They're here for you!For the unclear, "plamo" is short for "plastic model". "Gunpla" is thus short for "Gundam plastic model". Many different kinds of models are built here, ranging from mecha to planes, cars, musume, you name it! If you're new, you're gonna screw up. Don't worry!

MGEX Astray
>>23578230The MG Zeong looks great and anon did well, but it also makes me thankful for the HG Zeong because I think it looks nice also. Might go all the way and get the Perfect Zeong if I ever get an MG for it, since my only other version for that is the dinky SD.
>>23578236What can they even do to glow up the Astray that the HiRM didn't already do?
I hope it'll be another giant combiner.
>>23578257Okay, now bandai has my attention
>>23578236an inner frame that you actually build! i can see this Astray having artist-respecting proportions (it was supposed to look bulky and muscular) and the red frame emulating human muscle with elaborate articulation

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).

>>23578228Bandai used to defeat lego 2 times and killed Bionicle and Hero factory, the competitors of gunpla decade ago, but how can bandai fall so soon and get mogged by Chinese bootlegs even in Japan while lego doesn't? Bandai's sale fall due to Chinese bootlegs dominating Japanese plamodel market while lego never gets mogged by bootlegs.When bandai mogged lego twice, but bandai's sale falls due to Chinese bootlegs being black ships, while lego's sale rise.Lego never does anti consumer habits like shitty QC, controlling stock to cause stock crisis, making disastrous kit like shitpla for being Westerners being superior. Lego won't get mogged by Chinese bootlegs as no Chinese bootleg lego is superior than actual lego, for Lego has better technology, QC and never looks consumers down so they never gets mogged by Chinese bootlegs, like final warriors.While Japanese plamodel market has been dominated by Chinese bootleg,but lego won't suffer this fate. No way that Chinese bootlegs better than actual lego exists aside from military theme.While Bandai's sale declines so hard due to Japanese modellers hating bandai's plamodels which are for scalpers, not for modellers and wanting more Chinese kits.But Lego won't suffer like this as Lego knows that they must respect customers, so they never suppress stock, never welcome scalpers, never ruin QC, never makes garbages like unko and kkanbu. https://www.amazon.co.jp/gp/bestsellers/hobby/2189366051

>>23578230My Leo-S build that I was unable to post for a long time because some fuckwit in my IP range kept spamming CP on /vg/ and got us banned from uploading filesIt's less a proper build and more a big experiment on candy coats, since I've never done one before. Both the red and gold are clear colors over chrome, with a final flat coat over red. Came out a bit darker than I thought it would, but it looks cool IRL, like anodized aluminium
>>23578288Exia 2.0
>>23578336Good job, Anon. I like what you did with the shadows on the cape.
>>23578288I want it to be the Nu Gundam Mass Production so badly. Just do it Bandai, I don't even care if the designer is the guy who did the RG Nu Gundam kit, make it happen.
>>23578336>>23578339I also absolutely underestimated the sheer volume of paint I needed to do the cape. Took like a quarter of a bottle of wine red, a quarter of super clear and a lot of black enamel to make a wash to slather it all in and create artificial depth
>>23578332we already have MG Stargazer>>23578335hopefully not. I hate freedomslop, but Rising looks kind of unique at least.
>>23578315Yeah. Lego never does anti consumer habits like shitty QC, controlling stock to cause stock crisis, making disastrous kit like shitpla for being Westerners being superior. Lego knows that they must respect customers, so they never suppress stock, never welcome scalpers, never ruin QC, never makes garbages like unko and kkanbu. Lego won't get mogged by Chinese bootlegs as no Chinese bootleg lego is superior than actual lego, for Lego has better technology, QC and never looks consumers down so they never gets mogged by Chinese bootlegs, like final warriors.That's why Westerners are superior than inferior Jap mongrels in Bandai. Bandai must give gundam IP's license to lego or other western toy company. Japs have no right to own gundam IP, and West should own gundam IP just like transformer.
these chink-exclusive Astrays are getting ridiculous!
>>23578344Lego never goes greedy. And they never get outsmarted by Chinese bootlegs. While Bandai gets mogged by Chinese bootlegs and loses sale to Chinese black ship fleets due to they losing their mind after bionicle and hero factory is dead.
>>23578343fuck off with your chinkshit

Stfu snapshitting esl zhang poorfag.
>>23578345Chinks will rather buy Chinese bootlegs. They won't buy inferior Bandai kits as Chink bootlegs are so superior that even Japanese modelers won't buy bandai kits and wants to buy Chinese bootleg instead. Plamodel ranking on Jap amazon ranking is the proof that Chink bootlegs dominate Japanese plamodel market.
>>23578350Just don't be a poorfag, it's not that hard. Most of the posters here make 6 gorillion dollars a year.
Can you anons tell me where I can find a list of every p-bandai kit released so far?
>>23578358The PB website
>>23578354Zhangs won't buy bandai garbages. They will buy superior Chinese bootleg kits. As Chinese bootleg kits are dominating Japanese plamodel market.What is left in Japan now?Anime? Solo leveling was AOTS last year, and China makes them better, TBHX, nezha, legend of Hei and LoTM. Kpop demon hunter is hyping in Japan, more popular than demon slayer, JJK and CSM. Games? China, Korea and France makes them better, Genshin, starrail are national games in Japan, not Jap and westslops like Apex, Valo, splatoon, pokemon, street shitter. And Nintendo switch 2 flopped due to price for hard and softwares, shitty direct, keycard .Comics? Korean makes them better.Entertainment? Korea makes them better.Car? Electricity? Korea and China makes them better.Subculture? BA has 2000 comicket booth.Japan is NOTHING!!
he's gonna be posting this copypasta for the remainder of this general's life huh
RG X announcement tomorrow, r-right?
>>23578363I'm suspecting the problem is that no one actually reports him, expecting that someone else already done it
>>23578365>>23578363See Amazon JP's plamodel ranking. Chinese bootleg black ship fleets are dominating Japanese plamodel market.
>>23578365bold of you to think reporting does anything on /m/ nowadays. whoever replaced the janny that duel got fired does nothing except delete nsfw images

>>23578288>>23578385Isn't that one of the models that got it's data leaked and people were 3D printing?
>>23578310Even though there is absolutely no reason for it, I hope Bandai makes the Mighty Strike Freedom Striker Pack compatible.
>more freedomslopyou rike?
>>23578377>MG HaruteChinks are making a "MG" Harute? When? Is it the final battle version? Does it have the cool sliding face gimmick with 6 eyes?
>>23578391by Iron Toys. there's orange color version too.
>>23578377>>23578380Bandai used to defeat lego 2 times and killed Bionicle and Hero factory, the competitors of gunpla decade ago, but how can bandai fall so soon and get mogged by Chinese bootlegs even in Japan while lego doesn't?

Front on pic rel is Japan, back is China.
>>23578388nah i think it was the Rising
>>23578393>>23578391Lego won't get outsmarted by Chink bootlegs. Lego never makes garbage like Kkanbu and Poop.Lego knows that they must respect customers, so they never suppress stock, never welcome scalpers, never ruin QC, never makes garbages like unko and kkanbu.Is there bootleg lego better than actual lego, aside from military realm lego won't make?
>>23578380>>23578377Is it same bandai with bandai which defeated lego twice by gunpla killing bionicle and hero factory? Why did bandai fall so soon and get mogged by Chinese bootleg easily when bandai used to defeat lego decade ago? Bandai must give gundam's license to lego or other western toy company, just like transformer. How did gunpla last longer than bionicle which was superior than gunpla, in marketting, selling, QC due to lego never getting greedy and anti comsumer?
>MG Mighty Strike Freedome>it's actually the MG proud defenderYou rike /gpg/?
Also new SMP.
>>23578393Nice. I hope chinks don't let me down with this one
>>23578416Yeah. Bandai used to defeat lego twice decade ago, gunpla killing bionicle and hero factory, but how can they fall so soon and get mogged by Chinese bootleg and their sale declines, while lego never get outsmarted by bootleg kits and lego's sale keeps strong? West is superior, Bandai is inferior!! Western toy company like lego never gets greedy. No 殿様商売 in West.

>>23578452I got banned for complaining about Retardrump's tariffs affecting my gunpla prices, pretty sure the janny just hates any political discussion at all
>>23578423Why do you cry about Lego in every fucking thread
he doesnt know that lego stashes hidden shit blocks in their sets.
MG Dom done. I like it a lot, especially the very flexible fingers. Now I just need to build MG The O to complete my FAT BOYS trio.This was my first time using water decal... with just water. 3 small decals fell off during final assembly. I guess I actually need to buy that special liquid to make them stick for good. fuck I hate spending money. fuck this hobby.
>>23578415I wonder which sentai team is getting a SMP, I'm looking forward to it.
>>23578486Same. Meanwhile this lego retard gets to shit up every single thread for weeks.
>>23578505Seriously why is it always Sentai? The last good SMP we got was the Blue Knight Berserga set
>>23578498lego isn't better or worse than bandai, they're just awful in different ways. right now they have a 480 dollar aquarium set, and if you don't buy it in the first week you don't get an included filter to go in it.
>>23578505Timerobo's due out soon, so maybe a V-Rex set?
>>23578516Because they want the nostalgia money, also it's nice having a sentai robo that can actually pose.>>23578521Oh right, V-Rex is most likely then.
>>23578516SMP Da-Garn is also coming out.
>>23578514newfaggot.......................
>>23578518NTA, but Lego is far, far worse. At least with Bandai, for a couple hundred dollars you get one of the most impressive pieces of toy engineering around, like the PGU RX-78-2. For $1000 you get a little slice of the Death Star.
>>23578541you forgot to preorder your exclusive mini tie fighter display for it in advance however (DLC for your $1000 death slice) so you just have an empty spot cus fuck you
>>23578516Because it was originally Sentai mecha line?Honestly i wish it was HG or Figurise Amplified

>>23578230The weapons just don't ever end... 6 Gattling guns and then the FA backpack to go.
>>23578413Does it mount to the MGEX SF? I'd kinda be fine with that.
Should I just prethin the entire bottle of surfacer into a PET bottle or does that make it dry out faster or reduce longevity? Also 1:1 for surfacer:thinner, 1:2 for mr color:thinner and 1:2.5 for gaia:thinner?
>>23578564I would prethin like half of it. But even if it dries out, you can just re-thin it and mix it. Never seen lacquer paint go bad. I have some alclad that's probably older than some of the anons here
>>23578413but spec II is actually different in some places, the shoulders, head, and the railguns are different, but I'm willing to buy it if its just a regular MG, not an MGEX
>>23578415I would like a new Maskman Great Five please, the old Minipla Great Five is seriously need updating
>>23578550Just think. After all of those weapons, you still need to do a full Katoki decal sheet for all of it.
>>23578566thanks guess I'll go with that
>>23578504>special liquid to make them stick for goodYeah it's called clear paint. I will never understand why you guys are willing to spend hours building these kits but are too lazy to paint them. It's insane, it's fucking crazy to me. Snapshitting models is like taking a girl home, taking off your clothes and then going to sleep without even touching her. What the absolute fuck is wrong with you snapshitters?
>>23578580ok virgin
>>23578574Luckily for me, Delphi was slow on shipping them so they are only coming tomorrow! Also for Ver Ka I usually skip the really small red ones that are just triangles.
>>23578580Snapshitting models is the same amazing feeling of waking up next to a soft warm body in the morning? Anyone want to buy my painting supplies as I need to stop painting.

>>23578651Sounds like is time to make a battle-damaged FG
>>23578641I'm content with my panel lining, using good markers instead of color correcting stickers + metallics to highlight, decaling, and topcoating. I feel zero desire to full paint.
>>23578641Your math is off. A good airbrush is easily $100+, you're forgetting the compressor and spray booth and respirator, and paints are usually about $5 a bottle not including the thinners. Plus there's topcoats and primers and the like to consider as well.
>>23578288zaku 4.0
>>23578655It and the other soft tip thing are way too faded for some reason. Pour type's been pretty helpful because sometimes the ones I mentioned can't get into certain cracks.

>>23578681yea but I need moreI need daribalde, pharact, rebuild, schwarzette and taliban in 1/100, all of them.
>>23578681It is actually criminal that they didn't use this to give us Lfrith or Rebuild.
Does anyone here use acrylic markers on their kits? I'm not getting an even coat and the paint isn't sticking to the corners
>>23578686Bandai doesn't believe in serving the customer base anymore. They believe in FOMO.
>>23578686It was a challenge they issued to you to make them yourself.
>>23578688buy 3 more!
>>23578652the truth is, Bandai never release a line of 1/100 for a Gundam show they never fully believe in.Gundam Seed & Destiny had a line of NG 1/100 announced before it started airing, and it got 1/60 releases. Gundam 00 while had lackluster 1/100, still had grunts and 1/60 (exia, the other CB got canceled) releasesAge only got 1/144 and Age 1 1/35, G-Reco got 1/144. even IBO started a new gunpla line Full Mechanics to accomodate the 1/100 series of gunpla for IBOBandai did not have confidence with Witch from Mercury and Gcucks to make 1/100 kits for them, the FM Aerial was just Bandai reacting to a meme viral sensation for Suletta's popularity, thinking it would translate to sales, but they released it in the middle of the season instead of releasing it on day-1 of the anime airing and it flopped, thats why its the only 1/100 from WFM
>>23578712Blame Age for tanking the 1/100 line.
>>23578719if Age tanked the 1/100 line, why did IBO have a 1/100 line
>>23578310>The Shameful She-male SnapshitterOf course he wants SEED slop. SEED has become the new OYW for Bamco, where they'll be stuck for 15-20 years shoving it down everyone's throat until some new people come in and force the company to shift away from it, like they had to do through the UCNEXT0100 initiative.
I give myself all the credit for tanking 1/100sRG next
>>23578712>>23578719>>23578726Wasn't AGE's whole failure that they tried to design a mainline anime around a stupid video game and it didn't translate well and both the game and anime bombed? and that's not even getting int the janky plot
>>23578726Because IBO revived it. Thank IBO for it.
They never announced a ZZ kit for next year? I’m waiting for my beloved Gazowm-n and Gaza-D.
>>23578310>guyyikes bro dont misgender her
>>23578732There have been so, so many failed "we'll make a game and a movie and a tv series and a theme park, and put so much money in that it couldn't possibly fail!" that have then instantly bombed at the very first step.
>>23578733>IBO>seedShould have let it stay dead.
>>23578323>It becomes the most hated MG kit released with a shitty inner frame, easily breakable joints, and armor that pops out of place when slightly nudged.
>>23578732when Bandai and Sunrise announce a new Gundam show, they usually show off the initial 1/144 and 1/100 release way before the anime starts airing. the fact they didnt do it with Age shows they werent confident enough to push it very thoroughly like OO and IBO
>>23578732The director was making a game first and a tie-in anime second, and had zero experience with the latter. Also, purportedly the anime was originally supposed to be like 80 episodes, imagine how much worse it would have ended up give how badly Hino mismanaged everything.
>>23578712>Age only got 1/144There's multiple AGE MG kits. Also you're a major retard.
>Almost 2026>/gpg/ still obbessed with crying about WfMDoes this shit not get boring eventually?
>>23578760You must be mistaken, we have been shitting on AGE
>>23578760I've been railing against Iron Blooded Ovaries for ten years and I have no intention of stopping. It was way worse than Bitch From Turdcury or Hathaway's Trash.>>23578753Age-1 had a 1/100, anon.
>>23578288>Cutting effectSome Red Astray variant or Burai.
>>23578763When was the last time gundam was good in your mind?
>>23578769This year with G-Quuuuuux, gave it a 10/10. Last year Seed Freedom was the best anime movie of all time, only anime other than Keroro Gunsou to get 11/10 from me and Requiem For Vengeance also got a 10/10 from me. Build Divers and part 1 of Re:Rise also got 10/10 from me and before those Narrative Gundam and Thunderbolt season 2. IBO really fucked Gundam's gold standard, previously it's only real embarrassments were 0080 and Turn A (even though CCA was on the same level, lets not pretend like the non-action scenes weren't boring as all hell).
Just picked these up today. Excited to get started, haven't built a gunpla since I was like 11.
>HG Gquuux Dom is the same price as an MG Dom.What the fuck is this? Is the third leg really that costly?
>>23578603>>23578612>>23578614>>23578615>>23578616all me btw
>>23578756>>23578763we're talking about NG/HG 1/100 retards not the MG line
>>23578784It is just inflation. Most of early 2010s MG were as expensive as current year RG and had 3 times the parts.
>>23578755I don't remember there being a game, but the main writer has only done the Professor Layton games for Level 5 and quickly learned that game writing doesn't translate directly to anime.
>>23578338>tfw I started building my MG ExiaDon't do this to me anon...
>>23578805>Bandai never release a line of 1/100 for a Gundam show they never fully believe in.>AGE has 1/100 kits>UH NO I MEAN THE OTHER 1/100 LINELike I said, you're a major retard.
>>23578807Inazuma Eleven was made by Level 5 a game and had a anime series, maybe thats where their confidence of making a game and tv series popular at the same time came from
>>23578812Yeah the only consistency we have with bandai is them being retarded.
>>23578814Yokai Watch and LBX also gave them confident especially the merch
>>23578809It's pretty much confirmed to be a Seed Destiny kit.
>>23578812>Bandai never release a line of 1/100 for a Gundam show they never fully believe in.>line = series of 1/100 kits for the particular show>somehow retard thinks its supposed to be a MG releaseREADING COMPREHENSION MOTHERFUCKER!!! DO YOU HAVE IT?
>>23578688>Does anyone here use acrylic markers on their kits?I hope not.
>>23578822>confidence in a show is releasing bootleg MGsMajor retard.
>>23578825yes, specially considering Bandai/Sunrise produced even 1/100 of enemy kits, way before the anime started airing, shows they have confidence that even enemy kits will sell even at 1/100 scale, specially when the enemy MS kits sell poorly compared to Gundam kits
>>23578712nice fanfiction
>>23578822>READING COMPREHENSIONThis is a SEA general, you shouldn't expect that
>>23578835but enough about things that are not mainline UC
Only troons would like design like rozen zulu.
dijeh and rick dias are for straight whites only
>>23578726I wish these stupid fuckers would actually reprint this one. Fuck man, it's not like the Barb Rex is an unpopular design.
US veteran here, the Zeong is my favorite
>>23578850You partial to the MG or the RG design?
I have a stupid question about clear kits, does it fog over time?
>>23578859Only if I cum on them
>>23578862Why do you know this?
>>23578238I like that every zeong is a different take on it so that there's a reason to own a bunch of them.
>>23578865>HG: it's literally the Zeong>SD: tiny and an affordable Perfect Zeong>MG: the Zeong but with more movable parts>MG Perfect Zeong: a fuck-huge Zeong>RG: detailed/more optionsYou might have to fill me in on the details because I love the Zeong, I'm assuming the monoeye can move for the MG, thought it was a shame that for other kits you'd probably have an eye sticker centered or center-right/center-left and miss out on it being able to look elsewhere
>>23578862I preordered the mgex clear strike freedom. Assuming I wipe the thick massive load, would it be safe from fogging up?
>>23578867for the HG i just put a piece of friction fit plastic under the head armor that you could push around
>>23578867Yeah you can move the eye on the MG. You need to pop the top of the head off to do it though. It's why I couldn't weld the top of the head to the face.
https://x.com/Sranngurenn/status/1978412481094488479
>>23578873Oh fuck, I want one>>23578877Wait, are there MGs that don't have a cover?>the HGs sometimes have a thing you can pop off like for the Dom or Zock, sometimes requiring more work like the Acguy>other kits like the Zaku I or II just have a track thing but then no coverI just assumed for "wow bigger and more detailed" MGs they'd all require some degree of taking off the cover, and being designed to be able to do so rather freely. I mean, it's transparent plastic but you can still see whether or not it's there, isn't a cover nicer?
where's the unkopla reviews?
>>23578889They're shit.
I want a Zeta Gundam that is on 1/144 scale, Which one should I get? I already got the ver.ka so that covers MG.
>>23578900Officer, I can explain!
>>23578894The HG Revive, maybe the 0088 version if you can get ahold of it. The RG is a hand grenade which looks nice but which you really want to buy two of so that you don't have to transform it.
>regular HGUC Rick Dias is retail while the red one that exists for most of the show is p-bandai>HGUC Schuzrum Dias is retailAre there parts that let me downgrade the Schuzrum Dias into the Rick Dias, or is he stuck forever with the megabinders?
>One more day before the big MG reveal.Fucking hell what if its 5 MG's?!
>>23578914I mean, they can easily recolor some older MGs and put them on Pbandai. It is not that far off. There will be 1 new mold and that's it.
>>23578912where do you even plan on getting a schuzrum dias?
can i have non pb new mold hg pls?
>>23578879cute
>>23578919best Bandai-sama can do is a low effort attempt to bring the build fighters hype back (after the metaverse flop) with rehashed old kits with a few new parts.
>YOUR NEW CHINK UNICORN BRO!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UClcmgq3b-4
>>23578919The whole gcucks line came out this year
>>23578914Hope you're looking forward to the Seed Destiny MGs bro.
>>23578928I'm not gay.
>>23578925They can do the funniest thing ever and release the discount version with colored psychoframe and no LED ( Please please do it ).
>>23578930Police Zaku is kino
>>23578930yes you are
>>23578908The HG Revive looks good, thanks anon.
MGEX Unicorn is such a scummy product. Without LED, the psychoframe looks like dogshit, you can coat clear color paint on it without making it 10 times worse and you will have to buy batteries for the LED until either you or the kit itself dies. And it is not like a brand new mold or anything, it is just a 1.6 version of Ver Ka with some engineering changes.
>>23578753iirc Bandai was actually over confident in Age and thought it would sell better than Seed and 00
>>23578932this
>>23578771I hate you.
>>23578938AGE got completely overshadowed by the on going Unicorn during the time. Let's say if Unicorn didn't exist, AGE would do marginally better.
>>23578771top tier bait, i kneel
>>23578936Someone gave me a MG Unicorn Ver Ka., and I am not motivated to even snap it together. I wish I could like the Unicorn. I can maybe get an RG Full Armor and keep it in Unicorn mode.
>>23578917I-is it not available in retail? Can't I just wait for it to restock?
>>23578945If you keep MG Unicorn in Unicorn mode, it would be fine. The problem happens when you transform it, every parts became floppy. Ver OVA is slightly better, but not a total overhaul by any means.
>>23578947yeah, maybe next decade
>>23578943 nah lmaoage was kiddie shit
>>23578938their confidence in age was pushing games and merch, not model kits there were multiple Age-based games with proprietary merch to be used with the game, Age actually had 2 HG lines, one ordinary model kit, and one is like an early EG line for Gundam Age to be used with the arcade machine, not included the prebuilt kits to be used with the arcade gamebut, they were not confident enough that they can push Age series of NG/HG 1/100 kits
>>23578952Funny enough, Age has more bodycount than Unicorn.
>>23578953But they were confident enough to give it two mega size kits?
>>23578950What whyWhy won't they reprint the correct kits
>>23578949There is probably another timeline where the Unicorn only has Unicorn Mode and the OVAs are good, but alas Bandai let Fukui go full retard and the transformation of the Unicorn is meh at best.
My beloved MGs for the Double Bullet and Spallow will NEVER get reprinted.
>>23578956idc about unicornunicorn was overrated slop fanficage was still kiddie garbage
>>23578953Yeah, for AGE they even got Level 5 which was really good at making games for kids, I guess their idea was to bring a new generation of Gunpla.
>>23578958bandai got too much shit to reprint and new kits to prepare to make, also apparently there has been reprints of certain kits but none have made it out of Japan, like G-reco kits that haven't been reprinted since 2017, as they were stocked at Gundam base locations instead.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u_dB4XLKx6wHOLY FUCK this one should be in the OP. 96.3% of this thread would benefit so much from implementing those points.
>>23578964Is this related to the fact that all the stores in my city seem to be having dwindling stock as if they're all waiting for a certain mystery time when their new stock will arrive
>>23578965Everything's already in the OP, no one ever bothers to look
>>23578964Bandai's reprint schedule is retarded in a way that, they reprint a handful of robots over and over again while nectlecting a bunch of others. It is like Russian Roulette, except you manage to shoot the bullet everytime.
>>23578964theyre more focused on FOMO collab bullshit and other retarded gimmicks like cross contrast and recycled color to reprint kits
>>23578965i get better at the hobby by telling anons to thin their paints and brag about the pot of gaianotes i bought 5 months ago and never opened
>>23578971The latest MG reprint poll tells alot. Bandai just doesn't want to reprint.
>>23578974i mean it could also be that MGs just don't sell that well compared to HGs and stuff that requires less of an initial investment
>>23578973>thinning Waste of time. Just crank that psi up to 50.
>>23578981It is much cheaper to reprint from an exisiting mold than to create a new HG mold from scratch.
>>23578879The only reason to build girlpla is to create your own tiny plamo mascot/cheerleader imo.
>>23578965The guide should just be a link to my email so you can send your questions to me, the second best builder in /gpg/
how could i, a gaijin, buy from p-bandai?
>>23578974Which ones were the results?
Tell me what is it that you see.
>>23578993Just go to your country's P-Bandai site.
>>23578997>Tell me what is it that you see.I don't see why a picture of two dudes kissing is relevant?
>>23578994Deep Striker, Perfect Zeong, The O, FAZZ, Turn X

>>23579015:<
>>23578974>Bandai just doesn't want to reprint.They reprinted 39 HGs, 4 RGs, 18 MGs last month and that's just the gunpla reprints, not new releases. They also reprinted various 30MM, 30MS, SD, Pokemon kits and Star Wars kits. What the fuck are you talking about?
>>23578997its a quick scene, but we dont know if its supposed to be that way, or Bandai being a cheap-ass and save a few yen to properly fill the plastic between the gaps
>>23578997a desire to order a dozen of them and make a diorama
>>23578993Make a japanese friend like I did.
>>23579015>Pure blooded Americans ONLYAnon, I...
oh, so they can actually reprint the normal Rick Dias.
>>23579019>we don't knowyeah we do, it's lightened for cost
>>23579013>Meds now.I'm not sharing my collection of Greek twinks
>>23578969The MG Char Zaku II and Z'Gok are reprinted so much that there's probably more of those kits than people living in Japan at this point
>>23578949>>23578959>FukuiThat asshole pretty much destroyed any chance of getting any new late U.C. shows or OAV's outside of the already in production Hathaway movies
>>23579022Who here has a P-Bandai store? thought so.
>>23579018>They reprinted 39 HGs, 4 RGs, 18 MGs last month and that's just the gunpla reprints, not new releases. They repinted like 7 MG kits in September, and they were normieshit they have been reprinting almost annually. Meanwhile people had to piss and shit on them to get Deep Striker reprint. >HG>30MM>DisneywarsI don't give a fuck.
>>23579037>That asshole pretty much destroyed any chance of getting any new late U.CThere was no chances ever since Victory. Atleast Unicorn revitalizes people's interest in post CCA UC.
>>23579041>RE1/100, FM1/100>NONE
>>23579041I see you're one of the endlessly whining MG cucks. They reprinted 18 in August & 24 in July. Nothing is going to make you happy so you should probably just kill yourself.>I don't give a fuck.I know it's tough to get this through your drooling retard mind but the point is that they're reprinting so much gunpla ON TOP of reprinting other lines and new releases. Yet somehow Bandai doesn't want to reprint things?
>>23579031Char Zgok is mostly a popular meme there. Memes can generate strong sales.
>>23579031yeah but they dont reprint Char's Gelgoog that often though also they need to move some PBandai kits to retail. My firm belief is that PBandai should be only for clear color, special coatings, and that, not new molds and shitwe'll never see a reprint of ReGZ
>>23579050>I see you're one of the endlessly whining MG cucks.Stopped reading right there. Suck my cock.
>>23579052>we'll never see a reprint of ReGZthe P bandai variants get reprints all the time
>>23579052My firm belief is that PBandai shouldn't exist. Clear color and special coating is such a waste of resources and one one actually buy them.
>>23579049The RE100 reprints happened at the start of the year.
>>23579056yeah, because of that, we'll never see a retail reprint of ReGZ because there's already a PBandai ReGZ 1.5 Unicorn version, then theres Gundam Base Fukuoka ReGZ 1.5 CCA version. if they reprint the retail ReGZ, its like saying, here's your peasant ReGZ, you second class citizen
>>23579050>Yet somehow Bandai doesn't want to reprint things?If you are a Tomino retard and wants to collect G Reco HGs, goodluck finding Kabakali with a reasonable price in the curreny year.>hey're reprinting so much gunpla ON TOP of reprinting other linesAh yes, because apparently trashes like 30 Minutes and Dinosaurs were not their own doing.
>>23579021>>23579022>>23579015>>23579016>>23579010realistically speaking how fast do chinks make clones of p bandai?
>>23579061people who can't p bandai ARE second class citizens though
>>23579066I always buy on P-Bandai... for Dragonars. I wonder if anyone from 283 Productions is a fan of Showa to early Heisei mecha... In fact, we still don't know what group will sing for the Xabungle Side-R promo in Sunrise Robot Laboratory.
>>23579065i don't know or care, i'd rather just buy from thescalperbay
>peepeepoopoo bandai this and thatboring
because Bandai likes to waste resources to make new model kit lines that go nowhere instead of making things people wantie. SPRUKITS, FGO Petitris (at least Bandai realized that it was retarded and now started doing real 30MS FGO) EG (the initial one in the early 2000s) FGs and more
>>23579061Did Bandai ever reprint Patlabor MGs?
>>23579074SEED's EG line was pretty cool as a means of producing the cheapest shit possible to fully represent a series. I'm sad the GuAIZ was locked to it, but the reality without it would probably just mean there wasn't even a GuAIZ kit at all. I love cheap kits that can be polished up if you really care.
>>23579074Why does Bandai always chose the worst entry of the franchise to make modelkits out of it?
>>23579065it depends, there's a lot of nice Peebs that Chang skip over, they aren't doing a full cloning of the entire P-bandai selection, seems like whatever kits they personally like, and usually it's maybe a few months after.
>>23579065Depends on the need and how popular is the kit. That can take a couple of years to a few months. Usually P-Bandai expansions come out faster, but kits can take a bit.
well there you go europoors, you dont have pbandai, you're a filthy second class peasant
>>23579073the only good bandai kits are on pbandai now. you will never see a retail aura battler, dragonar, heavy metal, or f90 kit again
>Please think about Bandai, they had to print 30MM and Shitpla, too!Kill yourself
>>23579065They're rarely good. I'm working on the shokew right now and this thing actively does not want to be built.
>>23579096i mean the bootleg.
>>23579097yes i realised that immediately after posting
>>23579078no, that was a NGthere was a earlier EG grade that Bandai made before its newer iteration today
>>23579105And yet, it's a First Grade with more monotone colors, probably even cheaper ones. I can't remember if the rest of the 00 Season 2 kits had Non Grades.
>>23578963Could have sworn it was Level 5 who pitched the idea first to Bandai. And if you think of it Age being Game first then anime/merch later kinda make the sitation more sensible. It was peak Level 5 popularity, with Unicorn on horizon they can tried to appeal and looking for new blood
>>23579145Yeah that makes more sense, I remember reading AGE was suppose to be longer, like 2-3 years just like the Inazuma Eleven anime and because they only got 1 year the staff had to cram a lot on only 50 episodes plus a game.
>>23578953Nah, they specifically expected to sell more AGE HGs than 00 and SEED.
>>23578341Might also go for G-First as well.
>>23578230>>23558798Mass production-style Double Fin Nu.V fin's drying atm and I've got that new aftermarket backpack on preorder>>23578288Probably something I won't care for but my wish is for a new Zaku I or >>23578341
Well what do you know? Another Pbandai
>>23578230Making a mg leo from a broken tallgeese head will be annoying
>>23579166>>23579170no one asked for thiswhere is the next retail shitpla?
>>23579176Soon
>>23579166no thanks
Don't you just love the future?
Everyone are gangster until Bandai announces Pbandai Unkosul Days kit
>>23579181Must be very popular with the kids, huh
>>23579160
>>23579183The doodoo feces mr. potato head is a wild success. So it will be.
>>23579178You can paint this one blonde and sell it to FFfags
>>23579186Goofy dumbass robot.
>>23579178What is the sales figures on shitpla anyway? I've seen comments reportedly from Japanese even mocking those things
>>23579178Tifa Unkosoul when?!
>>23579181I've cracked the code. I've figured out just why Bandai is pushing shitpla so hard. It's because they're in the process of being jeeted, and they're trying to make their new replacement population feel at home.
>>23579164cute snap
it's Sturm Dias btw
>>23579166>>23579180>>23579193They're really trying to milk a 12 episode "anime" a OVA in reality where 90% of the possible interesting scenarios were either not shown or just glossed over and forgotten. Of course.
>>23579166Has there ever been a retail release of rx-78-1?
Artpla Ghidorah
>>23579150Maybe it was supposed to be three or two years. Shit hit the fan when they learn they virtually have no time.
>>23579208There is one, the GTO version
>>23579194It's likely some higher up pet project. Sales figures doesn't really matter to Bandai.They are absolutely trooning the fuck out over the possible sales numbers of every Gunpla kit thoughever.
HG
hambrabi gquuuuuux kit huh
>>23579194i already saw pics of shops throwing these crap (heh) at 100 yen bargain bins.

>>23579232I mean, the katana slash in the teaser was super obvious.
>>23579199You joke but I bet this is the actual reason
>>23579232hard pass
>>23579208MG Garmor has a Prototype Gundam that comes with it.
>>23579224What was this guy's unique gimmick again?
>>23579232unfortunate
>>23579232Neat. I love astrays.

>>23579232Holy shit!
>>23579226They don't have the balls.
>>23579232>cue 500 Astray variants and recolors inboundIt's so tiresome.
>Literally just a reskinned MG FAZZ with ZZ headFucking hell Katoki you got so lazy
>>23579245On one hand, 1 million Unicorn variants. On the other, 1 million Astray variants. Which way, western man?
Oh yeah, they did announce AC6 SMP back then
>>23579232is this the same old mold just with a different head and shoulders?
>>23579246>five years of "Why is there no Full Armor ZZ when all the parts for it exist already????!?!?!?!!!!1111">it gets released>whaaah, why is it exactly what we originally asked for?????????!!!!!?!?!?!the entitlement in this thread
>>23579252It looks completely new
>>23579201box says schuzrum so ill call it schuzrum
>>23579248Astray has a cool katana and a great sword. Unicorn has gay Newtype (Fukui) magic. Astray wins.
>>23579246>>23579254the funny copes of people saying>uhhhh maybe there's something new???kek
>>23579232>Its a Seed MG!>Nvm its Astray yet again.FUCK. WE JUST HAD THAT FUCKING STUPID DOG MG AND WE GET ANOTHER ONE?
>>23579251BALTEUS! AAAAAAH!!
>>23579232Asked for an Astray, BUT NOT THAT ASTRAY! Where the fuck is my Gold Frame variant!?
>>23579259The Unicorn dismantles the Astray with a wave of it's hand. Unicorn always wins.
>>23579254>>23579246Look at that gorgeous baby.
>>23579264Fukui, stop posting. Your shitty fanfic sucks.
>>23579252I thought it might have been new parts from the dog frame but that one actually just recycled mostly old parts LMAO
>>23579208no, back in 2014 there was a P-Bandai MG Prototype Gundam based on the 2.0>>23579237That's the Real Type Gundam and Real Type G-Armor. I mean I understand the confusion.The existence of the Real Type is weird. It was originally a miscolored Gundam from a Okawara art for one of the Gundam movies. Bandai, sensing opportunity decided to make a kit of it. Then finally when MSV-R rolled around in the 00's they made some lore about how it was a in-universe color Federation computer simulations used. MSV-R is where the G Armor real type came from and the MG kit originated.
>>23579253I'm not one of those anon. I was hoping for Bandai and Katoki to stop being lazy for once and redesign the fuck out of it. But oh well, it is what it is.
ZZ is a manlet btw
>>23579271>>23579254>>23579246Not sure if I like the chunky boy. I will stick to the Enhanced ZZ for now.
>>23579267>*waves hands*I won.
>>23579271>and redesign the fuck out of it.why?serious question.
>>23579271>12,540Sheesh
>>23579246>>23579254>>23579271So just get FAZZ instead of this piece of shit. It's cooler and cheaper.
>>23579271Any release date for this?
>>23579232>doesn't make a MG of the start of the most successful Gundam movie of all time so far>skips it and makes a MG of a never before seen Astray variant insteadWhat the fuck is Bandai smoking?
>>23579180based anon dabbing on bandai kikes
>>23579226Neat. This and the Dom are the only GQX design I cared about. it's too bad it got wasted in the anime, didn't even transform>>23579232Also looking forward to this. I generally don't care for Seed but am a sucker for AstraysAmatsu Mina when?
>>23579282he had to buy two kits to do that thobandai won

>>23579328have you ever really looked at gunpla boxart before?
>>23579340But it does not appeal to the white man.
>>23579337I already have 2 Mk-III. I'm guessing that this will have some kind of exclusive weapon.
huh, they didn't put this one up on social media
>>23579349That's the HG though isn't it?
>>23579346KOTOBUKIYA! What am I fighting fooooooor?!
>>23579346cute
>>23579350pretty sure it's just the hg but with the bruno gun, neat to see it though
>>23579349doesn't kit of this thing already exist?
>>23579346oh nice, here is hoping for Colonel too.
>>23579355does it? i don't think i've ever seen a kit with the bruno gun before
>>23579354Does the MG and the HG use the same connector? Ideally, some chinaman upscales it because all the resin ones kind of suck.
>>23579354The cloth wrapped barrel is a new mold (and accurate to the original) so that's coolWhole thing might be new since the original was sized for a downscaled Geara Doga backpack specifically made for the Zulu
VAKIT's next release is Neo Geo
>>23579316>>23579319I'm sure Keroro has another mech which is basically notGunbuster. Why didn't Bandai go with that?
>>23579349>HGStill cool and would get it.
>>23579355You probably thinking Geara Zulu Angelo versionI don't think this Gears Doga was ever released
>>23579360in fact, it assuredly is all new. The propellant tanks aren't colour separated and the gun is of different construction.
>>23579365really digging this guy
>>23579364HGs are still fun, they're little guys!
>>23579299this is incredibledon't know why i thought they wouldnt dare
>>23579361God damn the O kondo version?
>>23579363Eh if we are talking about Keroro mech, this one will be the one that in mind.
>>23579232I have never built a MG Astray, I will start with this one.
>>23579365WE COULD HAVE HAD THE MG XI, BUT ASTRAY? SERIOUSLY?
>>23579367Good, because that's all you're getting for the next Hathaway movie. MG XI never ever.
>>23579226I can finally ditch the ugly ass OG Hambrabi
>>23579251Hope this won't be too expensive
>>23579371Kobayashi, just less toyetic
>>23579378lol, lmao evenSMP is retardedly expensive
>>23579375I'm still hoping for some new OCs for the movie like they made some for the Unicorn OVA. Not likely though.
>>23579380Well fuck me
>>23579232>the leaks teased a new MGEX Astray>This one got announced insteadclose enough. RG 2.0 was also on the leaks as the "RGEX", which means Production Nu Gundam Ver Ka SOON!
>>23579378SMP is really fucking expensive man, even HG size stuff costs like 3 MG.
>>23579380What's the difference between SMP & a regular Bandai Spirits release anyway?
>>23579378SMP is expensive as fuck, but you can assured it will be eating space. The AC6 30MM is already huge compares to HG
https://x.com/figsoku_r/status/1978961609889284408?t=rMWdBwW3d-zrsx4zSsQa2A&s=19Now THIS is an Original Aug. Anyone willing to pay this rightfully P-Bandai kit now?
>>23579261according to leaks, Rising and Immortal will get an MG. trust the plan!
>>23579386SMP is mostly P.B and a bunch of times it's sticker hell.
>>23579170>>23579166I own 4 Lightcannons and 2 Red Gundams and I'm still going to buy this.
>>23579384>crosses Lupus Rex when base Lupus was announcedholy copeleak never said anything about MGEX Ashtray either
>>23579389>Rising and ImmortalDid nothing but eat shit in the movie in favor of their upgrades. MGs of them are never happening.
>>23579283if we're lucky, we'll probably even get the Amaterasu with it as p-bandai
>>23579386It was by different branch all together. Instead of Bandai hobby, its the branch that focused on making prize candy and actually closer to the branch that making Kamen Rider toys
>>23579391>>23579401Right but what does this actually mean for the kit itself. How do they compare to the typical HG, RG, MG? Is it basically the same shit under a different name?
>>23579321wait that's Helmweige Reincar's broadsword. why not make a kit of that instead?
>>23579224Always wonder on why they always starts with Sandrock first instead of the more popular ones.Looking forward for the EW Heavyarms in any case.
>>23579405They are giant HGs, simple explanation.
>>23579405Depend on the kit, i say it's closer to RE 1/100. Some with fully transforming gimmick intact like SRX
wao, aren't you excited for the PGU Nu anon?
>>23579405Giant HG, sometimes they're the size of MG if they're a combiner robo, also lots and lots of stickers.
>>23579414Most sites only let you pre-order one, so I ordered on multiple sites.
>>23579416normally, I would say just paint it, but for such spicy price, they offer so little.
>>23579418Just decided to drop a thousand dollars on a couple bandaibabby toys?
>>23579414I think this is that upcoming Chink Nu. V Tiger I think it was called.
>>23579406Because they hate you.
>>23579414Looks like Chingchong shit and too big. And i'm not that big of an UC autist.
>>23579421I mean for sentai it's the only way to get a sentai robo that can actually pose since a lot of them are giant bricks.
>>23579394>leak never said anything about MGEX Ashtray eitherIt did. The Astray revealed today was likely it, but they mistakenly thought it would be a MGEX. The same way they had the RG RX-78 2.0 listed as RGEX. Bandai also showed off a "mystery" MG which is clearly some form of Barbatos, which was also in the leak.
>>23579422We'll see who's laughing when I bring all the females into the Nu Gundam room of my luxury condo (not yet purchased) and have intercourse on the spot.
>>23579414those flaps deployed on the ends of the fin funnels look silly but not really a big deal/can just not deploy themI am in fact very excited, looks incredible overall
>>23579429Isn't it ironic? The suits were practical effect and the stuntman could move, yet the toys always struggle.
>>23579430Wot are the other ones in the leak? I cain’t see because there’s not enough pixels. I recognize seed freedom rising and justice, rg x, and reborns
>>23579430RG X was cancelled to make more room in the production schedule for shitpla.
>>23579430It's pretty crazy how accurate this has been. I'm just waiting on the RG X (30th anniversary next year) and Ingram (probably to promote EZY, again next year).
>>23579429I'd be happy with HG engineering on Sentai robos if it meant they didn't transform.
>>23579438>The suits were practical effect and the stuntman could move>and the stuntman could moveyeah, extremely shittily
Why are they putting ACs into different lines instead of just 30mm?
>>23579438Yeah, it is, the toys are about combining them but still they're giant bricks besides like 2 of them, the fun of the SMP is that you can both combine them and pose them, sadly because of the reliance on stickers those could get damaged so it's better to paint them.
>>23579440Unironically a better use of resources.
>>23579440What's the difference?
UUOOOOHHHHH ToT
>>23579450cute
>>23579439Production Nu Gundam Ver Ka, FM Pharact, HGAD kits (notice the Flag that already got released as p-bandai), then there's RG GaoFighGar and Genesic too.
SMP V-Rex
>>23579349>>23579354I have a Geara Doga with Angelo's bruno gun sitting on my shelf right now and can confirm the backpack and gun sculpt are both 100% new. The antennae looks longer than the standard doga as well
>>23579453Holy crap why is it so accurate? We’ve got like half the things on there already
>>23579430>Bandai also showed off a "mystery" MG which is clearly some form of Barbatos, which was also in the leak.nah the outline is too vague to call it a Barbatos variant over any other IBO Gundamleaks are bullshit sorrythe only standout hit is RG Akatuski which is likely a lucky shot in the darkMG MP Nu is not happeningChina might make a kit out of the MRD though
>>23579453>FM PharactWhere was this listed? The FM in the image is the reborns gundam.>>23579458It came out towards the end of last year
HGAC Sandrock EW (retail apparently)
>>23579453>FM PharactThat's Reborns you retard.
>>23579463If it's getting a CG render then it's 100% retail.
>>23579460>leaks are bullshit sorry>Half the stuff on the list is already out or coming outBrother, they somehow knew the fucking HG GN Flag was coming out. If you were leaking bullshit, why would you pick that out of every other kit?
Thank you Bandai.
>>23579414We can't escape retarded hand design.
>>23579460>the only standout hit is RG Akatuski which is likely a lucky shot in the darkAnd the PGU Nu and the new RG RX-78 and the HG Graham's GN Flag and a new IBO MG, which literally just got announced. Other than that though yeah it has totally been wrong.
>>23579470>Literally a gigantic version of MG's premade hands>Perfect GradeKek
>>23579462probably a bullshit one though leaks always throw some bullshit predictions to create plausible deniability.
>>23579474Those master grade hands were just smaller perfect grade hands
>>23579475lol, you mean "leakers" make up lists of a few easy predictions so they can feign credibility when the kits that everyone knows would come out come out (even when mostly wrong)
>>2357944430MM is mainly for kitbash or mix and match, or in AC line the Assembly. The 30ML team did pointed out the difference between line. the MM, MS, and MF focused on mixed and match, while MP is focused as stand alone. So 30MM could only use the playable AC'sThen there is also where SMP was whole other different branch of company
>>23579475I don't remember this being attached to the original leaks at all. Feels like something someone made to fuck with people. Would be extremely strange for them to go with the Pharact as the next FM WfM kit but I wouldn't complain if they did.
>>23579479Then why did they make HAL and steel haze ortus as robot damashii...
>>23579483Don't try to find explanation behind Bandai's descision.
>>23579349god damnit i just bought another geara doga and the angelo zulu to make one of these
>>23579483It's whole other branch as well, Robot Damashii was action figure by Tamashii Nation. Bandai is actually have 3 different branch company making AC6 merch for different niche. You can bet at least Ortus will be 30MM as well in the future, but i kinda like how they focused on the other enemy or AC set rather than just popularity
>>23579489It's a side-F exclusive so unless you're willing to pay out the ass for a HG, you're fine.
>>23579349looking at the logo at the right, looks like it's going to be a Fukuoka-exclusive like the Psycho Doga and Hobby HiZack
>already put my expectations on the ground for the new MG kit announcement>Bandai somehow manages to find a way to go deeper than that
>>23579430Wait so were getting a 2.0 HG Exia? Also RG X would be interesting
>>23579477I hate that the P-Bandai parts they release for these things are just a look into what they're making in the future. Which means since they haven't released optional parts to make a Rabidly Dog, it's not going to happen anytime soon.
>>23579495I understand how you feel, Dewey.
>>23579468>Brother, they somehow knew the fucking HG GN Flag was coming outsuspiciously none of the mentions of the leaks that I can find on the archive say GN Flag >>23579473>two things people have been clamoring for years and the wrong IBO MGs not very convincing desuif RG X or Ingram are announced I'll believe it
>>23579500>suspiciously none of the mentions of the leaks that I can find on the archive say GN Flag Are you blind or retarded or what? It's in the fucking image.
>>23579500>suspiciously none of the mentions of the leaks that I can find on the archive say GN Flag It's in the image I posted that was released a year ago. Are you having a stroke?
I'm looking through the In Stock list on the P-Bandai store in America and it doesn't seem like they've sold out of anything they've released this year.
>>23579501That's the regular Overflag, retard.
>>23579496Nothing is confirmed but the HG Graham's GN Flag that just came out on P-Bandai had new 00 runners. I wouldn't expect anything until the 20th anniversary of 00 but also it's Bandai so who the fuck knows what they'll do next.
>>23578230Finished building the bootleg shokew. It's worth 15 dollars for sure. All the parts fit together overly tight and paint didn't help. The arms are shoulders are particularly bad. I was worried about just breaking the upper arm part with how much force it took to get on. Runners that aren't orange have a ton of flashing and surface defects but it can be fixed. If it wasn't so much cheaper than a real one from a reseller I would not recommend it in any capacity. Some of the finger parts also will not, under any circumstance, fit into the hand. The trigger finger hands fit but the saber handle ones did not. It also comes with a second rifle.I'm not sure how to feel about them adding color separated pieces for the red on the antenae. The actual plastic colors are spot on despite me painting it in different ones and the orange parts look great off the runner. They also undergated almost all of them. It feels like this was designed with a straight snap build in mind.Also, does anyone have any feedback on the colors? I decided to prime it gray and do red preshading to try and make the color pop a bit more. It'll be matte coated once I decal and panel line it, I think.
>>23579470Didn't know they went back to using fully articulated fingers. Thought they abandoned that with the PGU since the RX-78 was using dogshit swap hands
wow that was a fucking load of literally nothing, don't tell me you retards actually want to buy any of bandai's "reveals"? the only thing worth a damn is the original Hucky kit, nothing else>HURR DURR MU 2.0 ASTR-blow your own fucking head and do this planet a favor
>>23579507like always, leakers always throw a curveball to create plausible deniability. the recently announced and released kits from the leaks were also not 100% guesses (PG Nu, RG 2.0, Akatsuki, etc.), but close enough
>>23579512What about the Unkopla
>>23579507Dude what the fuck are you doing? Do you work for Bandai? Why are you trying so hard to deny this? The image also has the old ass RX-78 design. Do you think that meant they thought the new RG would look like that? Again, why would someone pick the GN Flag out of every kit to leak and then they were also correct. That's way too random of a kit to pick if they were just guessing.
>>23579501>>23579504wrong design + saying more 00 HGs are safe bets when Bandai already made kits for final battle Harute and Zabanya in the last couple yearsanything that makes it more believable or can we just write it off?
>>23579507So the person who made the image accidentally used the art for the Flag Custom I (which already had an HG) instead of the Flag Custom II.
>>23579251 Nice>t. PCA poster who glazes the HCs every thread Someone made a HC 3D print and he's making HC and Ekdromoi later
>>23579232So, it's the Red Frame with a new head and shoulders?No new gimmicks or equipment?
>>23579512the HG Sandrock announcement is nice though. Opens up the possibility of getting all 5 Endless Waltz kits in modern HG form, bonus for HGAC Tallgeese 1,2 and 3
>>23579524>all PBandailollmao
>>23579517>anything that makes it more believableYeah the 4 other kits on the image that have been released or announced. Fuck off.
>>23579430They've made two IBO MGs since this was made and neither of them were the Rex nor the Bael.
>>23579524>more versions of EW designs at different scalesNo one but the troons who watched Wing on Toonami care about this shit. Just get the fucking MGs they were available for years.
>>23579526eh, I'll take it. Not my problem if your country has no means of getting P-bandai kits
>>23579527>make safe bets like PG Nu or new RG Gundam>act high and mighty when they are eventually proven trueKWABdon't get too excited for the MG MP Nu son
>>23579457Would you mind sharing some pics? Im curious to see how it looks compared to the official one
Why do people complain about P-Bandai so much?
>>23579528>>23579304Damn I wonder what this mysterious kit they just showed off is. We're going to need the worlds greatest dectectives.
>>23579536Just by the silhouette I can tell it's not Lupus Rex or Bael.
>>23579536Not the Rex, that's for sure.
>>23579540QUALITY
>>23579536likely the Barbatos 7th from the Urdr Hunt. kinda strange to make it pb though, and also not making an MG Marchosias/Hajiroboshi together with it.
>>23579541WfM mogged IBO in all aspects especially animation
HG Gekiryujin, though from what I heard the HG Choryujin was a partsforming hell.
>>23579546Feels abit uncanny how both shows ended with 2 women having lesbian marriage. Most of these Gundamshitshows just copy each other.
Ghost Mech Coffin ( Commander )
>>23579346now thatis what I fight for
>>23579475as much as I wouldn't be mad at a FM Pharact this is probably bullshit, they would do a FM Ariel Rebuild or FM Calibarn first, I think.>>23579430I definitely wouldn't be mad at RG Patlabor kits either.
when going to Japan, what's a sensible number of gunpla to buy and return with?
>>23579560>>23579565is thing a boss fight in the game?
>>23579558Sexo...
>>23579567Do the world a solid and buy all the shitpla you can afford.
Anyone has any experience with kashishrine? For the longest time gundam artifacts were out of stock everywhere and i finally found a shop that has some AND they do not seem to charge rape shipping prices. Are they legit. not a fan of payment sites that ask for the magic 3 digits at the back of your card.
>>2357956710.
>>23579569Ghost Mech Coffin are like grunts in the game. I hope they will make kit for Red Samurai next.
>>23579567You're probably going to be shocked at gunpla prices in Japan and not buy as much as you think you will. Getting new releases/reprints from big box stores is fine, anything else is being massively marked up. I saw a MG Justice 2.0 for 12,000 yen. It retailed for 4,800. Was cheaper to get it locally back home.
>>23579576I'm from a third world shithole, prices here are already through the roof but I'll keep that in mind thanks
>>23579576>I saw a MG Justice 2.0 for 12,000 yen. It retailed for 4,800. Was cheaper to get it locally back home.How come Takeshis don't kill the Mines at Bandai over this?
>>23579334>Buy a MSF>Buy a HGCE SFTHERE, I GOT IT! WTF is this?
>>23579577I'm from the UK so the pound is very strong against yen right now, it was £1:¥200 at the time. That let me get some kits for cheaper even though they were marked up. If you're looking for kits in Tokyo, just be prepared for insane prices on some kits.
>>23579576What the flip why is it so expensive
>>23579334Am I going crazy or is this literally just the same model as the Hg Strike Freedom? Does it come with the wing effects?
>>23579581No idea. It was in the akihabara Surugaya, which is more expensive in general. I just checked their site and it's currently listed at 8,500. Which is still double the retail price.
>>23579584>Am I going crazy or is this literally just the same model as the Hg Strike Freedom? Does it come with the wing effects?Bro the Spec 2 is literally the Strike Freedom with...slightly different paint? Cagalli just kept it in ORB while Kira went around in Rising Freedom.
>>23579581High demand and artificial scarcity because Bandai makes it so limited. The gunpla and diamond economy is not so different, except Bandai has a monopoly and can create as many (or little) kit as they want
>>23579588Also diamonds can get you laid where gunpla has the opposite effect.
>>23579588kek Bandai is like a cartoon villain due to how evil it is
>>23579576i frequently run over japs complaining at twitter how everything are marked up because gunpla supply is so scarce there due to rampant scalping. and yeah SEED MGs in are expensive as fuck in Japan because of how frequently they go out of stock there.
>>23579592Gunpla gets me laid
>>23579592Gunpla can get you but you need the proper combination of luck and kits. Probably will end up with a menhera or a homo.
>>23579600>>23579601I was talking about women. Women like men with lots of diamonds. Not so much men with lots of plastic toys.
>>23579579That kind of stuff is exactly what P-Bandai should be for. I don't know what are you even complaining about now.
>>23579308I hope they'll make the Huck 30th out of it.
>>23579603>>23579601Times have changed grandpa. They tell me that my plastic robot obsession gives me aura.
>>23579588they spread themselves too thin manufacturing too many toys no one cares about like that shitpla and the upcoming shoepla. potential MG releases get shelved because of them!
>>23579608Anon, they are not real. They are zoomers. They have a brain even more damaged that your lacquered brain....
>>23579608"They" are the voices in your head caused by the microplastics penetrating the blood brain barrier.
>>23578936
>>23579535notice why no one compains about Koto Web Shop exclusives. yeah, it's because they make it retail to regions without the webshop.
>>23579584new gun and shoulders
>>23579613Yeah but they're very fertile.
Is Ecopla weaker than regular gunpla?
>>23579346>this bitch gets made before vile
my disappointment with the MG SEEDslop #471488 was offset by the gq hambrabi
>>23579650Vile is a jobbing piece of shit.
>>23579232New Red Frame? Because the current Seed Freedom Red Frame doesn't look like that.
>>23579648No
>>23579650no. it just makes the gunpla costs higher since recycling plastic is more expensive than using new one
this looks to be like an entirely different tooling from the regular red frame
>>23579651the infuriating thing about the Astray is that it isn't even finalized. Also, why the fuck would they give Lowe yet another variant? Give fucking Gai more.
>>23579648No. They've been using ecopla in reprints for a long time now. If there were issues, they'd be widespread and you would know about it.
>>23579658>>23579657what does even happen in the story, is Lowe just that shit of a pilot and wrecking his Red Frame constantly and they have to keep upgrading/modifying it?
>>23579659not just reprint, new gunplas as well, MG Zeta ver Ka is the first MG that had ecopla used in its first print run
>>23579658who? what? i don't care about SEAdshit
tanned Punimofu oneechan
>>23579630why can't Bandai girlpla look good like this
>>23579673seeing how the new Sister announcements have them wearing spats now, i think there's some outside influence that affects their design.
>>23579672>big tittedcall me back when its they make cunny again
>>23579677You can just buy the flat model and let us enjoy the busty kuudere racoon one.
>>23579164I have that same air purifier. It's very reliable as long as you change the filter.>>23579258Isn't that the mobile suit you see in Unicorn with the fist shields with spikes that takes like a boxing stance? I wanted that tank for my aquarium and have never seen it reprinted.>>23579208I've been obligated to make one for someone out of a 2015~ revive HG because he's a OYW dude and there's never been a retail release.>>23579238I'm fairly certain it was that he was the only overt homo.>>23579509I dig your orange color contrast choice, the red is nice as well. I think perhaps the lighting is a bit dim but if it's accurate the eyes need a bit of gloss to stand out more. Great job turning a cheap bootleg into a nice display piece!
>>23579560>>23579565The games shit but animalistic mecha are underrated
>>23579676>SpatsWhere?Also you know you can just swap the "Spats" with skin colored part
>>23579702not all 30MS parts are interchangeable.
>>23579232>>23578768Noice.
>>23579676Because they're new variants of ones that didn't have spats...retard. It's just variety.
>>23579706Sure, but the thigh part of "Spats" is one that interchangeable.Of course this is also following the type. You cant just put Sestieh thigh into so Lalanel leg.But thatsbeside the point, since i see no spats on these latest 30MS. Even if it has you can easily change it with already available body parts
>>23579713>>23579702cute
>>23579463Holy shit, EW suits in a proper grade. I never thought it'd happen.
>>23579713He's talking about the new variants of the original 3, probably.
>>23579693the unicorn shield boxer is the schuzrum galluss, which is scheduled for a reprint soon i believe
>>23579718Why did they do Sandrock first? I want my Wing EW NOW!
>>23579224This surprises me greatly, bringing Endless Waltz to 1/144 scale is not something I had on my bingo card.>>23579246False, the backpack, double beam rifle and beam sabers are different, plus probably various other small parts for the Enhanced ZZ that the FAZZ kit doesn't come with. And at the least, it's likely that it's going to have new molds for the forearms so that you can detach the wing shields and strap on the armor without having to replace the entire forearm.Bonus points if they also redesign the back of the calves so that it's transformable, because the Enhanced ZZ removes a couple of the connector ports that make the transformation possible.>>23579414I am, I'm just going to wait to see what problems there are with the kit before I commit. The RG RX-78-2 2.0 had the problem with the head vulcans fitting, if something similar happens with the PGU Nu then it's smarter to wait.>>23579524The main thing that irritates me about this is that it means more delay before we get HGAC Aries, Taurus and Virgo. But hey, it might mean HGAC Serpent Custom, which otherwise only exists as old-ass 1998 HG kits.
>>23579729The RG is perfectly fine. It's not even that stylized compared to newer RGs.
>>23579721Nah the guy ignoring the high leg trend that has been a while on 30MS.Even so, based on Rishetta 2.0 the other starter trio 2.0 should have same interchangeability as the 1.0 version, especially the leg
Moderoid Swordfish*mic drop*
>>23579761Damn that's a nice sculpt
>>23579661well, Astray is literally a scrap gundam that has to procure all its parts on a scrapyard.
>>23579736Does the previous Enhanced and FAZZ have the opened missile pod? >>23579254
>>23579766Yes
>>23579762DAMN THAT SCULPT NICE
>>23579569They're like the less common heavy grunt. Like 12 regular ghost mechs and one or two Coffin commander ones with the alien head and HMG.>>23579723Thank you, I'll keep a close eye out for it.
>>23579770nice CLEAN sculpt
>>23579777Oh my orange sculpt!
>>23579779>getting excited over longsculpts
>>23579463Why did they start with the one nobody likes instead of Deathscythe or Heavyarms?
>>23579790I like sandrock. And they even gave it the cool reentry cloak that I used a lot in gundam mobile
>>23579770A fellow rat? In the gunpla thread?
>>23579790The one no one likes is Altron.
>>23579795I like the Altron.
>>23579232>More SEEDshitNot surprised, just disappointed.
>>23579587Different shoulders and skirt. The head crest can open to shoot laser.
>>23579718>Proper grade>literally 5cm tallIs this a compliment or an insult?
walkure squad almost done
Giant RX78-2 from Gcucks. Display only.
>>23579833Who else is fucking hyped?
>>23579833>>23579836if only they did make a kit for it, make it like the mega size kit but even more barebones thus cheaper. I'd buy a couple just for custom kitbashes using that gigantic body as a base.
>>23579838We all know that's not possible in current year. Most of giant HGs like Nightinghale and Psycho MK2 are quite complex.
>>23579762It's REALLY nice
>>23579766FAZZ and Full Armor ZZ Gundam are pretty much the same mold. FAZZ uses regular ZZ's backpack and beam saber, along with its own original head. They will definitely make changes to Enhanced ZZ core body so you can graft FAZZ's armor onto it, but that's still so barebones. There is literally nothing new beside that.
>>23579823didn't realize we still don't have Messer's VF-31
when can I have sex with gunpla
>>23579858
>>23579823all look same
I wanted Bandai to make Full Amrour ZZ not use the same mould as FAZZ to set them up so I can complain instead why they're so different when they're basically just the same suit.
Likewise, I wanted the new Astray to be a reuse of the original mould so I can complain about Bandai being lazy with their new releases.
>>23579858HY2M is a thing
>>23579871>they're basically just the same suit.FAZZ to Full Armor ZZ is what Narrative is to Nu. It is a test dummy.
Tried to post the end of the nightlight project and my new project but we're at the image limit. Is the thread anon here? I don't want to screw it up and prompt people to shit up the thread.
>>23579890One moment.
