Lol, I missed the session.

Was busy hunting figmas. :heh:

1/100 00 Gundam unpainted review
http://www.geocities.jp/hobby_no_toriko/DSCF12571.jpg

Can't say i'm surprised. :heh:

Hopefully i'll be able to order one soon. Just gonna finished of the HG Zeta i bought the other day.

I got my cherudim and GN-XIII yesterday.

I'm building the GN-XIII now and I still have some sanding work to do before it's ready to be painted.

I think should also get to work on my kyrios that is rotting in his box. 00 is also almost ready to be painted but I'm still busy fixing his V-fin.

aiming for that today also but sold out :(

Huh? The 00 Gundam + 0 Raizer set is on sale there?

just a sneak....1/100 00 gundam totally sold......

I think they're referring to just the 00 Gundam, and not the 0-Raizer set, which won't be out until next month afterall :heh:

Hello guys I laid my hands on a 1/100 00 Gundam (thanks to AFA) and I'm currently figuring out how to paint the clear orbs. Do you do any of the following:

1. paint/paste the dark green sticker and paint clear green on the underside
2. paint silver on the bottom and paint clear green on the underside of the clear parts
3. paint silver at the back, clear green in front

Or any other options which you think will yield better-looking results? I'm never going to paste the stickers unless they are special markings and have like words on them.

Also, Gunpla Secret Factory managed to fit one of the LED units inside the chest! It's engineered to accept the LED device, but the neck joint parts need to be clear for the light to shine through. Anyone hoping for a third LED unit to come with the O Riser/Raiser/Raizer/whatever?

Paint dark green on bottom, then paint clear green on the underside of the clear part. I did that on my unfinished Astraea and it looked good.

Silver bottom is too light I think.

Somebody on the net showed off how they used clear green on the underside of the clear parts, and pasted sparkly silver wrapping paper instead of the stickers. The result was a green orb that sparkled under the light. It was genius.

Does the 1/100 00 Gundam come with the two small batteries for the GN Drives? Just wondering...

Another HG Seravee painted review

http://taste.style.coocan.jp/08111426.jpg

forgive me if i am slow, but i discovered that the beams that come with the GN-X III and probly GN X in general, the beams for its beam sabers fit HG 00's beam sabers perfect

Thanks for the suggestions guys! I did see a pro modeller do a diorama of Virtue purging its armor the first time in the Gundam capture scene. He used holographic stickers under clear green to achieve the same result. Then again I'm afraid dark green on bottom removes the clear orb look. It really comes down to personal preference then.

Unfortunately no batteries are included and I'm having some difficulty looking for the batteries.

What? No batteries? Aw...that sucks

I managed to get my hands on a HG 1/144 G-3 Gundam/Zeong(Char custom?) today :)



it's pretty cool and i am seriosly debating if i should even build it since i was so lucky to get my hands on it. the owner of a local hobby shop got it from japan(a fair? or something) 6 years ago but never opened it, everything is perfectly intact and nothing is opened. She decided to sell it to me, lucky me =p

What do you think? should i build it guys? or should i admire it hahahha i have never seen any place sell this and they all seem to be sold out online etc. ive seen teh completed kit on dalong and it looks nice

Dun Dun Dun

For those who probably won't get the significance of U<3Anime's post above...

The 1/100 00 Gundam's secret feature

The interior of the 1/100 00 Gundam's chest is actually pre-molded to incorporate the GN Drive lighting unit, including a slot for the switch! It's a very devious, if clever design measure ensuring that modellers who don't like the shoulder light up feature can still use the lighting unit in a different way with minimal modifications.

It looks pretty when the head lights up!

aww man this make my regret of not getting 1/100 00 even bigger

i'm still curious about how does those guys painting the translucent parts in HG 00 and HG cherudim...

With translucent paint.

you are not the only one also:upset:

They're nothing special, but these are awesome boxarts!

btw it seems that Virtue, Kyrios, Dynames and Exia will get HG release in Trans-Am color

I'd like you to take that statement back. :p

Why Dynames? It never even went Trans-Am in the show.

to make the set more complete? :uhoh:

Hi,

I got a question. Is most of the MG strike freedom extra finish's internal armor different from the regular MG strike freedom at all (I know some joints are gold plated, but im talking about the non gold plated parts)?

The HG are all just the same models like the non-trans am right? Then there is no reason to get them besides the pink paint job...

To me they are just price hike. The AEUG version get some silver "HD" stickers but lost the stand for the same price, and the Titan version get 500 yen price increase for the stickers. The original 2.0 box arts are better anyway.

And I don't know if it is just the pictures but the torso part of the new Mk II Titans' colors seems to be pitch black, unlike the more subtle dark navy blue we have in original 2.0.

whats the poseability on the Freedom gundam like? not the strike freedom, the original one.
