I do own the 1.5 version of the Gundam. I'm not really fond of it. The only real difference between the 1.0 and the 1.5 is the inner frame for the legs, I believe. The rest of the kit can't stand up to today's standards IMO. The OYW-Version is a big improvement over them. I actually used the Hands of the 1.5 for my 1/100 HG Tallgeese to give it some better hands |

I'm not fond of of getting multiply models of same one but more than I hate having mismatched scales within their respective series. For instance all my 00 gundam are HG and it will stay that way, don't want any MG in there ruining the collection even if they do appeal to me greatly. Or I won't be getting any HG for the likes of SEED or Unicorn since I already have MGs for them, again don't want the HG mixed in their. There exceptions but very certain ones. Being anal about it all has it's ups and down but I like things to look the part Just like with MMORPGs, I rarely use top end stuff cause they tend to look fugly but the stuff that come just before it tend to be alot nicer looking and therefore I use them. I couldn't care if I go down in a blaze of glorious fire, I'll still look better than the person that takes me down

I would really like a model line of The Origin suits.
Not like the GFF RX-78 metal composite figure, which was just a regular RX-78 with little shoulder bits added. The Origin Gundam has a unique body proportion with more rounded edges and softer details, as well as being slimmer and more agile looking. And the Origin Zakus are way bulkier and wider than the originals, with a flatter head and a more squat appearance. Not to mention the Origin Guntank looking like a complete badass.

Been gone quite a while. So, I’ve read the pages from my last post. It seems that Nike has made a ruckus again. (Sigh....)
@duotiga. Ah, so you bought that resin too. I’m kinda curious whether the Swords are compatible with 00 Raisers hands or not. Also, I heard you need some glue in order to perfect it. Btw, your RG Justice looks cool. I kinda hope that you took more photos of it with more poses. As for RG Zeta, like many others has said here, I need to see the (video) review first to believe in the inner frame. I really doubt it will be solid. Heck, if it can stand without any problem, I’ll give it two thumbs up. Oh yeah. Here’s one more finished backlog from me. Nix Providence Gundam Spoiler for Size & Sum:

Agreed. Nix Providence is a case of “love it or hate it” Gundam kit. As for me, I like it. Mainly due to the color scheme which is a LOT better than the original Providence. Also, Nix shows off most of its Dragoons nicely, unlike the original that put most of the Dragoons on its waist (boring). My only gripe is the lack of articulation on the left (or right, from the MS’s POV) shoulder. Bandai should’ve added more joints on that Dragoon-Backpack shoulder.

I don't really like Seed designs, especially the providence, but that Nix version is pretty nice. I'm a sucker for asymmetrical designs and unique color schemes. It's like a reverse of the traditional Gundam, with a red chest and blue feet

Damn, I miss the old 1/100 NG's Back then, Bandai released Baddies in 1/00 Scale, not just Good Guys, like the Chaos for SEED Destiny, or the Flags for 00 S1. I really wish, that they start making them again. |

Maybe it's coz nowadays NGs are already advanced enough to be categorized as pseudo-MG. Also, the price is already near MG level. Prime example would be NG 00 Raiser, NG Virtue, & NG Seravee. So I guess Bandai thinks that doing NG and then MG is pretty redundant especially for the same model like Exia & 00.
Note: @StrikeFreedomV2. I did say that Nix color scheme is far better than the original Providence, but that doesn't mean I totally despise Providence's color.

This may be a noob question, but I'm still somewhat inexperienced with Gunpla with only a few High Grades under my belt, I've had a RG Freedom in my backlog for a fair while now (Freedom is my favourite Gundam so I bought it despite having no intention of building it soon) and I just wanted to ask which would be better for a noob such as myself build the RG Freedom or buy a Master Grade first and build that. Then build the RG once I have a rough idea of how the whole process goes with kits with an inner frame.

And good to here that about the original Providence @ Zeyda: I would recommend getting the MG Aile Strike Gundam, it's pretty good for it's age and really easy to build. Same goes for the MG Freedom. Most of the newer MG's are pretty easy to build as well, but seeing that you like the Freedom, I would go with the older kits |
