I built an HG for the first time in one sitting but forgot that you shouldnt cut too close to be part and now theres stress marks here and there FUCK
Hello guys, I have a question. Why come turn a gundam did not get very many no grade model kits? It got 5 1/144s and one recolor, and 3 1/100s. I know it was commercial failure but X got twice the number of kits and it was commercial failure too:
>>23476583It got two 1/100s actually fuck
>>23476583Because seed came out afterwards and was a massive hit
>>23476583This is an English speaking website my friend. You should go ask this question in a community that speaks your native language.
This Zaku says trans rights!
>>23476602What does any of that have to do with Crazy Diamond?
>>23476606The Pink Floyd song?
>>23476583X designs are more orthodox
>>23476614So why the heck did bandai even make the commercial if they weren’t making the toys?
>>23476583Turn A has really really fucking weird designs, so they didn't want to put in the effort it would've required to make good kits.>>23476623Because it was Tomino being Tomino. Same shit happened with Reconguista in G, sometimes they just let the old man do whatever he feels like it.
>>23476602I feel like the best MS to paint with trans flag stripes would probably be a quebeley, they would fit in pretty well with the stock color scheme.otoh the unicorn in unicorn mode would look pretty good with a set of rainbow stripes diagonally across its chest sash-style or something
>more unsold slop from previous catalogues>againI also like how even though it's the first time we're seeing Rose, Maxter, Dragon and Mandala available at the same time, they're deliberately spaced across several months so you're forced to pay the separate shipping cost each time.
>>23476637>I also like how even though it's the first time we're seeing Rose, Maxter, Dragon and Mandala available at the same time, they're deliberately spaced across several months so you're forced to pay the separate shipping cost each time.I genuinely don't understand why they do this. It's not like THEY are the ones getting more money that way.
>>23476637>F90 Cluster>F90 Back Cannon>F80Kits I want, not for those fucking prices though holy fuck man this retarded trade war needs to end.
>>23476643They probably cut a deal with fedex and get like a dollar out of it. This shit is deliberate.
>>23476643bandai has to pay more money on shipping (potentially) if you order multiple things and ship them at once. While they do offer a flat rate for shipping they're still paying for it somewhere and I think that's part of the reason why they took away conslidation.
>>23476647You know those kits retail for 6000 yen (pre-tax) right? Literally 40 bucks. Bandai is jewing us on the currency exchange rates by converting 6000 yen to $60. And they're paying like $3 on tariffs, which are calculated on the cost at port, and jacking up the price another $20. They're literally charging a 100% markup over their P-Bandai e-tailer price. I'm tired of foreign companies treating us like paypigs. The price should be like $45 after tariffs.
>>23476665>And they're paying like $3 on tariffsThis isn't true.>I'm tired of foreign companies treating us like paypigs. Huh wonder if something changed domestically that made them suddenly increase prices by 40% on Penis Bandai kits?Obviously Bandai sucks for using this as an opportunity to overcharge, but you're a fucking idiot if you think they just woke up one day and decided to do this.
gunplah pros, I've recently started considering buying those bootlegs I've seen you guys talk about. I came across this one by the brand of weimei. Anyone bought them before? Experience?
>>23476678Also this one from a brand called XingDong.
If you consoomers want cheaper kits, buy a injection mold machine, learn machining, CAD, and start your own bootleg company. Become the next Axis Models instead of bitching
>>23476685>You are now a consoomer for wanting to buy kits of mobile suits you like.
>>23476685So, order from CHYNAH?But for real though, how keen are the chinese with custom orders? Like /m/ could in theory pool together to meet the Minimum Order Qty and get some chinese factory to produce it for us. Shipping will obviously be a bitch since we're all scattered all over the world so logistics seems like the main challenge.
>>23476678the build on these is fine, but the kits are going to look like absolute ass unless you put serious work into them. the waterslide decals they come with are not going to make a good looking camo pattern and it's a better idea to paint it yourself.
>>23476706I see, thanks.
>>23476671>This isn't true.Yeah it is. They're shipping to themselves. They can declare the value as nearly the same as the cost from the factory because they're their own buyers. Maybe a 10-20% markup over the value from the factory to account for the fact their US branch is doing distribution. I doubt it's more than 1/4th the MSRP. I'm being generous to say it's $3. Japan has a 15% tariff. >but you're a fucking idiot if you think they just woke up one day and decided to do this.Yea they did, actually. You're a drooling subhuman who doesn't understand how tariffs work. They're using this an excuse to completely rip people off.
>>23476717>You're a drooling subhuman who doesn't understand how tariffs work.Who put the tariffs on Japan? Just wondering.
>>23476671Japan is the one paying the tariffs dumbass
>>23476726>a $3 tariff turns a $40 kit into a $80 kitlol, lmao. The bandai cocksucking has reached new heights.
>>23476694No, it's because of retards like >>23476726 who want to shit up the thread instead of actually do anything about it. Do what every other modeler has done since forever. If you can't get it, make your own, then sell it.
>>23476738>Japan is the one paying the tariffslmao
>>23476738>Japan is the one paying the tariffs dumbassClearly not, since everything is going up in price. Did you really think entire countries were going to shrug their shoulders and accept losing an ungodly amount of money? The only people who actually have to deal with the ramifications of this are the common man, companies/countries don't care since not only are they not paying the tariffs if we're looking at pure profit margins, but in some cases they get to make even more. Plus all those tariff taxes are going straight into the pockets of the people on the top so they also don't give a fuck.
>JUST CONSOOOOOOM AND BUY A MACHINE!!! YOU MUST CONSOOOOM A $10,000 MACHINE BEFORE YOU ARE EVER ALLOWED TO BE UPSET AT YOUR GOVERNMENT MAKING YOUR LIFE WORSE!!!!
>>23476754But I was told we weren’t gonna be the ones paying it
>>23476760Unironically, yes. Bootleg it.
>>23476763Lots of people were told a lot of things, none of which ended up being true.
>>23476747Just buy a resin printer. You're not going to mold shit with those. Not to mention you'll have to pay thousands just to get 3-phase power installed. I don't know how, you can still buy resin printers for pretty much the same price they were before china got hit with tariffs.
>>23476763You were lied to. It's literally not how tariffs work.
>>23476773What the hell how was this even allowed to happen? This just made life worse for us for no reason.
>>23476781Because you voted for it.
>>23476637Waiting for them to release another fucking effects set for the Shining Gundam just like the God Gundam
>>23476785and I'm happy I did and would do it again.
>>23476785I just wanted the woke shit to stop man I didn’t vote for this.
>>23476781You allowed this to happen because you don't understand how things work and never bothered to learn or pay attention.>>23476791lmao"woke" shit is the distraction and you idiots fell for it.
>>23476791They literally campaigned on massive tariffs and isolationism. What did you expect to happen?

>>23476797make a thread about it, I'm here to look at shitty plastic, not bitch about why you can't buy some shitty plastic
>>23476717Errrrm actually it doesn’t work like that. Customs checks to make sure companies aren’t taking advantage of related party transactions to fudge the numbers. They will compare the value against what they’re giving to unrelated us distributors for similar products.
https://x.com/Kotobukiya_akb/status/1960902122830225425
>>23476835>Customs checks to make sure companies aren’t taking advantage of related party transactions to fudge the numbersBNTCA does distribution directly ever since Bandai bought Bluefin some years ago. And it also controls the retailer, P-Bandai. And it controls the manufacturing, done directly in japan. They pretty much control the supply chain end to end, except for delivery to consumers. There aren't any unrelated US distributors CBP can compare against. They'd probably just ok a reasonable mark up over the factory price on which to apply a tariff, or if Bandai looks like they're doing something fishy, try to estimate it based on retail price.

>>23477019Mr Color is pretty good if you add a drop of paint retarder in it. Gaianotes makes a good one
>>23476602Not blink enough. Should add glitter to it.

Bandai is still reprinting 2003 Zaku? That's nice.
>>23476974Not as good as my shelf, sorry.
>Another run of the gunraidJust fucking. Make. It. Retail. Already.
>>23477141P-Bandai is the eternal jail. Unless you are a really popular mech, then there is no chance.
>>23477141you expect bandai to release new molds as retail releases? lmaoenjoy your recolors instead
>Punimofu Xiao is out in Japani hope i get one. the Lang sold out pretty fast here resellers are already marking up the price!

>>23477232I'd rather have the shoe.
>>23477232
>>23477232I feel like this looks better being displayed by the runners like in the pic. It'll be scalped to hell though.
>>23477252thank god it's normalfag slop so i really don't care what happens with it.
>>23477232wtfWhat's the target audience for this? Seriously, I didn't even know there's an overlap between sports fans and kit builders. The people who hoard branded shoes, I presume want the actual shoes.
>>23477275>normalfag slopDo they or would they even be into building a kit of shoes?
>>23477279Modelkit is not all about giant robots and tanks. There people who like mundane things.
>>23477279Bandai wants a share of the sneakerfag audience, the ones who have the most dispenasble income right now.
New Chinkino's coming.
>>23477286this notDom is surprisingly one of the better chinkshits coming out recently!
>>23477279Niggers
>>23477286>>23477290Why is it randomly covered in cheese graters?
>>23477232those giant L and R because they have to cater to retards
>>23477281they would buy it twist a couple of bits off the sprue realise it fits like shit due to twisted nubs and give up on it out of a mixture of boredom and frustration
>>23477284those are cool because you can use them with your "Hard Graph" kits which reminds me I should keep my eyes out for others
>>23477298Sneed holes like the ones you see on a Izubuchi design.
>>23477298Cuz it's a chinkfied Kampfer.
>>23477330clearly more of a Dom
>>23477286Tha bazooka is awful. Looks like a fancy marker
How many will you buy it?
>>23477387Try again, sweetie
>>23477286the whole thing is less than the sum of it's parts imo. individually the head, arms and torso all look cool but they don't look like they belong together
>>23477396Yeah it feels like the design can't decide which mobile suit it wants to rip off the most.
>>23477286The Rick-Dompfer
>>23477279>What's the target audience for this?I think 'urban youth demographic' is the marketing term for them
i have an order at surugaya that was dropped off at japan post a day before the announcement was made. is my order stuck in limbo or is it going to get rerouted to DHL?
>>23477286Ain't one of those just straight up the Sazabi's beam shotgun?
>>23477439Its gonna be returned to sender.
>>23477204Why didn’t you pre order it? I got it on koto official us online webshop
I know I’m not allowed to like seedslop but this kind of goes hard
>>23477635SEED linearts and show look abysmal, the redesigns they do for model kits (especially the MG and FMs) are pretty good. Although some of the backpacks are still too big and ugly, like the Forbidden.
>>23477635It's literally the same as any other seed slop, what is this retarded cope, just man up and admit you like seed shit, moron
>>23477653Bro I never realized how much game forbidden had without its backpack
>>23477669Unironically, the whole hate on Seed stuff is starting feel whiny and faggy. There is no perfect anime and there is nothing wrong with liking them. Retards around here keep trying to get approval from the collective and ultimately losing their individuality as a result. Wingfags are way more confident, professing their love to Relena and all.
>>23477695wingGODs… we won…
>>23477286
You called me crazy when I was building my box fort. Whose laughing now?!
>>23477713Kek, the Changs literally can't create their own things anymore
>>23477716You can still see some of these retards whining about how we have a “le addiction” even after they got rekt by tariff tips.
>>23477716>Three MKV boxesSentinelfags are a whole different breed
>>23477775i think you mean sentinelGODS, anon
u getting it?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Bd170IrZuI
>>23477635Seed has good designs though. I've no problem complaining about the show itself, but the mech designs are good.
>>23477791Delete 90% of the greebles then i will consider
>>2347779100 Ricer
>>23477791I'm interested but I already bought Dark Matter
>>23477793But muh backpacks are ugleh and suits are overdesigned>proceeds to drool all over aoz
>>23477635I'm happy that Legend finally gets a modern plamo with a backpack the same size as in the anime but I still wish we'd get a modern 1/144 Providence
>>23477791I'm in the middle of painting the Asgard right now and like it a lot so I'm sure the Valkyrie is a solid kit too but it's 00 styling doesn't do much for me
looks like stores are going to start getting their mg the o's in the next few weeks
>>23477678Yeah holy shit it really does look so much better without it.
>>23477844>13,000 Yen initial priceI'm good with Daban's
>>23477826it's really quite simple; AOZ is a UC P-bandai niche indie gem. seed is normgroid sloppa
>>23477834If bootleggers can scale down the MG providence, they will have my allegiance
>>23477279I guess they're trying to copy the fact lego did it. tho I think it only worked with lego because lego fans are retardedly brand loyal and buy anything with the lego logo on it. bandai does not have the same household-name pull that lego has
>>23477869i might grab one to sell later anyways. how good is the bootleg?
>>23477252The kit comes with the shoes, which are are sold on P-Bandai amazingly. The reverse shadow Jordans are apparently exclusive to Japan.
Don't care.I will NEVER buy a gbitch kit.I will NEVER buy a gcucks kit.I WILL buy more Wing kits.I WILL buy more Seed kits.I WILL buy more IBO kits.I WILL buy X kits (when I'm in the mood for it).
>>23477896I think it’s actually considered better. I know one of the major criticisms of Bandai’s The O is that it isn’t as intricate as other MG’s were for that time period and that it only comes with two beam blades despite having four sabers. The Daban kit has four blades for all the sabers
>>23477896Pretty bad, but so was Bandai's.Bootleg;s flaws can easily be fixed with glue or sand paper anyway.
>>23477240Can't wait to see how they pulled it off, given that stickers or decals weren't mentioned in its description, and how it compares to the Plamax.
>>23477240Moderoid is fucking trash
>>23477959what no they aren't
>>23477804you want an ESL Qant then
https://youtu.be/ZwNpLsTSIsUI don't wanna buy the EG, but it looks kinda better
>>23477983artist-respecting wise, EG Nu gundam is better, but the joints are very simplified. the knees are particularly ugly. HGUC has better joints.
"artist respecting" has to be one of the worst buzzwords in this general
>>23477941yeah I can manage any fixes, I've just never bought a bootleg before>>23477925I want one and the scale is the biggest draw. Bad inner-frame is inconsequential imo and lack of surface detail is fine since I've been wanting to get into custom scribing and pla-plating. The drawbacks don't seem like the worst thing but it's a bit absurd when it's listed for $170 CAD
>>23477983Guy sounds few steps away from turning into Norio Wakamoto
>>23477983Any reason the RG isn't an option if you're looking for 1/144 scale? The EG looks nicer but the joints in particular always go on EG kits. You'll also have to buy the funnels separately.
The only artist I respect is GODtoki.
https://www.amiami.com/eng/detail/?gcode=FIGURE-191018 would that be good for gunpla ? I'm assuming too small for mg, but might be good for hg
>>23478076I hate the extra greeble that they added to the design, also feet looks fucking tiny as fuck
>>23478089They seem pretty solid. I have one I've used for a HG and it's still standing without issue. I hear the Bandai versions of these break very easily but I'm not sure what the difference is. Either way, these stands are really built to support standing poses rather than flying poses.
>>23478113Good to know, I'll pick up some. I think the bandai one doesn't have screws (the one meant for hg, not the bigger one, that one has screws)
It's crazy how every RG is a kit killer of its MG counterpart. The time of MGs has come to an end.
>>23478191RG is my favourite line but the MG 00 kits still look much better than the RGs.
>>23478191I will still buy an MG over an RG. Just because I can do alot with a 1/100 than a 144 scale model.
>>23478191I don't buy 1/144.MG forever
>>23478191Most RGs are overdesigned or are running the advanced MS joints for most of it's frame so no, I'd easily take a MG kit over a RG any time of the day
>>23478207>>23478230Just know that you're investing on a dying grade.
>>23478191I’ll never buy RG. They should get rid of HG is they want 1/144 so badly
>>23478235it’s not an investment unless you’re a scalper
>>23478235Besides RG is limited to the mainline mobile suit and doesn't offer a lot of variety.
>>23478240Everything you do with money, and time, is an investment, unless you are wasting it
>>23478191Zeta Ver Ka mogs the RG in looks even ignoring how it is more solid in both forms structurally.
>>23478244Thank you for the room temperature IQ take.
>>23478243This is the only valid criticism I see about RGs. However many of the newer HG releases look better than older MGs, I guess Bandai is just focusing on HG for the majority of mechs and leaving RG for the most popular ones. In any case it's clear they are prioritizing 144 over 1/100, whether it be RG or HG.
>>23478244For your sake I really hope this was just very low effort bait.
>>23478191MGs reek of virginity. Like "hey girl want to see my BIG GIANT ROBOT that I have?" Instant ick. As opposed to HGs and RGs that will make the girl go "wow anon these little robots you have on your shelf are so cute! UwU"
>>23478247Only exception that will turn redundant once Bandai releases the inevitable Zeta 2.0
Only people with smol peepees are insecure about MGs and would prefer RGs and HGs.

School started, turn off your phones and pay attention in class you faggots.
>>23478259Also PG, because having a over engineered brick that can’t stand without multiple supports and a $700 price tag is going to be a big hit that will sale millions of units

Hypothetically, if I fucked up the decals for Hi-Nu funnels. Where could I buy a new sheet?

>>23478262Do RG's cone with water transfers now instead of stickers?
>>23478319>I have family money.May I have some?
>>23478314aliexpressgetchu some flaming snow, yan or evo decals, identical quality and lower price
>>23478287Did you not read that only smol peepee people prefer hgs and rgs?
>>23478323P-Bandai RGs do. Retail comes with stickers.
>>23478330Well that's just super gay.
>>23478314How did you fuck up the decals?
>>23478283I only have the Unicorn and Red Frame. Unicorn is better than you'd expect but Red Frame has problems holding the sword
>>23478320>start the VaginaWhat did he mean by this
>>23478338Presumably he's using the Bandai decals which suck balls.
>>23478338Procrastination mostly. The sheet started to curl and did a stupid thing of straightening it.
>>23478332While stickers are disappointing they tend to look good or at least better than you'd expect on RGs because the borders are usually cut well. The silver foil stickers they come with are also awesome
>>23478347>they tend to look good or at least better than you'd expect on RGs because the borders are usually cut wellMassively depends on the kit. The stickers with the RG God gundam are awful. No reason to use stickers, other than foil stickers, when it's so easy to get decals.
>>23478346You realize you are supposed to cut the decals out with a hobby knife then dip them in water right? Maybe 2 at once as you dip for 5 sec, let it soak outside the water for 15-30s, then apply?
>>23477719if you don't build through the whole backlog before the tax gets repealed, you lost
>>23477791not bulky enough compared to asgard, that's a miss from me
>>23478274I'm 30... gonna have to swap to boomer tank/train autism soon
>>23478354I super soak mine and let the decal float in the water so that I can frantically scoop it out with a tweezer then apply it on top of a puddle of mark setter.
>>23478363I've never had to mark setter a decal the way I described, but I also top coat everything with decals.
>>23478314That's what you get for getting the MG instead of the RG
>>23478354Hard to cut them when the whole sheet has started to crumple you understand?
>>23478380Are you dunking the whole sheet in water?
Finished my HG rx-91. Watched the movie after i bought this. It was fun, but I did not understand much. Cool model tho
>>23478383Forgot the photo lol
>>23478314I unhypothetically did fuck up the funnel slides on my MG hi- Nu because it was my first time, but thankfully Ebay had some replacements
>>23478382Where the fuck did you see me saying that I do them like a retard? The fucking sheet is at least 6 years old so it has started decay due to improper storage.
>>23478385You could have at least posted it for us.
>>23478389I attached it in the reply. If you cant see it then idk what's going on
>>23478383>>23478385I have never heard the F91 referred to as the RX-91 before and was confused without the picture.Also don't worry about the movie, it decided to off screen most character development and 30% of the actual events and make it seem like it takes place over a day instead of a month (or a couple?).I've always liked how beam shields look. Also there needs to be more stuff like the Crossbone Vanguards beam flags.
>>23478385okay post your thighs then

>>23478497Never denied it fuckwad. Just asked where to buy a new sheet and a dumbass started to spew know how that everyone already knows.
What kit disappointed you most
>>23478550wave 1/144 knight of gold
>>23478273You jest but my I gifted my ex a MGSD Wing Zero and she loved it.
>>23478550hg aerial kindait's my favorite ace in a while but the kit is a bit inconsistent
>>23478550RE 1/100 Vigna Ghina kind bummed me out, definitely would hesitate it to call it a bad kit but I don't know, I think it was just that since it's 1/100 but obviously just canonically small it made for a pretty unsatisfying build.
>>23478424nta but the hg F91 is like 15 yurobucks (or at least was back when I bought it)
just realised i have so many wips that have been say on sticks from months to years i wont have any sticks to paint my group build... better finish some stuff for once
>>23478593don't listen to that angel on your shoulder. just buy more sticks.
>>23478612my preorder... please..... i'll shilll your bland youtubeslop reviews on basket weaving forums just send me my item..
>>23478569F90-91 era kits have to be made in 1/100 only because they’re way too small otherwise
>>23478612The Norwood Reaper got him good.
>>23478629Bro your HG F91? Your RG Crossbone?
>>23478612Zak, leave the boxes alone. They didn't do anything to upset you. They're innocent.
>>23478644NTA, as an anon previously stated above, small mecha kits are rather unsastifying to build.
>>23478662HG GN Archer is satisfying to build though
>>23478683GN Archer has much more volume than you think. She has small main body but with a giant backpack. Also, old HG and pretty cheap.

>>23478662bizarre statement>>23478644the late uc and wing rgs are actually too big and out of scale
>>23478287Sho nuff
>>23478707Not by very muchLess off than the MG V2
The more I look at the Gunraid the more I want it.
>>23478742Looks near enough (this is the MGs)
KINO HAS ARRIVED.
>>23478742That's the first RG ever. I think the 2.0 is a bit taller
>>23478754Also the F91 MG for additional comparison since I was on the page
Anon is honestly just seething over Epyon and nothing else. The X-1 RG is the same size as the HGUC X-1, which is right in line with the HGUC F91/V/V2. The Wing is also the same size as HGAC Wing. They just decided that Epyon wasn't just a little taller it was now a lot taller.
>>23478764I just can't stop seeing the Epyon as a rehashed Master Gundam.
>>23478707the late UC RGs are fine (there is only one, the Crossbone). It's the Late UC HGUCs (specifically victory) that are too big.
>>23478772Given the MG V2 is also too big, they might have just retconned the height.
>>23478772It has a small amount of extra height but it's really not that egregious, it's basically all in the legs so it's not the hardest fix if you're so inclined
>>23478755Tell me how the build and kit are. I was considering buying it but something just gave me a bad feeling about it.
>>23478772>It's the Late UC HGUCs (specifically victory) that are too big.What's with this exaggeration on late UC's MS being fucking Scopedog sized? They are like 3 meters shorter than the early UC generation, which typically 18 meters tall. They are short, not microscopic. It is just those 18 meters tall robots already look small in 1/144 scale so late UC stuff feels underwhelming.
>>23478805My shrunken head doll Victory.
>>23478805They're ultimately just a head shorter, more or less. 2cm in 1/144, 3cm in 1/100. Not even since they're all varying fractional levels above 15m headheight (.2, .7) that take it down even more. That said, V shouldn't be taller than F91.
>>23477106And people say this thing needs a revive.
So you're telling me /gpg/ was overexaggerating innocuous bullshit the entire time? Say it ain't so.
how do i recast? parts?
>>23478830I don't recall widespread claims about improper scale outside of MG V2, which is absolutely too large. The Crossbones are the largest small-scale Gundams by almost a whole metre depending on which you compare against but that's kinda lost in most of the kits too. V and V2 are the tallest in basically every line, but it should really be X-1 > V2 > F91 = V. And all this ignores the v-fins.
>>23477387if this was a retail release i'd consider it, but I already bought a Heavy Weapons Nu to give my EG Nu all the weapons two years ago, so this being P-Bandai and also three years late and overpriced so it can fuck off.
>>23478838It is a retail release thoughever
>>23478841Is it? I must be going senile.

>>23478846Huh. Still, I wonder why the fuck it took them 4 years to release the most obvious option set in the world.
>>23478834you can get decent results with oyamaru moulds and a mix of green stuff and milliput for some parts (polandanon uses this method for recasting girlpla option parts) but personally i've always used 2 part sillicone moulds and 2 part casting resinthis is the tutorial i referenced when first learning about it https://reprap.org/wiki/Moldmaking_Tutorial

>>23478877I've been thinking about that kit for a while and planning to get it sometime when Bandai stops making official slop I like so much, what didn't you like about it in detail?
>>23478837>MG V2, which is absolutely too large. Sometimes gunpla makes things out of scale, but i don't find Victory Ver Ka to be that offensive. The real elephant in the room would be Sazabi. It is actually only 1 meters taller than Nu, head height wise, the rest is due to its horns. But thanks to the weird Mandela Effect of Sazabi being a super huge behemoth, the modelkits always make it so much taller than Nu.
Bros...I love the Tallgeese...
>>234789031/60 Metal Structure for reference. This is their height in-universe.
>>23478906you're not allowed to like anything wing related. I demand an apology
>>23478912Frankly the Tallgeese is so good I forget it's even from Wing sometimes. Everything about it just feels too good for Wing.
>>23478912Why does wing get a bad rap on here? I thought it was beloved in America and even in Japan one of the more popular shows.
>>23478882Terrible plastic quality, very brittle, breaks/marks easily, mold marks everywhere, tons of fitting issues, incorrect details, barely any pieces snap together correctly. Stickers being bad kinda goes without saying but the stickers that come with this kit are all crooked and not even fucking cut correctly, it's like they didn't even try. Just to be clear, I'm talking about the bootleg HG Stargazer, not the Bandai one. I stopped building it after the torso, head and right arm. Just dropped it entirely.
>>23478916>Why does wing get a bad rap on here?As someone who had no nostalgia for it and only watched it for the first time a couple years ago, I think literally the only reason people still like it is because of nostalgia. None of the main cast are remotely interesting enough to care about (Heero is just a walking meme autist, Wufei is decent, Duo at least is alright, Trowa fucking sucks, and I can't even remember the arab dude's name) but the villains (Treize and Zechs) are somehow really fucking good. Part of this is because Zechs is the most shameless Char clone ever, but he still works because Char works. Treize is actually really fucking cool and super unique to Wing, nothing but praise for him as a character but that makes it really fucking suck when he just leaves the story for like 10 episodes straight.Endless Waltz is good though.
>>23478903It makes them look better next to each other.
>>23478916Wing is essentially The Room before The Room came into existence. Both the storyline and the way characters behave is so over the top and random. And i don't think it is overhated here, just divisive. Alot of anons are still talking about Dorothy and Relena fondly. In retrospect, Wing is a love story between Heero and Relena, you kinda feel invested into it and want to see it go somewhere. Whatever the space politic sludge Wing has is just the background and best ignored.
>>23478830Being a miserable whiny fuck is a full time job for 90% of the posters here.
>>23478925I forgot to add that 00 does literally everything Wing does except 10x better. Even 00's S2 being a stark downgrade is still mostly on part with Wing's standard quality.
>>23478867>>23478880thanks a lothow much do i disassemble a part i want to recast? like how it came on the runners or i can put it in completed?
>>2347893100 is bad.
>>23478934You're allowed to think that, but it means that you should also think Wing is even worse or else you're objectively wrong.
>>23478931I fail to find 00 having any charms Wing has. Atleast Wing didn't try to introduce aliens in Endless Waltz and Heero didn't become an AYYLMAO hybrid with god like power. It kept itself relatively grounded and even tried to be hillarious sometimes.
>>23478937I haven't watched Wing. I just take offense to the suggestion that 00 was actually a good story. It's basically the Teletubbies of political dramas, featuring an occasional guest star appearance from a mech every 20-minute monologue.
>>2347893700 Doesn't have our autistic queen Relena. Checkmate.
>>23478938>tried to be hillarious sometimes.Wing never "tried" to be hilarious it was just written like shit and had a terrible dub that made the already shitty story now sound funny.
>>23478940>I haven't watched Wing.Okay then go take part in a discussion that isn't related to Wing.
ight lil bros not reading all that but I just wanna say I love Wing and I don't care about niggers thinking it's "bad"ight peace gang
Wing has good gunpla, thus I consider it good thoughbeit.
>>23478947Perchance
>>23478942>Wing never "tried" to be hilarious>DubYeah no, even with Japanese voice, the dialogue and how the scenes play out is still absolutely unhinged. The way Relena gets so downbad for Heero like this is absolutely not meant to be taken seriously.
>>23478956It was the 90's. People genuinely thought this was cool.
>>23478951Of the lifekind
>>23478961>People genuinely thought this was cool.It is not "cool". That is your typical shoujo romance, except being done in a more ridiculous fashion. And friendly reminder that Katsuyuki Sumizawa wrote alot of comedy anime. He is not the type of edgelord like Koichi Ohata.
>>23478917I assumed you were talking about the Star Glory or whatever they called it, the bootleg 1/100 definitely-not-but-totally-is Stargazer.
>>23478956Brother, you have no idea how women work.
>>23478984I'm too much of a cheapskate to get that one.
>>23478933really depends on the part. gates on runners for plastic injection are way too small for resin casting so you're going to want to cut them out. a lot of parts you can probably just cast assembled, but it really depends on the part and what you want to do with it. like e.g. if you have a part that needs other parts to slot into it you might need to cast it with a rod in it so you can remove the rod to keep the hole (similar to injection slide moulding) or otherwise drill into the solid resin after casting. like for the parts in that wip pic, i had a lot of issues with tolerances and ended up just getting rid of all the pegs and supergluing part halves together. honestly you're just going to have to experiment and figure it out for yourself, if you can't rotate a 3d object in your minds eye you might have a bit of trouble and just need to trial and error it. recasting really isn't that simple to be honest
>>23478933also tip: if you go the casting resin route rather than polandanon's oyumaru putty route, instead of casting the resin with gravity get a syringe and inject the resin into the mould with force, you get much better results. don't forget your air holes either
>>23478769Wait till you hear about the Virsago
This is a model kit thread, stop talking about anime.
>>23478903Measuring mine it's somewhere around 23 to 24cm tall so it's not far off. Haven't put together the Nu ver Ka still after all these years so I can't measure it though.

>>23478550RG 2.0. it was a nightmare to build because every inner frame part look like incomprehensible blobs, wspecially if you're the type who removes everything from the sprue before assembling it.

>>23479117>removes everything from the sprue before assembling it.Hello Studio G
I don't pre-assemble because taking things apart has always been a gigantic pain in the ass. It's come back to bite me a few times because something wasn't covered as much as I thought but eh.
most gundam shows are fun and enjoyable watches but only 79, Z, CCA, and turn A are genuinely great
>>23479190this is why modelers have this tool in handy. also splitting the female connectors with nippers helps with separating parts easier.
>>23479201this is just an overpriced spudger
>>23478873I would say the MG ReGZ 1.5 is pretty good for what it is, since ReGZ is disappointing anyway.
>>23479201.... what does the button do?
>>23479193You forgot about G gundam
>>23479201I have one of those from a different brand but it's also really fucking easy to scratch the part by accident.
>>23479221Yeah because it's metal. It's naturally going to scratch the part.
>>23479203Every single tool used by true modelers is just an overpriced version of something else. Pic related is the tool that airbrushes are a needlessly complicated version of.
>>23479116We knew that, they’ll be available again once things get sorted out
>>23479124on 99% of kits it's just more efficient and it's blatantly obvious what parts are based on the manual and looking at them. i've never built the rg 2.0 but i've also never run into a kit where you can't just look at the manual and your pile of parts and see what's what. you don't have numbers/letters to work with when you're reassembling the kit after painting anyway so surely you already know this
>>23479201nah, the best way of taking models apart is ripping pieces off each other and break every piecenow you have battle damage
>>23479201This is a case where the Bandai official part separator is better. Things like the dspiae one will scratch or crack plastic because of a metal tip. The bandai one, which is like 7 bucks and readily available is just a small piece of blue plastic that will not damage a kit.
>>23479190never understood people that say this. bandai kits in particular have no issues being taken apart after assembly, some other company's kits (like koto and gsc) you might have to snip a few connection holes because their tolerances can be rather tight sometimes
>>23479124It's extremely efficient.
>>23479251then you dip each piece in a bottle of enamel paint of your choosing
>>23479257>bandai kits in particular have no issues being taken apart after assemblyA lot of the older kits, especially MG, had an obnoxious amount of smaller peg pieces to hold armor to the frame which could potentially break off. Then other parts would have those same small pegs but only one or two to hold a part like a gun barrel that should have been part of the mold
>>23479201I would rather not use this, try to get a plastic one since the metal scrapes the plastic if you slip.

Yes I used stickers No I don't regret it4th kit ever and best by far
Why come it seems like hajime katoki remakes other people’s designs more than he makes his own designs? First you had gundam wing endless waltz, then there was all the ver kas and linearts he does for model kits, then there was gundam unicorn, and recently he’s remaking Hathaway designs like this gustav karl. I thought some of his oc donut steels like tallgeese were pretty good and he could have just done his own thing instead of fixing other peoples shit.
Man, I don't even have the heart to browse P-Bandai anymore. The price hikes hurt a bit, but stacking tariffs on top of that just means that shit isn't worth buying anymore.

have a weird question that’s not really on topic but I don’t know where else to ask. I’m trying to repair some headphones, and I’ve been trying to use Tamiya Extra Thin cement to weld some plastic together. It’s got gaps that need to be filled, though, so I was wondering if I could let it cure entirely and use the baking soda + superglue trick on top of that. But I’m dumb and I don’t know about chemical interactions, so I don’t want to fuck up.

Hows the gold decals on this kits? Do they flake off even after coating it or is it not preferable to do a topcoat?
>>23480000>a sticker that sticks perfectly at the dome?Bandai made literall dome shaped stickers and they are trash. Either leave it be or paint it, sticker sucks.
>>23480054they're just metallic stickers so they don't really dull when you topcoat it with gloss. of course it will lose its shine in flat top coat though.
>>23480056to be fair, those dome stickers are fairly new. they only started using it on Narrative Ver Ka. they're the same as those jewel stickers your sister uses for her scrapbook
>>23479837>>23479843make me wonder if the extension would work for the FATFAG
>>23480059Bandai would rather make more weird type of stickers rather than giving you a decal sheet. What a dogshit company.
>>23480057I have never done any metallic stickers, so i dont know how well they hold up over time.
All of the AOZ kits I’ve built so far are so great. Why can’t all HG be like this?
>>23480095Most of modern HG are up to that level, having full plastic joints instead of polycaps.
>>23479201Metal part separators mar up the parts. I've been using this thing for over 20 years. I have no idea who made it or where I even got it. The two flat ends on the bottom are like the guitar picks but stronger. The fork end is tapered goes around posts and slowly pulls them apart as you push it in so you don't break the pegs.

>>23480138>>23480110Barzam and Woundwort is not really floppy, it is just their legs have too much articulation due to transformation mechanics. Abit janky, but not offensive.
>>23480138Barzam II isn't really floppy nor is Barzam. Woundwort's torso connection isn't great though, neither are the arms. Funnily chink kits make for nicer builds of the Woundwort since they're often too tight to the point where some parts need a little sanding. Even with that though, the CSB weighs a ton if it's ever hefting it and you'll get a droop to one side eventually. The Woundwort legs are slightly fiddly but it's mostly just the little side bits that are easy to glue down. The inner structure is definitely way overcomplicated purely to replicate the transformation though and I wish they'd release a TR-6 with only the flip-up-shins feature of it. The Barzam II is very stable once you glue the thighs, making a purpose built thigh purely for the "plug another leg in" feature would be even nicer. Also a much more rigid torso, the stupid sliding lower center piece is annoying as shit.
Do I build the Gundam mode's armor even though I'm only interested in the Frog mode?

>>23480337They really cain’t make a new one because Russia is le bad?
>>23480113tariffs are on topic but everyone else arguing about buzzwords and the thigh faggot need to kill themselves
>>23480345The thigh faggot also needs to join the 41%.
>>23480295Something's wrong with this Mandala gundam
>>23480341Same reason Bandai has been avoid making Zanscare kits because they are Jewish villains.
>>23480363Zanscare is Jewish?
>>23476370Snapping together Turn A made me feel like rewatching the show. Maybe it's time to check out those compilation movies
question about the 30mm alto ground type. is the connection for the treads into the housing a 3mm peg, and can other things be plugged into the housing beside the treads?
>>23480363Elaborate on thatunironically want to know
>>23479638you forgot to paint it
>>23480416No, I didn’t. But thanks for caring.
>>23480376
>>23480427thank you anon. i looked everywhere for an upload of the manual but i couldn't find one.
>>23480416I don't paint every kit. The majority get mediumsnapped with just panel lines, decals, and top coat.
>>23480422yes you did>>23480454why even bother
>>23480454Thats just snapshitting with an extra step
OOB is SOUL
>>23480473Maybe for action figures and dolls but not model kits
>>23480454I used to do this but once I got decent at painting, I started regretting doing that to my earlier kits instead of just leaving them as snapshits
>>23480456>>23480464Because they look better than they do OOB, and I can make more progress on the box fort. I'm not particularly limited by spending on kits, I'm limited by build time and there are a lot of kits I want to build.Also I build model kits for my own enjoyment and not internet kudos. I just wanted to complain about applying decals being tedious last night.
>>23480496I used to think like this when I was in my 20s, now that I'm 30 I see the error of my ways. I wish I could go back and properly paint everything. Maybe one day you'll grow out of it.
>>23480508>30 years old>Proud of nagging other men for how they build their toysHoly pathetic
>>23480508I'm an old guy which is why I don't have tons of time.Also I do paint kits I like a lot, the Zeta just isn't one as transforming suits aren't for me. I do like it enough to where I want one in my collection of main character suits.
>>23480520Sure, but still not as pathetic as someone who snaps models together. I am still a step above you which is really sad lol
Gunpla is freedom.
I unironically have more respect for people who paint their gunpla in shitty pride flag colors than people who think topcoat and panel lines are 'le good enoigh'
>>23480524No actually I think basically everybody would agree that being proud of acting like this at 30 is more pathetic than even just snapping shit OOB and being done with it.
>>23480529the only type I don't respect are the ones who paint a kit in the same colors and think they're better than the topcoat+liner crowd and the snapfriends when they only did factory work with 0 creativity involved
>>23480546How dare people make the suit look accurate to the show!
>>23480552That’s fine, just don’t pretend you’re some superior hobbyist for following a color guide.
>>23480380Atleast one of them is.
>>23480555in scale modeling, especially military, colour accuracy is serious business! if your camo colour is from a wrong era or a couple of values off, you'll get laughed at.
>>23480555you can still be creative and make decisions within the "canon" colors. insisting on changing the colors solely to be unique just makes you seem insecure
do you even need this much articulation?
>>23480555I didn't, I posted a kit I was putting decals on as we are encouraged to post WIPs in this thread and I also wanted to complain about tediousness.That said, your sperg out was preferable to all the Gundam anime discussion in the last few threads, so thanks for that.
>>23480583But you didn't paint your kit or give others shit did you? The comment wasn't aimed at you
>>23480473Only the OOB without waterslide decals, panel line and topcoat is soul. Minimal and sincere.
>>23480552Yeah, exactly! They should be painting it even though it's already color accurate in plastic!
>>23480567I mean, that's kinda true. You paint a jet in pink and expect compliment. However, mecha models are more flexible and easier to get away with the bullshit.
>>23480572That's precisely the divide in the hobby though, some get a kit for what it represents and others as a canva I don't think one is superior to the other and there's certainly overlap, but belittling a category of hobbyist while failing to see you're also part of it is ridiculous
>>23480484>>23480576What is this from? Is there new rg?
>>23480590I also paint kits, and when I do they are color accurate. Someone who does a custom paint job is fine, but they are doing a worse job than the color guide followers are being color inaccurate is bad modeling. Its fine to do so if you enjoy it, but then you aren't modeling and are instead just making 3D art.For modeling - Diorama makers > Color accurate w/weathering > Color accurate painting > everything else equal.>>23480605I mean some aren't, but really it's to cover up nub marks and fix color discoloration in the plastic from non-event pigment spread.
>>23480605>They should be painting it even though it's already color accurate in plastic!The real purpose of paint is to hide the nubs.
>>234806183rd party joints to give the RG Exia, 00 and Qan[T] better range
>>23480621Oic
>>23477945It's airbrushing time
>>23480624>all those stickershell
I built one of the freedom black knight kits the other day and that whole "seed action system" they have plastered on the box feels very underwhelming oh wow I can wiggle the torso side to side, the kit in general feels very stiff
>>23480630>stickersif fucking only would save me time from manually measuring and masking.
>>23480634It'll get looser over time. Just in its case, it'll loosen to be really nice instead of being floppy.
>>23480624This is also a reason to paint. They should just give stickers that are premade paint masks at that point.>>23480634The system has the kits be stiff so they can be in dynamic poses and stay in them even with SEED's giant backpacks and sometimes weapons. Being stiff is good for that.
non-water decals are the bestfuck water
>>23480630they're water decals
>>23480634Marketing is a hell of a drug. The names change but the quality and system doesn't. We had shit like that in the 90s if I recall correctly.
>>23480647beer decals when
>>23480647bet you're into crummy pokemon creatures
>>23480647Remember to get the cat-piss decals. Those are the best.

>>23480647>>23480666broke ass lizard
>>23480508im 24 and i was committed to painting from my second kit. The only pain is having to go back and clean up bad nub removal from 4 years ago first
>>23480263NAOKI did it better.
>>23480000my dude, you literally cannot project a 2d sheet of foiled paper onto a dome without a slitonly color separation or >>23480056 are viable alternatives to a slit sticker.

>>23480707Why did naoki try to make this look like a chink gundam?
>>23480619>but they are doing a worse job than the color guide followers are being color inaccurate is bad modelingwhat the fuck is this retard talking about
>>23480619>If it's not a longsnap it isn't modeling
>>23480748>>23480743Hol up let him cook
>>23480299Truly mind-boggling specimens enhabit these threads.
>>23480743See >>23480567And >>23480572
>>23480619>Someone who does a custom paint job is fine, but they are doing a worse job than the color guide followers are being color inaccurate is bad modeling. Its fine to do so if you enjoy it, but then you aren't modeling and are instead just making 3D art.I hate to say it, but he's right.
>>23480803>>23480619they hated him because he told the truth
>>23480803I mean i don't think that's what I'm doing but "just making 3D art" sounds fancier and more fun than modeling then
>>23480811you're basically the same as the redditors who blast tranny colors on their wing zeros, or a child scribbling with crayons. they are MODEL kits, you're supposed to do MODELING.
Anyone else enjoy applying watersides? Its cozy, the last step you do to bring your kit to life before you seal it all in with a topcoat
why do we hold contests for customs but not for PROPERBEIT modeling works in this gen
>>23480821Yeah except for the times when I lose the technology and make a mess
>>23480797100% concentrated rivet counter autism that is completely unapplicable to gunpla (and is gay as fuck in the first place)
>>23480555>>23480567>>23480572Speaking of, after a bunch of research and comparing colors of the Ground GM’s armor across a bunch of screenshots, I decides to paint the orange bits USAF Tan. At least it’s not traffic cone orange anymore.
>>23480822i know this was supposed to be ironic but you just had a great idea.
rivet counters are based and having an accurate depiction of your subject is what modelling is all about
>>23480827What, the tweasers?
>>23480834that zaku i looks amazing
>>23480834It's weird how orange it is out of the box. It's supposed to be somewhere between burnt orange and red but they decided to go with hi vis. Even in the book it's not that orange.
>>23480838nah one time I was just completely out of touch and applied too much pressure when getting the water out, was too forceful with the tweezers, let stuff soak for too long, etc
>>23480836>an accurate depiction of your subjectA moot point when the subject is 2D and changes constantly from frame to frame
>>23480835It was semi ironic, I'm curious to see how a longsnap contest would workI mainly want to laugh at how boring it'll be and how confusing choosing a winner will be, but I'd keep an open mind
how well do those plated parts interact with lacquer clear coats. I noticed the silver parts on the zeta ver ka were just like the plated hyaku shiki part. Since they were small and good enough, I figured I could get away with not bothering to strip them as long as they don't react poorly to clear coats. Already threw the runners out so I can't test
>>23480814Sorry grandpa, I'm gonna cover my kits in putty, glue them ass to mouth, or extend their waist by an inch. Not my fault you're a 5.
The fuck is wrong with you people? Why is this thread always on the verge of a meltdown?
>>23480895that’s 4chan in general since 2020-ish
*melees this thread*
>>23480904Umm anon, your laser blade?
>>23480895I'm being contrarian as it keeps the thread on topic instead of this devolving into a Wing or Gq thread.
>>23480908You will have to wait until mid 2026 for steel haze to melee this general with proper laser effects
>>23480619i can smell you through the screen
>>23480895I'll never understand why people care that other people don't mind their plastic toys still looking like plastic toys.
>>23480895a literal tranny frequents this general
>>23480939They want to feel like they are better than the people who do less with their toys than they do. It helps them mentally work off the cost of all the extra tools.People really should just be happy that there are people that are into the same hobby as them. If there weren't people buying a hundred SEED kits per AoZ kit, the AoZ kit would either not be made or would be more expensive as it would have to pay for more of the factory.
>>23480950> If there weren't people buying a hundred SEED kits per AoZ kit, the AoZ kit would either not be made or would be more expensive as it would have to pay for more of the factory.This wasn't the case 20 years ago.
>>2348095720 years ago was 2006. They were buying Seed Destiny kits.
>>23480963Why was bandai able to release tons of UC kits (Mg and HG) alongside them without issue when they were a "smaller" company?
>>23480931AC1 Nineball comes with laser effectsAlso you can just steal some from a gundam lol
>>23480295Normally I'd be excited but it'll all just be Piss Bandai so whatever.
>>23480969Nice. There's also effect parts from toys
>>23480295where the fuck is it Bandai?
>>23480967because the previous kits of those mobile suits were 20 years old, all in one color and also not really that great, and they also weren't reprinting tons of kits that they had made in the last 20 years that are now basically evergreen
>>23481009they have a second factory now thoughbeit

>>23481011they have a museum with a factory stapled onto the side
>>23481011The poop-pokemon-dinosaur factory?
>>23481020has anyone here got one of the poop or pokemons or dinosaurs they make?
LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>23481024Somebody should get one of those dinos for the biomecha build
>>23480946What do you think my odds with her are?
>>23480895i am severely autistic and on disability benefits
>>23481024I've got a pokepla of the fake Pikachu.
>>23481033are you excited for the cause of autism to be revealed in september?
>>23481024I got a Metagross. It's basically an Entry Grade, except even simpler. Took like 10 minutes to put together, but it can actually transform into the flight mode that only gets seen in the 7th movie. I was gonna get a second one to paint in the shiny colors but the hobby store I got it from didn't have any more.
>>23481041i like the puru
>>23480946>aThere's more than one including you
>>23481047LMFAO gottem
>>23481025I hope you like hurting your fingers assembling tight metal parts
>>23476365Would you buy an ekdromoi model kit?
>>23480039post your work. she mentioned her husband does gunpla too but doesn't show it in the videos, i wanna see
>>23481057i do gunpla but just snapshits. that's why she doesn't show it.
>>23480299there's tons of cool older mg that havent been printed in ages though
>>23481039what
>>23481028lmao they're all still in stock on hljplannosaurus more like floposaurus
>>23481063only Turn X
>>23480508>I wish I could go back and properly paint everythingyou can. just disassemble the kits on your shelf...
>>23481071*breaks joints*
>>23480646>They should just give stickers that are premade paint masks at that point.There are some CN/JP companies that make third party precut masking tape sheets like that
>>23480814trve modelers use real world reference photographs to autistically verify every detail of their plasticyou will never be a rivet counteryou will never be ww2 german.gundams are not real military equipment
>>23481073have you tried not being a hamhanded retard? disassembling kits and not breaking them is not hard
>>23481073now that you're a real modeler you should have the skill to repair this
>feel like i should be getting some painting done even tho I'm not in the mood>paint anyway and make retarded mistakes that I wind up needing to strip off so I wind up making negative progress the fumes are getting to me, I need to stop
I want them to make a model kit of that weird wheel thing in victory gundam to put my mobile suits in.
>>23481095I think it'd be the funniest thing ever if Bandai made a kit of that thing but didn't make it P-Bandai, but then made a Zanscare MS to go with it a P-Bandai kit.
>>23481096haha yeah it'd be so funny if they started making a bunch of victory kits even if they were penis bandai, they should totally do that...
>>23481055yes
>>23481057She's shown some of it off in her older videos. She also explained that when they first met, he complained about getting headaches and having eye pain from airbrushing and asked her how she avoided it. Turns out this retard was blasting lacquer into a paint booth without a mask and huffing so much of it he was causing himself genuine pain. Koreans are giant brainlets.
>>23481097If I was John Bandai I'd make a kit of every single MS that's ever been in a show. Even the background recolors from the Build shows.
>>23481103Even the Matador Gundam?
>>23481094i snap a bunch of kits and throw them in a box then paint a few kits at once when i get in a painting mood. works better for me than forcing myself to paint when i don't want to
>>23481106Especially stupid shit like the Matador Gundam.
I want to paint like RAYSTUDIO
>>23481111Remember to have Star Children on loop or else you'll make mustard gas.
>>23481103it's so wild to me that half the shit in Victory has never had a single kit made of it, not even 90's NGs. I completely understand not making kits out of some things like MAs and the Einerad, but why are there so few 90s Zanscare kits?>>23481106It got an MSiA figure, so why not?
>>23481114https://youtu.be/_lOeFQvA-uM
How come the plastic on newer kits is so much more kino than on older kits? The texture is so nice.
>>23481120>why are there so few 90s Zanscare kits?Victory almost killed UC since it caused the interest in the franchise to go down the downward spiral. Tomino also sperged out after knowing the merge between Sunrise and Bandai during the time, caused a sour taste in people's mouth.
>still no line art accurate MG Amatsu Mina
>>23481139Why did victory almost kill UC and cause interest in the franchise to go down the downward spiral?
Do ~2009 MGs have color mixing guides in the manual? I can't find it but I might have missed it since it's all JP
>>23481144Why, are you gonna LoNGsNaP?
>>23481144every retail MG has color mixing guides
>>23481145Please don't type the reddit spongebop caps at me. I am sensitive and they trigger my autism
>>23481136The pigmentation of the colour and the plastic itself is better.
>>23481136That's Bandai's private recipe called Kyouka polystyrene ( KPS ). It has better durability compares to regular PS, but also isn't vulnerable to paint thinner like ABS. They also applied either matte finish or semi gloss finish so your snapshit build can look good even without paint or topcoat.
>>23481144>>23481146Yes, but I think they were 100% text at that time and not the color boxes + text that we have now. The text is also pure Japanese.
>>23481151they have been color boxes + japanese text since the very first master grade
>>23480576yes
>>23481145But he said paint, not just topcoat and panel lines, which is what longsnapping is.
>>23481151>>23481160oh wait I am stupid. it was on the back cover. I kept looking for it in the pages inside.
can the group build be extended to 2026
>>23481165No the update yesterday added "painting the kit the proper colors" to longsnapping. You are thinking of mediumsnapping.
>>23481171>the update yesterday added "painting the kit the proper colors" to longsnappingthat's literally what it always meant anonlongsnapping is when you paint it in such a way that the end result is the same colors a if you had just panel lined + topcoated the bare plastic
This thing actually looks pretty good
>>23476369State of the wip. How's everyone else's coming along?
>>23481165Longsnapping is when you paint it the exact same color so it just looks like bare plastic top coated.
>>23481174Uh, no.
From Polish anime con with love. Overall exhibition had really nicely done models.
>>23481177No that's a recolor which yields completely different results from simply topcoating + panel lining (longsnapping)
>>23481184Recolor implies you have changed the color.
>>23481150There's no varnish on that model.
>>23481184>painting it in the same colors is a recoloranon. . .
>>23481191It also means you are being a bad scale modeler and are just painting toys instead.
>>23481175nicei'm almost donewith the build I want to finish before starting
>>23481195Are you going to start throwing a fit about people not milhousing now?
>>23481201Yes.
>>23481193It is. You will never be able to make it look exactly like the bare plastic. Only blind retards think they look the same.
>>23481213Check out this blue guncannon. My idea was what if guncannon but blue? I think it's a good scale model.
anyone in the know, is kotobukiya actuallyputting out those gale hound guyver kits, or were those for show?
>>23481219They havent cancelled any upcoming releases in a while so it's safe to say these are still happening
>>23481175bug looking coolI still need to go into the city to buy the paints and "other materials" I needmy primed pieces sitting in a box
>>23481218sorry anon, but you have to kill yourself
>>23481225great. i know those bitches are about to be out the ass expensive, but im here for it
>>23481228What am I looking at?
>>23481237a miserable pile of secrets
I dont like the t**pcoat word. from now on you can only say varnish when referring to protective coats of clear paint. Instead topcoat will refer to candy style paintjobs since they need one color on "top" of another. Thank you for your time.All vocabulary changes are in effect below this line:-------------------------------------------------------------
>>23481246shut the fuck up bitch
gonna longsnap myself a filling cheese sandwhich and chase it down with a tall glass of acrylic thinner (tap water)
>>23481143Was waiting for someone else to say it but since no one did, it’s because the show sucked. And yeah, I just talked about a gundam show in the gundam plastic model thread, gonna cry about it?
>>23481192>There's no varnish on that model.There is a matte finish on that Maxter kit, and keep in mind, this is not varnish coat.
>>23481150Huh interesting. So how are you supposed to paint it if it’s not vulnerable to paint thinner?
>>23481246topcoat is a trademarked product of gsi creos. i only say varnish or clear coat
>>23481265Not vulnerable means "doesn't get owned by enamel thinner like ABS does". you paint it normally.
>>23481265It means it doesn't crack if you put on panel liner like Tamiya makes without paint or varnish underneath.
>>23481218why did you shove a thruster vernier into the guncannon's cannon?
>>23481284it's a guncannon high mobility type
>>23481284it's a muzzle loader. a tapered mouth makes it easier to pour in the lasers when it needs to be refilled.
>>23481256Most gunpla has a matte or semi-gloss finish to the plastic. Gloss finishes are rare outside special coating versions.
>>23481341The only regular release that Bandai gave gloss finish to was RG Sinanju, i think. Can't find any other.
>>23481346The HRM releases had a number of gloss parts, their whole thing was a mix of finishes and textures on an OOB model.
>>23481150KPS just looks matte out of the box. I was surprised by this when I snapshitted the gcuck GMGoogIt also has a weird rubbery surface finish that feels like it will decay back into oil like cheap electronics within 5 years tops
>>23476370these tpe parts SUCK to work with. they're resistant to sanding and since some of them are meant to bend with the joints i guess i'm going to have to paint them with latex-based acrylics like vallejo or something because in my experience lacquers will just crack in those situations. they need a lot of masking too
The fuck mj2005gundam is only 24This nigga started doing vids at 11
>>23481150>but also isn't vulnerable to paint thinner like ABS.It's not as vulnerable as ABS but it's still as vulnerable as regular PS. You still have to panel line before assembling otherwise you risk breaks on points where stress or force is applied to a part.
>>23481265multiprimerthis is not applicable to kps though, kps is still ps and lacquer thinners chemically bond to it the same as normal ps
store stocked the o but i don't want to pay that much for it
Finished the rg zeta on my first try. I feel accomplished lol. Weirdly I enjoyed this build.
>>23481465It's shit. You're missing out on nothing and there's a reason it goes years between reprints.
>>23481491i want a 1/100 the o though and i want to scribe/customize it and add more detail
>>23481009>the previous kits of those mobile suits were 20 years oldWhat the hell does that have to do with being able to shit out many good quality models in one year?
>>23481481putting it together is the easy partit's trying to transform it more than once that gets people
>type 100: meh without a shield, but nice after I add a shield from a different MS>delta gundam: pure sex>delta plus: shield is ugly. and why the FUCK doesn't it have front skirts?>delta kai: shield is better, but still no front skirtsWhat's the easiest way to add front skirts to the Delta Kai? Are the Hyaku Shiki's front skirts compatible?
>>23481218>added a shieldbased
>>23481491There’s no bad models, only bad modelers.
>>23481576Zakuaurelius is a bad role model
>>23481576What about the Tristian
>>23481590Who?
>>23481586what makes him bad? He's pretty chill and positive. Yeah I get it, he likes to drop kick and pile driver your orders but he's pretty milque toast
BaldingAurelius has been doing Gunpla reviews for 10 years and he's yet to develop a personality that takes real dedication to the bitanyway Jarvis revive rrobbert184
>>23481237He immediately zoomed in on the smallest scuff imaginable.
>>23481643its red on blue and also in the middle of the picture, not noticing it is impossiblenta
>>23481640nah in his earlier reviews he moaned about completely subjective things and as we know from his contest judging he has shit tasteI much prefer him staying positive and sticking to facts
Talking about random fags who review gunpla isn't gunpla related. Fuck off.
>>23481481The rg zeta looks like a gallon of milk whose lid imploded. Why is the head so low?
>>23481649what have you longsnapped lately
>>23481655Narrative Ver Ka. I didn't enjoy building it.
>>23481640i think he's notable for actually being a modeller who does actual modelling projects, often of kits that aren't bandaibaby snapshit stuff (he has a particular fondness for mak)that said i do find his videos pretty boring and don't watch them, he has a tiny vocabulary and never says much more than "great kit"
i like that he points out more important stuff like seams instead of prattling about the plastic color or bad nub placement like the other ones do. i watch on 2x though because he rambles too much
>>23481652Holy shit lmfao can’t unsee it
>>23481481Boy the stickers look like ass
>>23481586Minimum of 3 dents to your box.
>>23481665I like his old style of saying straight up if the kit is shit its shit.
>>23481682>>23481738honestly i think my disinterest in him is because i'm beyond the point where reviews like this have any relevance for me, i buy a kit and can deal with any imperfections so don't bother looking up anything about even old kits from any company. maybe if i'd have known about him a few years ago i would have appreciated his videos
>>23481750I don't really about what you think about Zak, he's cool and I like to watch his vids.
>>23481750yeah i agree, i just throw these on for noise or if i want a 360/size comparison of the kit for whatever reason
>>23478407Yeah idk why I wrote rx 91 I wasn't thinking lol.
>>23479255a cheap smartphone repair kit from aliexpress also works well
Since you guys are such good modelers give me a way to scratchbuild chains
>>23481767buy jewelry chain from the craft store or spend a day bending lots of tiny hoops from wire
>>23481767there is a 30MM parts set with chains
>>23481767just buy a chainif you really want to scratchbuild one you could make the links out of stock styrene sheet, cut a tiny section out of each to link them together, and lightly heat them in water or very carefully with a heat gun and push the links closed individually
>>23481767styrene sheets like a true modeler, yeah it's gonna take you a trillion hours.
>>23481767Styrene rod tubes are gonna be your friend if you really wanna scratch build it.
>>23481767Roll greenstuff into a tube and as it dries work it into a cross shaped form, then push some divots into it to emulate the linking of chains
How do I become a successful gunpla youtube like Rey Studio. Do I need to whore myself out?
>>23481798Just make like 10 youtube shorts a day and you'll go big
>>23481801But then you fags might watch my shorts so I'm afraid of going big.
>>234817983D modeling + 3D printer + make meme stuff
>>23481798Well first you would need to be a top level modeler, then you pivot to selling rebranded tools and paint.
>>23481798pander to the warhammer audience
>>23481839Warhammer is trending down. A bunch of UK warhammer channels tried gunpla over the last year and a bunch are now doing more gunpla/general model stuff because they finally realize how dogshit gamesworkshop are
>>23481841>now doing more gunpla/general model stuff examples? besides roguehobbies
>>23481839>>23481841warhammer has always been big on making their own bootlega channel on WH bootleg would immediately get strikedgunpla built and painted like warhammer could be big
>>23481841which means there's a big demographic of warhammer fans potentially looking to get into gunpla worth pandering to
>>23481843>>23481845stuff like customizing a gundam to fit into a warhammer army or a gunpla painting tutorial focused on using tools+paints a warhammer painter would already own could be big
make 3D printed 40k parts to slap onto your gunpla, make your zaku resemble a space marine
>>23481100>niggas with literal brain damage can get a Korean wife
>>23481867Just be white theory
>>23481854>ork-looted gundam>they paint it red to make it go fasta>they give it to a weirdboi that needed bioniks
Ever since I had a dream of building and discussing gunpla with my dream gf, I've been depressed as hell.
>>23481914Her husband is Korean, retard.
>>23481979I highly recommend going to in-person events. Went to this last year and there was a surprising amount of women, and I don't just mean as guests some of them actually entered the modeling competition
Gimbals are cool and underused
>>23482077thats why i really dig the gquuux designs

>>23482121that'd be $30 + tax :)
>>23481645>>23481643Oh. I'm colorblind so it checks out.

Are the HGUC Victory/Victory 2 plagued with the same problems as their MG versions with being unable to pose? Or are they better in that regards?
>>23482207There’s no problem with the mgs retard . No bad models, only bad modelers.
>>23482229I have both, they can't bend/rotate their waists due to the transformation mechanisms, and it's not really in a way that is fixable without redoing 50%+ of the kit
The ver Ka is the ugliest rendition of gramps
I'd rather have ver.RAYSTUDIO
Just got my P-Bandai order. Gonna make a custom out of this thing
>buying pbandaiyou're part of the problem
>>23482299Good. Fuck gundamfags and their gundamslop
>>23482319Based
>cries because he didn't preorder/forced to buy from a scalper or a reseller
>>23482121fuck I wanna do something like this for a group build one day
>group buildreddit
I wanna recreate this
>>23482437only weird street shitters like the joker these days
>>23482461Yeah I noticed only people from the south and rural america still like him for some reason. What's up with that?
>>23482437woah, this is cool.
This thing sold out unusually fast.
>>23482461>>23482481I don't shit in the street but society makes me want to.
>>23482497I pee in public whenever I get the chance as a silent protest against women who refuse to sleep with me
>>23482492can't stand these
>Bought a kit from Manda before the restrictions went into place>Chose ASP because I wasn't in a hurry to get it>It has left Sawara yet>Now the restrictions are in place and Manda isn't even offering ASP as an option anymoreAm I screwed? Is that order just going to sit there in a Japanese post office and not move?
>>23482492This is my first time seeing this thing, and I already want one.
>>23481491MG The O raped your dad and killed your mom
>>23481665>he has a tiny vocabulary and never says much more than "great kit"Majority of modern modelkits reached perfection. What else he is supposed to say? He already cracked some tough nuts like Ma.K, none of the modern Bandai or Koto kits make him flinch.
>>23481465Daban
I say motherfuck MG The O, motherfuck MG The O's mother, motherfuck MG The O's daddy, MG The O can eat a dick, MG The O can lick my balls.
>>23482492shes just megumin but blue and a 30+ year old hag could you blame people?
>>23482596>30+ years oldshe doesn't look like a hag let alone older than 14 you pedo.
I dont like the snapsh*tter word. from now on you can only say fagshitter when referring to fags who snapshit.
>>23482642>FagshitterBut but i'm not gay...
snap build = as the creator intended
Snap build + topcoat + panel lines = longsnap
>>23482207They are partsformers, so no, they're fine.
>>23482691Snap build + topcoat + panel lines + detail painting = paintGODingSnap build + topcoat + panel lines + custom paint job = tryharding
>>23482647Post fingernails. There should be a mandatory fingernail check to confirm if posters are gay or not.

>>23482519Yep they’ve suspended shipments to the us. Eventually they’ll start shipping again and when that happens you might have to pay $80 tariff tip. Could be months tho who knows.
