The Justice is complete and now I have the Seed 2.0 kits out of the way
Not sure if the Eclipse counts since it uses part of the 2.0 frame. If I had to pick a favorite it would be the Providence mainly because it can stand without any assistance. The Justice can barely stand and the ankle armor on the Freedom gets in the way. Took a bunch of pics so please check them out on my Flickr.

Figured this would be the best place for this kit.
it’s a bit late for April fools jokes, but there’s an actual preorder for it
I've never understood the need for kits like this one and the noodle cup. Its cheaper to get the real thing than the kit 😅

Love it, @anubis20!
I do have a question though. If you were given a chance on doing another set again, would you go for a Designer Color series counterpart of the Season 2 units?
Anyways, looking at this picture, how I wish that there's a Metal Build release of the rest. But then, I don't know if I will be able to fund it.
That wouldn't be a bad idea doing designer color versions to distinguish them a little from the S1 suits.
Thats really what got me back into gunpla, building kits to complement my metal build collection.

@anubis20 Impressive work as always!
Personally, I don’t like the tone of yellow used for the inside of the GN Bazooka. I think I would like it better in gold. It is just too warm of a color I think. I makes A Gundam that sports mostly muted colors too vibrant.
Maybe it is the post processing of the pictures. Or maybe I’m just used too much to the Metal Build Dynames Repair 3 who has those parts in gold.
The comment isn’t intended to detract from your craftsmanship I’m just stating my preferences.
Thanks!
I went back and forth on the gold on that piece TBH. The inside of the GN Condensers I painted gold but then kept the yellow on the GN Bazooka just to keep it in line with the rest of the main body and because I wanted to shade those pieces. Haven't really found out how to shade metallics. And yea the yellow I used is vibrant, usually its orange yellow over an orange base which makes it even brighter 😄
I didn't post this pic but here is the entire team with MB Exia. Waiting on a an updated MG Exia. Just hoping it doesn't end up being a MGEX.

Wow! 4 days?! Also is this the Nadleeh that came with your Virtue or you bought 2 so you can display both?
I only have one
Too much money for a second so ill wait for an individual Nadleeh release or try to get a built one cheap.

Just superb, @anubis20!
Love how the 'hair' flows here.
Thanks! It took quite a few tries because the glue on the hair kept breaking. Took me about 4 days of just fiddling with Nadleeh's hair to complete this shoot. Virtue was done quickly 😄

Nice work on the virtue and that nadleeh looks impressive as well
Thank you!

Some pics of the Nadleeh.

MG Virtue is complete. Love this chunky suit and I was hyped to finally complete the team. Kit itself is pretty good and all of the armor parts stay on solid. the front skirt armor piece seems a little wobbly but doesn't really come off. For colors I tweaked the blue from the GN Cannons to make it a little darker and used silver for the extending barrels.

Thanks for the clarification! That is a hell of a marked up for the US from 27,000 yen to $340.
Yup someone is being greedy with the exchange rate, I was expecting it to be in the $270-280 range.

BBTS has the Metal Build Guren SEITEN for $340 with $51 NRD. I am still hoping P-Bandai will open up pre-orders.
https://www.bigbadtoystore.com/Product/VariationDetails/208576
P-Bandai is not going to open up POs. This is being brought over as a regular release here in the US even though its still limited production. Similar to how most of the web exclusive Monsterarts come to the US as regular releases.
Other shops that have it up for PO:

Man that Sazabi looks really good

MG AGE-1 is complete. This was a quick and easy build, it has no BS seam lines or anything that needs to be fixed. I would put it alongside the MG Gundam X as the perfect master grade kits. For this build I chose to go with more faded colors similar to the OYW RX-78-2 MG. This is about as custom as ill get with colors 😄

I saw it come up at USA Gundam Store and grabbed a preorder this morning.
Keep an eye on the price, usually they list at a higher price before the kit is even solicited to retailers. They will refund you if the price comes down but you need to contact them for that. If not they will keep the difference with no problem.

Way back in the time before the gundam anime made it state side, I remember getting the little hg version of this guy. It was the first gundam wing kit that I had seen at a hole in the wall hobby shop. Not long after that gundam was everywhere.
I used to have the 1/100 HG and they all got tossed in the trash after a move. 😔 I paint the yellow gold as an homage to the images in the manual from those old kits.

Thank you!

Its gaianotes pearl gold. Usually I paint it over a black base, but his time I applied straight on gray primer and it took a bunch of layers to get the same effect.
