Not bad wor.... might get it if only my backlog not so big.
anyways, genuine question for you guys - have you guys continued to buy gunpla like normal or have reduced due to the covid 19 impact on the economy ? i think the market is going to get worse next few months so im also pulling back |

If you guys need any advice on gunpla and plamodel building, you can try talking to Chee Lam AKA Oldman - very friendly and helpful chap lives in KL. Usually you will see him in GBWC doing demos dewa_poyo liked this post

QUOTE(Marcion @ Sep 12 2020, 09:17 PM) well for that fix figuration expansive mark up price sure want to check all detail. but then again bandai quality assurance not on my side, my snow white wing zero figure got lot nub mark and some minor paint chip, other accessories no problem. Anything GFF/Metal build price is insane but then again, when you preorder from your hobby shop, do you think you can ask to check for QC and then say you don't want to buy the item ? |

QUOTE(C-Note @ Sep 28 2020, 09:49 AM) Thanks for the recommendations! 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 houseJust 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 Depending on your location, my few favourite stores are 1) The Hobby Store 2) Angel Trend Trading C-Note liked this post

QUOTE(GameFr3ak @ Sep 28 2020, 03:09 PM) 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? Yes sirThe Youtube scene is tough, maybe bcos of my face lol QUOTE(C-Note @ Sep 28 2020, 03:50 PM) What would your advice be for first set of tools? If you are beginner Dont plan to do painting, maybe just panel lining and topcoat 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 ) chaukeng liked this post

QUOTE(UnknownMy @ Sep 29 2020, 11:49 AM) From the Iron man Box, I see that it is product of Morstorm or Eastern Model. Hi sir. 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? 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 : |

QUOTE(UnknownMy @ Sep 29 2020, 01:39 PM) I see, thx for the info. Thank you sir. As for the Iron Man model kit, if you don't plan to paint it, i would advise to get the deluxe version with metallic finishing.  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 QUOTE(GameFr3ak @ Sep 29 2020, 04:49 PM) 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. slow and steady la..... |

QUOTE(limfreelance @ Oct 5 2020, 09:22 AM) not snap fit?? nowadays, almost every collectible is expensive due to our weak currency exchange.... really hard to stay in this hobby.... im just glad that Gunpla is still not toooo expensive yeah rm600 is quite pricey for me....took me consider few time before engage to po it, but since this kit is quite limited and i think it wont reissue in future. alway stick to the rule. buy first regret later |
