Bro, 95% of the things you post on this forum is repeating your wishlist over and over again, you do not get to call someone out on rephrasing something similar to what you said.

also, Byarlant custom on the way from HLJ. can't wait to get my hands on it and build it slowly and polish every single nub off.

Just letting you guys know that GG Infinite just created a new coupon to use at his store..

$10 off any order of $70 or more. Can only be used once person, address.

Code: ggcoupon

It expires 12/31/2012 so use it fast.

LOL. That was a nice one, man. :D

Yeah, like he's one to talk about the pointless-ness of repeating what he said when he's doing exactly that all the time with his wishlist. But hey, at least he admits that repeating what he said is pointless, LOL :D

My point is, I'm making him try to order in "Hobbywave" even though he doesn't have personal experience ordering from it YET because he can only gain the experience if he tries.

Your point is to make him order from GG because YOU have personal experience ordering to them that you gained because YOU TRIED.

Don't feed the troll guys, he's just sucking up to GG.

And Znozzy, yeah, I just realised the heck load of visible nubs on the Byarlant Custom! Oh well. Is there a reason why Bandai doesn't try to undergate parts? Or even make nubs less visible for that matter. I guess they're just lazy.

Wow, didn't expect my questions would end up causing arguments, lol. Can't we all just get along? We obviously all love Gunpla, so that should be enough reason for us to settle any differences :)

That said, thanks everyone for the suggestions! I'll look into all the options presented and see which works best for my situation.

Thanks again! You guys are great!

Don't worry, Meeses. Almost everybody here is getting along well. If there's a certain someone who don't, that's because he ask for it himself ;).

How am I sucking up to GG if I'm offering you guys and exclusive coupon code? GG is not going to post this himself on the blog so why not use this as a chance to save some money on GUNPLA this holiday season?

What's wrong with that?:twitch:

Hey guys whats a good MG thats less than $50, have a stand (or poses on the ground insanely well), and is no older than 2004? Open to any suggestions as long as it is not a GM unit (sorry GM fans but I hate the GM visor for some reason)

The price in Dollars depends on each store, so I’ll just go with kits which are cheaper than 5000 yen and which can pose well on the ground:

• Any of the new Wing EW MGs
• MG Wing Gundam TV version
• The new GAT-X series MGs (Duel, Buster, & Blitz) don’t know if Aegis can stand well or not.
• Any variation of MG AGE-1
• MG RX-178 Gundam Mk.II TITANS or AEUG
• MG Strike Noir
• MG Turn-A Gundam
• MG RX-78-2 ver. One Year War
• MG Destiny Gundam (non Full Blast)
• MG Crossbone Gundam X1 (ver KA or Full Cloth)
• MG Gundam F91 (white or blue)
• MG Victory Gundam ver. KA
• Any variation of MG Impulse Gundam (Sword or Force) Force is stable when you pose it without the jetpack

If you like mono-eye MSs, you can go with:

• Any version/variation of MG ZAKU II 2.0
• MG Gouf 2.0

Here's a good source for you to decide..

http://gundam.wikia.com/wiki/Master_Grade

Go there. Search 2004. From there you can see which ones you like.
$50 (US Dollars) equals to about ¥3972 these days. So that doesn't leave you with much of a choice.

You can go buy a kit from GG Infinite from now through 12/31 and use the code ggcoupon for $10 off an order of $70 at least.

Not many MG (if any) come with a stand. Just get an Action Base 1.

Anyway, the ones you can choose according to your criteria...

XXXG-01W Wing Gundam Ver.Ka
RMS-099 Rick Dias
ZGMF-X10A Freedom Gundam
MBF-02 Strike Rouge --> ¥4000
XXXG-00W0 Wing Gundam Zero Custom
RX-78-2 Gundam Ver. One Year War 0079
MSN-00100 "Hyaku-Shiki + Ballute System"
RX-178 Gundam Mk-II Ver.2.0 --> ¥4000
RX-178 Gundam Mk-II Ver.2.0 (Titans)
F91 Gundam F91
XM-X1 Crossbone Gundam X-1 Ver.Ka
F91 Gundam F91 (Harrison Martin's)
GN-001 Gundam Exia
LM312V04/06 Victory Gundam "Ver.Ka"
XXXG-01W Wing Gundam --> ¥4000
LM312V04(B-part)+SD-VB03A Core Booster Ver.Ka
XXXG-01S Shenlong Gundam EW
XXXG-01W Wing Gundam EW
XXXG-01SR Gundam Sandrock EW
XXXG-01H Gundam Heavyarms EW
AGE-1 Gundam AGE-1 Normal
AGE-1T Gundam AGE-1 Titus
AGE-1S Gundam AGE-1 Spallow
GAT-X207 Blitz Gundam --> ¥4000
AGE-2 Gundam AGE-2 Normal --> ¥4200
GAT-X103 Buster Gundam
AGE-2DH Gundam AGE-2 Dark Hound --> ¥4200
OZ-00MS Tallgeese EW

Those are the kits that you could potentially choose from based on the price range. The ones where I noted a ¥ price is those kits that went over your ¥ price range (roughly converted from the ¥ to $ rate for today).

I hope that helps a little.
I bolded the kits I think you might enjoy.

Have you built the mk. II 2.0 ? if not, go with that one, its beautiful with just some panel lining. Beautiful build, superb innerframe and it comes with a dock-like stand that you can connect with the Zeta 2.0s " stand " aswell.

AND IT CAN COME IN TITAN COLORS TOO.

everybody loves titan colors

Creepy how you got my like list mostly right O.o though theres two exceptions, 1. I LOVE Wing Gundam TV version, I have a special spot for it and as such bought the MG the instant it hit Ebay (it was the very first gundam I laid eyes on and that came through my dad buying me an action figure of it when I was like 6) and I really love the MK-II

Thanks btw!

Thanks! As a side note I like some mono eyed units, however there are very few I would willingly buy at MG price, and those I would, is either too expensive or I'm too afraid to build (Sinanju in particular(

So from the recommendations my initial MG list to choose from so far is:

MG RX-78-2 OYW Anime Colors
MG 2.0 Gundam MK-II AEUG
MG Freedom (Maybe worried about fragile wings)
MG Wing Zero EW (Maybe, I heard it got some serious hand and feather problems)\
MG Sandrock EW
MG Blitz
MG Strike (Whats the IWSP price btw? I prefer it over the Aile, and it haz a stand from what I believe)
MG AGE-2 DH (the only AGE lead I would ever consider getting in MG)

For the DH and Blitz Im a bit concerned about the nubs......every dark colored kit I build (HGUC Banshee in particular) gives me hell with the nubs, how do you guys get about it? I dont paint, just cut, sand a bit, then color over

Wing (TV) is definitely a good one, liked building that one (Like Skye, Wing holds special value, for being the lead of the first gundam series I've ever watched, about ten years ago)
And while I haven't built it yet, Qan[T] looks simply amazing, and is a recommendation for that alone (also posing, lots of posing)

Strike IWSP is 4200 yen compared to Aile Strike which is 3800 yen. And yes, Strike IWSP comes with a stand.

MG Strike and Freedom are good kits if you don’t mind peg-less hands. And Freedom’s wings aren’t that fragile IMO.

Any of the Wing EW MG kits (Heavyarms, Deathscythe, Deathscythe Hell, Shenlong, Sandrock) is a sure treat.

For cleaning nubs, I only use a file and some markers with matching colors. As for my HGUC Banshee, here’s the result:
Dynamic tag cannot be rendered. (PrintableThread) I didn’t sand it whatsoever since it will leave some ugly marks on clear parts.

Agreed with using a file. Anyone who doesn't use primer should stick to files. Been using it since day 1 and it's worked great for me.

both the Aile Strike and IWSP comes with a stand. IWSP is much better imo, the inner frame is slightly more detailed than the Aile.

Among the list , here's my short review

MG RX-78-2 OYW Anime Colors - didnt do but have done the ver 2.0 which has more weapons than oyw ver
MG 2.0 Gundam MK-II AEUG - HD ver resolve the unturnable wraist issue else the kit is solid
MG Freedom (Maybe worried about fragile wings) - the wings are heavy & cause the kit to sag to the back if you do not do the HiMat mode
MG Wing Zero EW (Maybe, I heard it got some serious hand and feather problems) - the feather is kinda loose else everything is just alright
MG Sandrock EW - Great kit, nothing much to complain
MG Blitz - Another great kit with lots of pose to do also
MG Strike (Whats the IWSP price btw? I prefer it over the Aile, and it haz a stand from what I believe) - So far i have done Aile,IWSP, Strike Noir . IWSP pack is bigger than Aile Pack, IWSP comes with Wing EW stand . In terms of pose i wld suggest Strike Noir/Strike E + IWSP
MG AGE-2 DH (the only AGE lead I would ever consider getting in MG - so far only done MG Age-2 , the legs & hand pegs can be quite loose & the arms can't really handle the dodds rifle weight

I gotta say, the Delta Gundam Kai looks pretty goddamn sweet. If I was brave enough to try building it a kit, that would be my first one. Kinda reminds me of the Gundams from G-Savouir.
