Scientist Says Building Gundam Models Makes You Smarter


http://www.escapistmagazine.com/imag...play/65645.jpg

Quote:

A Neuroscience professor at Suwa Tokyo Science University has found that building lots of tiny plastic robots could make you a genius.

If you've ever stopped by my desk here at The Escapist HQ (or seen it in any of our Escapist Presents videos) you know this: I have a lot of little plastic robots cluttering up my desktop. And to be honest, I've always considered myself to be a pretty darn smart guy. I used to wonder if the two were related, and now I have incontrovertible proof that they are.

Well, it's like incontrovertible proof. It's science - that's the same thing, right?

Not surprising at all.

Looks like I have a reason to build some now.

I'll start out with...the PG 00 Raiser. :D

I can't wait for Angelo Sauper's custom Geara Zulu, the normal Geara Zulus don't really interest me, but the fuel tanks, shield, big gun, the spikes and the colour scheme are great, though I might think about my own custom colour for it.

Sir Dearka 2010-06-13 11:07

I even think about purchasing Angelo Sauper's Zulu myself. Though I love the design and color of original Zulu, this one got me with its big gun and cool pods.

Just decided that I shall get a MG to celebrate my moving to the new very own flat. Since the Color scheme is mainly red, white and black i was thinking about getting Sinanju or Unicorn. I won't get both, so what do you guys think... Red or white? ;)

I'd say get the Sinanju, Red is always a way to go. To many white / grey gundams plus you can't beat the gold and black that goes with it. Long live Char. haha :)

vektar 2010-06-13 18:53

After months of sitting in my closet i decided to pull out my PG 00 and build it. I fully painted it with tamiya spray paints and hand paints. Most of the decals came from old MG decals i had just sitting there. Took me a total of 3 weeks from start to finish and as of now i have not built the 0 raiser nor do i plain on too any time soon because i think its ugly. I changed mine up a bit too see if you can guess what it is, not really all that hard to do.

Transformation requires massive parts-swapping. And in order to accomodate the core fighter to compliment the transformation gimmick, the flexibility you have come to expect for most HG kit is reduced to a new low for the HGUC ZZ. The only positive point he can give is that it looks good. Now do you still feel like folking out cash for once ?

transformation doesnt really care for me as i wld be fixing it as a MS not MA :heh: even if i want to have it turn MA mode i cash in for another set which i had done for previous HG kits i grab (zeta, kyrios,arios, etc ) :eyespin:

i only have 2 transformable kits the 144 0 riser and the andy waltfeld gundam. i keep the 0 riser on the 00 gundam just to save space and the poses. i think i only had my gaia gundam in MS mode twice for photos. i usually keep it in MA mode as imo it looks better that way. i really only got the gaia gundam for the MA mode. i havent bothered yet to get any doubles aside from size scales and variations on the suits.

If that's the review, then I'm forking out cash for the ZZ anyway. The ZZ's design inherently doesn't lend itself to poseability anyhow unless you apply PG-esque techniques to it (even the Master Grade ZZ wasn't as poseable as its counterparts), and I'd prefer stability and presentability over playability, hence the parts swapping isn't much a problem for one such as myself who keeps his Gundams statically displayed for days on end (especially now that I use them to adorn my PC Rental business).

And lest it be said that it is an HGUC ZZ: I've waited for about a decade to get my old HG 1/144 ZZ replaced. :heh:

Edit:

Speaking of reviews, Dalong's review of the HGUC 1/144 ZZ. Also includes comparision with the old HG 1/144. Oh the nostalgia...

It's a 'bit' misleading, because the Masurao is quite tall for a HG, apparently though I don't have that many, so I can't really tell.

Dynamite 2010-06-19 16:01

I might sound kinda weird saying this, but doesn't the 1/144 G Gundam look like it has some pretty big thighs?

Well it's normal that the God Gundam is smaller, as the G Gundam MS, as well as all those from the shows ranging from F91 to X, were in the 15 m range.

Seed and 00 MS are in the 18-20m range, like their UC pre-F91 predecessors. The transition occurred in UC during F91, with modern compact MS outclassing their bulky forebears. As for why all the following series were in the same range, maybe it was in order to produce less plastic hungry gunpla :heh:.
