One of our member in the Gundam Philippines Facebook Group namely Alex Gervacio created this customized RX-78 GP03s Gundam. He dubbed it “GPH Custom”dedicated to the Facebook group we love so much. I really like how the colors turned out. The mix of orange, silver, black and white all turned out very nicely. Mind you that Alex is just new to the hobby but his works are already one of my favorites. To Alex, thanks for dedicating this kit to the group. Keep on sharing the gunpla love bro! ^__^

It is the 6th day that we have no DSL connection… *Sigh* We are using Globe Broadband’s service and for some reason, they cannot solve the problem on the cabinet level… Today they are supposed to visit our house. I just hope that they do arrive… I have the whole day to wait for them. I am connected now using the 3G on my phone. Thank God that somehow, I can use the 3G even though it is very very very slow…. It happened a few days after we upgraded to their 2mbps service… Sometimes I wonder if that is the cause…
Gundam AGE 4 FX Episode 48 “Flash of Despair” is now available! Zeheart fires the Digma-xenon Cannon once again, to bring about Ezelcant’s great project Eden even at the cost of his comrade’s lives. However, Flit and the Federation are expecting this, and manage to evacuate the Diva and Gundams in time. This failure turns the tide against Zeheart. And then Asemu…
We have here something that is very old and something that I bought for only 150 pesos hahaha! This is an unboxing review of our High Complete Model (HCM) Johnny Ridden’s Zaku-II (MS-06R-2). This is a 1/144 Gundam figure that was made in the year 1984. It may not look complex or articulated like the Gundam kits we have today, but I am pretty sure that it was the best that they had back in 1984. As the term itself implies, it was supposed to be a high quality figure. In fact, it is as heavy as some 1/100 kits though it is only 1/144. It seems to have some metal parts inside which I cannot easily see. Well, I can’t really complain much since I bought it for a cheap price. hahaha! moving on with the review ^___^
There is a joke in the Gunpla community… Once you get hooked into Gunpla, there is no stopping it… You may do a hiatus for a while but eventually you will come back. The Gunpla love bite stays forever in your blood stream! hahaha. The meme below happens in the first few months LOL when you simply can’t resist the urge to buy a new kit.. Haha, Bandai sure made a nice drug for us hobbyists…
Finally cleared up some space to do a review of this HUGE guy! Today we are going to review a Gundam Fix Figuration Metal Composite Figure namely the #1003 (MRX-010) Psycho Gundam Mk-II. This is the first GFF Metal Composite figure we have reviewed and I must say that we were really impressed at the detail, quality, weight and size of this mobile suit. It is so cool that you will be sad to keep it inside the box, it must be displayed! I give it a rating of 10/10. Bang for buck wise, you won’t regret it, worth every peso… Its already out of production (afaik) and I really do not know any other figure of the Psycho Gundam Mk-II. So if you get to see one on your local shops, give it a thought and try to check the item yourself. ^__^

Haha, I was watching Gundam AGE Episode 47 and can’t help but notice this scene… It reminds me of Domon Kasshu doing the erupting burning finger move hahaha! Well, I did not say it is a rip-off, but you know Bandai/Sunrise, they love to reference a lot of stuff from old Gundam series. And it seems that this one is a tribute as well to God Gundam as done by the Gundam AGE-FX (or Domon to Kio). Share the photo if you like haha!
Gundam AGE 4 FX Episode 47 “Blue Planet, Lives Ending” is now available! As the battle continues around the Space Fotress La Glamis, Kio meets Deen, a Vagan who he once knew well. As Kio continues to try to fight without killing, Deen and his X-rounder powers are his biggest threat yet. And as the battle gets fiercer, Natora is forced to make a decision when Seric is in grave danger.
