MG Exia

What a big day it is,  the MG Exia was announced and on display at the 48th Shizuoka Hobby Show! 
MG Exia is definitely sexy ^^ on sale this July (*sniff* I won’t be able to buy this in HK, since I’m leaving halfway June)

The special ignition version will cost a bit more (5250yen), but you will get the cape, leds, and chrome swords. 
Gundam Base has a great coverage gunpla wise  but for an even more extensive photocoverage (of nearly everything)
check out the hobby show album  (modem-killer! lol, those were the days when you had to warn people..)

I’d love to attend a show someday: I’d totally be the guy (red arrow) who has the guts to setup a tripod/monopod in the middle of the crow hehe

 

For the time being, us guys living in the west can only dream…

Yamato 1/24 Patlabor – Ingram

Always loved Patlabor, but never got me one. But that will change soon :) there will be  a limited number of 1000 made in the first batch. This thing is huge, around 33cm high – the price is pretty steep too US$300/€225,-

Bazookah-Get!

Pre-ordered this back in January and it finally arrived today!

MG Sword Impulse-buy?

MG GP03 update 3

Nooo, it’s not Exia again haha, I just borrowed it’s head.
- currently 95% done I’d say, all is left is Stamen’s head, bazooka and minor parts.

I’ve never been fan of core fighters, gunpla wise.

This corefighter consists of 3 parts, the blue middlesection,
which can be removed, and the head and tail parts. I could never transform
it without scratching the paint.
One of the major headaches of building Macross Valkyries XD

Anyway, it took long enough to get this far, I started somewhere in January.
I’ll be getting ready to prime all parts this weekend. If all goes well I’ll start painting next week :)
