I was trying to make a joke about playing with your ball in public. But.. something funnier came up. The hg ball comes in a twin set. You litterally build, and assemble a set of balls.

... I have my Ver.Ka in the garage, if it's that pretty, I might acutally move it up the list.

And now my child brain wants to pose them with a GM flying over the top of the pair as a very abstract dong joke.

Just out of curiosity, how is the full mechanics Aerial as a kit? I enjoyed building the Lfrith and Calibarn but never got a chance to grab a Aerial kit when they were available at my local shop. Should I pick a FM up or should I wait for an inevitable MG release?

You might be waiting quite a while for an MG. They're doing like 1-3 MGs per year now and 2024 already has two.

my understanding is that full mechanics is the mg line for non-UC robots but maybe I'm wrong

No, MG has plenty of non-UC suits. Full mechanics is a 1/100 line, but with less detail than MG

I've built two FM Aerials and will probably build a third in the future when I feel like it, it's a fantastic kit. Almost an MG level of detail and colour-separation and not that much harder than an HG. You'll be waiting an extremely long time for any WfM MGs unfortunately, we're more likely to get an FM Calibarn or something in the meantime.

The full mechanics line is close to mg detail but not quite as much quality on the inner frame side.

Given the lack of mgs the past few years and the overall quality of the full mechanic lines just go for the fm aerial.

Wasn't gonna get an RX til the new RG, but couldn't say no to a Yokohama Factory one. :shepspends:

Also got a System Base 001, gonna pose it on that like it's taking a step at the Factory.

It's a good kit. I picked it up a few years back when they did a special promo on P-Bandai. It's not as detailed as the Origin version, but it's still a fun build.

ok Strike Aile Gundam is good enough for matte. I've never seen Gundam Seed but I liked the color separation and relatively straight forward design

Not my best paintjob on some of the fine-detail attempts, but still proud of myself for the attempt. Didn't use a single sticker to do this one, even did a decent job freehanding the eyes with a gold marker and a black one for the eye border. You just can't see it well on this one because it's so drat recessed. :argh:

The official Gundam Channel on YouTube released the "Gundam Series 45th-Anniversary Special Stream" on April 7, with the section from 42:20 onward marking huge news for Mobile Fighter G Gundam fans. Seki, who voiced Domon Kasshu in G Gundam, announced a new project commemorating G Gundam's 30th anniversary. Seki revealed the new anniversary logo, before being asked by the host, "It seems we'll be getting a new story?" and replied, "I don't know anything, but based on what I've been told, there may be some developments."

I have just concluded my second attempt to get my HG+ VF-29 into Gerwalk mode. There will not be a third attempt. I am really disappointed. The YF-19 was well-engineered and part swapping to change modes was easy. The VF-29 is a grenade kit. Whatever, I prefer the VF-25 from that series anyway.

I will try and get it into fighter mode, but if that doesn't work it's going back into its box of shame.

They've already reprinted it once. I'd be surprised if it doesn't show again in the near-ish future.
