QUOTE(XenoFr3ak @ Jan 31 2007, 07:43 AM) I got that gif from another Gunpla forum, pretty cool yea. Im a freedom and strike freedom and justice fan. I dunno why im not a destiny gundam fan .. Shin Asuka kinda weird Haha, actually i dun really care much bout pilots....I found Destiny kinda sucks, not coz it's being piloted by Shinn..it's coz of the Gundam doesn't seem powerful enuf...D flashy wing's burst r only a make up, hehe if Kira Yamato was piloting the Destiny .. then im a fan Yea, still waiting for my IJ, hope it will arrive today and ill take pic and post it here  MG news for April .. i dunno lor but im getting the Hi Nu Gundam which is coming out in Feb.  At d end of d day, i'm still with the simple design of SF n IJ Furthermore, d upgraded version of Freedom n Justice r still d most powerful throughout d whole series....Designs r simple, not bulky yet powerful....nicely done with the Gold n Silver joints.....  Bout Hi Nu, i still prefer the normal Nu Gundam but it would b better if the backpack has 2 sets of funnels (izit) juz like the SD Force's...One sided funnel's kinda wierd....

Maybe u'll need to realigned the beam on the right leg 1st before posing it again, hehe N why dun u get a 1/100 Destiny so u can pose the last fight scene of IJ vs Destiny where IJ cutted the arms n legs or Destiny |

QUOTE(300078 @ Jan 31 2007, 05:23 PM)  har... u mean SF and IJ looks plain and not bulky. To me i think they look too complicated. If u really want to said a mecha that is not bulky in CE era tat would be Astray Red Frame!!!talking of non bulky but most powerful i would vote for God Gundam! OWN Kira and Athrun badly even with their seed open!!! GOD Finger (they goes with SF and IJ head)  As for God Gundam, yes...it's arguably the best for close combat fighting Gundams...  That's y it's called God |

QUOTE(StarGhazzer @ Feb 2 2007, 09:34 AM) Well it's just a matter of using the Titans mould and pouring in the same plastic, so there shouldn't be a problem with the AEUG version. I've never own any NG 1/100, so dun really know if there r problems like tat Anyway, good job by BANDAI here to release an improved version of the MKII. At least they are improving on design flaws. CE lover loathes Astrays? The red, blue, and gold frames are so good-looking it could pwn most of GSD's uninspiring designs. Just to make things clear, Dreadnought is also an Astray according to Lowe (Astray X) while Delta Astray is a total joke. Anyway, from a gunpla point of view, the 1/100 Astrays have MG-like articulations although the joints are quite loose and fragile. Especially for the blue frame where the backpack is too bulky to be posed. My blue frame had too many freak accidents due to posing - Broke the right arm, broke the pegs of the palms, broke the orange part which holds the dagger... One last thing about Astrays... The torso is too small compared to the fat thighs. Not that it affects the articulation though. Oh yeah, the hole at the back of the torso for the backpack is too small and weak to support gigantic backpacks, hence affecting the model's ability to stand on it's own (unless you bend it slightly forward like a hunchback)... these are problems faced by my blue frame and my friend's Amatu. Only have 1 HG 1/100, tat's Deathscythe H-Custom...noticed almost d same thing....arms r weak, can even pose properly with the scythe...waist couldn't support the weight of the cloak (devil wings)....legs...same with the waist, weak... Any idea how to make enhance those parts? Sigh..that's why i'm waiting for the MG version...it might b able to generate some sales since many ppl fancy d design As for the design for Seed MSV etc...i hate Astray series from the first in Seed to d last...Only like SF, IJ, Legend, Providence, Akatsuki, Aegis n Sword Strike....I worshiped Freedom, muahahahah Juz fixed my Freedom yesterday....found out that d wings r like damn big...n it dwarfs my smaller God n F91...

QUOTE(nlik @ Feb 5 2007, 09:35 AM) Is the freedom clear color (expo) worth to buy? I think it was RM160. Wonder if it was really limited edition and can't get it anymore once sold out? Ask Edison, it's like hell way lower than tat I got mine from him If u like Freedom as much as i do, then u can go ahead n get it....it's awesome  U can check out mine in page 7 (poor quality pics la) This post has been edited by hitsugayat10: Feb 5 2007, 09:54 AM |

QUOTE(Ah WanG @ Feb 5 2007, 10:29 AM) hitsugayat10 u own SD gundams rite... SD series need to paint like those 1/100 series or not? U'll need lotsa paintings compared to those of 1/100...but for the newer versions of SD, it's getting better compared to the older versions....It's better if u have airbrush....for those hard to reach areas, i suggest that u use hand brush I'm using gundam markers for those, pretty hard but ok so far This post has been edited by hitsugayat10: Feb 5 2007, 10:37 AM |

Holy cow, a MG Akatsuki?
Izit real coz in d previous discussion n according to the Gunpla book, it's NG 1/100.... USJprince: Bout BB/SD collections, it's pretty rare....U can try all d shops in BTS though... I collect SDs as well, having troubles finding those..... Normal SD will cost u RM20-30... Those with bling bling armors will cost u more, some up to RM99 especially d Musha series... BTW, Edison's selling some SDs too....U can check with him |

QUOTE(zio @ Feb 5 2007, 05:50 PM) March release stated at the site. Price is 6175 yen. Oh, u reminded me when u talk bout the price...It's only 6175yen, s probability of it being a NG 1/100's damn high.... If u check the coated version MG Freedom, it's 8000yen compared to the normal version of 3800yen... N since Akatsuki's the bling bling version type, it should cost more than a MG Hyakushiki n Coated Freedom if it's a MG.... At least 8000yen.... U should know if u've a normal HG 1/144 Akatsuki which's priced at 170-180% compared to a normal CE series....I bought my Akatsuki Oowashi at RM80 (at Grafitti)...n that's d same price as my F91  So, u can tell tat, d one in the site is definately a mistake by posting it in a MG category.... It's juz my point of view though  XenoFre3ak: There's no such Gundam as MG infnite Justice...I'm waiting for that too....nly HG 1/144 n NG 1/100 are available....Not even a SD, i wanted the SD version as well This post has been edited by hitsugayat10: Feb 5 2007, 06:01 PM |

QUOTE(jasonlky @ Feb 6 2007, 02:52 PM) Anyone belives Bandai is stealing money from us raise your hands.... Burning a hole in my wallet is an understatement, more like punching a hole using pneumatic sledgehammer. Thas said what will we do without out kits. U wanna know d price?With the wide range of prices being thrown about for kits... what would be a reasonable cost for: 1. PG Strike Rouge + Sky Grasper (how much in yen?) 2. PG GAT-X105 Strike Gundam (14,000yen) 3. PG MSZ-006 Z Gundam (20,000yen) 4. PG Wing Gundam Zero Custom (how much in Yen) Dunno where to start bargaining oso. I see that the practice is to convert from prices in Japan. Does anyone know the Japanese prices for the Strike rouge and Wing Zero. Also has anyone seen these kits recently, which shop and at what prices. Check this site then http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/list/680/0/1 n www.dalong.net for assembled versions... USJprince: U can get SD gundams from Jusco if u dun mind bout d price, RM26.90-50.00++++ This post has been edited by hitsugayat10: Feb 6 2007, 04:13 PM |
