can't wait till tomorrow, gonna get the paint tomorrow, hopefully no sudden plan for the weekend :heh:

have fun painting it^^ and dont worry, tamiya black never gave me any problems so far. i always got a nice and smooth surface without any bubbles on the pieces.

also, like i said before here is a photo of my unicorn with the gatlings and also my other unicorn MGs :P

buidling the knock-off gatling guns sucked... the pieces really didnt fit well at all, especially after paining them. but at least they look ok with some paint :T
its also a shame that i cant put on the shield on either arm with the guns slapped on because they go into the same connector as the shield. and i really like the unicorns shield... but oh well, i can always just swap them when i want to^^

looking pretty good. too bad Bandai will never release add-on stuff on the side, it would be nice if they do.

true, that would be pretty neat :T but you are right, i highly doubt that they will ever do that...

however they don't mind to release a slightly different version of the same one over and over again. lol
like Zeong, then Perfect Zeong, like Striker then Sky Grasper...... then Rouge.......

yeah thats true^^ bandai really does love to give us the same molds over and over again :P but i wont complain about that because that means we will probably get the unicorn banshee, too!^^

and about those extra weapons, they probably dont release them because they were packed with books and magazines. maybe they simply cant release them for legal reasons.
but i can live with that. i can live perfectly fine without most of the extra parts and if i really do want one of those its not like we cant order the magazine that it comes with. and if worst comes to worst a knock off with some paint will work as well :P not as good but at least they are cheap. i paid 15€ for the 2 pairs of gatlings for example, including shipping.

i didn't know there's weapon come with magazine :confused:
which one is that? maybe i should try to look for them next time when i go NYC :D

there are many parts that come with japanese hobby magazines or novels.
the GN sword IV for the HG OOQ came with hobby japan for example. i think they also had the parts to make the GM wagtail.
the gatling guns for the unicorn and the bazooka for the sinanju came with certain gundam unicorn novels.

i see. now when will i go NYC next time......:p

God this thing is beautiful!

definitely getting that to my growing GM army!! Heck In UC. Gundams wins battles but Gm's wins the wars!!

Hah, that's a good one!

so i went and got the paint today, but now my new project is to clean up my room a bit before i could put more, so i guess the painting will have to postone at least another week....... anyway, i'm now about to say goodbye to all the boxes that i have been collecting.............. before i toss them out i'll take a picture of them. now simply stack them up one by one, just by looking at it, it feel like i went to a model kit store

thats why i just cut off the cover art of the box :P that way i can throw away the rest and still keep the nice box art ^^

that's what i'm gonna do from now on......:sad:

the top part is the only important part of the box anyway :P on the sides you just have information like how you could pose it and stuff like that.
i do keep 3 boxes to store supplies though. 2 for extra parts and the manuals and one for my paints.

if only i have more space. i sure don't want to trash them,some of them been with me for more than decade.
by the way, how many kits do you actually have?

counting the O raiser seperately and the exia avalanche dash that i still have to put together i have 28 models. 16 master grades, 6 1/144 high grades, 4 1/100 no grades, 1 real grade and 1 perfect grade.

my master grades are:
aile strike
freedom
strike freedom
exia ignition mode
OO raiser
OO Qan[t]
MK-II 2.0 AEUG colors
shin musha gundam sengoku no jin

sinanju ver.ka titanium finish

wing gundam EW
deathscythe hell EW
wing zero

ginn high maneuver
exia avalanche' (dash)

my no grades are:
OO gundam
O raiser

my only real grade model is the RX-78-2 and my perfect grade is the astray red frame.

other models that i have but that i have in the same shelf are the kotobukiya 1/144 ikaruga hitekkai, an armored core model that i still have to finish and the revell USS voyager :P

its not really a big collection but i suppose its quite alright for someone who is just collecting them for less than a year^^

not bad at all, since you only collect it in less than a year, if you keep this up, you would have more than me in no time.

the problem is that im running out of space again :P i dont even know whether i will collect them that much in the future or not. i dont really collect them anyway, i just build them for the fun of it^^
