Most expensive plastic.model kit than metal build and some pg model kit with just rgb effect.

Any kit that is easy for beginner that comes with colour? Preferably plug and play like those small (chibi) version

Entry Grade RX-78-2 Rm26 - Rm30.
The stand alone version without weapon and shield will be put this Dec at Rm22.

HGUC RX-78-2 Gundam (Revive) Rm38 - Rm40

Doesn't make sense to compare Metal Build. It is not even a plastic model kit and not even from Bandai Hobby Division.

Also the Gundarium Alloy 1/144 RX-78-2 is the most expensive kit so far. Cost about 220,000 yen.

Or its limited choices for entry level?

U oso can try for non-gundam gunpla like HaroPla, Bearguy, or gunpla SD version.

You can try these categories:

https://www.gundam.my/result-display.php?typeid=2&grade=17

Thanks, prefer gundam though. SD version almost done all from the list below.

Thanks for the recommendation. SD version I think done almost all in the link.
Prefer something like RX-78-2. Just that any other model other than RX-78-2 thats plug and play ?

This week in Gunpla and Plamo!! The upcoming ironman kit looks good!

Thanks for the recommendations!
Just wondering, where do you folks get your gunpla tools from with best price?
Planning to get some nipper(any recommendation? Thinking Tamiya or Godhand), panel liner, x-acto hobby knife, sandpaper etc

Frankly speaking, i like to buy from shops that gives the best SERVICE. I like to get recommendations/advices (on especially tools) and honest with me ( what tools/kits i should not waste my money and time on). If you want cheap , just buy from toypanic.com la...free delivery to your house

Depending on your location, my few favourite stores are

1) The Hobby Store
2) Angel Trend Trading

I think you're the guy who runs the awesometoys youtube channel right? I think I've seen you guys recording a video with azrulhazimin at Angel Trend's shop. How's the youtube scene for the hobby?

What would your advice be for first set of tools?
Dont plan to do painting, maybe just panel lining and topcoat

Yes sir
The Youtube scene is tough, maybe bcos of my face lol


If you are beginner

1) good pair of nipper
2) Olaf knife
3) A2 size cutting mat
4) Tamiya panel line paint ( brown or black, see what you like )
5) Zippo thinner to clean up panel lining mess
6) Top coat ( mr hobby )

This shop is in kota damansara if you live nearby you can check it out. I like their hobbymio products selection, not many shop carry. I just bought the big A2 cutting mat from them also

From the Iron man Box, I see that it is product of Morstorm or Eastern Model.
I can't find any info regarding the manufacturer, does anyone know regarding it, bootleg or original manufacturer?
Also how is the quality of their product?

Hi sir.
Eastern Model does only license product, so it is original manufacturer. The reason why you can't find any info on their products is because they only focus on China, so sometimes a bit hard to get english info.

Their quality of plastic and snap fit is as good as Bandai if their previous Ultraman pla model line is any indication.

The only problem with their kits is their manual, sometimes got a bit typo and typical chinese to english level of translation lol


See their ultraman kit review here

:

I see, thx for the info. Been thinking whether to get one for the Iron man kit coz it look quite nice.
Also, just realise that you are the owner for AwesomeToyTV
Often watch your video for latest model kit info

Hi, I have Nanye nipper set for sale. It's a good nipper and it's what I am currently using.
If you're interested, PM me here.

lol I don't even show my face and my channel growth have been slow as well. And the hobby takes too much time per video.
