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

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.

There is huge different between those RG, MG and PG.

Most detail of course PG due to the number of different parts.

While for RG, its a size of a HG (1/144) but with detail of MG (1/100).

How solid are those inner frame? So far, I only have RG and I feel the inner frame is soft.
I want to try MG, but not sure if the inner frame is the same as RG.

Yes, RG part due to the size is prone to break if not handle carefully.

Personally, i dont like RG due to this issue. Detailed but fragile.

I still prefer MG, easy to custom paint or custom parts.

I loved the inner frame on MG RX-78-2 ver 2.0.
Many kits using this frame such as GN Sniper series, really solid. thumbsup.gif

I've been eyeing up Barbatos as my second try at GunPla (first one was a HG RedComet - nothing special done)
my friend suggested I take on the MG Barbatos, but then googling around says some of the Barbatos models are subpar? (also, i swear there was price increase before this. i thought all HGs were like 50-60, suddenly all 100++)

Does anyone have experience with any of the Barbatos? Or any recommendation for fun builds? Not looking for a "main character" type gundam, just something cool looking

Go to Youtube and search for MG Barbatos video.
Look for videos uploaded by Prime92, ZakuAurelius and Mecha Gaikotsu.
You'll find their reviews very useful.
