Oh dear.. My 00 kits in MG.. Exia Exia (Ignition Mode) 00 Raiser 00 Raiser 7 Sword G 00 Qan[T] Waiting for MG Exia R2 and MG 00 Qan[T] ELS. Those 2 would make my 00 series MG kits complete. :eyespin: :heh: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-_PD7z0Ez-c&hd=1 |
isnt R2 basically Exia with 2 Beam sabers, new back skirt? and the Raiser's GN sword?

Also, the blue on the armor is a different shade, thigh parts are different, etc Here's some picture differences. Exia (front) http://images.wikia.com/gundam/image...Front_View.jpg Exia Repair 2 (front) http://images.wikia.com/gundam/image...Front_View.jpg Exia (back) http://images.wikia.com/gundam/image..._Back_View.jpg Exia Repair 2 (back) http://images.wikia.com/gundam/image..._Back_View.jpg Basically, I'm a bit shocked that we still don't have a MG release for Exia R2. Sure it doesn't show up much in the series, but they made an SD and HG for it so why not an MG? It's a lead and for the most part, Bandai could get away with reusing most of the MG Exia and MG 00 Raiser parts. |
Has anyone built the HG Genoace Custom, G-Exes, and G-Bouncer? Why is it that the waist and shoulder connections feel really loose? How do I tighten that up a bit?

i was just trying to assemble the foot for my nebula blitz (repainted to original black/red scheme) and the 1 tab broke on the heel jutting out from the back of the sole. i'll have to super glue the thing on once i deal with the clearance issue. i have 3 coats of Humbrol paint (white, black matt cote) on the 2 peices. the 2 pegs were cleaned of excess paint but the fit is very tight on the peg holes they're supposed to go in. i tried putting the peice upside down to test the fit. looks like some matt cote got into thepeg holes. is there anything i can do? i cant even get a tool inside to ream it. i used a drill bit to ream it clean and then screwed it up more when applying some plastic cement. now both tabs are broken inside. is the only option to superglue it? the peice in question is the 30degree angle ankle armour in the back.

i can buy super glue (none atm) or use some aquarium silicone (have lots atm) which is pretty solid when it finally hardens. i just remebered about my AQ silicon. i think the AQ silicone will be the better choice as i can remove it if i play enough to remove it later on. ive used some aq silicone to fix a broken tail on a painted glass figurine from years ago and it solid enough. it still annoys me that i overlooked such a stupid detail to fit the peice in. the kit will still take lots of time for me to complete. ive done all purple areas ans 90% of red areas. the legs are nearly comlpete and hip is assemble though i havent put on the hip armour. complete repaints usually do that for me. most of the time i keep the stock colours and match the paint to avoid stickers (minus the eyes if possible). the variantion armour will be painted to go with the normal Blitz scheme |
Has bandai named a release date for the age 3 fortress hg?

I need some advice on using sandpaper. Is there a special technique to do it? Haven't been building gunpla kits in a long, long, while, and recently I tried using sandpaper to remove nub marks off some of my old gunpla kits. In the past I used a file and it worked great for me, but many seem to be using sandpaper so I figured I'd give it a try. But when I use sandpaper, the area around the nub gets all scratched up as well, something I didn't have a problem with using a file. (Or rather, the file covered up the area around the nub better, and doesn't leave ugly scratch marks.) Help, anyone?
