I am so happy today because I finally got my hands on a 1/60 God Gundam HGEX. I bought it second hand from someone whom I think had already given up the hobby. Anyway amongst the 1/60 HGEX that is not produced anymore, 1/60 God Gundam is the rarest of them all. I have searched high and low to get one. Glad I was the first one to contact the seller of the item.
I will overhaul this kit because there are a lot of loose connections and not neatly colored parts. Good thing it was not panel lined yet.
Here are some pictures of the second hand kit that I got.
box art (glad the previous owner saved the box, no manual though)
Nothing much about this post… I just want to this SD Unicorn Gundam added to my blog. Another kit made by my Gf, because most of the time we build kits together. Even though it happens that we are building 2 different kits at the same time, we still can’t seem to keep up with the backlog of Gundams that we have… blah blah blah… haha Sorry for the talk…
By the way, the gun is painted “gun metal” color though it is not that visible in the picture.
Here is a little straight build review of SD Destiny Gundam from the series Gundam Seed Destiny. Seems unfair because the name of the Gundam is found on the title of the series hehe ^^. This was built by my GF. Yeah, she is a Gunpla collector like me. And besides, any girl would like to build this PINK-ish kit. No panel lines or whatever… just plain ol’ snap-fitted kit.
This part contains the pictures of 1/60 Victory Two (V2) Gundam taken on my persona mini studio… You can check the individual parts on part 1 of this post here… Again this is a partially weathered build. Its practically a snap-fitted attempt but I kinda got the itch to dirty the kit a little which turned out really good. V2 gundam is an overall great kit. I am planning to put some wings on it if I have the time…
I just finished building 1/60 V2 Gundam a while ago (about 15mins). In this review, I will be showing a “slightly-weathered-snap-fit” build. V2 stands for Victory 2. I don’t know the story and I hope to read it someday. At first I thought that this will be a really small 1/60 version. But in the end, I was really happy about how it looks. It had a quite a complex mechanism involved because it can transform into an core fighter unit. Kind of reminds me of Macross…
The size comparisons will be at the end of the post…
Next month which is June, my PG Strike Freedom will arrive. The original plan was to buy it this coming September, but my source told me that the FREE LIGHTING BASE stock is almost out… Yeah, you got it right, I ordered it all because of the Lighting Base… So in a panic that I would not get the free base, I immediately asked my source to get it asap…
Here is a picture of the lighting base courtesy of Dalong…
You will find here a list of some of the most commonly used Gundam Markers. They are listed individually and as a set. I got this from “rangerboard.com” and I posted it here as a personal reference. You never know when will one of your bookmarked sites becomes invalid. So in short, keep a copy of such stuff…
Yours truly is currently on vacation. Andito ako ngayon sa BAGUIO! yahooo! haha I tried looking for a hobby shop here pero wala… Now I know bakit ang mga taga-Baguio eh naghahanap pa ng Gundam sa Manila. Hay naku, hanggang dito pa naman sa Baguio GUNDAM pa rin iniisip ko… ADIK!
Oh well, habang naglalakad ako, naisip ko… sana may Gundam din dito katulad sa Odaiba, Japan…
RX-78-2 sana andito ka rin! malamig din naman ang climate dito sa Baguio…
I went to Greenhills earlier to pickup an item. My latest loot… 1/60 Victory (V2) Gundam HGEx. Yeah, obviously I am a fan of big scale Gundam model kits. Also this V2 Gundam is one hard to find kit nowadays.
Glad that somehow I managed to get one. I do not know the series where the Gundam came, but I will definitely check it soon after I am done with the latest series that I bought.
Anyway here are the pictures. Thanks Regan and Coldfire.
As usual, my pet cat Bieber is excited to meet his new box. lols.
Because of the quantity of pictures, we have to create a 2nd part of the review just for the showcasing of the Striker Weapon System when attached to the 1/60 Strike (Big Scale). Again, this is a straight build. No details whatsoever. So you can see what it looks like if ever you want to buy one yourself.
This is a great buy! one Strike Gundam plus three weapons pack. Ain’t it cool?
Here are the pictures.
First is the Launcher Strike
includes Agni Impulse Gun, Anti-Vessel Multi-Barrel Gun, and Gun-Launcher Combo Unit
