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.

It's like I'm learning!

But if you don't buy a new X kit how will you mount a Satellite Cannon on your Plan-B once you finish it?

If the show turned out to be super cool, we might have watched it.
I'm not going to try to force you to try it again or get mad at you for it, I'm just going to say the show is super cool but not if you start with a random scene more than halfway through the show without any context and which isn't representative of what the show is like. Picking a random episode of any show and judging the entire thing from the opening scene sounds utterly bizarre to me.

drat but the GN particle conducting cable things on the Exia are fiddly to put in on the RG (just started work on it today, RGs are so much fun). Anyone built this before know how you're supposed to get the cable on the shin to dent into the leg? The instructions seem to suggest it gets held bent by the armour plates but they don't do that at all and it just ends up sitting straight, proud of the plating (I can live with it if it's not possible but I would like to get it to go in properly if I can) wondering if I might have to pull it out and put a slight crease in it.

edit: Taking the cable out and giving it a not quite crease worked.

Holy poo poo I just worked out what's going on with this part at the top of the leg, you can fold away the pegs on the hips for the GN Blades if you don't have them mounted there, that's a wonderful detail when nobody would really complain at having a mounting peg sticking out.

I just spent 5 minutes crawling around on my hands and knees looking for a part of my RG Exia's chest that wasn't attached.

It was on the sprue and I hadn't attached it this morning when I thought I did.


edit: gently caress poo poo balls I snipped a piece off without looking close enough at the instructions and removed a peg for the shoulder cable ribbon thing to attach to the right arm, doesn't look repairable so I think I'm going to have to order a kit from gunpla.co.uk just so I can use their replacement part service. I was planning to get an RG Destiny sometime soon anyway so it's not a huge ballache, biggest problem is I can't do the right shoulder at all until I get the part.

So along with getting several kits I recently picked up a set of tamiya tools which I've been using to build my Hi-Mock. Holy poo poo I knew games workshop tools sucked but I didn't know they sucked that much (I had some from when I didn't know any better).

Also I'm pretty sure the entire toolset cost less than a single tool from GW would, even if I don't have much need for the screwdrivers the clippers, files, knife and tweezers are all great.

I wonder what we'll even get for the December MG, I'm having a tough time thinking of anything with wide-ish appeal they can do that would be impressive. They really covered a lot in the past few years. Maybe they'll do a remake of something with PG level engineering now that we're getting no grades with MG frames? Then again the last PG was just a blown up MG so god knows, I guess all the grades and scales are kind of mushing together at this point.

I really hope it's gonna be a G-Self or at least something new.

One day they'll do MG V2 Assault Buster.

So for people wondering if the LED set for PG Exia is worth it, this should help you decide

I've never built a PG and I've always thought I don't particularly want one, but now I need it desperately. Are LED sets limited in some way or will it still be relatively possible to get in the future?
