the ankles are indeed pretty weak but it CAN standup pretty well^^ but its true, i do recommend an action base for this guy. especially if you plan to display it transformed!

i was just chatting about 00 (or trying -.-' )
i'm a great fan about that series,it was watching 00 that i discover all the "gundam world"..^^


as i'm used to say sometimes:"strike while the iron's hot", this year is mostly Age,Seed and Unicorn..


i don't like too much Age,but i'll glad to have the MG Aegis.. ^^

It can stand by itself? Syd (Gaijin Gunpla) made it look as if it kept falling over with barely any reason....

it sure can!



in my opinion making it stand isnt a problem. the problem is that it is hard to make it look good while its standing :P you move one part and ten other parts get out of alignment again... so the result is usually a really awkward pose.

You managed allright though...

I'm still indecisive about the next kit I'll be buying, once again after getting some cash together. D+ looks good, but so does 00Q (and Exia, for that matter). Also Duel, it looks good without being overdone, so decisions decisions...

i dont think it will help you a lot when i tell you that all the kits that you listed there are great in my opinion? XD (except for the duel since i obviously dont own that one yet :P)
the MG OOQ stands out the most though in my opinion. that thing is just awesome!
the exia is great as well, it just has kinda weak ankles. but depending on which version you buy you geta lot of accessories! plus the ignition mode version with all the chrome weapons looks really awesome.
and the delta plus looks amazing but it does have a ton of issues. mainly that it cant stand THAT well and that all joints are rather lose. i did have a lot of fun building it though! (that only took like 2 or 3 hours though so it wont last long :P)

Haha, it does help. At least I know now they're not bad kits at least. And yeah, 00Q has been on my mind for a while now. I really liked 00 as a series and the Qan[T] just looks awesome, really like a refined form of 00 en exia. So far I only have 2 MGs (Wing and Freedom) and I feel like 00 should get some more love from me (I do have 2 hg's though, exia and 00R, which is why I want the Qan[T] in mg, since I have nothing of that suit).

After the next kit I'll have to wait for a while, since I don't have room on my shelf for more. I could put extra shelves on the walls, but since I plan on moving to another one should the possibility arise, I don't want to put too much effort into this room...

i think the OO Qan[T] would be a nice step up from the wing gundam and the freedom^^ its frame is really amazing and the amount of detail it has is very impressive.
i really dont see why you shouldnt get it. it was a great build and i had a ton of fun with it in general.
it does have some flaws though... the sideskirts love to pop off and the connection of the sword bits to the shield likes to break really easily.
but it looks cool and the articulation is off the charts! so i think that easily makes up for the flaws that it has.

"Serch"...EPIC FAIL

Please tell me that the orange parts for the shoulders are actually separate pieces that'll be in the A plate.

The Genoace II is, well, a recolor? But at least it has more red, the reason why I'm gonna buy it

Looks that way. If you look at the orange piece on the left shoulder it's flat and aligned with the red shoulder piece. The orange part on the right arm looks like it's bulging out(like it wasnt pushed in hard enough)

Then again, it could just be camera angles and shadows playing tricks on me

[HasuMasu]

Is that first pic a new wear for the AGE-2?

[duotiga]

Is Age-2 double bullet
Wonder if 3rd form double blade? =p

Bandai would probably just recolor the C plate of the Genoace Custom, which contains the Custom's shoulders, two thrusters backpack and the antenna head parts and just keep the original A plate of the Genoace.

Holy crap the Zeidora looks great in that picture.

Looks sharp, duo.
I planned on posting some pics of my kits, but my phone and my pc are no longer on speaking terms...

[suiton629]

Is it just me or does the AGE-2 Normal (and Double Bullet) sort of remind you of the 00 Raiser?
