samuel decals is nice but usually don't come with the number reference
taiwan one has the number but quality vary
of cos if the original is water slide it is a ++ bonus
hope they don't scrap the idea about ver.ka been water slide
well if the normal release does not feature waterslide and the premium give all the missile pods + effect + water slide guess i will get that set too

i think similar to patlabor movie ver, some kind of foldable foil

Unfortunately, all non Bandai decals are crap. Tons of spelling mistakes, and I would be embarrassed to have such mistakes on the kits.

Some 3rd party is nice, I notice Bandai Water slide are a little thicker so u will see the edge upclose, tried with mark softer still quite visible
Anyway just a question, there's a few version of freedom 2.0 right?

Regular Freedom 2.0
P-Bandai Effect part + water slide
P-Bandai Freedom 2.0 Special Coating + Effect Part + Water slide?

3 releases?

Yep, that's it I think.

you are correct but from what I know based on the newsfeed before, the water slide from special coating has more marking than the water slide included in the stand-alone p-bandai effect part.

From

It looks like there's additional water slides from the P-Bandai effects kit.

I thought it was the special coating that has the additional water slides (it also comes with the effects kit).

Now I'm not so sure, gotta wait to see.

All? Not all 3rd party decal are crap

Most of the water slide are just remake from Bandai decal, either they upscale or downscale the decal or just straight copy

Bandai also sometime dont make good marking either, the design for PG Unicorn is so damn bad
I rather design the decal by myself or upscale the decal from MG Unicorn ver Ka

P-Bandai Freedom both got Water slide decal. No need to be confused. 3rd party decal, some are good. Bandai on the record does not really provide quality water slide decal, you will know when you handle other water slide from different brand.

reprinted/copied decal from China though are mostly garbage.

You guys got any sources for good decals?

go buy bandai decal

So cheap, will wait for Char and Amuro CCA version
Thinking to buy IBO version but topless bust isnt my thing

Great stuff, too bad not all the decals are in great shape. Needed a few but the last batch got in were all pretty bad.
Let's see what pops in this time.

masih ada 6 kotak instock....so planing to get it end of the year.

my priority is to get the arch angel ship.

btw, thank for the link.

Just done applying the foot decals on the 1/144 RG Red Frame Astray as it tough as crap. I think i have cock-eye now -.-

Pbandai Babartos all form.
2 Body (1 to 4 forms and 5, 6 form) and all parts



Will be more interested if package included all 6 body..

Good job. Get some rest. No need to over strain your eyes. Take your time. Applying decals is different than painting. Those decals will still stay the same even if you apply them over a months time.

I think the Freedom 2.0 will be a platform to design MG Barbatos, since NG1/100 already provide a pretty good mechanism, the MG probably more exaggerate and well detailed like Freemdom 2.0, new standard for MG perhaps
