree on the movie flower blossom part a bit too far fetch...

if you watch the evolve clip you will like it even better, seriously i have one on my shelf pending to build and having hard time on customization concept construction, the build design and color scheme is really the best so far, any changes makes it imperfect from my point of view and i have research online on the other customization still not one that tops the ori.

so just go ahead and get satisfied...

Prices at EXPO is more expensive compared to Gamers Arena by RM5 to RM15.
Even during litt tak warehouse sale the prices are more expensive.
Only EXPO version gunpla are worth buying.

From my experience Litt Tak sales person don't have any idea about panel lining pens or paints.
And they don't sell it at expo.

U better off buying it from gamers arena or IWC.

Royalties, licenses, R&D costs.

Bootlegs don't cover those.

Gundam Markers are not made by Bandai, thus Litttak do not carry this officially. There are markers sold at th expo, but I think it's more of a side business by the staffs.
