Bandai SDX Command Gundam - Review

A lovely gift form my valentine on Valentine's day. Totally unexpected and pity I had nothing to give in return. I owe her a date! Ha! Seeing the box made me very, very, I mean very happy! I had been eyeing for this figure quite some time now. She must've heard me murmur about it a couple of times, in my deep slumber perhaps, seeing its box made my heart jump I literally shrieked like a girl in awe of what was in store for me.

Oooh sniffing the box brought an aroma of love to my sense of smell. From the bottom of my Gundam heart, I thank you!


Savouring the review, God knows when was the last time I included the box in my photography sessions. This one's special so...





Packed with a bunch of accessories. This is definitely worth it!


The set of eyes which are interchangeable unlike in current SD kits where you're forced to choose at least to options for the stickers are a plus


With Rambo's (I call him that sorry) vanilla configuration 360 view


Sorry for the blur :p




With die cast parts in the right places makes this figure solid as an iron. Articulation is amazing too!


Baldy



Full gear


Scope adds badassery level to over 9000!!!!!!!


Heavy Arms who?



Mini tank. That knife = WIN



GYAAAAAAAAAH!!!



Pew bratatata pew pew pew bratatataaaa!!!


RX-78-2 tribute


Nuclear launch detected


Knfie get-o



From long range to melee




Fire in the hole! Catch this BRUNO!


..............


Pew pew pew pew braattatatataaaa!!!!


Again, Heavy Arms who?!








~You can't talk peace and have a gun (RIP FM)


Cool





Pros:
Metal parts
Solid
Articulation
Accessories
Details are crisp and clean
Rare!

Cons:
NONE!

Not sure if the SDX line has stopped its production as the prices are going up in the market. I'm looking for something to pair this baby with as it left me in awe how much an SD can be so enigmatic with its tiny factor. The SDX line is definitely tops! For those who are collecting SD kits would be refreshed and amazed how cramped this figure is. It's packed with gimmicks, accessories, and overloaded with how an SD should be (extra eyes, hands, and comedy). Must get!

PS.
Bawi na lang ako sa date! Salamat! :)

QY SD Shining Gundam - Mini WIP, Assembly Cure and Review

It has been a while since the last time I blogged. Reality bites and I have to focus on the "more important things in life." Work, girlfriend, and of course going outdoors - a much needed "distraction" to regain my appetite for GunPla. In all honesty my interest has gone downhill and the promised TT Hongli MG Sinanju is nothing more of a plan than a work-to-be-done. There will always be the GunPla itch so I picked this teeneeweenee SD that caught my eye. Welcome to the club, Shining Gundam!! To start off, the box. Runners - 5 in total along with the polycaps Issue 01: See the yellow fin attached to the head? Don't force to plug it in. You'll only damage the plastic. Shave off the little opening to fully accommodate the fin. Repeat it on the other side. Issue 02: The usual suspect in QY kits. What I did was shave the male connectors with my hobby knife. Head done! Notice I used the foil stickers. It's not that I was too lazy to paint the eyes, b...

Bandai SD Zeta Karaba Assault - WIP 01

Coming from a competition really fired my GN Drives up! I am now onto my 1st WIP of 2012, SD Zeta! This 2-pack kit was actually bought before I even knew about the GFP competition. But G-SHOT and the 1/144 Challenge came along and the fun and excitement was too hard to pass up! I initially thought of doing Zeta in its accurate colors. Watching Gundam AGE really blew me and I fell in love with white MS's particularly seeing how the G-EXES pawns the UE. Right then and there I decided to try something different, something that I've never tried before (well, sort of). BTW, if you've never encountered the Zeta Karaba Assault it sorta looks like this ~ It is a limited edition color scheme of the MG Zeta V2. The Karaba Assault was piloted by the White Unicorn AKA Amuro Ray. (Photo above is NOT mine. Thank you GundamPH for the reference. Visit his site too. There are a lot of GunPla, mech, and other anime-related cool stuff there to see) Upon straight building this dude, I ...

SH Figuarts Rockman Zero - Review

Human and reploidkind's last hope: His name is ZERO....? Slide! Z-Saber GET Love the translucent piece L'Oréal ambassador Ryuenjin!!! ...is always followed by Hyouretsuzan If you're a Maverick and hears: Hoooooooo- Haaaaaaa- Hoooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!! Zero's fundamental 3-combo SLASH Triple Rod Looks sick! Shield Boomerang Super hero lan.... Ugh.... Buster Shot Pew pew pew Who am I...? Pros: Weapons Sculpt is spot on Cons: Articulation plenty but a bit restrictive compared to newer releases by SHF Rockman Zero builds on a new era from the X series. It brings BACK the fun of what the blue bomber and red slasher should be - the best side scrolling game in which the X7 and X8 failed to deliver. Rockman Zero was the sav...
