This is one of the wildest series of posts I’ve seen in a long time. And I don’t mean that in a bad way.

Pierson posted:It's got the Emotion Manipulator hands which narrows it down to like a half-dozen suits. The shield is white so it isn't the Sazabi or the Sinanju. Probably the Unicorn, Nu or Hi-Nu. Funny this came up; I was working on my MG Jesta last night and got to the hands. Just an awful overengineered pain to work with. I finally just glued the problem digits into place since the pinky and index finger kept falling off when I was trying to have it hold its gun. It's somewhat soured me on an otherwise amazing kit.

I like the emotion hands for cool poses but I do think they should include static ones too.

Machinedramon is an extremely good kit holy poo poo. Sturdy as hell, joints that click into place, and really stable despite how top heavy it looks. Also I finally got around to getting myself a dedicated display shelf for my kits.

Friend got into Gunpla really heavily in the last few months, not gonna lie I find their way of doing things strange because the thought of sorting through this gives me anxiety but they're having fun so who am I to judge.

I've done that myself a few times, but only on simpler kits or something I've built before like GM variants. I'd never do it on something with more parts than a HG. Worked out to be a little faster due to not having to grab different runners all the time and unlike Lego, parts aren't really that similar looking as to get lost in the pile.

Same, if it's something I've built a variant of a few times, it's a lot of fun to nip and clean every part first and then just snap it together in one sitting. Pierson posted:On that topic I've actually come to dislike the EMs quite a bit. They are super-fiddley to clean-up after cutting them out and if you gently caress up even a little and pop them out they lose grip instantly. I think I prefer the ones where they come as a trigger thumb, trigger finger and then set of three molded together. The emotion manipulators are a good idea ...and that's the only good thing I can think to say. I really hate them too

My local hobby store got in a stock of the HG Gespenst kit, so I immediately bought it. Anything I should know before I build it?

All the SRW kits are great, consider them if you like the Gespent.

What should a *reasonably* priced Master Grade be in the ballpark of Canadian Funbux? There's a newer hobby shop up the street from me that apparently has gunpla but I'm still feeling I overpaid for the Victory 2 Ver. Ka I bought a few years back.

Going by Japanese prices, they vary from cheaper than some high grades to nearing a Perfect Grade. The V2 at retail was 4500 yen, so somewhere in the neighborhood of 50 bucks would be normal accounting for shipping.

I have no idea how either the US or Canadian gunpla market is doing lately though.

Arc Hammer posted:So $125 for thr MG Full Armour from Thunderbolt *at a discount* is kind of outrageous? A good price, before discount, in CAD for MG full armour should be about $110. A fair, average price should be $125. Unless "at a discount" is like 5%, that place is overpriced.

Picked up an Entry Grade Nu Gundam, and a HG God Gundam, to go with my HG Deathscythe. Got a couple weeks off in July that I'm going to try and build all three. If I like those, I already have my eyes on The RX-78-2, and a Wing Gundam Zero. Rose Gundam looks really good too. I really only know the original series (and Chars Counterattack), along with G and Wing Gundam.

Which of the RX-78 and Wing Zero are you considering? There are several of each and the quality varies wildly.
