Major yes for RG Freedom!!
kind of expected that RG Freedom would come out...so I held off my plan from buying RG strike XD I like freedom more than strike freedom (but I like infinite justice more than justice)...can't wait!! |

however, i dont really like one thing about the RG line: the frame is always the same. you just pop on different armor pieces! if you have built one of them you have built them all. i might get the RG zaku II massproduction type because i dont have a zaku yet but thats it :P |

the frame parts are always on a single B plate. the RX-78-2's frame: http://dalong.net/review/hg/rg01/p/rg01_r08.jpg chars zaku II: http://dalong.net/review/hg/rg02/p/rg02_r07.jpg aile strike: http://dalong.net/review/hg/rg03/p/rg03_r07.jpg see? they are all almost identical. but even if they were different it wouldnt really matter because you dont have to put them together :P you cut off the pieces, bend them to losen up the joints a little, twist a few pieces and then you put on the armor. its the same for all RG kits. |

but i will get Aile Strike and Freedom, since i don't have those on 1/144. come to think of it, it seem these RG kit also have PG, so would that mean we might see Wing, Z, Mk.II, and Astray as well?, that could be nice |
Quote:
and since all they have to do is change the armor pieces and modify the frame a tiny bit pretty much all gundams are possible as an RG kit! thats the advantage of that frame. well, transforming suits might be a problem though :P |

talking about freedom...did freedom in other grade have any balance issue because the wing/cannon is too heavy??
One of the reason I held off from buying strike is because of the balance issue I suspect it may have...my hg infinite justice is barely hanging on with a stand...so I hope freedom in RG won't have any balance issue |

http://i1138.photobucket.com/albums/...8/DSC05034.jpg but for PG, i afraid it might fall down while i was away, so i have it kneel, lol http://a7.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/photo...77090.jpg?dl=1 since the sword was so huge my shelf couldn't fit that. but once i bought the Sky Grasper which come with the stand so no need to care about the balance issue anymore, lol http://a2.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/photo...71478.jpg?dl=1 |
thanks for the advice!! those models look great!!
My hg infinite justice has a stand too...but the annoying part is that backpack (I keep it in full-flight mode) keeps weighting down so the cannon on the backpack keeps hitting the yellow fin of inf justice...in fact now it's just the yellow fin of the inf justice that keeps the backpack attached to the body..(sounds really weird, I know)...so just wondering whether will freedom also suffer the weight issue on the back it would be nice if I can finally assemble "freedom and justice" with RG freedom XD |
As long as I recall, Freedom doesn't have any grave balance issues with its wings. I only have the MG, but I've check my friend's HG 1-100 & 1-144 Freedom and they're fine (as long as you don't play the joint TOO often). I don't know about the Freedom RG & HG 1-60 though, but surely the RG's frame will be better than most of the HGs.

Oddly enough I have more trouble posing my RX-78(with the bazooka on it's back) than I do with the Strike :uhoh: |
Really? Wow, now that's an input since I don't have any experience with RGs yet.
|
the MG freedoms weight issues arent bad. it does have them but it can stand on its own depending on how you position the wings and legs.
|
so i finally start working on my MG Deathscythe Hell, just finish painting the first coat, even tho i paint it out door, but once i bring the pieces back inside the whole room smell, lol
anyway, i'm about to do the second coat now. here is a question..... when do i do the top coat? since i'm gonna just paint the black part, do i assemble the whole kit then apply the top coat? or i apply the top coat before assemble? that's i'm still not so sure |
Quote:
the top coat might also get stuck in joints and you wont be able to move it well anymore when you apply it after putting the model together :P |
i c, thanks for clearing that. hopefully will get it done tonight

the guy said that for shinny look then go with the glossy, but for realistic look, go with Flat. by the way, i just finish the top coat right after your last reply, i still have question on if i should top coat those that i didn't paint anything? like those White or Grey part? |
