Not First kit talk: I started in middle School with the first Mg Mk2. It I got before the titans or G-defender kits were even released. Used nail clippers and an old box cutter that was dull from years of use without replacement of the blade. I remember seeing the yellow vents for the shoulders and not knowing where they went so I tossed them only to realize my mistake a week later, after the trash had been collected. It also took me like 7+ before I figured out master grade and high grade meant more than just kit size.

Someone with more knowledge should chime in here, but all I've heard is that IBO's ratings sucked rocks for both seasons, especially among the younger demographic which the powers-that-be are constantly chasing, and that the US airing bombed out even harder. But the kit line apparently sold pretty well, so what the hell, keep that poo poo rolling as long as possible:![]()

The Muffinlord posted:They should make the armor easily removable and sell booster packs for the backpacks so you can keep colors consistent. Ehh, the Assault Pack is the only one that only changes a bit of the armor color, and there's no way in hell they'll make a MG Assault Pack. The Tricky and Reflect Packs completely change the color all over the suit, so at that point there's no reason not to also throw in the internal skeleton so it's a functioning kit. The Perfect Pack and High Torque pack don't change the color of the armor at all, but I don't exactly have high hopes for either of those getting kits. I'd be happy with a regular release of the G-Self with Atmosphere Pack and a P-Bandai Space Pack release, I don't think anything more is very likely

True story, it happened to me once edit: except it was steel piano wire and not brass wire so it was even worse

Long ago I used Tamiya nippers to cut down the nickel-titanium wire on my braces because it was stabbing the gently caress out of the inside of my mouth. Barely nicked it, I bet 1mm brass won't do jack, immersion ruined.

New release news. Notably, confirmation and first look at the RG unicorn. And of course, right after I finally buy the aging kit, a new Casval's Gundam MG based on the 3.0. Ah, and a new HG Blue Destiny. parabolic fucked around with this message at 04:05 on May 11, 2017 |

someone took more details of the RG unicorn with and without armor and it looks not too bad? https://twitter.com/yoshi115t/status/862471052403720192

Mega Size Unicorn. P-Bandai MG XN Raiser. High Resolution WZC. And I guess MG ZZ but I'm waiting on FA info before getting excited.

And the Tristan a bit further down on those twitter photos still looks awful for a new release. The new Blur Destiny and the black Local Type with the shoulder cannon look great.

The way the RG Unicorn ver. Shrapnel Grenade handles the Psycho Frame is pretty elegant.Neddy Seagoon posted:Ahhhh gently caress.

Guy Goodbody posted:That doesn't mean more Sekai. Who built the Burning Gundam? Yes it does, because character marketing is a thing. Turning that out and having it not be Sekai's would just confuse the consumer base. Beside, if it was Sei's, it'd be built to resemble the Star Build Strike.

Someone posted an RE/100 Zock tease on FB that turned out not to be real, and I'm actually a little disappointed.

That MS is probably the precursor of the Build Burning. I'd have preferred a different Star build <Ms here> but it doesn't look terrible.

Rifle and shield doesn't look like Sekai's vibe. A red colour scheme and Plavsky Particle fuckery makes me think Reiji's going to be dropping by.

Scroll up and check the poster; Sekai's not coming anywhere near this OVA, thank gently caress. Looks like it's an interquel between the two series.

Finishing up lining and decaling and HG Atlas. The Thunderbolt/Origin kits are so nice compared to the IBO kits. It's also nice having an HG that doesnt have any poly caps

I'm pretty sure that's new. Unlike the sinanju they can reuse the frame so it makes sense that'd they make a new mold for it. the zaku looks good but that's a pretty noticeable seam line on the arm. Edit speaking of seam lines, by girlfriend was doing the pink zaku warrior hg and my god have hg's improved these past 13 years.

Monaghan posted:the zaku looks good but that's a pretty noticeable seam line on the arm. I wish more HG Zakus would use the F2's style of forearms, where the seam line blends into the split between the front and back plate rather than a side by side plate.

I kinda like that Build Burning as a "what if it was a regular Gundam instead of a martial arts one" thing and I do not like how thin that Gyanko is though so I guess I'll stick with the beargguy one! I'm trash!!
