Great job on the OP :golfclap:

I'm waiting to get my paints before I build MG Heavy Arms. It looks like such an awesome kit I'd feel bad if I didn't take the proper time to make it look really great.

Now if only I had some space to display the drat thing...

Playing SD Gundam online and watching Zeta/ZZ recently has opened my eyes to a lot of suits I would love to build, but then I look and they're out of stock everywhere and made like 20 years ago or they've just never been made into a model.
Anyone know how to go about making custom parts? :smith:

I'm telling ya, SD Gundam Online is a big gunpla selling scam! :tinfoil:

Are you playing the english version? IGN Dre2Dee2 if you looking for a bud

So this is something i've been working on for a couple days now. It's still got a shitload of touching up to do even after I get it fully assembled (be gentle on me pro airbrushers), but so far i'm pleased with how the "Heaven Gundam" is turning out so far. I'll post pictures later of what I had to do to get Wing Zero's shoulders to go on God Gundam's arms.

Holy jesus. The best... just got BESTER :stare:

This is getting stupid. I know getting RG Zeta was a stretch, but Christ Bandai, stop milking SEED kits.

Seed is the most popular gundam in Japan for some god forsaken reason, they will never stop milking the poo poo out of it. Why you think it got a PSP Vita exclusive game just recently? :eng99:

EDIT: Has anyone tried using painters tape with gundam markers? I only ask because I'm working on SD King J-Der, and there are some red details I want to paint and I have a gundam marker that's the perfect color. I tested it on some spare sprue, and it's very watery and runny compared to some other markers I've used. I figure I can use painters tape, but I'm worried it might leak underneath. Any ideas?

Hrm... if you can make a second version, make you can rip some holes into it, drag it into some dirt, get some dust, give it some wear. Would look awesome.

Speaking of customs, this dude made his own Virgo from Gundam Wing. It looks pretty great all things considered :stare:

Apparently the article mentions a LED. I guess we're getting a light up head.

Also, don't knock that Gundam Breaker game. I saw RX-78-2 with Deathscythe's Beam scythe and 00 Gundam with Wing Zero's wings, which makes me happy for the potential to make crazy rear end mobile suits. :)

Hrm... maybe. With previous MGs the lights were always mailaway Japan exclusives :(

Yeah, I'm loving the SRC line. I got MagiKing, Dekaranger Robo, Big Volfogg, GaoGaiGar, and now Daizyujin.

Honestly I was a little wary of this line when it was first announced, but the characters they are putting out and the quality are loving awesome. :)

MGs are the new PGs. RGs are the new MGs. Bandai is downsizing their huge epic toys (SoC and PGs) for new, smaller, leaner product (SRC and RGs)

So yeah, we'll get one but it'll take a while

I think it just means they want to have a representative suit from everything Gundam thing ever, heh.


Also, I accidentally ordered the same kit twice. I now have two SD ChoRyuJins coming in the mail. :cripes:

Would anyone be interested in buying it, or maybe trading an unfinished kit for it?
