lol if i see Sir Dearka's models one more time.... :heh:


side question: for those who have MGs, anyone pain the pilot figure that actually sits in the pilot seat? I tried painting Freedom's Kira, and EB Destiny's Shinn, but the results were mixed.

How the hell does one paint those? With a freakin needle? :frustrated:

Like Optimus Prime ;) From ebay :)

Yup, both are Master Grades and my favorite ones.

ohhh -1. Thats Freedom vs IMPULSE :(

I'm planning on buying Master Grade Destiny

I never paint them. One time I wanted to paint a figure included with a kit was when I got the GN-Arms Type D, but then the mini Lockon was just too small for me to even star ;)

I haven't watched Seed Destiny yet guess thats -2 now huh

awwww. Actually wait, that's a +1. :heh:

lol im planing on watching it though lol so that still a -2
Where are you models Critias!

Yup. I read the post so quickly. Of course, the Freedom vs Impulse, as I always say :P are my favorite Master Grades so far.

Yup, got it, too:

I'm planning on a shot after all my MGs are done. I still gotta finish Wing Zero Custom, Wing Ver. Ka, Strike Noir, Strike+IWSP, SF FBM, and IJ.

Yeah I have a backlog. Sadly gunpla has to take a backseat to work. Real life responsibilities suck :upset:

Thats burst mode though right? My wife would kill me if i brought that lowest I seen it for was 70 from GSAM but with shipping its a extra what 10 bucks give or take image anime selling it for liek 115 ... on sale!
I think anything over 50 or so is a bit much for my models I MG Destiny from GSAM is 47.39 if I can ill grab that end of the month and the SD version of Destiny and chill on models till I finsh what I have. lol so ill have to finish Avalanch Exia (most definitly painting) Astrea Exia (no paint but panel lining) SD 00 (pannel and GMarker) MG Destiny (might paint) and SD Destiny (pannel and Gmarker

I've never been able to paint MG humans. I've gone over the helmet visors with a
fine-tipped sharpie, but that's as much as I'm really able to do.

What little advice I can give, though, is that if you've got a detail line (panel line, whatever) in the piece, a pilot in particular, just do the line as best you can with the fine-tipped marker, then rub along the line with your thumb. If done right, all the ink will rub off except for what's in the detail line.

It's a crappy tip, I know. I've got limited resources to work with... and it does work well enough when doing finer details...

The other new arrival, finally assembled - the Arios!

Now, to wait for the GN Archer to come back into stock...

You guys have quite the impressive collection. I'm slowly rebuilding my way up the ladder.

Sir Dearka, mind to share where you got the Lockon and Shinn figures? ^.^

may i ask where do people get those clear stands from lol, i live in aus and yeh i dont come across those, and are there soem for HCM's?

There's a "Figma" embedded on the stand's base, indicating that it's a base from Figma character figures.

We are A-Laws!

Robot Damashi version. Let see what I'm missing ;)

Those are nice unpainted correct? I really want Arios and I think that sealed the deal for me. I will try to pick one up I'm still going after MG Destiny and SD Destiny end of the month so I probally won't get him yet but hes on the list! :-)

w00t cracked open my Gashapon's last nite

Strike Freedom was really sweet for such a small char. And Spidey had some nice detail
Lol maybe I should panel line Freedom

What I like about Robot Damashii versions are the beam parts. They look erally decent. For now, it seems that Garazzo in HG will be so much worse without beam parts... Hope they'll surprize me.

On ebay, of course. :)


@Mr.Capcom - nice Spidey gashaphon. Strike Freedom looks somewhat cheap but well.. this is no plastic kit :D Though I am sometimes into buying rubber robot figures such as my Hybrid Mode Buster Gundam. On its stand, it actually looks pretty decent :)
