  1. Taking a break from Gunpla to take some pics of a bunch of PVC statues that I have boxed up. First up is the Alter Rei Ayanami Millennials Illust Ver. I am more of an Asuka fan but this is a top tier figure IMO.
  2. Man I was buying this because I believed the canopy was not going to be yellow 😑
  3. Just got back from Japan last week and this was my haul. With the exchange rate and tax free shopping I got some pretty good deals. These figures I got from the claw machines.
  4. Some pics of my recently completed MG Stombringer FA. FM Forbidden was completed a few weeks ago but have I have not had time to take pics. I really love how the Stormbringer looks! The Impulse-ish head is just chef kiss, makes the kit look mean AF, and the Full Armor cosplay colors are fantastic. However the kit is riddled with seam lines so it does need a little bit of work. There are also a ton of masking opportunities to add some details. In conclusion I think this is the happiest I have been after finishing a build.
  5. MG Stark Jegan completed pics. My wife was away visiting her parents so I managed to knock this one out in 10 days. This was my first experience with the Jegan mold and overall im happy with the kit. Pretty straight forward build and no seams to deal with. My only complaint is all the extra junk (plastic) that's left in the box because its a P-Bandai.
  6. Its kind of meh tbh. I cant put them in action poses and have to constantly play gunpla tetris to try and fit them in the detolf. For the EX-S I had to get its own display cube because it doesnt fit anywhere I didnt find is as tedious as the MGEX Strike Freedom but it definitely took a while. The kit only includes stickers, these are aftermarket decals from G-Rework
  7. Thank you! With paint everything usually gets tightened up so I dont run into many pieces falling off. The only exception to that is the front skirt on the MG Duel Gundam. That thing falls off by looking at it.
  8. Finished pics of the MG EX-S. Beautiful kit to look at, a pain in the a$$ to pose. I took it as personal challenge to try and get some poses out of it, but this kit is a brick and its better to just be left alone standing there and looking cool. I based my paint scheme on the Metal Robot Damashii EX-S that has some camo painted on it. Now I think I'm gonna have a running theme of doing some kind of camo on all my Sentinel builds. Hopefully I get to the Mk V and FAZZ soon. I replaced the Incom wires with brass rods because the wires included with the kit are unable to hold them up in place. As stated previously this was a pre-built kit I got in a trade a few years ago. Previous owner panel lined it completely which I couldn't remove, he also painted some thing with Gundam marker which I did remove, and a ton of parts had been glued. A couple of builders over at TFW2005 helped me with some spare pieces to complete this build.
  9. Thanks! Yup its completely painted and top coated. Highly recommend it. Its the most fun I have had with a Ver Ka kit. They usually have some annoying component to them but this build was pretty smooth.
  10. Zeta Ver Ka complete! Really liked working on this kit and I feel it has been the easiest Ver Ka kit I have worked on. Articulation is great and it looks great! My only complaint would be the lack of a forward butterfly joint but its a minor nitpick.
  11. Thanks man! I need those Evas running That is my favorite scene from the entire rebuild series.
  12. Finished the Figure-Rise Labo Asuka. Super easy build, the toughest thing was the seam line at the elbows but that one is optional. I left the clear orange parts stock as it was the main gimmick of this kit. I like that this kit can hang with the other Asuka statues I have. I feel like that is where Plamax is failing with those kits that just got announced.
  13. MG Force Impulse Gundam mini kit bash. I held off on building a MG Impulse for a while because I never liked the proportions of it, mainly the oversized hands and feet. I originally bought a MG EX-Impulse just to take the feet and hands from that kit but I would have had to mod the feet extensively since they are shaped differently from the stock Impulse. However, I later found out Daban made a MG Impulse and redesigned most of the armor parts on the kit. The design of the Daban Impulse was not for me, but the feet redesign worked and that’s when I decided to finally build an Impulse. Took just the feet from that kit as I wanted this Impulse to be mostly Bandai. The hands are from a MG Justice. The hands did not need any modification aside from some pins to be able to hold on to the beam rifle.
  14. Thanks! Yes those mold lines were on the knees as well. I tried to save the details on those parts but it involved tricky sanding and it looked more like scratched plastic that smooth one. You can see some details on those parts on the pic of the naked frame. I didn't like the result so I decided to restart and sand those pieces smooth, but its still better than the mold lines. Trying to match the plating of the original pieces was kind of tricky and its not a perfect match but I am happy with the end result. Thank you sir!
  15. MGEX Strike Freedom complete. I can finally retire my Metal Build!! The articulated hands are absolute trash everything else is pretty good.
  16. Im so ready! The bros are waiting I missed the Japan preorders though 😭
  17. Full Mechanics Raider. I liked this kit more than the Calamity. It had no seam lines, and had less detail to fill in. I omitted putting the wire in Mjolnir since I was was never going to really use it aside from the one picture.

  19. Yeti Stand KO? Found on Facebook, they could've tried to deviate from the design a little.
