HG Gundam Throne Zwei: The Summary

My lil' bro got himself a Throne Zwei for his birthday(And I don't!).

-Head (Pretty small... Like the Eins, only w/o the "horn", it's smaller than Dynames' head!)

-Torso (Like the Eins, only w/o the uber GN Launcher backpack. Instead it's replaced w/ something even smaller)

-GN Fangs (Go ahead and scream "FANGU!", the Fangs won't listen... Why? Cause they CAN'T move... They are molded into the skirt armor.)

-GN Buster Sword (A nerfed Zankatou... I dunno why but I can't seem to get both of Zwei's hands to hold it properly. Yet again, beamless beam sword)

-GN Hand Gun (Looks cool from every angle... Guess what, they used REAL wires for the cable thingy which is to be plugged in the Eins.)

OverAll- Fair: The Zwei has cool looks and cool weapons... However, due to the oversized skirt armor, mobility is severely hampered. My second Throne and yet.... NO RED PLASTIC BEAM!!!!

Looks like both of us have the Eins and Zwei, lol! Nice docking... but the Ein's GN Rifle needs to be aligned properly.

PS: I didn't spray the Zwei... Coz it's not mine. It's my lil bro's. Worse yet, I never sprayed any of my models... That's why I don't dare to post their pictures here in the Forums

 the official website shows Drei firing the cannon  and Zwei connecting the cable. ya i had problems  docking them together.

PS: Post ur collections !!! i sprayed an entire ki t once and didnt turn out too well, never finished  it also cuz I ran out of paint (so does the store  lol) Now I only adds color when necessary, mostly  HGs, MGs is OBB for me

For HG 1/144s, it's really hard to see the eyes even you paint them(sometimes, you can't even see them at all), so what I do is cut the eye sticker at the right size and put them at the right place.

As for MG 1/100s, they always come with clear parts for the eyes and main cameras, so they're a lot easier to deal with than the 1/144s.

@ Astrana: I like how your Zwei turned out. It's actually giving me a second thought about buying this kit.

Got my first HGUC, Nu Gundam. I'm really impressed with it. The detail between the joints are nice and it has nice posebility too. Too bad no Funnel effects part . I can't wait to get my hands on Sazabi to have an Amuro VS Char fight!

Not sure if there is an interest.. but I'll continue posting
Here's my weekend update on the hguc nu I've been working on.

I did a quick assembly of most of the parts for a primed vs snapped comparison picture:
Spoiler:

Next up, I found the back of the knee cables a little bland, so using some magnet wire, I wrapped around them creating some springs. Hopefully this will look good when I finish painting this part.
Spoiler:

Initial base color for the white parts were painted on, I used Intermediate Blue from Mr Color.
Spoiler:

Finisher's Pure White was then sprayed on using the intermediate blue as a preshade color:
Spoiler:

Closer comparison pictures

Not too fond of the MG Impulse design. It just seems...off. The rifle looks to small, and the legs look awkward.

Although I'm not at all an Impulse fan, the design and how it turned out is very sexy.

Looks to be a solid kit, the folding Force Silhouette pack is a plus for me

Strike copypasta isn't appealing to me. Definitely not. Still waiting for upcoming images of Shin Musha which is the real must get for me

I like the sword sillouet better, probably get MG Musha instead of this. from the game pics Musha is very detailed with all the armor, I wonder how it wold turn out for MG. Hope it doesnt require to add much color
