Anyone familiar with nu gundam builds? Mainly the 1/100 vs the 1/144 ver ka.
Watch some Geika kotsu (?) and he sorta mentioned the 144 one is sorta pushed very much to the limit? And some models by the same designer have trouble standing without supoort?

Yes, i have both MG 1/100 and RG 1/144. MG is crap. RG is better in terms of stability.

Damn it. I prefer 1/100 personally. How difficult is the 1/144 to put together? I saw one on shopee a steel coated bullet?

Edit: Also, is the 1/100 one the only one with the psychoframe effect?

1/144 is easy to put together.

Yes, 1/100 ver ka w psychoframe effect.

Folks, for new pbandai items, who are your go to pre order supplier? Gundam.my?

Or you just wait till the pbandai are available on shopee/lazada ?

It really testing your patience when you pre order with some shop and your items arrived much later than it is available in shopee/lazada.

Clear color DONE! with funnel effect.

Actually this is my 1st assembled Sazabi.. what can i say, very sturdy and solid for RG thumbup.gif  thumbup.gif ..

next is to do the special coating biggrin.gif

Wow, nice!
Where did you get the funnel effect? Bcoz of you i also bought clear color Sazabi. This will be 3rd Sazabi.

Btw, special coating is really expensive. Hope you have a wonderful time building it.

Titanium kit is rare now. Will keep a lookout for a new release.

Who here has experience buying fr PBandai jp via proxy ie buyee, zenmarket etc?

I tried sampling a MG unit and shocked at the total fee + shipping cost. A ¥4000 item will end up costing ¥10000 with EMS.

Any tips?

The same question why car got different prices... I think its a common sense to see what it features and offered than expecting same price.

And no way MG Sazabi is affordable than RG Sazabi...
*
Bandai MG Sazabi ver ka is affordable only if compare to RG Sazabi special coating version.
