Gunpla usually have 1/144, 1/100 and 1/60 scale 1/144: FG - First Grade - not much paint job done on them, really easy to assemble (under 10 USD) HG - High Grade - more detailed, more paint job done more parts than FG (around 15 USD, expensive ones are 40 max ) 1/100: MG - Master Grade - much more detailed than HG, has it's own skeleton, cockpit. (usually above 40 USD, some of them are close or over 100 Hi-Nu/Sazani/EX) 1/100 - larger version of High Grade, got a bit more parts than HG (above 20 USD) 1/60: PG - Perfect Grade - never built PG myself, but from what i've seen it is much much more detailed than MG, some of them came with internal LEDs. (over 100 USD) 1/60 - larger version of MG |

I've had the 1/100 Freedom Gundam kit sitting in its box in my closet for 4 years now, and the other night I finally decide to put it together, and notice it says I need an X-acto or cutters which I don't have DOH!
Hopefully it's not another 4 years for me to buy one to do it now ;D |

lol, i always use X-acto knife for gunpla, other than when I was 10, i used to twist parts off or use a pair of normal thick edged scissor :P I am just curious, which tools did u ususally use? |

I had just heard that the non-MG/PG ones could be snapped together. Or do I need glue for the 1/100? For 00 so far I like the Flag and Exia, but don't really care for any of the others atm. |

check it out http://www.dalong.net/review/seed.htm you dont need glue for any kit unless you make a mistake or want more stability. if you just want to assemble straight out of the box, you dont need much. actually in the beginning all i used was a pair of nail clippers and an exacto knife and the knife was optional! |

It took them this long to release the Enact? And it's not even a normal Enact; they're custom. I want my AEU Enact...! On the other hand, 1/100 Flag doesn't seem so bad. And most of these wonderful kits are coming out in May... I'm gonna have an awesome birthday.

You mean that their bending is comprimised (If you try and pose it, it flops back down yeah?), right? Take that joint apart, get a small ball of blu-tack, squash it between fingers until its quite flat, and place it over the "female" slots, both of them (Don't push it in, let the male slot piece do it). Then put back the male slot piece back on and place together. Mind you, it holds for a limited time, less if you use the joint a lot or put heavy shit for it to support, so reapply constantly. Hope it helps, and I'll try and get some pix if you need.
