BlitzBlast posted:I was all ready to blow my latest paycheck on a MG Tallgeese II and some more 1/100 X kits when I stopped, looked at the Gundam X shrine in the corner of my room, and realized I have enough kits. You should instead buy 8 1/144 X's and the resin kits to convert them into GX-Bits.

Fauxtool posted:I also dont care for x gundam designs. I have never seen any of its media. X Maoh is cool, but only because it has a laser skull chest. That's crossbone maoh. You can tell because its backpack is two huge rear end bones.

Kibner posted:Yup. My favorites so far are Acguy, Juaggu, Hygogg, and Z'Gok. The Gogg, Zock, and Zogok are ok. Any other Zeon suits I left out of that list? The Capule! Which is the true best amphibious suit.

Warmachine posted:What are everyone's opinions of the RG Zeta? Is it well designed? Does the transformation gimmick work well? It's a god drat zeta kit and an RG. Guess.

Swagger Dagger posted:I think the white looks really cool when it's weathered. It's a transformable kit that I've never built so I don't know how paint on the frame will mess with that, but if it doesn't I think a cool dark gunmetal works well as a contrast to the white/red, with the thrusters a lighter silver. It's an old Zeta kit so as usual, do not transform it unless you want it to fall apart.

Kaiju Cage Match posted:I think I won't touch those series with a 10-foot pole now. But you watched 08th MS Team which also has really bad writing? 0083 at least has it being really good looking going for it. 08th MS Team has... the Gouf Custom I guess?

BlitzBlast posted:RG GM, RG Gouf, and RG Ground Gundam have been in planning hell for... four years now? Anyway it's not all that weird of a guess. I'm pretty sure the image you're referring to was just a silly promo thing. Since the only thing from it to ever materialize from it was the Z'Gok and it was Char's at that.

The sheet is blue so those are waterslide decals yes, also as with most volks/hasegawa kits you have to do those mandatorily bc they dont hold your hand like koto/bandai

Anonymous Robot posted:What's the deal with the MG Turn A arms? I've looked it over several times and I can't see how I've built them anything but correctly, but the elbow joint pops off at the slightest provocation, and doesn't ever slide fully into the slot it's meant for. Also, the bicep armor just kind of jiggles around on the bicep, it doesn't actually click on to anything. Push it in until it pops. thats literally all it is.

Char's Z'Gok by far. Followed by the MK II. The SEED ones are even more fragile than the RX-78-2 from what I've heard.

Cao Ni Ma posted:SD suits that were announced but not revealed some time ago are probably BFTs triplets suits. Except only one of them was an SD kit, the other was a parts set and the third one was a regular HGBF. It's the Gunpla Academy set obviously.

Hijo Del Helmsley posted:AGE's saving grace was both sides having great suit designs. I mean, the plot is incomprehensible, and a solid 30% of the action scenes are reused at some point, but the suits look cool, and they make great gunpla. Don't make me do this meng, Don't do it! I will about AGE if you don't stop.

The Dregs posted:I don't know anything about this hobby, but my son and I saw some models at the local hobby store and he really, really wants to get into it. He is 10. I looked around a bit on Amazon and found this: http://www.amazon.com/Gundam-MS-06F-2-Zaku-Zeon-Scale/dp/B0032ZD5P2/ref=pd_sim_t_46?ie=UTF8&refRID=1SQ5HVZP2CH2HGCSDDDP . H e likes the beefier looking ones like as opposed to the skinny ones with huge guns and fins errywhere. Can you perhaps point me towards some more affordable models in this vein that would be approriate for a 10 year old. But yeah like the post above me said, Gundam Build Fighters is the ticket.

dogsicle posted:How does the customs stuff work with HLJ in the US? I've got several kits and some supplies sitting there now and, being new to this, didn't expect any hassle beyond regular shipping. It's untaxed. Don't worry unless you're ordering a literal shipping container via freight.

I was about to place an order until I saw my shipping was going to be $40 which is only a $3 difference from amazon. That's hobbywave, completely different site. HobbySearch has never had affordable shipping. e: the op is wrong

Droyer posted:The Bandai 1/20th scale Scopedog is very good. There's also 1/35th models by Wave, but I don't have any experience with them. The Wave models are ok, but they're way too expensive and just barely above the level of detail of a high grade for 3-4x the price. Go with the Bandai ones.
