Grade battles are still a thing?

One absolute way of distinguishing which is 'conventionally better' between two kits is the amount of parts a kit has.

Maybe only old folk like me who did like to play super robot wars series before will appreciate the mecha during old days.

Already bought it but it's in the backlog list

007S for PG release, at least I guessed the series right, was expecting 00Q since Bandai was very tight lipped about it.

Guys if MG ver ka ship from japan use ems usually will be how much?

MG Full Armor Gundam ver ka is available from amiami, and will be re-release this month.

Or I can get from toypanic, faster and slightly cheaper, but how old is this kit? When is the last time this kit come out, got this kind of info or not?

You might want to call regular model kit shops if they have them in stock. Buying regular release kit from overseas is just not worth the trouble and money.

you mean never spray top coat from can or dont spray on gunpla?

my house and work area not airbrush friendly, even spray can a bit problematic also, house quite dusty as near main road
*
If you can't airbrush, can topcoat works just as good. It's just not economical as airbrushing. On the good side, you don't have to clean your airbrush.

Anyone here uses KKmoon airbrush compressor with tank?
*
KKMoon was my first airbrush compressor, without tank. It was just basically a generic model with the same specs as other 'brands'. It will do just fine for basic airbrushing.

I see, I'm currently using a shitty china made compressor and it doesn't have a tank or has enough output PSI. I relate this to my failure to achieve chrome mirror finish, do you think it's related?
*
For mirror chrome, you can achieve it better with chrome powder.

I tried cutting today, Im so bad at it I almost heavily deform a chest piece lol managed to fix it by sanding. I've figured out how to sand them to remove the white dot. But the scratch and dullness cant be avoid. Use some nail polish block to bring back the shine.
*
The purpose of sanding is to prep it for paint. If you're not going to paint it, there's very little legit reason to sand the pieces.

i just failed my first time paint brushing, i use mr.color with normal thinner and acetone . Anyone got a tips to share ?
*
Use zippo lighter fluid, for ratio you need trial and error.

If you're still not confident about mixture ratio (honestly, mistakes are the most effective way to learn), try Valejo air paint, it's already prethinned and ready for airbrushing.

I bought a can of mr.hobby topcoat, but our country condition just doesnt permit it. With humidity over 70% all year long and constantly raining. Do u guys just go with it and hope frostng dont happen or wait for drought? If i spray then quickly use hairdryer to dry it will it reduce risk of frosting?
*
Spray under hot sun at noon when there's no wind.

Any places around KL or PJ area have shop with good pricing? Planing to get a few Seed series model for dad and few 00 series for myself.

Good pricing - what is your benchmark? It Toys and Gamers Arena are cheaper or similar to online retailers.
