My only suggestions are to have a bit of glue for the cloth cables, and a small amount of plastic glue to cement in any loose parts. just a warning though, DO NOT seal any seams between leg plates, as they're intended to slide past eachother, and gluing the seams shut will make it impossible for the thing to pose below the waist.

I also like building them one section a time. I usually take a 15-20 minute break before starting on a new section. Through experience, I learned that straight-building a kit in "marathon" usually ends up in a messy, undedicated piece of crap... you know, ugly panel lining and rough sprue cut, most of the time. =/ (At least for me... )

I've dealt with these when I built my MG Kampfer a few years ago. I'm not sure if they're made of the same materials, though, but I'm pretty sure I'll be able to handle them like I did with my Kampfer. I used my Grandma's ultra-electro-magnetic sharp scissors! =O

got Astray Blue Frame yesterday, it will be my first fully painted kit, I tried a different colo scheme, gonna repaint all the white/orange part red, and the blue parts black, I finished part of the sword so far. I need more patience to let the paint dry lol, my place is kinda dusty so the paint didnt turn out quiet clean. Is there anyway to keep fresh painted kit from dust? like some sort of coating I can use?

Spoiler for recolor:

Actually we need 5 more, the High Mobility Type A, Type B, and the Type B Sergei Custom, and Long Range Shooting Type

It's good that unlike with most Grunt MS, these Tierens actually have significantly different parts to justify their releases.

i'm hoping for that also......

Interesting, according to those blueprints of the MG Force Impulse, the waist can bend like beckham. Take that, my PG RX-78 of the last century. Your waist is so frail and you can't even bend over to tie your shoes. Cry out, oh PG RX-78, cry for thy Ver 2.0

MG Impulse's waist is exactly the same as Destiny's , and I have the feelings that they will do that the 1st time I heard info about MG Impulse , so no surprise at all

What do you mean? MG Impulse has nothing in common with the Destiny Gundam. The bending waist is an achievement considering the MG Impulse will have a functioning Core Splendor system.

nw you mention it, it seems possible........i dun mind getting it for destiny impulse...

[Rey Za Burrel]

I wonder if we can attach MG Destiny's pack to MG Force Impulse or not
if it can be attached to Impulse , then someone will try to paint the Impulse in light purple , along with Des's pack to let it become Destiny Impulse

Most likely, since the rumor version 2.0 of the RX-78-2 was said to have a core system. If they can successfully make an inner frame capable of superb flexibility and be able to hold a core fighter inside at the same time, then that would be one of the biggest achievement in the history of MG. XD We'd also probably see the release of core-fighter types suits like Victory Gundam, for example.

I wouldnt mind a Long Range Tieren Model

[Sir Dearka]

I have less than two months to get and assemble HG Aegis and MG Freedom before MG Impulse STRIKES the shelves

Sheesh, I think I'll just listen to some wise people and really register in hlj... They are more trustworthy than e-bay sellers or so I've heard.
