  1. Love it. I gotta finish a GM before i start on my PG Zaku. GM has to be one of the worst MG kits ever.
  2. I'm sorry, but the price for the extra finish freedom is absolutely asinine, almost double the cost of the original MG kit. I balked when i saw that, just couldn't believe it. The MkII, however, I will be picking up. Looks like they redid the legs nicely.
  3. I remember messing with a 1/60 Freedom a bit and it seemed more like a bigger version of an HG. The shoulders didn't swing forward like they do on the 1/100 Strike. It didn't have an internal frame either. 318097[/snapback] Yeh, now that I think about it, it is more HG than MG (this is what happens when I don't look at them for years). But there were some things that were on the 1/60s that were not on the 1/100s yet found on the MGs. I'll say this, it's a HG kit with more detail. 318105[/snapback] Yeah - it's the blown up HG kit, though the lighting apparently makes it cost as much as a PG kit (around 90 bucks, probably more with importing). I guess it falls in line wiht the HY2M kits the used to make with all the lights and stuff.
  4. THe plastic is this somewhat odd pinkish stuff which has a good number of knit lines. You'll definately want to paint it - even adding simply red spray paint significantly helps the look of it (you don't really even need to paint the skeleton, although you should, since you can see parts of them at the joints. You really only need 2-4 spray colors, a red, burganday, black, and maybe a grey. It's worth the extra couple of buxks, trust me.
  5. Just oredered two PG Zakus. I wanted the PG Wing Zero or the RX-78 more, but I guess this is a close second. Funny thing is that I built a Char Zaku about a year ago. Maybe I'll build one in Tristar colors or something. Anyone want to trade a zaku for a wing zero or a RX -78?
  6. Looks a little too light blue to be a Titans theme. I'm looking forward to seeing it though. Funny thing I just finished watching 0083 and was debating getting the MG GP01 ir GP01Fb and GP03 myself. They are some nice looking suits. Wish they made a MG Gerbera Tetra though. That was a seriously sweet suit.
  7. Is it just me or has this series had a lot of clip shows. I mean, isn;t this the third one? That's a lot for a 50 episode show. Anyhow, if you do watch it, a good portion of the clip show show is stuff that happened, oh 3-4 episodes ago. THey really are just not trying anymore.
  8. Definalty like the color scheme. I always thought the original looked a little too festive. MIne is blue with red vents instead of yellow.
  9. They're a middle ground of detail and convenience. I absolutely hate putting together models, but MSIAs tend to be a bit too toy like - GFF gives you a model like quality display figure, except it's all ready made and finished the way an MSIA is. The Fix Figuration quality varies with each release much like anything. Ones like GFF Crossbones, GFF F-91 are good. Ones like the GFF Zeta are complete disasters. 313311[/snapback] I was kind of curious about this too. I got a Zeta plus FIx, mainly cause I liked the paint scheme, and when i tried to turn it into a wave rider, the darn thing basically explided in my hand (this was out of the box, no playing with it AT ALL). Legs and arms flew off, Paint was chipped on a lot of places. I wasn't too impressed. Are all of the fix like this? I was seriously considering getting a deep striker, mainly cause I know they won't have a model of it out, bit if its going to fall apart like this. I might avoid the line. Did I just get a bum figure?
  10. More than likely they'll made another SEED sooner or later, becuase, as someone on the Gundam board put it "you could label dog crap with SEED, and it would be a best seller." Of course Strike Astray Freedom Rouge Gundam, piloted by KIra, would now have the power to destroy entire solar systems. And Kira would still be doing non lethal shots. Infinite Strike Savior Aegis Justice would be piloted by Arthrun, and would, again, be destroyed. Guess I should have put a spoiler warning there. Oh well.
  11. What MS? Time please? If anything....Kira should have brought the IWSP with him. Rouge was designed to use that thing. 311970[/snapback] Doesn't the IWSP only work in atmospheric flight? I though it was like a aile pack with better weapons designed for atmospheric fighting.
  12. So I'm kind of curious about how well does S. Freedom work on earth, where he can't use the DRAGOON system. Is he just as powerful? If you think it's powerful now, just wait until he goes into seed mode.
  13. No wings of light on the 1/100 - WTF?? I'm starting to think i'm going to have to make my own.
  14. They wanted to make it sound cool...? 310808[/snapback] I have a better question, what the hell is the light radiating out of Destiny's wings? do they serve any purpose other than to paint a big shot me sign? Kind of like saying, we need extra energy, but let's waste the power out the wings for no reason. 310809[/snapback] Well, I though they could be a weapon, but if it's just an effect of a mirage colloid system and not actual "beams," then it can really be used as a weapon. Guess it's to make him look purty, like the butterfly
  15. I'm just making a suggestion here, but for some reason that little crook where her lips come together just doesn't seem to look right to me. I dont know why, but it might look better if it wasnt there. Just a though.
  16. A lot of the gundam kits in1/100 come with a man to stand beside him for comparison - he's usually about 3/4 of an inch or so tall.
  17. HEy all, I just got a max 1/60 which I have in plane mode, but for some reason, the landing gear folds back into the leg whenever i set it down - anyway to fix this?
  18. Hey folks, I'm new here, but I recently had the joy of obtaining a 1/60 Yamato Max valk with the fast pack from a friend. Only thing is that it has the wrong gun on it. Apparently the slightly changed the Yam mold for max and miria, so that the hole on the gun to connect the gun to the plane in fighter mold is lower on max than it is on the other valks. So my gun keeps on falling out in fighter mode, which is really annoying the heck out of me. Could anyone help me out? Have an extra max/miria gun lying around, I will buy it off of you or swap if interested. I have the regular gun for other 1/60 valks, no stickers applied. I also have a bunch of TFs, if you are interested in any of them.
