Pretty nice videos, now I wish some of the well-known english reviewers would do something like a "Let's Build" that isn't as detailed as this, but gets to feature some interesting stuff (hiding seamlines, priming, and again, how to apply different types of decals)...these videos were really good and graphic, but I always learn more if I can understand the language of the instructions and comments (and english isn't even my main language)


BTW Jackyng222, loved your Kamille and Char

The Gold frame is 1/100. I think that's the only scale the Amatu is available at anyway.

And I believe the base is from Gundam Mk-II MG (might be wrong). It does look much better with the Amatu though. I always found it looks strange with the MkII ^^;

The badass Exia Repair is coming!

[JayCee]

Just to confirm MK II MG does not have a base kit. Base kits usually have to be bought seperately as shown by the Kotobukiya Mechanical Chain Base sets. As far as I know no gunplay kits do have bases included in the kits. Only display stands are usually included in the kits. But feel free to correct me

One of the Ver2.0 MkII kits does have a hangar stand. I think it's the AEUG one.

Half correct. Only reason I know is I have MG grade MK II. I can confirm, well 99% certain anyway that they don't have hangar for any MG grade as of the moment. Only exception to the rule is the PG grade MK II which has a hangar. It is noteable that it's often PG grade kits come with extra goodies as such. But it's expected with the huge price tag that goes with PG grade kits.

However the earlier version of MK II does have a launch pad if I recall correctly.

It is a Kotobukiya base. As far as I recall, no. 4. But I'm not sure about it.

I was thinking of buying Lunamaria's and Rey's Zaku, but in 1/100 to support the MG Impulse :P

Subarunyon is right: It's a 1/100 HG. Great stuff :]

Generally, it is just as JayCee says:
