    yes! during my early building days I use to take the inner frame parts and paint them a gunmetal color for a more realistic frame appearance. I never had any flaking or issues to contend with...just make sure the color you use on those parts are the colors you want. I've grown very accustomed to doing partial assembly to certain areas after snipping them off the trees and giving them a nice even flawless paint job. Can't believe it took 15 years to get it right but once I found the trick when I did the mega grade RX-78-2, everything has been a cake walk for anything I need to paint.

    260 for the figure and shipping, an additional 8 dollar charge from paypal cause I have to put it on a CC, and of course there will be exchange rate deduction too, always seem to get 'em cause I'm buying over seas. I get nailed by HLJ on that ALL the time, and I'm pretty sure I have been from NY as well. I don't even remember what my shipping choice was except it's fedex...so who knows! I might of actually gone all out on the shipping cause it wasn't that much at the time. Damn fedex....can't you cut me a break and we'll do some drug business togehter to cut cost?!

    IGNORE Zeta...again it's the worst of the RG's I think. Transformation is just a b1tcha. There are these little C shaped pins that connect the upper legs intot he hips, if you move it just the slightest at times it'll pop right out and shoot a half mile out of sight, or 10 inches out of sight which ever! I can't tell you how many times I almost cried cause I'd spend 20 minutes looking for a missing pin. The MKII is on my list....actually lemme see here... I have both the green and Char's Zaku...I've already built a green one 2 years ago but I want an army dammit. Another RX-78-2 which I plan to do as an RX-78-3 or 1, hadn't decided. It'll be tough! MKII in both AUEG and TITAN colors and if the price ever goes down 20 bucks I'll maybe get the Amuro custom Zeta Gundam......but it's gotta come down to the 60 dollar range and it'll just stay in it's box unassembled for collectors purposes. I've just finished the old RX-78 G type, stained and weathered and applied into Sander's unit since I already have an EZ-8....I'm not happy with that EZ-8 so I'll probably get another one and stain the crap out of that! Then I'll be buying a Ground type GM and another G type so I can put a GM head on it and call it Karen's suit!

    I don't recall if I ever had issues with the rx782 Rg. I DID have tubing issues with the Zaku. They didn't stay secure most of the time during posing and I learned to deal with that over time. The most problematic RG kit I've had and seems to be this way with ANY of its HG and MG variants is the ZETA Gundam. The transformation is just the crappiest I've ever encountered!

    the RG GP01 is a decent kit. Due to it's small size I had a bit of an issue with the core fighter's construction, not much, just a bit. There are some incredibly tiny pieces to this that were difficult such as putting on the radio antenna, not the V Fin, the radio bleeping antenna it has!

    think I'll pass on this game, it's interesting, but I lose interest real fast in MMO's cause level progression gets to be tidious...in this case, it's a pain in the ass. Also, it's requiring me to have a PS+ account and I have none nor am I interested.
  9. Hikuro
    hoenstly.....this game feels really boring.
  10. Hikuro
    kinda getting into it, but not by much....think I made a horrible mistake in taking on that fallen big guy to soon.

    did a little research with people having trouble with the very slow 10 gig transfer content issue like what I'm having. Good to know I'm not the only one. Suggestions are to enter standby mode and let it do it's thing. So after 24 hours of downloading I've standby on and just gonna sleep it off till morning and see what happens.

    Man, Bandai really pumped out HG Wing, SEED, 00 and AGE kits back in the day....just pump 'em out like Fing baby units, KABOOM! KABOOM! oh look twins KABOO-OOM! I was at the hobby store very far from home and their first few levels on the shelf are either BF HG kits or Wing. Almost walked away with a Thunderbolt FA Gundam which looked pretty neat, but instead I thought "I've never built the Gundam(G) type" and picked that MG up instead and been having a good time with it.
  13. Hikuro
    anyone sitting on the long ass transfer?
  14. Hikuro
    thanks milty.

    They're gonna play down the road from where I work.........but since I've already seen it, I don't think I'll blow the 15 dollar ticket since it's a night show on a weekday. It wasn't even a good movie anyways, real disappointed in it.
  16. Hikuro
    Wait, was that a serious question? Looks okay, I do gotta say I am bummed too that we won't be going back to the original characters....but same was thought with Destiny and looked what happened?
  17. Hikuro
    Good job. I'm waiting on paint to dry on my GM's before I start trashing them up....sooooo I started working on the MG Wing Zero Prototype....hm, not bad, it's coming together nicely at least! But the build is going so fast! I gotta slow 'er down.
  18. Hikuro
    funny cause it comes with the Big Ghinna mobile armor and Im waiting till I have the right kind of paint to detail the cockpit and Ironmask. Thought did cross my mind of just beating the crap out of it since it's not a great build imo. I ended up having a much easier time building my RGM-79SP and did just a smidge of custom paint to it. Mines a MG, but once in a while you get a bad molded part, or parts. I actually just ordered the RG Exia, LOVE Exia...one of my favorite modern designs. PG's were nice and not so expensive back in the day, I've built 2, PG Strike Gundam with Aile Pack and Skygrasper set, then I built the PG Zaku II when Amazon flubbed up big time on the price and had to honor all the orders. I don't mind a few bucks I mean it was I think a 75%+ mistake off!

    finished my F-91....not a big fan of it.
  20. Hikuro
    thought it was okay, not as fun as the 1st, but was okay.
  21. Hikuro
    I'm currently working on a MG F-91 and it's.....lacking. Even using these real touch markers it's not making as much of an affect as I'd of liked. I got a RGM Sniper and Cannon Fodder coming in tomorrow, and Wing Zero Proto on Wed....I'll be keeping myself occupied.
  22. Hikuro
    oooooh....snap.

    with Fansproject announcement and preorder of their Sludge figure due out this august, Planet X has put theirs out for preorder due out October. I'm kind of torn. Fansproject's looks real good, BUT I don't need a robot partner with him, and I don't think he's going to be big enough. Planet X is same size I think from Grimlock, BUT I'm not big on the design. DECISIONS!
  24. Hikuro
    Wow thank god I wasn't the only one who thought this same thing. I was really disappointed by it
  25. Hikuro
    But.....that's how it's always been. Why fix what ain't broken?
