Indeed

Gunpla is cheap, rooming is expensive

You want a cheap big house, you must live on the rural area where the economical activity considered low.

Oh, btw. If you have the extra money and you equally like Destiny Heine & Beargguy 7-11, you can always buy both :D. But if you really have to pick one, choose RG Heine. Wings-of-Light exclusive be damned. You can always buy the Chinese product with a lot cheaper price for simple effect-parts like that.

I wonder if HLJ or the other sites will ever restock them :(, I missed out on the last one a few months back

And where would I find these knock off effect parts for cheaper than what bandai offers?

HG GuAIZ NEVERRRRR

As for bootleg Wing Effect... you live in USA right? I'd gotta say... difficult, most importer still saw gunpla as toy, only import random chinese bootleg without afterthought. And large online store tend to play safe and sell original only.

Also, did Slaughter Dagger use a new design or it's just recolored Strike with visor head? :confused:

"Colonies Liberation Organization"? So the Gundam pilots have a proper faction name now?

Knight_SV 2014-02-27 06:18

^since the release of MG Wing Zero EW back in 2004. It's written on the decal
I'm excited to completing all the HG kits of main characters gundam. I'm already have hguc rx-78, zeta, zz(unbuild), gp01, nu, f91(unbuild), v(unbuild), hgfc god and shining, hgac wing, hgaw x and dx(currently build), hg seed destiny,hg 00 raiser, quanta. I'm considering bought hgce aile strike seeing the proportion are very good. I once considered to bought rg aile strike but i haven't ventured on rg yet

Wild Goose 2014-02-27 09:53

It'll take me some time, a fair amount of time, especially as I wait for discounts...

But I will assemble my Company of GM. (4 mobile suits to a Team/Platoon, 12 to a Squadron/Company, 36 to a Battalion.) I already have GM Command built, now I need to build GM Command Space. I'm gonna experiment by leaving it unlined.

Also how do you guys get thinner lines? I've finding the Gundam marker's ink lines to be a bit too thick for my liking in some areas.

Galaxian 2014-02-27 15:02

My Kampfer Amazing finally arrived :D

You have some options:

1. Use the wash technique
2. Use real touch markers, thinner lines if angled right
3. Use smaller tip pens. Gundam lining markers are .25, I use .20 Sakura pens for lining (note, they only have black and other colors, so no grey)
4. Use a toothpick and very carefully trim your lines, extremely time consuming and boring/tedious

ZeroXSEED 2014-02-28 17:43

Okay, Bandai clearly gone mad with this release :D

Plavsky Wing + Plavsky power Gate with the MG booster? SURE!

MG Star Build Strike will have different wing color, the rumor said.

Knight_SV 2014-02-28 19:25

I will get wing zero, norn destroy mode and aile strike. And skipping rouge

Galaxian 2014-02-28 19:34

My HG shopping list right now is Exia DM and Wing Zero, still considering Wing and Sengoku.

ZeroXSEED 2014-03-01 01:59

I don't have Strike Kit myself, so I think I'll get Rouge if it came to my country

Actually, is there's any chance that bandai will rerelase it with IWSP? I don't mind waiting.

Akyra 2014-03-01 20:49

Lol...think I will buy the MG Star Build...gonna be one hell of a wtf kit...

Wild Goose 2014-03-01 23:29

Just got my GM Command Space and a hobby knife set (cheap) from Ace. Gonna try a speedbuild today - see how low it takes for assembly, no lining. I'll line later.

....or I could just wait until next weekend, when the OST comes out, then build alongside [flamenco intensifies].

Out of the obvious joke, I find DM Exia ugly. It maybe could pass if it used the original colors.

I have to agree.
I love the Exia but this isn't nice.
For starters the 4 prong thingys that point out are just weird and aren't doing the modal any favours.
Next is the colours, something is off. Either its theres too much red or the wrong parts that are red.

Personally I think its the COLOR

The red is too bright standard gundam red

What they needed is a darker blood red, like the darker red found on the Sazabi

i seriously want to paint the condenser part green for exia dm.....

Not really, the problem is that there is not enough diversity in the red and black. They need a 3rd color like light grey, silver or gold for more detailing. The dark grey is absorbed by the black. Also they need to swap red and black here and there.

Isn't that the prototype? Maybe we should wait till we see it in the show before making a judge of its color. For all we know, the official model might have off-colors.

Death Usagi 2014-03-03 15:09

Those 2 GN swords can't be Exia DM's only weapons... can it...? =A=;;

ZeroXSEED 2014-03-03 19:31

No, it's not 'exactly' prototype color, it has been painted fully for what I can see, and there's three tones of color.

It's just hard to see when the gray is dark enough to be mistaken for pitch black. The gray part is there on he sword, fist, and joints.

Exia DM has a bladeless version of the Exia GN Sword's beam gun, see here:

Not painted fully actually. The swords for one don't have their grey parts. This is what the Exia DM looks like in full color:

Skye629 2014-03-03 21:22

It would also be safe to assume that Exia still retains its wrist vulcans, since the forearms are mostly unchanged

And this should have been the official kit

A FREAKING SCORPION PACK BEATS THE K9 ANY DAY

Providenceangle 2014-03-04 08:35

The so called prototype Exia DM isn't painted. It's very hard to get a "plastic" finish like that with paint. I'd say it's been sanding to remove flow lines in the plastic, or they were really picky with the runners they chose for the picture.

If the next RG isn't build strike, I'll be shocked. If it's not, it's simply because they don't want it to be as obvious, as the show is making it out to be.

Spoiler for Show plot device:

Nah

They'll release HG Build Strike RG mode with clear joints and all that with the usual exclusive pricing :heh:

Fireminer 2014-03-04 09:24

Hey, these blade of Exia DM, are they GN Sword Kai or from GN Sword 3?

Should be a Variation of Exia R2, so it should be GN Sword Kai's blade

Death Usagi 2014-03-04 10:13

Now that I think about it, wasn't it that Gundam BF could not use Gundam 00 Season 2 stuff due to licensing conflict? Why Exia get the special treatment with its GN swords? O.o

IT'S CUSTOM SO IT'S OKAY :D

joke aside, yeah, they use the loophole of using R2 equipment on Exia's body.
