Yeah, like he's one to talk about the pointless-ness of repeating what he said when he's doing exactly that all the time with his wishlist. But hey, at least he admits that repeating what he said is pointless, LOL

Your point is to make him order from GG because YOU have personal experience ordering to them that you gained because YOU TRIED.

Don't feed the troll guys, he's just sucking up to GG.
And Znozzy, yeah, I just realised the heck load of visible nubs on the Byarlant Custom! Oh well. Is there a reason why Bandai doesn't try to undergate parts? Or even make nubs less visible for that matter. I guess they're just lazy. |

Wow, didn't expect my questions would end up causing arguments, lol. Can't we all just get along? We obviously all love Gunpla, so that should be enough reason for us to settle any differences
That said, thanks everyone for the suggestions! I'll look into all the options presented and see which works best for my situation. Thanks again! You guys are great!

http://gundam.wikia.com/wiki/Master_Grade Go there. Search 2004. From there you can see which ones you like. $50 (US Dollars) equals to about ¥3972 these days. So that doesn't leave you with much of a choice. You can go buy a kit from GG Infinite from now through 12/31 and use the code ggcoupon for $10 off an order of $70 at least. Not many MG (if any) come with a stand. Just get an Action Base 1. Anyway, the ones you can choose according to your criteria... XXXG-01W Wing Gundam Ver.Ka RMS-099 Rick Dias ZGMF-X10A Freedom Gundam MBF-02 Strike Rouge --> ¥4000 XXXG-00W0 Wing Gundam Zero Custom RX-78-2 Gundam Ver. One Year War 0079 MSN-00100 "Hyaku-Shiki + Ballute System" RX-178 Gundam Mk-II Ver.2.0 --> ¥4000 RX-178 Gundam Mk-II Ver.2.0 (Titans) F91 Gundam F91 XM-X1 Crossbone Gundam X-1 Ver.Ka F91 Gundam F91 (Harrison Martin's) GN-001 Gundam Exia LM312V04/06 Victory Gundam "Ver.Ka" XXXG-01W Wing Gundam --> ¥4000 LM312V04(B-part)+SD-VB03A Core Booster Ver.Ka XXXG-01S Shenlong Gundam EW XXXG-01W Wing Gundam EW XXXG-01SR Gundam Sandrock EW XXXG-01H Gundam Heavyarms EW AGE-1 Gundam AGE-1 Normal AGE-1T Gundam AGE-1 Titus AGE-1S Gundam AGE-1 Spallow GAT-X207 Blitz Gundam --> ¥4000 AGE-2 Gundam AGE-2 Normal --> ¥4200 GAT-X103 Buster Gundam AGE-2DH Gundam AGE-2 Dark Hound --> ¥4200 OZ-00MS Tallgeese EW Those are the kits that you could potentially choose from based on the price range. The ones where I noted a ¥ price is those kits that went over your ¥ price range (roughly converted from the ¥ to $ rate for today). I hope that helps a little. I bolded the kits I think you might enjoy.

So from the recommendations my initial MG list to choose from so far is:
MG RX-78-2 OYW Anime Colors MG 2.0 Gundam MK-II AEUG MG Freedom (Maybe worried about fragile wings) MG Wing Zero EW (Maybe, I heard it got some serious hand and feather problems)\ MG Sandrock EW MG Blitz MG Strike (Whats the IWSP price btw? I prefer it over the Aile, and it haz a stand from what I believe) MG AGE-2 DH (the only AGE lead I would ever consider getting in MG) For the DH and Blitz Im a bit concerned about the nubs......every dark colored kit I build (HGUC Banshee in particular) gives me hell with the nubs, how do you guys get about it? I dont paint, just cut, sand a bit, then color over Last edited by Skye629; 2012-11-10 at 04:42. |

Wing (TV) is definitely a good one, liked building that one (Like Skye, Wing holds special value, for being the lead of the first gundam series I've ever watched, about ten years ago)
And while I haven't built it yet, Qan[T] looks simply amazing, and is a recommendation for that alone (also posing, lots of posing)

MG Strike and Freedom are good kits if you don’t mind peg-less hands. And Freedom’s wings aren’t that fragile IMO. Any of the Wing EW MG kits (Heavyarms, Deathscythe, Deathscythe Hell, Shenlong, Sandrock) is a sure treat. For cleaning nubs, I only use a file and some markers with matching colors. As for my HGUC Banshee, here’s the result: I didn’t sand it whatsoever since it will leave some ugly marks on clear parts.

MG RX-78-2 OYW Anime Colors - didnt do but have done the ver 2.0 which has more weapons than oyw ver MG 2.0 Gundam MK-II AEUG - HD ver resolve the unturnable wraist issue else the kit is solid MG Freedom (Maybe worried about fragile wings) - the wings are heavy & cause the kit to sag to the back if you do not do the HiMat mode MG Wing Zero EW (Maybe, I heard it got some serious hand and feather problems) - the feather is kinda loose else everything is just alright MG Sandrock EW - Great kit, nothing much to complain MG Blitz - Another great kit with lots of pose to do also MG Strike (Whats the IWSP price btw? I prefer it over the Aile, and it haz a stand from what I believe) - So far i have done Aile,IWSP, Strike Noir . IWSP pack is bigger than Aile Pack, IWSP comes with Wing EW stand . In terms of pose i wld suggest Strike Noir/Strike E + IWSP MG AGE-2 DH (the only AGE lead I would ever consider getting in MG - so far only done MG Age-2 , the legs & hand pegs can be quite loose & the arms can't really handle the dodds rifle weight |
