Bandai HG 00 Raiser Condenser Type - WIP 02

Done snap-fitting the kit. I've already sent my entry to G-SHOT and hopefully win :)
...Or not. The competition served as a much needed motivation to do well with pretty much everything. From carefully cutting each piece from the runners to cleaning the nub marks with precision, all is well and good for a straight build.

Picking where I left off - the GN Condensers in which the 00 Raiser in the movie Awakening of The Trailblazer is equipped instead of GN Drives. Watch the movie if you want to know why :p


Fitting it to the 00 Gundam was solid


Ah yes, my favorite weapon of the Exia / 00 is its arm blade - the GN Sword III


Here's with the effect part attached


Ugliest weapons I've seen in a lead Gundam - 00 SPATULAS!


0 Raiser


 Completely forgot to take WIP photos of its wings so..... 00 Raiser COMPLETE!



That's it. Everything is rock solid except for the shield binders attached to the wings of the 0 Raiser. It's not that bad though since it fits fine. I just wish it would have that "pachink" sound when clipped.

Overall, I really love the design and has been planning to get a hold of its MG. It is one of my favorite designs and has that GUNDAM (Ore wa.....) look and feel to it. This is (for me anyways) a Gundam! Ne, Setsuna?

Review would be postponed since this kit has a few visible nub marks. G-SHOT forbids to apply top coat in the straight build cat so this is still incomplete (for my standards anyways). This will also be my entry in the friendly HG 1/144 build off with my Gundam Fans na Pinoy (GFP) brothers. Will commence painting as soon as I've bought the necessary spray cans. Ran out of primer and white which sucks big time. I hope I can finish everything before new year so I can have a fresh start at 2012! SD Zeta please hold on for a little bit longer >.< 
Oh, and good luck to my fellow GunPla meisters with their builds! I saw a couple of monster mod in the works and I have been enjoying my time looking their WIP's (which obviously diminishes my chances of winning bwahahaha). Have fun everyone!

~Happy holidays

TT Hongli MG 1/100 Exia Ignition Mode - Review

Assembling bootleg kits can be a pain at times but this MG Exia Ignition Mode was a breeze. I was surprised from the fact that 90% went well and the other 10% were minor fixes - from shaving male connectors to gluing parts. I really enjoyed assembling my first Master Grade (I was hoping it was Bandai, my wallet was not cooperating as expected lol). Action! G...Gu...Gundaaaaaam!!!!!!!!!!! GUUUUNDAAAAMU!!! Ore wa........... Ore Wa Gundam-da!! Exia exterminating target............... Graham: Ike, Setsuna! Live and unlock the future! More swords Setsuna? Target exterminated! Joining the bunch :D Pros: Assembling is pretty easy for a bootleg Build is sturdy It came with LEDs! Cons: Joints are too stiff (for my liking, anyways, it made the kit solid though) Swords at his wait does not fit the peg in the hand Exia Repair parts does need half of the non-Repair head. (didn't bother with the transformation) The Exia Ignition Mode is a must have! I'm really g...

RIP Crimson Comet

Photobucket has kidnapped my photos and I'm too lazy to re-upload and update every bit. It's been worthwhile. I'm intending to start a new blog that is more "personal" than just focus on one part of my hobby. Looking at my older posts, I can fairly say I've improved on my toy photography (and English!) in which I am thankful for this space as a medium to share my work. Thank you for reading up to this part! Cheers for 7 years!

Bandai RG RX-78-2 Gundam - Review

The much anticipated (and delayed) review of my RG RX-78-2! I broke the chest piece when I was applying some finishing touches on the kit. Crap it was a nightmare! When the piece snapped into two I couldn't hold back and yelled NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!! That serves another lesson for me. Never EVER force yourself into working with half-assed consciousness. Weeks came by and I was able to get in touch with someone who has a spare RG RX-78-2 kit. Viola, my kit is RESTORED! Onto the review, here's the RX-78-2 in its Real Grade Excitement Embodied glory Ah, the Real Grade. Stressing color separation. The attention given to the details of RG kits is just plain awesome! The different shades of white, red, and blue is fantastic. Showing off some articulation here, kneeling poses are a bit better than the RG Char Zaku. Goes to show that top notch engineering with a mini-skirt design Gundam works! That's Amuro by the way :p Will paint...
