Whatever it is or ends up being, extra 1J/1A heads ala Hasegawa would have been nice, but that keeps them from making more money I guess. I'll get one, at that price it's worth the risk.
-
Sinanju and Unicorn are already out. Kyshatriya will probably not come out since its so big. So the most likely MG's will be Geara Zulu, Jegan, ReZel and Delta Plus.
I can see a PG Unicorn coming out, seems they like making 1 PG for any recent series that comes out. Too bad they can't go back and make an RX-79G...

My TRU has a huge sale on old 25th stuff, I just picked up a Firefly/trooper pack for 9.99. They had other stuff as well, they still had 25th G1 Prime there, but he was 60...not worth it when I already have a G1 Prime.
Anyhow, what's the word on the Mospeada-type cycle coming out? I plan on buying several for customs.
-
Heretic! Dirge has awesome colors. No one is allowed to say a G1 seeker scheme is bad/inferior.
Actually now that you mention it, I don't know if he counts but Sunstorm's bright day-glo early 90's Orange always bugged the hell out of me. I had barf that color once after drinking Mad Dog 20/20. The white head looks cool though, I'll give him that much.

I used to have a horribly unfixed image dimension of a 1/48 Roy...and it's been gone for like 3 years. Can we fix my rank now from "please fix dimension...eyes bleeding?" It just doesn't fit anymore...feel free to be creative, I don't mind a good joke at my expense. I guess the first mod that gets to read this gets to have his way with it.
-
Taking a guess, this thing looks like a snap fit kit judging from the wings on the sprue pic, I know it says glue on the info by the preorder info, but looking at the parts I see a snapper. Very smart if they did go that route, it'd win over a lot of the toyboys.
-
Thanks guys. I actually just stumbled across Samueldecal, but their email is bouncing. I tried the other means of contact. Here's hoping they are still around.
they should be, I just bought a couple sets from them about a month ago.

Props to WARRHEAD for a big ass box of Gundams to my door for a great price! One of the best deals EVER!!!!!!!!! A MUST TO THE SSL!
-
I'm surprised that Tron hasn't been brought up yet.
-
Empire Strikes Back...duh.
-
Props to to177 on the sweet deal, SOC Spec EVA 01 for 25 shipped! Awesome toy, awesome condition and fast shipping!
-
I have a MG God gundam is that what you are looking for?
No, only 1/60 scale (12 in. or taller).
-
Bumped from oblivion!
-
Anyone here voting for the "VFs" in Astro Plan 9 from Outer Space?
I'm with you on that one, on principle alone.
-
Hmm looks like the Wing MG Custom doesnt look to bad. .....if you panel lined it and added the stickers it you would be perfect. BTW the Pirate one. Is it any good
crossbone was one of my favorite mg's, get the cloth version though.
-
sure but i prefer to hear it from folks here if i have your permission to do that......i know eugimon also paints his kits and with so many different view points i want to make sure i dont destroy a 300 model kt
Destroy a 300 dollar model kit with paint?! How? If you mess up, Pine Sol is your friend. I do it all the time. Just drop them in a bucket and let them soak a couple of days, paint comes right off.
-
Not really apocalyptic, but 12 Monkeys, Brazil (both Gilliam I know), and the first 2 Terminator films come to mind...I try to forget the last 2.
-
Has Bandai ever made anything in 1/48 scale?
The DX V Gundam is in 1/48 scale.
-
KHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
I've never seen those cloth gear figures before... what's the story on them? Are they like, a hybrid model/toy? How big are they?
They're 1/60 scale, and kind of like the ancient ancestor of the Metal Material Model Gundam Seed toys. Pretty cool, ahead of it's time, but still vintage. I have an Ingram, and I've never regretted it.
-
Thaks for sounding off. Permit me to nitpick a bit if you don't have any pictures....
When you say that you'd take the 1/144 Dendrobium any day...is that because it's a better kit...or because you don't like the White Base itself as a design?
Sad to hear about unimpressive details...
Oh well...
I generally really like the White Base and what with how important a role it played in what appears to be the only Gundam show I actually like (MSG)...I figure I should have one...
What about the Bandai reissue 1/2000 kits? Are those hopeless?
Pete
Double post.

Couldn't tell you about the 1/2000 kits, but the Seed EX kits of Archangel, Minerva and Argama are awesome.
Dendrobuim is a total MUST own for a Gunpla builder. 3 feet long, massive, and really, really good details. Fits in nicely with the Fix Fig Deep striker and Stamen also. And it breaks the tediousness of building just a MS.
All in all, if your a big MSG fan, and love WB, then by all means get the 1/400. Just don't pay an insane price for it, because it's not worth it.
-
actually that's just the way "racing blue" looks, has little sparkley bits in the paint. but yeah, I need to redo some stuff like the red on the waist and the clear coat it.
Hey man, can you post some pics of the defects on 00? I'd like to see if there are any preventative measures I can take to avoid any problems.
-
Does anybody own the 1/400 White Base and can anybody vouch for it being the best thing in the universe?
Pete
I own one. Actually, I stole it off ebay for 95 USD + 15 for shipping. Not a bad deal.
Now, is it the best thing in the universe? Absolutely not. It's massive, yes. It has cool features, yes. But it's really nothing to write home about. If I had to choose between the 1/144 Dendrobium or the White base, I'd take the Dendrobium any day. The figures are really lame too. Warping gunbarrels, poorly detailed. As a matter of fact, for being as big as it is, the details on WB aren't that impressive either. Basically, it's an attention getter, that's about it. You're money would be spent better elsewhere, I wouldn't pay more than 100-120 USD for one now though. I almost wish they'd redo one in 1/200 scale for the HCM pro line. Now that would be the best thing in the universe!
If Yamato made a 1/60 VF-4 would you buy it?

No. Given their track record over the last few years I'm postive the 1st wave would be f***ed up somehow.
