THE CRIMSON COMET

Accustomed to kits, this was a bit of a surprise. Falling in love with the Robot Damashii series is another story though. This stands apart from the collection as my first human figure. Not really mine but my bro's. After seeing and fiddling with the real deal, all my skepticism towards liking a non-mecha figure hit and slapped both of my cheeks hard and red. Revoltech's Vash is a-a-a-awesome! 360 view Ah! Vash - what I remember from my childhood memories. Perfect! Here comes the stampede Cool! Another signature pose that R.Y. was able to pull off! (I wasn't able to pull off the pose entirely lol.) KNIVES!!!!! Wish I had a dio :( Pew pew bratatatataaaa pew pew pew!!! (RX-78-2: Boy careful where you aim at!) Pros: Details are PERFECT Accessories + stand Articulation Cons: Trench coat's joints are a bit soft but manageable The details that was put onto this mast...

The day has come to review my most adored kit! The first time I saw Aile Strike, I just knew its mech design is very special. Having the RG treatment really kicked off the old MG in terms of articulation and detail. Let's have a look at Strike and his cool equipment! Yes! Yes! YES! Aggressive curves, sharp angles, and a mean looking head. Zaft should be afraid. Be very very afraid! Add an aggressive looking booster pack to an already aggressive looking Mobile Suit and you get a masterpiece design! It's so...... AGGRESSIVE! Accessories Reanimating Strike's first action. A punch to a puny Ginn! PG? No. RG! Schneider really bumps up the agility of Strike. My weapon of choice. ...YEAH! O_O Signature pose My favorite shot from my photo session Pew pew pew Sword GET-O! 死ぬ Ore wa Gundam! (Whoops wrong series..) ...

Funky weather delayed my progress yet again. Ran out of top coat when I was about to put the finishing touch on the Aile pack. Worry not! Aile pack assembly was surprisingly easy. Looking at it gave an impression that the pack is complex and assembly will be daunting. Looks can sure be deceiving >:) With that out of the way, all that's left are the stickers! Still awed by the Aile Strike pack's design. .....And we're done! I have lost internet connection for a couple of days. I thought it did good (in the name of GunPla) as boredom gave me the urge to do something. Oh, and PLDT MyDSL customer support hotline sucks. They put customers on hold for more than 30mins! Assembled parts for the pack while waiting lol. And it didn't happen only once, twice, or thrice mind you! Called them at least twice a day for 5 days! /rantover *sigh* Glad I'm back online! Watch out for the review soon. Cheers! Teaser

A great month of GunPla for September! A few hiccups with the progress because of bad weather (had frosting while top coating *bummer*) but hey, I am doing quite well and faster than my previous makes haha! Just a quick overview on what's done: Redid the body because of the awful frosting issue. Still has slight frosting but meh... Back reminds me of AGE 1's (just without the spoiler) Looking sexy now Fucked up the hand connector on the rifle. Hope it could still hold for the photoshoot :( Doesn't this remind you of the Evangelion shield too? BTW, didn't bother getting the waterslide decals. With my current laziness doing so would further slow my "fast" progress. LOL. Besides, the clear stickers are acceptable. Loving the shiny effect of the foil stickers Unit / weapons DONE! Done applying the stickers for the unit and shield too AND already started with the Aile S...
