That was Gundam Marker paint? It doesn't look like it. Is it just the regular blue marker or you mixed?

Because my collection priority is like nike's. I prioritize collecting 1/100 more than 1/144. If I already got its 1/100, then I see no reason in getting its 1/144 scale as well. Except for Sinanju which I got in all scale, LOL!

Except for me...

MG --> no MG then get 1/100 No Grade
SD? --> only some of them
HG --> forget it
RG --> forget it
PG --> too damn expensive

I don't have the actual color which is why I use the stickers

Damn~ Already. So I guess that Bandai's plan was to do all wears in 1 set... So we end up paying 3x the amount to have all 3.

Paint is 1 thing, mixing is another issue

That's why I said "like". Here's mine:

MG --> no MG then get 1/100 NG or HG
SD --> I have 2 and I have no plans in getting another in the near future
HG --> Whenever I feel like there's no chance of that kit getting an MG (or even just a NG 1/100) or I'm so hyped over it that I can't wait getting one myself even though it's inevitable MG release is sooo near.
RG --> Too small for my hands and too fragile for my forcefulness. Honestly, I would like to try RG Strike Rouge, but that's too expensive as it's an expo version.
PG --> Too expensive and super space consuming. Besides, the only PG I like is Strike Rouge.

I've tried mixing paints myself and thankfully, it's close to the actual color. Well, some stickers aren't really same in color with the actual parts so I guess that works for me anyhow.

Sinanju is the only one I'd consider getting in all sizes as well, it's way too sexy to pass up
But that will be for a later date, won't be getting any duplicates until I get one of all the models I want first.

But it's completely bitching stuff, I'm always drawn to other stuff so deciding what to get is a rela pain.
I spied this on front page of HLJ and I'll tell you now I'm getting it!

Though I love Sinanju, I actually messed up its SD. That's why I'm doing all the preparations necessary for HG and MG, most specially for the MG. I am to buy the metal thrusters set, already bought the waterslides, and I'm already searching for the Sinanju head display stand. My worries will have to be the gold trims because that's what I messed up in my SD.

I see. I always kept most of my gunplas atleast in scale. With more selections, that means HG (or RG), except those great 2.0 MGs.

How come it looks like AGE 3 doesn't have the chest sticker?

Is all of that from just one person!? Mother of God...

The shelves/cases they used for display attracted my eyes more than the models, somehow...

Nope, it's from the Gundam Front Tokyo exhibit. Quite a collection...of nice transparent shelves.

Particularly these displays:
Likely limited gunplas -> http://www.amiami.jp/blog/2012/04/17gft_02/75.jpg
Freedom METEOR and Dendrobium Orchis -> http://www.amiami.jp/blog/2012/04/17gft_02/59.jpg
