>>22950331>Do you know what youre talking about? Their latest financial report shows that they only made 100 billion yen net profit, which is fucking peanuts.Net profit is the profit after you chop off every expenses, retard. Bandai doesn't "make" 100 billion, that's what's left after calculating every business expenses and will go into their savings. If you tell me this multi billion dollar corpo is operating on a loss, i will say you are mentally challenged and needs help.
>>22950473Are you retarded or something? Maybe read back on the posts that you're replying to before saying something so retarded holy shit, lay off on the lacquer fumes.
>>22950482I swear to christ people aren't even reading what they are replying to. Their operating profit in EU has them on a loss, no one is saying they are operating on loss ENTIRELY.
>was promised a Getter nightmare build>no GetterAnon...
>>22950501>Their operating profit in EU has them on a loss, no one is saying they are operating on loss ENTIRELY.Metaverse project is a loss. That does not mean you have to show sympathy to this company just to justify their price increase. Bandai is too big to fail at this point.
think i'll get the bolinoak on releaseno strong build plan for him yet but i like how he looks which is more than i can say for most upcoming stuffand shit's only gonna get pricier
bootleg aaah lookin boxart lmaoo
I'm building the perfect grade Unicorn and the shoulder joints use a very hard type of polycap and I'm literally too weak to fit them in, wtf do I do? It's the POM polycaps if anyone's built it
>>22950601amphetamines
>>22950601Just wiggle them in. Unless you're actually trying to force together the wrong parts
>>22950608Already on them lmao
>>22950611Nah I already triple checked and all the pieces are correct. I gotta fit in two different parts into two different polycaps at the same time, my fingers hurt like hell from all the pushing. Might have to hit the gym for this one bros
>>22950613then it's over for youwhenever i take my adderall i screw on paint jar lids so tight they're a struggle to get off sober, among other things
>>22950473>>22950262He's a bandai employee attempting to gas light. We know how much record breaking profit bandai keeps making every single year. But this guy is literally in here telling us >abloo bloo bloo small famiry company they don't actually make money on toys!
>>22950619To be fair it's not exactly an amphetamine as it is not a releaser, but a reuptake inhibitor. In any case taking a pill won't give me the superhuman strength required to build this thing
>>22950597>SDlmao
>>22950593Same. I'm collecting Titans kits and the Bolinoak has a really unique silhouette imo. might even give one of its extra beam sabers or tomahawks to my new Hizack custom when it gets here
>>22950601sand it
>>22950643Might, but it's a last tesort. I'll try to get stronger first
Reading dalong's reviews on old kits and seeing how they evolved is fun. Anyone got a video or tuber to recommand about the history of gunpla kits? Like someone that details old gimmicks that got dropped, evolutions in engineering, very specific kits that marked a breakpoint (like the introduction or grades), etc. I need myself a good listen to power through a lot of really boring menial work tomorrow.
>>22950657Hobby Clubhouse is a treasure trove of that kind of info, plus genuinely high quality videos
>>22950657Mgk. You can watch him throw kits against the wall
I voted for trump because I thought he would be good for the economy. But now people are saying there will be tariffs on gunpla and economic downstream effects that will make gunpla prices higher? Explain to me.
>>22950657Seconding Hobby Clubhouse
time for the threadly american panic about paying 500 yen more for a kit
>>22950672international goods are getting tariffs, aka taxed higherso now something that costs $20 will be $24(ish)think of how much foreign goods this hobby is wrapped up in
Which one of you bastards decided not to enter your groupbuild entry and posted it on reddit instead?
>>22950684i'm not aware of any icelandic anons
>>22950679So wait why did people want this? This seems so unnecessary. Like there’s no reason why we need things to be more expensive except someone decided it. Also I can’t imagine a lot of this other stuff like laying off most of the federal workforce and deporting millions of low wage workers will be good for the economy. I feel like all this stuff will lower consumer spending and be bad for the small businesses in the hobby.
>>22950688How peculiar of you to immediately recognize the language anon. Do you have anything you want to come clean about?
>>22950690>why did people want thisBecause china bad and US production good, except US manufacturing isn't set up to take the weight of the world that is about to be passed onLike many things with Trump, he said a lot of things to get people excited but who knows what he'll actually be able to get implemented and to what extent
>>22950684man, why didn't they seamweld those legs at the very least?
>>22950684fucker stole my idea and didn't even seamweld!that was the kind of texture I was going for but I never used miliput before and didn't have the best tools...
>>22950694Because it’s reddit
>>22950692yeah, I'm gay.
>>22950702Why is this general so gay
>>22950705Because it's 4chan.
>>22950693Oh shit lol didn’t they say the china tariffs would be 60%? RIP third party and bootleg kits
>>22950709I thought 4chan is full of coomers and poltards who hate fags
bootleg sdcs nightingale
>>22950710I thought I saw 100% china, 20% everywhere else, but again, we're MONTHS away from anything remotely concrete
>>22950692it's a distinctive language. unless you're counting old norse and old english the only other language that looks similar is faroese and considering their population is much lower icelandic was a safer guess
>>22950692It’s a general for robot toys on a site for sexless anime fans and polcels. Don’t be surprised when the users have some form of autism that can manifest itself in other ways
>>22950711Have you ever paid attention to the news? The more anti-gay you are, the deeper into the closet you are. Every retard who screams about how much they hate gays inevitably comes out as having male strippers in their office 24/7 and able to suck a golfball through a garden hose.
>>22950734I was told that china would pay the tariffs
>>22950672>>22950690I can't believe retards like you are allowed to vote
>>22950740did you not learn when he said mexico would pay for the wall and the american taxpayer ended up paying for it?
5%? really hljcouldn't even chuck us a 10%
>>22950740>a country>EVER paying tariffsYou had a fucking history class in school. The US started BECAUSE no one wanted to pay retarded tariff's. Why did you think voting for the moron who wanted to throw tariff's on everything would make things cheaper?You don't have to answer though, because we know the answer: You're fucking retarded. You are the sort of person we would have sterilized if the US had decided to do that to low IQ American's during the 60's and 70's like they were discussing to do. And you know what, we should have. You retards ruin everything.
Gunpla?
>>22950760AND plamo
Any advice on how to prevent bubbles in sprue goo?
>>22950762you can't really, that solvent has to evaporate to somewheresuper glue and accelerant or a 2 part epoxy putty are better tools for larger filling jobs
FINALLY I was able to place an order on 30mm Steel Haze, hope he arrives soon. Anyone here actually got the kit and can give me feedback on it? Also what is the best way to paint the eyes
>americans are acting like this is the end of the world when europe did the exact same shit only a few years ago and literally nothing happened besides importing gunpla became 25% more expensive
>>22950771>nothing happened>besides importing gunpla became 25% more expensivelol. At least we Americans have more disposable income, but europoors can’t even afford that severe of a price hike
>>22950771I would rather that trump get grassy knolled than be inconvenienced by even a 0.1% price increase in my gunpla, it's what America is founded on.
>>22950762Depending on your setup, you could apply some mild heat underneath, helps reduce viscosity and encourage air bubbles to rise upward. Assuming you have either, a pressure pot or vacuum chamber could also work.
>>22950784inb4 he melts his kit blasting it with a heat gun
>>22950755>no one wanted to pay retarded tariffsThe Boston Tea party started because the king not only raised taxes/prices of his tea but also banned consumption of any other teas. Also the colonists were paying taxes while not having any representation in England, hence the NO TAXATION WITHOUT REPRESENTATION stuff. In addition there was eventually a "massacre" of colonists + an attempt to confiscate guns.Any way that's enough off topic history for /gpg/ but I don't appreciate people gaslighting.
>>22950795>>22950755Nah the us started as a revolution of the bourgeoisie. They didn’t want anything fundamentally different than what England had, they just wanted the colonial elites to be in power rather than England’s. That’s why originally only white property owning males could vote and anti democratic measures were put in place like the electoral college and senate.But enough of the history lesson. Gunpla.
Where other gunpla sales? So far only newtype has one
Gimme some suggestions before I start this project, chat.It would be really easy to just paint these in standard colors, and I could do them in tandem rather than one after another, which would streamline the process. However, apparently there was a PS2 game where two of them had custom colors (purple and pink), if I do it like that it would add a bit of identity and make them look less samey. Thing is, I never played the PS2 game (or owned a PS2) and I don't like doing paint jobs or buying merchandise for media that I haven't personally experienced (plus even if it's a licensed Bandai product it's also basically fanwank as far as I'm concerned). There's also the problem that a bunch of the joint pieces are red, so having to paint those risks the paint scratching during the posing process.Should I paint these in custom colors, or is there a more subtle way to make them more distinct beyond the numbering stickers?
>>22950837I suggest you trash that seedslop and pick up some uc kits like a grown up
>>22950837Do one up in Jean Carrey's colors. Maybe paint another like an M1A.
It’s gonna suck when prices go up because my hobby is just buying shit and not building it. Maybe I’ll actually have to work through my backlog.
How big are your tables /gpg/? Im planning to expand my workstation into a bench and want some ideas.
should I buy all the GM's I need now for $25 each before the price hike or is it likely that they'll go on sale before then?
>>22950877I have three workstations:1. Standard desk where I put all my tools on top and do my regular assemblage, tool work and planning.2. Spray booth stand that's just the spray booth and a place to put the airbrush and compressor, separated from the desk and placed next to the window where the hose can reach it3. Small workstation in a separate part of my house that's more convenient to reach since it's closer to a water source and my computer, where I mostly just do cutting and sanding.
>>22950898There will be big Black Friday sales in a couple days. Might even be some on newtype right now. Yes get them all during the Black Friday sales before the price hikes. You will pay more if you wait.
>>22950672>10 threads later anons keep falling for the exact same tariff baitgod bless you anon
>>22950710don't worry, chinkgod bootleg stores will just lie to US customs about the price so you get less tax.only japcels will pay the tax.
>>22950837ps2 is emulatable nowadays. you must get the true ending before beginning to snap.
>>22950834It's not Black Friday or Cyber Monday yet, anon. Newtype jumped the gun to get more sales obviously. And since most places don't do above like, 15% site wide, going 10% site wide is enough to hook most people, especially since they tend to have the biggest stocks of things while other shops seem to run out fast.
>>22950931If I want to buy stuff on sale should I just go ahead and buy from newtype or do you think I should hold out and wait to see if there’s something better later on another site?
>>22950597It's perfect
>>22950947some burger stores are starting their black friday sales a fucking week early for ??? reasons but the actual black friday isn't until this upcoming friday in 5 days. wait til then AT LEAST, and probably until Monday dec 2nd to see all sales and shit
>>22950947If what you're looking for isn't something liable to sell out (ie: older, not so in demand kits), yeah, might as well wait a few days. If it's something new you know people want, or a just reprinted kit that you also know is in high demand, get it while you can.
>>22950981Because stores know people bite at deals as most places aren't offering huge sales like they used to. You don't see crazy ass BF deals anymore. Most model kit places offer like, 10-20% tops on stuff they know is going to sell. Only stuff cluttering their shelves is going to go any deeper.
>>22950981Black friday commemorates the beginning of the holiday season, so stores that do it early are trying to relieve pressure from everyone going nuts that friday.
>>22950981Because "sales" aren't good for consumers anymore and real discounts are minimal, everyone knows it so might as well start them early.

>>22951036I knew the guy who said they're done making WFM HGs is retarded
>>22951036this one is really coolbest suit from that company or w/e, even better than the gundam with the sword
Like 45 HGs announced but jus like 1 MG. Fuck bandai lazy cunts
>>22951036>https://figsoku.net/blog-entry-437808.htmlThat's pretty good.
>>22951043Nobody actually buys MGs. Sorry fat white guys don't count
>>22951036I NEVER STOPPED BELIEVING
>>22951036This thing has a weird effect on people. Even Gyobu's biggest hater agree it is a good looking mech.
>>22950983I want mg age 1 normie, mg cow, stock up on a few paints and maybe some 30ms stuff. Not much. There is a 30ms optional body part thing that says it’s November release but idk if it will be out while the sales are still ongoinghttps://www.gundamplanet.com/30ms-option-body-parts-type-sigma-sisters-paradox-1-color-a.html
>>22951040That guy is kinda half right. There is no retail HG for Turd from Mercury anymore. Obviously we had that manga exclusive Beguir Beu as the latest P-Bandai release.
>>22951036never seen that nigga befo but damn he cool>pbandaiof course
>>22951054No, I'm indifferent to it.
>>22951062oh wait isn't it olcott's ride?
>>22951060Nah I'm referring to the guy a few threads ago who said they're literally never making anymore WFM kits because it performed poorly or some other dimwit conjecture
>>22950837this is just autistic. Canonfags are the worst part of any fanbase.
>>22951036man, this is gonna cost me like 80 bucks
>>22951036Nice. This is the one I always held out hope for. Now we just need HG Prodoros.
>>22951071yeah after doing the math and having a flash of my scalper's puffy face, fuck that
>>22951054It's a tacticool dilanza, what's not to love.
My bet, Bandai is gonna restock Dilanza Sol along with this. For lore reasons.
>>22951080the price
Delpi or EVO/SIMP waterslides?
>>22951068>he doesn't realize where he is
>>22951071>>22951083Its only ¥2860 how the hell can't you get it for cheap?
>>22951036What annoys me is how short the bazooka is.
>>22951094i think its fineits like an expandable one that you shoot once and throw away
>>22951036Nice. Soon.
>>22951036What's even the point of doing retail releases at this stage.
>>22951082That would make too much sense so not happening.
>>22951097based
>>22951096I honestly hate AT4's designs and the scifi designs inspired by it.
Delpi decal or EVO/SIMP for waterslides?
>>22951085Both are good and pretty similar levels of quality. I prefer simp for most decals though because I find a lot of Delpi’s reds look pretty washed and inaccurate. But I use delpi for decals that don’t have red.
>>22951091shipping + customs rape tax
>>22951091uuuuh guess i'm a retard
>>22951111Quads confirm. You my friend are a retard
>>22951097Hopefully some time next year
>>22951036>>22951054That's because it looks like a hexa gear govenor
>>22951102Except it is happening.
thoughts on the RG RX-178-2? I heard taht early RG kits had some issues but I love the titans color scheme
>>22951132It's fine. The pre-build MS frame on the early RGs are prone to weakening over time but if you build it and leave it in one pose, it'll be fine. It's not that much more than the HG and it looks much better.
>>22951132RG kits in general are pain in the ass.
>>22951140whyi generally really enjoyed building my MG Tallgeese 2 but the prioce point of RGs seems really appealing
>>22951144They aren't. Some of the early RGs can be a hassle and one or two of them, like the Sinanju, aren't worth bothing with at all due to the huge design flaws. Generally speaking since 2017 with the release of the RG Unicorn (RG 25), RGs have been amazing.
>>22951132The rg mk ii is generally considered an exception in the early rgs. It’s pretty solid. But yeah in general early rgs are trash up to the rg unicorn
>>22951144MG kits are actually good. RG is meh, most of them are floppy and difficult to pose.
I dont paint these shits I just fuckin snap em together I dont file anything I dont even use clippers I just snap these little shits and smack em together. I don't even watch the show I just think these little niggers are cool lookin'
>>22951153>most of them are floppyNo>difficult to poseIf you're a fat retard maybe
>>22951147RG God Gundam is meh in spite of it being one of the later release.
>>22951161Well pardon me for being careful with my kits because RG always seem to be begging to be broken.
>>22951166>RG always seem to be begging to be brokenIf you're a fat retard maybe.
>>22951156Based
>>22951156The shows are mostly shit, you're not missing out on anything. Looking up the units and buying kits based purely on aesthetics is the best way to interact with gundam.
>>22951178Yeah honestly, sometimes i wish there is some sort of catastrophe that wipes entire Gundam anime history off this planet and only the modelkits and toys remain. This franchise is just so trash.
>>22951036wish i had a wife so i could take her to japan and gift her to gyobu
>>22951036>>22951054>>22951073>>22951082>>22951119>Bandai: Yeah, all of you kept asking for it, here you go. Now shut up and leave us alone....Or so it seems.Next P-Bandai might not even be a usual /m/ entry, but maybe Samurai Troopers with cross-compatibility with 30MF?
>>22951082Why does Bandai know i'm gonna order 3?
>>22950438Kitbash: kit made of at least 3 different models
Are bandaibabbies really that starved for good designs by their nepotistic boomer "mechanical designers" that gyobu copying hexa gear has them creaming their pants like it's the second coming of christ?
>>22951212I know there are fags here who think it's a dick but the artist should have given her a loin cloth.
>>22951212>>22951218bigfemininepenis
>>22951212wfm designs are hot garbage and half these guys are forced to like it because of politics so go figure
>>22951233>half these guys are forced to like it because of politicsWhat the fuck are you talking about you lunatic
>>22951244You know what he’s talking about fuckin retard. There’s a reason they call it the woke from mercury
>>22951233>>22951250I'm picturing both of you as basedjack versions of Barbatos because Barbatos is cringe. Stay owned fellas.
>>22951261
>>22951261>>22951267Is this a kit bash with narrative?
>>22951269>kit bashNot really all he did was put the Banshee weapons on it. They're compatible
I liked the witch from mercury because of politics
>>22951082is Dilanza Sol hard to find or something? shit was literally "shelfwarming" for months after it was released, I even bought two for my eternal backlog
>>22951277I thought I liked some of the designs because they looked cool but it turns out I was psyop'd into it by (((Japanese))) space lasers.
ordered a RG Gundam Astray Red Frame and aRG Gundam Epyon, lads. what am I in for?
Has anybody here done the r/gunpla secret santa thing? What was your experience?
>>22951261>>22951267Titans colors really make anything look good.
>>22951276technically, it is, but it's a low-effort kitbash, since as you said, he only added the banshee weapons and antenna on it.
>>22951299Epyon is fantastic, Astray is very whatever.
>>22951301I don't think it's supposed to be titans, it's just gaianotes prism blue black.
>>22951280the Heindrees and Demi Trainers are collecting dust here, then next time they'll become the rarest WFM kits that would sell 5x the retail price.
>>22951307Send the Demi Trainers to me.
>>22950684Reminds me of the Jegans getting taken over by the Neo-Zeong.
Is gaianotes t-07 moderate thinner the same as Mr leveling thinner?
How's the RG Shin Matsunaga's Zaku II? It has the early RG problems too like the other RG Zaku IIs?
>>22951329Yep. It’s pretty much the same thing as the others except different color. Maybe a couple parts different.
>>22951333Well fuck, thanks Anon.
>>22951339rule of thumb is that if the RG is based on an earlier kit, or uses parts from it, expect it to be inherently shit.
>>22951341There's any other RG I should avoid? I heard the RG GaoGaiGar was pretty good.
>>22951345Avoid most rgs that came out before the rg unicorn. The gaogaigar came out after it so it’s probably fine
>>22951261>>22951267beautiful
>>22951277i heard escaflowne is pretty gay, or at least popular among women (same thing)should i watch that next? how many plamo does it have
>>22951356Escaflowne is a shojo with mechas, and an Isekai'd Isaac Newton as the villain.
Is gaia notes t-07 moderate thinner the same as Mr leveling thinner?
>>22951347that's like over half of the RGs....
>>22951347>>22951345the only pre-assembled joint in that kit are the hands. but since RGGGG is a transforming suit, expect it to be a bit flimsy in some areas.
>>22951394Yeah most of them are dogshit. Luckily most of them also have hgs that are actually good and mog the fuck out of their rg equivalent.
Sick of all the newfags asking “is x kit good?” Let me break it down for you nice and simpleIf it’s mg and came out before 2007 (mg zaku ii 2.0), it’s trashIf it’s rg and came out before 2017 (rg unicorn), it’s complete junk
>>22951036There is hope.
>>22951411I didn't ask you
wish we got desultor in the normal line instead of dilanza sol or heindree sturm or zowort heavy
>>22951048Im sorry nigger queer
WHERE IS IT NIGGABUKIYA?I NEEEEEED IT
>>22951345I own it, the mane parts of the StealthGao is a little bit tricky to handle since the tabs don't fit snugly, and the helmet (also StealthGao's) same problem. Otherwise BOKURA NO YUUSHA OH.
>>22951361>Is gaia notes t-07 moderate thinner the same as Mr leveling thinner?
Can i loosen up stiff joints by moving them around?
>>22951518no, you can only do it by shoving them in your asstrust me, sounds crazy but works
>>22951082The fact that we're getting this before the Aries or Taurus really fucking grinds my gears
>>229514655 hours later and that's what you clap back with lmfao
>>22951544Im afraid they might get lost in there

>>22951482They said after they finish reprinting all of the old kits which means. 10 gen 1-3 AC model kit reissues12 Gen 1-3 weapon unit packs2 Gen 4 Weapon unit pack1 Gen IV addon pack1 Gen V weapon packs2 Gen 1-3 head unit packsand 2 Gen 1-3 arm unit packs I am most likely forgetting to subtract a kit or two.maybe add an extra gen 1-3 AC kit if they want to bring out Clear plastic nine ball seraph for whatever reason.
Acrylics can survive lacquer based top coats right?
So I'm kind of impressed so far. The arms and legs require almost zero color correction to make them look like the anime, and what little there is are in accessible areas. It's not like the Bael, which had several pieces that had to be painted in three colors. Lack of inner frame is something I'm happy to live with, though I'm also kind of concerned with how I should be approaching the joints (I'm thinking of just sanding the surfaces slightly to increase tolerances, dull coating them all and calling it a day).I already know and expect the thrusters and shield to be a bit bullshit, but I'm kind of looking forward to the challenge. As before I'm probably not going to attempt seam line removal, the only obvious ones so far are on the knees anyway (and would require some serious masking after cementing them up).
>>22951615just don't go too wet on the first coat
new usagundamstore sale just dropped. 20% off all orders
I was kinda thinking about getting the hguc gerbera tetra. i already have a fuckhuge backlog so i probably wouldn't build it for a while. but considering all the shit that's about to go down, it seems like i should pick it up while it's still $20 before it becomes $40. what do you think?
>>22951660Barely any better/worse than their Veteran's Day sale, and on the whole not as good as Newtype's which has some kits at 25-35% off.
>>22951678they have bigger discounts on some stuffthe website is pretty bad though and if you click through to that "everything on sale" page there's no way to filter by categories like model kits vs tools vs figures
red is a sexy color
What was /gpg/‘s reaction when the mg turn x’s release was first announced? I bet it must have been crazy to see it actually get a good kit, considering how Bandai neglects shows like turn a.
>>22951734I don't even think we had a general yet
>>22951660>>22951686>no special sale on any hexa gear stuff except that one hanger and hook base background kit that has always been on sale for a while nowsiiiiiiigh time to stalk jap sites even more now
>>22951734the reactions are just your usual "yay" kinda like how the MGEX SF was recieved. it only got its current notoriety because it never had a re-release ever since its first run. it's kinda like how Shia Qant became a "unicorn" kit before the recent reissue
>>22951744>it's kinda like how Shia Qant became a "unicorn" kit before it got a bootlegftfy
>>22951398>hgs that are actually good and mog the fuck out of their rg equivalent.in what way?
>>22951752Not him but the HG Sinanju is better in every way compared to the RG
>>22951758ok bros, explain to me like I'm retarded (cuz I am), it's my understanding that RGs have more parts and details than HGs at the same scale. if I enjoy the building aspect of gunpla and not so much the painting and customizing etc so they look bad ass out of the box, are HGs still worth it?
