Any way to keep it secure and still mobile? :heh:

sorry dont have any idea

Keep what secure and mobile? The red cyrstal? If you want it to stop falling out, put a small drop of glue in the whole where you insert the crstal, and that's it.

Super glue is super strong stuff, once it dries, there is NO undoing it.

I don't know,try a small bit of regular paper glue and see.They're ususally strong enough to keep it there but still you can force it out if you want to move it.Superglue is permanant.

Still,be wary of the type of glue.Different glue can have different effects but what I'm suggesting is you find the weakest glue ever and then apply small amount of it.Its a small piece,you dont need something too strong.

For the record,my HG Cherudim's one was......simply lost.So ys I've felt this problem too.

Try my suggestions are your own risk,I've never tried it on the HG Cherudim's red crystal yet.But I usually do it for other small things that need a little bit of cohesiveness,like the hand plates that hold weapons.They tend to get lose over time,especially HG 00 Gundams hand in my opinion.

I've always had bad experience with superglue.Whenever I do something with it,it always gives me something bad.Superglue is my kryptonite.

Hm that's odd....because superglue saves me from my kryptonie. Which is, loose joints and pieces faling off.

thanks for the tips. unfortunately i don't have any gold chrome kits aside from amatsu, i don't think i'll be getting anytime soon either :(. sometimes to cover tabs i put some paint on and immediately wipe off most of it. it might leave just enough of a tinge to use the silver as a plating background.

super glue saved me once when i dropped my 100 lunamaria zaku gunner. the white section of the leg thrusters broke, the glue did the trick.

wow talk about "armed and loaded" XD

Ahh..my freshly build 1/144 00 Raiser with GN Sword III.What a great model kit,i just love that GN Sword III i build it first before assembling other part.:D I haven't do the panel line yet & i keep that v fin white coz the sticker just awful on it. I like white gundam XD.

I think i would post the 1/100 Cherudim & 1/144 Reborns Gundam pics when i get hold of any camera.Reborn gundam just make me nervous with it transformation to Cannon mode.:upset:

Hate to tell you this, but you built part of it wrong. I don't know what you call them, but the two blue fins on each side of the O-Raiser wings are upside down. The parts that move, or are retractable whatever. Just look at the manual and you'll see what I mean. Unless of course you planned to do it that way, then by all means completely ignore this post.

Thanks..i've fix it.Well i built it around 3 am in the morning..so i'm prone to make mistake.Thanks again for informing me about it.:D

Question,if I were to mix clear red and clear blue,would it give me clear purple?

By the way,ravnen,how much time did you take to make that HG 00 Raiser?

Nope. Mixing those two alone will only give you a very dark purple, almost black. You'll need some clear paint as well.

This saviour looks gd

The new Saviour looks like a new version of Zeta. Can anyone else see it or am i seeing things?

Well I take only 5 hours to fully assemble all the part & sticker.That is of course without the panel lining.I must say the kit it very much easy to assemble,had to carefull while assembling the head,coz it had small part that can be easily broken.


Wow nice saviour, the color remind me of Amuro Zeta gundam.:D

Only because the webmaster modified it with the zeta mouthpiece and painted it in the white unicorn colors.

The vent saviour does not look like this out of the box.

No problem! Always happy to help :) On another happy note, I just got the 1/144 Arche Gundam :D Can't wait to build it!

Hmmm,I did it anyway without checking for the response.What you said was true but I was happy with the result nonetheless[It did look black on the surface though].It was a bit on the dark side,but it was clear purple nontheless,and I guess it sort of fits on the the Reborns I', buildings anyways.

I do have one or 2 bottles of clear,so I guess I could have used it,I guess I just didnt know how until the advice you gave me.

Thanks for the advice,will be useful for future experiments with clear colors.The default saber pink tone,I'm not very satisfied with so I guess I'll try that out next with some clear red,bit of white and some clear.

There was a long time ago I tried to mix pink and clear to get clear pink and failed miserably,looking back I feel like an idiot.

Had high hopes for the HG Arche.Not bad but I guess it had some pose restirctions.

I was very unhappy with the red,so since the 2 times I've built it,I had to use my custom dark red twice and replace the goldenbrown parts with silver..Good practice with the airbrush I guess,since its my first pre-built spary kit.

Note for those getting the PG 00 Raiser:

Warning from Bandai regarding the optional clear parts set (sold separately):
In order to build a Perfect Grade 00 Raiser using all of the clear armor parts, an unbuilt 00 Raiser kit is needed. (In other words, you have to add the parts as you build, and cannot add all of them later once the model has been assembled.)
If you try to remove the armor parts from an already-built PG 00 Raiser, you will find there are some parts that physically cannot be removed, and some other parts are likely to be broken if you try to forcibly remove them. Therefore some parts absolutely cannot be replaced if starting with an already-built model. Your understanding on this point will be appreciated. Also, there is a risk of breaking the clear parts contained in the original PG 00 Raiser kit, and these clear parts are not included in the clear armor parts set.
Due to the nature of the material used in the clear armor parts set, once a PG 00 Raiser has been assembled using the clear armor parts, there is risk of damage if you attempt to remove the clear armor parts and replace them. The clear armor parts cannot be removed and replaced after they are put onto the model.

Wow i like Arche,too bad my local kit shop does'nt have the 1/144 heavy weapon cherudim. From the review on Youtube,Arche kit does look promising,maybe at the end month i would buy Arche.:D

Well if i ever buy PG 00 Raiser,I would discard the clear parts.The normal PG 00 Raiser is already awesome with its detail & articulation.:heh:

yeah when i bought the PG raiser off HLJ, the clear parts notice came up but i wasnt planning to get it anyway, like the cost of the clear parts including shipping, i can buy like another MG kit for that money and you cant part swap so if i want to change back to the normal colours, i wouldnt be able to do it

anyways looking forward to getting my PG raiser hopefully by tuesday next week... OMG I CANT WAIT.... MY FIRST PG, THIS IS GONNA BE SOOOOOOOO AWESOME

Looky what I gotty!

hoping that 1 day you will experience the joy of buliding a gunpla shounen!

Eh, I have no patience to build kits...it's never been my forte.

Hehehe I used to build a lot but my current living situation makes it impossible.

If only I can make parts flow in the air XD

Wow nice..it's Robot Damashii right.I like the GNX III,look awesome.Maybe someday i would buy a RD,my local shop only had the ms from UC timeline.

00 Raiser vs Reborns Gundam..

HG Arche is awesome. Since I'm not a Gunpla painter, I sort of improvised a lot for my Arche - I used liquid paper (lol) for the white parts and the Fangs, because the stickers didn't turn out so good. And the liquid paper doesn't look half bad, IMHO.

As for poseability, the only problem was doing the pose with its 2 leg Beam Sabers. The Fang containers are just so heavy, they simply weigh down the legs.

I just finished building my MG Exia Ignition Mode. I'm pretty much a bit of a noob as I can't paint. Here's a pic of it:
I gave Exia Cloud's buster sword just for fun.

Nice Exia,the sword look so awesome on it.:D I wonder if Bandai would release another MG Exia that can be turn into Exia R2.I would love to buy a MG Exia R2.

Thanks, this is already my 4th Exia(HG 1/144, NG 1/100, NG 1/100 Avalanche Exia) and I'm still searching for the R2 and the roll-out versions.(I really love Gundam Exia:heh:) I can't seem to find them in my local shops.

I'll be posting more pics in the near future when I have the chance.

Will HG Seraphim beams fit into HG Exia beamsaber handles?

No they won't as the saber parts are different. Exia's uses a flat beam blade as Seraphim uses a rounded one. If you want to put a beam blade into Exia's beam saber hilts, buy either the Virtue or the Nadleeh.

Too bad. Here in Poland the only options are importing or buying one of about 5 currently availible models. Though both Virtue/Nadleeh are both availible, they are already built models for the price of new kits, so I don't want to buy them.

So here's another question: Will Seraphim's handles fit in Exia's hands?

They will, as their hands are similar in size and type. Heck, you could even put them in SEED kits as well.

So this will do. Thanks. I could actually import a Nadleeh, but I have to get it before the 20th, and customs office in Poland is sometimes a bitch so I don't want to risk. I'll propably get Nadleeh later, because I actually like how it looks.

Glad to be of service.

Are there any confirmed differences between the HG 1/144 Susanowo and Masurao other than the weapons/equipment? I was wondering if the proportions of the Masurao will look better.
