And then never built it, but left the plans just lying around waiting for a very girly troubled youth to build and go on a rampage with.

I need to go back and watch some of those again. Looooved Epyon. Wing zero is probably my second favorite. Thinking of picking up the original series now that it's been rereleased on blu ray since I never picked it up before. Love building the models. Especially the master grades with the amazing details. Hoping some day to do a perfect grade.

I stick to High Grade mostly however I did get the Real Grade of the RX-78-2 but it was a bit complicated for me and couldn't grip it's shield or weapons...

I also managed the Master Grade of the Tallgeese which was sadly a mistake, neither of it's boosters on the back opened, I almost had to glue th shield to it's hand and had to buy a stand because it was too top heavy to stand up.

So I think I'll stick to HG though the MG of the Deathscythe Hell is very tempting.

I've also got my Blue Team of badass Cyclops: Gouf Custom, Kaempfer, Hygogg. I have 2/3 of these in MG, but I would absolutely lose it if they made an MG Hygogg.

I also managed the Master Grade of the Tallgeese which was sadly a mistake, neither of it's boosters on the back opened, I almost had to glue the shield to it's hand and had to buy a stand because it was too top heavy to stand up.

I looked up the MG Tallgeese on hlj.com. It shows the engines both open and closed. I've learned when modeling to test the tolerances of moving parts before I assemble them in order to see if the need modding.

perfect grade depends on the gundam. some are amazingly detailed- others drop detail for other features, etc the ability to transform.

if you want amazing details, try a real grade. they are mad and fiddly, but gorgeous. OR get the sazabi ver ka in MG. that thing is just absolutely gorgeous, blown away by the detailing.



that one is without any lining work or anything, they have so many coloured plastics in it. so many pieces move to reveal stupidly good detail underneath... shes just a beauty. the mechanisms, the joint movements.... anywho....

often ver ka or third releases are much better with detailing and joint movement. hubby has a rx78-2 in.... master grade i think? ver 3. cant wait for him to build it! If you have issues with joints being loose i think they suggest putting something like tissue/ tissue paper in the joint, helps thicken it enough that it wont flop as much. there are a few you tube channels on gunpla which can be quite handy

Want this, but am afraid too much painting would be required to achieve the details shown here. I had the original MG of this, and had to paint all the insides of the thruster cones. It wasn't pretty.

not so. this is hubbys. 100% no panel lining, no paint work, nothing. just careful work cutting each piece out.

That is just awesome! Thought the original was cool, but wow. Something else to add to the wish lists. I do like a lot of the ka versions that they've come out with.

Gunpla with a difference: a no name version of nanoblocks Wink He is utterly adorable IMO



Also this is hubbys latest perfect grade at its current build state: yes, it has leds, yes, that is one huge base that houses the battery pack Tongue and his feet will extend to the base. He won't actually fit in that shelf when finished we are gonna have to suspend the glass lower. I can't wait to see it finished!



also been watching Seed Destiny and quite enjoying it Smiley it does at times drag a bit though, not as noticeable while you are also busy building models Smiley
