GG Infinite doesn't carry the 1/100 Avalanche Exia.. cool story bro.

Not on his online store. =) I talk with him online a lot...Gundam Guy directly. =) I won't give away his info. When I get it, I'll show you the invoice here...:p And then you'll be full of epic failz.

Oh ok, you made a special order for a product he doesn't normally carry because you know the guy. That's cool, I believe you. :rolleyes:

Anyways, better picture of the boxart of MG Age-1. Looks nice, but it has the same pose as the MG Duel also coming out this month.. hah. :heh:

It has the standard "pose with gun" pose.
There is also "Pose with long sword/launcher" pose

It's not as good as the HG boxes, this does not compute.

IMO, the earlier/candidate boxart for MG Age-1 that was shown in Gunpla Expo World 2011 had a better pose.

Wow, that's much better--I vastly prefer that one.

I dunno, I have this thing with boxes. :uhoh::heh:

Me too :D.

In fact, the only thing I like about AGE HG line is mostly the box-arts.

Do you store the gunpla boxes in pristine condition or flat-packed? They do take a lot of space; I usually save the actual boxart only (cutting the top of the box) and discards the rest.

Maybe Bandai is saving the sword-striking pose for the MG Age-1s Spallow.

You might never heard about this, but I used my Gunpla boxes to store my other things such as magazines, tools, pens & markers, mangas, etc. It really saves me some shelves, actually.The contains (especially mangas & magazines) also help the boxes to be solid and not easy to be crushed/broken by other things. Also, I covered those boxes with plastics (my favorites only). Still, I’m not too fanatics about my boxes. I’m fine when they got some little dents, scratches, etc. As long as it doesn’t ruin the front cover. ;)

Well you are called Box-kun aren't you?:heh:

I do that as well though only to boxes of 1/100 and some large 1/144 kits only, the rest I cut the covers and store them in the preserved boxes along with manuals.

Also, I just came from the first day of my local IPMS convention, this year has a lot more Gundam kits entered than last year's. I'll post the pics later after I finish uploading them to photobucket.

I'm already having problems where to store my boxes. Specially like tomorrow, I'm gonna buy a GEM 1/8 Lelouch which its box is HUMUNGOUS! I wish that the travel bags of my mom gets another place.

About MG Age-1 Normal's box, I actually like it. It has a 'darker' tone unlike when it's in the anime. While the pose was recycled like many times, that doesn't make the boxart, for me, less awesome.

You might wanna try Imgur instead. Photobucket has been pretty sucky recently.

And, yeah, can't wait for your pics. ;)

Gunpla boxes can store non-gunpla things? Ok, I'm trying that (with RG boxes).:D

I'll try it some other time . I don't have any problems using photobucket anyway.


And the uploading process has finished. Here are the pics:

Under the higher resolution, we can clearly see Forbidden in the lower right corner and Duel ditching the Assault Shroud components in the background. If only Bandai had the wisdom to switch the background and foreground around and we'll have ourselves a really unique Boxart instead of such a generic one.

@MakubeX2: Well, you can’t really blame them. It’s Duel’s signature pose afterall. Not that I disagree with your idea. ;)

@Chiu fan: Wow, nice pics. Ok, here’s the list of my reaction:
The Delta Plus looks cute.
What’s that Zock’s customization supposed to be?
That battlescarred Zeta looks nice.
HG AGE looks a lot better and refreshing in that blue.
Wow, at the red Heavyarms.
That yellow-customized 1/100 Wing Zero is...unique, but why the wings are still white?
Those dioramas are sweet. My favorite is the Sinanju one.

The others are decent too.

IIRC, the guy who builr it said that he was just randomly kit-bashing it.

I heard that it was based-off of an LoL character. I don't play the game so I don't know which character.

My favorite as well.

From what I've been told, there are still entries that haven't arrived yet.

Kayle. You can see her splash-art on the base-stand of that Gundam.

Cheers.

I'm surprised you know about that. :heh:


On another note, I agree with what Makube said about Duel's box-art--such a shame.
