Is there an anime/manga based on it?

Black Gaea comes with a cup?

And here I thought I would be able to complete my first AC kit without losing a piece. Alas, one of the tiny pieces just had to fly out of my pincers while I was trying to fit it together

The piece I lost is just a minor piece, barely noticeable, unless you look for it. Actually the piece is so simple looking that I just cut a piece of the spruce and shoved it in(looks the same ) The picture below is the result of a week of blisters (Note: The left fist has not been attached as I am planning to buy a weapon unit in the future)

I don't think so. This is Gaea, not Crest. Anyway, the missing part is B 3, as seen here(pics from dalong.net):

and on the runner here:

From the first picture, you can tell its fairly obscured from view.

STYC - Yes, it's a mage knight figure. This is where I decided to put Gaea (And no, it is not intentionally trying to blow Magna Draconum's head off)

The reason why I lost the part was because I help the tweezers too tightly and the piece flew upwards into the heavens, never to be heard from again. So I would actually need to encase my self within a cubicle(ceiling included) to avoid such a mistake again.

This also depends on whether there's another AC kit which I find appealing.

STYC - The red kit is Infinite Justice, with its pink colours resprayed with metallic red and violet resprayed with metallic purple. Regarding MK, there are only 2 figures I'm still looking for Mystic Draconum and Neophant. Will probably get it of ebay when the spare cash is available(if ever)

Someone posted a picture of their Aaliyah here:

was trying to spot an mk figure I might recognize, but couldn't recognize any of them. probably has to do with the fact that I stopped after Lancers came out. You photographed your ACs individually, so where are they located in your room? Or did you keep them in their boxes?

Regarding the game, is it in english or japanese?

As I recall, Solaris is the planet where tournaments were held. Doesn't matter whether you if you died there as it wouldm't "actually" kill your character. It would just destroy your mech

Actually I think it can since it has four legs, it does have more stability (assuming the joints aren't too loose)

I don't think panel lines are really necessary(at least not on Gaea) since most of its parts are already fairly dark.

Now not sure. Just got my Gaea from TM last month.

Gaea was the first AC kit which they produced. And I did find difficulty with the silver circle part on the arms. It wouldn't snap into place so I used my cutter to make the hole a little bigger and hammered it in.

edloh2k - there are pics of my completed Gaea on pg 5. Got it at RM 128. The owner said it was the last one. Which means the one he offered you is probably either the black or red gaea, both of which are exclusives

I agree with whoami. After the hours of blisters while assembling the kit, it was gratifying to see the final result. Btw, how "bad" are the bendi kits? Used to see them around but never bought them before. Was thinking of getting Tellus but don't want to go broke. Maybe next year...

why do the tellus boxes look different? becuz one from japan?

Mine is roughly about 17 cm. I don't think any paint is really required. And as for the color, well that's where paint comes in.

I think the Noblesse Oblige came in last week. You can try XL Shop (http://www.xl-shop.com/xlshop/pages/productDetails.asp?productId=KOTO-102808) or AF-Hobby (Their forums list it as sold out, but maybe can call them to find out if they will restock)

Bought one, but haven't fixed yet

Got mine of Play-Asia when it was reissued last month
