It certainly died like a grunt suit. Thing couldn't even handle the Alex's rotary cannon.

I am a little surprised that no manga or sidestory has ever had a Kampfer [Mass Production Type]

Like oh, so that's why they bothered to put Vulcan cannons in Gundam heads. Apparently lots of mobile suits are total rear end.

That's like part of the plot for thunderbolt right? they put gundam heads on normal mobile suits for morale purposes, and because they think they will find more newtypes

I still need to do some touching up (And I'm not sold on the shifter paint on the pauldron), but it's the deadline, so here's a Zaku custom.

Snail Information posted:That's like part of the plot for thunderbolt right? they put gundam heads on normal mobile suits for morale purposes, and because they think they will find more newtypes Yeah there's a line of GMs called Gundam Heads that developed into the Ground Gundam Spartan Type. Theyre just up armored GMs with scary heads to psyche out Zeon troopers. No relation to the Ground Gundam 79G variants from 08th ms team.

Do we want someone to collect all the group build grunts and dump them in a gallery post or something? Would be fun to see all of the contributions and hard work side by side

Found a really good local hobby store and got myself an airbrush, some paints, and an hg gogg and byarlant custom. I think I need some more stuff that they’ll have in stock in a week like properly sharp nippers, sanding sticks, and topcoat but it feels good to be moving beyond just oob builds.

Also needs some touch up, but I have no idea when I'll get back to it.

The arm gatlings are bigger then the head vulcans. The vulcans are 60mm, the gatlings are 90mm. For comparison: the machine gun that the ground gundams use is 100mm.

For real world comparison, the bigass machine gun on the A-10 is "only" 30mm and something like an F-15 is chambered in 20mm.

Grunt contest entries. When things weren't specified, I just copied the posts of anything with a grunt suit in it. I think that's everybody. If you think your robot should be on or off this list, let me know. Happy New Year, and don't fuckin' go out and get the virus. grassy gnoll fucked around with this message at 01:27 on Jan 2, 2021 |

Also, the same size as the machine guns used by the GMs in War in the Pocket. On top of that, of course, the Kampfer is built to survive on speed, not durability. The design goal was to make a high speed Mobile Suit that could get in, tag the targets, and get out. Extended firefights without an ambush weren't in the plans.

The last time I bought from Amazon I bought from USA Amazon and actually managed to save about ten bucks. I should really use HLJ whenever I'm not buying local.
