MY first MG gundam and the first model kit I have build in five years. Never was a fan of Gundam, I was more into Patlabor, Eva, and cars but when the G Gundam was released like five years ago, I was really amazed by the level or articulation (this got to be the first gundam that can actually do a side kick and stay balance while doing so).

However, it was such a super hot item back then that it was always out of stock everywhere and I couldn't find any. So after a while I just stop looking for on and also at the same time stop building models ( I was into guitars and all money went to guitars, effects, amps, and pickups).
Fast forward to present and since working never have the time for band anymore and also found MG G Gundam for RM85 only. What a steal!!! (It was like RM120 five years ago). Bought it and spent the whole night building it (until 6am in the morning).
Managed to broke two parts (thank god (pun intended) managed to fix it and none will the be wiser), accidently shaved off a bit too much on one and stickers placement not very good.
Also don't have sand paper around so couldn't smoothen those plastic bits.
However, discovered the joys of gundam marker and I was surprised that simple lining really adds to the beauty of the kit.
Here are some pics of the model. Sloppy lining and 'dirt' effect.

I am a casual modeller, never painted any (well I did try painting an AE86 and it was disastrous). Please be gentle





Gotta love the poseability, in only bandai use this fighting frame in more of their kit.
ps-Now looking for a new challenge, was thinking of MG Wing Zero Custom. But worried about since, heard it's smaller than usual MG, how much smaller when compared to G Gundam?
