[Completed][1/100] Gundam Gusion & Gundam Gusion Rebake - [Updated 28th February 2016]

Long time no build Gundam, and I should start building something haha... I watched the Iron-Blooded Orphans anime and the kits were rather nice, even if it's just a 1/100 grade.. So I bought myself this kit =D

Initially I didn't know it included the Gusion Rebake parts, cos when I pre-ordered it it was just the Gusion. So it's kinda like a surprise to me when Bandai started to release the box art. So basically this kit only comes with one Mobile Frame and two parts, Gusion and Gusion Rebake parts of your choice to build.

I'm so going to buy the previous 3 1/100 kits of this series haha...

[Completed][PG] RX-0[N] Unicorn Gundam Banshee Norn Full Psycho-Frame Prototype Mobile Suit (With LED Unit) - [Updated 9th January 2016]

The next Perfect Grade kit after Unicorn comes the Banshee Norn! Featuring it's Grenade Launcher that attached to the Beam Magnum, Armed Armor XC and Armed Armor DE, this is the next massive PG kit I had. The box itself is slightly thicker than the PG Unicorn kit due to the additional parts, and yes, I managed to get another LED set from HLJ =D

Armed Armor VN and Armed Armor BS currently selling as Premium Bandai, which I will get it and then put all the Armed Armor parts onto the Banshee lol..

[HG] Super Fumina Minato Sakai's Mobile Suit - [Updated 3rd January 2016]

First Gundam kit to start off 2016! Well, actually I had this kit like a month ago back as backlog lol.. So here's Super Fumina, which is quite a good kit, also came as a surprise to majority of the Gunpla community folks which they didn't know that Bandai could make such a kit. It may not be as good as what the Gundam Build Fighters anime shown, but this is quite satisfying enough lol..

Did some minor panel lining, and not using the decals for Fumina's eye lashes. So I attempted to use the marker to draw her eye lashes out.. Forgive me if it's ugly, I'm not a makeup artist lol..

Note: This kit does not cast-off parts =P

[Completed][MG] PF-78-3A Gundam Amazing Red Warrior Meijin Kawaguchi's MS - [Updated 17th October 2015]

Next kit for Gundam Build Fighters Try series, the Amazing Red Warrior which is built and piloted by Meijin Kawaguchi. I'm still waiting for the day that Bandai decides to make the Build Burning Gundam lol... But before that, I generally like the kits that were featured in GBF Try series, just that I preferred to collect MG kits more lol...

[Completed][MG] XXXG-01Wfr Gundam Fenice Rinascita Ricardo Fellini Custom MS - [Updated 17th July 2015]

This was recently released a few weeks back, another kit from the Gundam Build Fighters anime series. I like the way the show redesigned the Wing Gundam. In fact, most of the main characters' kits I like their design alot lol... Having build the RG Wing Gundam Zero, I'm quite relieved that I'm back to building MG kits again lol...

This kit comes with a brand new action base stand which people could do custom painting on it to their preference. I'm keeping it plain for now as I don't really know what to do about it other than straight building it...

[Completed][HG] Petitgguy Burning Red, Lightning Blue, Winning Yellow & Future Pink - [Updated 1st June 2015]

These cute little bears are so cute that I had to get them as a set. They are sold separately however but it's only fitting to get them as a set lol... Also each of them have a small puzzle piece stand and stickers for their eyes and nose. Bandai gave like three pairs of eyes and 4 noses in each of them, probably is to let you have more spare stickers of those lol...

These Petitgguys can be seen during the ending credits of Gundam Build Fighters Try Season 2 (second half onwards of the episodes I think). Their names are 'Burning Red', 'Lightning Blue', ' Winning Yellow' and 'Future Pink'. They are fast to build, so I probably do one per day lol... Overall, they are so cute...!!!

[Completed][RE] MSN-04II Nightingale Neo Zeon Char Aznable's Use MS - [Updated 15th December 2014]

Finally gotten this kit that I always wanted, the gorgeous Nightingale =D

And also the first ReBorn 100 kit I have, and most likely the second biggest kit next to Neo Zeong. Bandai can't make this into an actual MG of it so that's why they came up with this new line whereby there's no inner frame but still able to present more details and also better articulation in it.

Like the Neo Zeong, I'll be working on this kit over the Saturdays at my workplace and I'll post all the pics when I've done assembling and before top coating.

I'm placing this on my work table for sure lol...

[Completed][HG] Beargguy F (Family) Mirai Kamiki's Mobile Suit - [Updated 12th December 2014]

This Beargguy kit never fails to impress me, and now it comes with a smaller bear. Such cuteness there awwww...!!!!

This was part of the Gundam Build Fighter Try series, new season lol... I'm still hoping Bandai would make a MG size of these, or the original Beargguy III lol...

[Completed][SD] BB RX-0 Unicorn Gundam 03 Phenex - [Updated 22 October 2014]

A SD kit bought from HLJ, another Unicorn variation lol... To be honest, I'm not really impressed with this original "Gold" that the plastic has given.. So, seeing that I have plenty of Tamiya TS-21 Gold spray paint, why not give it a better gold color?

Latest Haul for September!

I haven't quite posting my latest haul in here lol... My last haul was the Neo Zeong which had sucked me dry.. I'm still in the midst of saving my money back again, so this haul is not much but mostly the leftover outstanding items that has yet to ship out.

Firstly, from HLJ, my regular hang out XD I'm very well-aware that the SD Unicorn Phenex is not chrome-plated gold unlike the MG Phenex due to high cost. Totally understandable for this, so I would be doing something about it ;)

Secondly, I bought this exclusive AGP MS Girl Unicorn Banshee from GKGundamKits website. This was my first visit to this website, and they deal with exclusive kits like the Premium-Bandai kits. Note that I had censored some of my personal details from there.

Lastly, I went to buy some spray paints and happen to pass by HAG. So I drop by take a quick look, and found what I want XD

Yup.. the SD Command Gundam what I was waiting for in HLJ (but was backordered lol)

That's about it for my haul this month =)

A Free Bag From HLJ! XD

Syd from HLJ had sent me this bag in as a giveaway prize for showing the completed Neo Zeong. It was a late submission actually and I wasn't expecting to win anything but I did anyway lol... So it was kind of a pleasant surprise for me when Syd messaged me on Facebook all of a sudden =D

Curious to know what pic had I posted on their Facebook page? =P

Here it is! LOL!!! XD

[Completed][SD] BB Legend Full Armor Knight Gundam

Another SD that I wanted, it was featured in Gundam Build Fighters last episode and it's an improved version of Knight Gundam. Although it doesn't shines like the Knight Gundam that I had previously (chromed plated silver), It still looks great nonetheless lol...

[Completed][MG] RX78-2 Gundam E.F.S.F. Prototype Close-Combat MS Ver 3.0 - [Updated 25 July 2014]

I temporary put my Holy Emperor kit aside for now, and do a straight normal build of this first. I needed some references as this kit has too many parts, plus I'm dealing with a MG Version 3.0 on top of it lol... I will get another of this kit soon once I have more of less confirm the final color assignment for my Holy Emperor.
