TaurusOxford posted:Can we organize a Goon meet to Bimmi and Fauxtool's house so we can get those loving kits built? Or at least get them drunk and then take the kits for ourselves while they are asleep? I call dibs on 1/60 Wing Zero, PG Skygrasper, 1/100 legend, and PG RX-78-2. I call dibs on any and all Star Wars kits. And I guess GP-02.

I like green psychoframe Unicorn more than the red frame, but Unicorn mode is a close second. Hell, if I get drunk and order a Master Grade Unicorn that'll be the mode it'll stay in since otherwise it'll fall apart at the drop of a hat.

Broken Loose posted:Have they ever released a MG SD kit before? Because I'd totally shell out for a MG Winning, doubly so if it transforms into a giant fist for the MG Build Burning. Nope, the closest they've gotten to that is the Musha which was originally an SD, then turned into regular proportions for Dynasty Warriors Gundam. Then that got a release. Winning getting the same treatment is exceedingly unlikely.

Ka0 posted:What Build Fighters kits should I avoid? As in, "not as good as"; I ordered Burning Gundam and Ral's R35 Gouf. Qubeley Papillion is pretty not good since it's based off the HGUC Qubeley, a 15 year old kit and it's also about 50% stickers. I haven't heard anything good about the HG Build Mk-II although the MG is pretty terrific.

High Grades have decent stability, but at the same time they aren't technically transformable kits, they're partsformers. Anyways, as for real transformable kits, the Wing is probably one of the best since there's not that much machinery behind the transformation, it's just shift the arms and legs a bit and stick its shield on its head. Not to say that it's perfect since it just has the worst time doing anything remotely dynamic with the buster rifle.

chumbler posted:Does anyone have that picture of the hi-nu where the guy kept adding funnels until they wrapped nearly the full way back around? I can't for the life of me find it again and I want to show it to a friend. You may be thinking of the regular Nu Gundam, since the Hi Nu has a different funnel mount that doesn't lend to mounting more funnels on.

Best of luck to you with that. I just found out my Unicorn is currently sitting in the back of a USPS truck driving away from my house, so I'm going to get that tomorrow, maybe work on it after Thanksgiving or finals, depending on how much energy I have after my family's over.

Also the main incentive for the Skygrasper was getting the other two Striker Packs. The only thing I can think of them including in a 0 Raiser separate pack is the GN Blade III. Oh god I just realized they're going to do a Seven Sword web shop exclusive.
