These MSR's are half the size of the Metal builds. Just and FYI

 

Planning on it. I actually want some small ones to hang out in front of the PG's. Thanks!

Usually has no deposit to pre-order but they have not listed Justice yet. I have several pre-orders with them.

I told myself that I was getting out of MB's (I like them but their size doesn't work great with my displays). But I saw this for the first time last night. I LOVE IT! Trigger pulled!

Looks like I'm back into MB's now. Man, my Gundam collection is a mess. I have 1/60's, 1/72's and 1/100's.

LOL, are you going to be picking the other Crossbone Gundam then?

This one is cool, I missed out on the Full Cloth version.

The Full Cloth? Nah, the design looks to "busy" too me. I like Gundam stuff. But I lean heavily toward the basic designs. The ones with "all the stuff" don't do much for my eye.

Isn't P-Bandai USA carrying this one? I kept checking back but haven't seen it posted.

I have tried to keep it just to MB Gundam and not dip into Robot Spirit line. Are they the same build quality, except smaller? I like this design a ton. But finances are tight.

The Metal robot stuff generally is 1/144-ish scale and not stylized like the 1/100 metal builds, at least from the ones I've handled recently. They do feel pretty good quality and heavy, like a lot of the non macross hi-metals do

Same here, but I put in a PO for the recent Wing Zero release.

MRS Hazel looks ace! I’ll be enquiring with the AU distributor if it will be offered here since there is no P Bandai in AU. Cross fingers it’ll be offered.

[General Rasp]

Put my pre-order in for the MRS Hazel and Robot Spirits Psycommu Zaku.

This is not my work. I commissioned this. Progress pics from to day. It's the RX78-2 Unleashed.

The first one is before paint.

Nice! How much does it cost to commission a build if you don't mind me asking?

[crackpot]

But part of buying these kits is building and painting it yourself. 😁

[davidwhangchoi]

You should ask Anubis20 to do it, he won 1st place 2021 NA bandai's gunpla competition

I'm sure it's all over the place. This guy asked $200 but I gave him $300 and told him to have fun.

I have my own business. I'm FAR better off spending the time working. And my other hobbies already suck up too much time.

This guy has won all sorts of stuff and paints for one of the statue companies for a living. Short version, he's good.

I love building them, can't paint worth a damn. I always thought that the PGs didn't require you to paint unless you wanted a custom look.

I totally forgot about MRS Hazel Gundam. Good thing it's exclusive so I was able to place preorder at P-Bandai US. I'm excited for the MRS Hrududu as well. I know it would've been nice in 1/100 scale. But seeing that I have most of HGUC AoZ kits, I'll go with this size.  

The only comment I have is that this version looks a little bit skinny compared to most artworks that they have shown. But this is still HAZEL so I'm all for it.

Also a quick mention that Chogokin line is also putting a 'Night Illuminated' version for their Yokohama RX-78F00 Gundam.
