areaseven Posted June 26, 2016 Posted June 26, 2016 (edited) More info on the new HG Build Fighters kits. HGBF 1/144 Beargguy P (Tentative Name) HGBC 1/144 Lightning Back Weapon System Mk-III (Tentative Name) And... a Qan[T] with cat ears? HGBF 1/144 Qan[T] Kai (Tentative Name) Edited June 26, 2016 by areaseven Quote
Hikuro Posted June 26, 2016 Posted June 26, 2016 Finished my custom PG GP01 today after a very long build time. had special made upscaled water slides based on the RG build. in scale with RG, MG and then PG. It's probably the most solid build between the 3 versions I own, I dislike the RG immensely being so floppy and gap ridden, the MG is fine but required so much paint work. The PG was just right for me with lots of nice inner details and sharp lines. Quote
anime52k8 Posted June 26, 2016 Posted June 26, 2016 And... a Qan[T] with cat ears? HGBF 1/144 Qan[T] Kai (Tentative Name) Ok, now I'm interested. Quote
areaseven Posted June 28, 2016 Posted June 28, 2016 Now what do we have here? P-Bandai Exclusive: MG 1/100 Impulse Gundam Blanche Quote
Big s Posted June 30, 2016 Posted June 30, 2016 I was checking out reviews on those hguc exclusive kits for the guncannon, gundam, and gouf revives and it said the markings are waterslides so now I gotta get em. I was gonna pass em up due to my hatred for stickers and assumed that's what they were based on the other hguc kits, but I sure hope this is a trend that will go on with the rest of the line from now on exclusive or not.

David Hingtgen Posted June 30, 2016 Posted June 30, 2016 Forget that, what's the Skywarp-colored one in the background? Quote
mikeszekely Posted June 30, 2016 Posted June 30, 2016 Forget that, what's the Skywarp-colored one in the background? MBF-P0X Gundam Astray Noir. Quote
areaseven Posted July 1, 2016 Posted July 1, 2016 Sold! HG Gundam The Origin MSD Series 1/144 RX-78-01[N] Gundam Local Type Quote
renegadeleader1 Posted July 1, 2016 Posted July 1, 2016 Man I hope we get a RGM-79A out of that RX-78-01[N] kit. Knowing my luck it will be a P-Bandai exclusive. Quote
Big s Posted July 1, 2016 Posted July 1, 2016 The ankle armor confuses me on that one. Up until I think the mid nineties the ankle armor was attached to the lower leg, then almost every Gundam since has had it connected to the foot. It feels a little odd, but I'm still getting on or two. I haven't read or seen origin yet and was wondering about that machine gun. It's the same as the Gouf test type and much bigger than the 08th ms Team version. Did Zeon make it first? Is there a story to this anywhere? Quote
areaseven Posted July 3, 2016 Posted July 3, 2016 For those wondering about the HGUC Gyan Revive's compatibility with the HGBC Valuable Pod, it will work, but it's not 100% compatible. For the shoulder armor, you will need to do the following steps:1. Disassemble the two main halves of each Valuable Pod shoulder armor and turn the inner round parts around so the peg holes will be in the same direction as the beam saber holders.2. Remove the side caps of the Gyan's shoulders.3. Fit the shoulder armor over the shoulders. They will be held only by friction, but it will be a snug fit.Also, as the shoulder armor is in purple, you may want to paint them to match the Gyan.Here are some pics, along with a cheap re-enactment of episode 23 of Gundam Build Fighters.

anubis20 Posted July 3, 2016 Posted July 3, 2016 Finished MG Deathscythe Hell... Not too happy with it but i think it turned out ok Quote
David Hingtgen Posted July 4, 2016 Posted July 4, 2016 I think, for the first time ever, I've lost a piece (a pair, actually). MG Wing Gundam. HLJ doesn't do parts orders any more, and even if they did---it's a "single piece, on 2 duplicate sprues" so it'd cost a decent chunk to get a pair. Has this kit been KO'd? I'd much rather buy a KO to get two parts, than an entire MG kit again. The original, true, TV Wing Gundam. Not Katoki, not OVA, not a revamp. This one: http://hlj.com/product/BAN962352/Gun Quote
Big s Posted July 4, 2016 Posted July 4, 2016 Maybe some one has the kit or even a built kit for cheap Quote
areaseven Posted July 5, 2016 Posted July 5, 2016 Only the katoki variants are KO'd Wrong. Just about every Gunpla kit released over the past decade has been KO'd. You just need to look hard for that certain kit you need for spare parts. Quote
David Hingtgen Posted July 5, 2016 Posted July 5, 2016 Checked EBay and Aliexpress----no KO of that one. Anywhere else to check? Quote
chyll2 Posted July 5, 2016 Posted July 5, 2016 (edited) There are lots of brand out there but I have limited it to a certain brand. Of the two brand (TT hongli and daban) I chose, only saw the katoki or ova versions comes out. There might be KO of it with other brand but it might not be a good copy. Btw David, what part is missing? Edited July 5, 2016 by chyll2 Quote
David Hingtgen Posted July 5, 2016 Posted July 5, 2016 C2. The white part that sits on top of the shoulder armor. Quote
electric indigo Posted July 5, 2016 Posted July 5, 2016 Looks like you could rebuild that part with plastic sheet. Quote
David Hingtgen Posted July 6, 2016 Posted July 6, 2016 Found my parts! They were on the workbench/table. Already checked there two or three times over the last 48 hours, but they somehow avoided detection every time. Yeesh, I spent a decent chunk of the the past two days checking every nook and cranny and box I could think of... Quote
Big s Posted July 6, 2016 Posted July 6, 2016 I'm glad my daughter still lives with me, because she is the worlds best missing piece finder. I've lost parts in carpet almost as small as a pencil tip and somehow she has had a perfect record of location. Glad you found your parts. It really is frustrating especially when they are right in front of you and they just somehow blend in. Quote
Big s Posted July 6, 2016 Posted July 6, 2016 I'm curious to see if a revive Gelgoog will be coming soon after seeing that pic. Quote
mikeszekely Posted July 7, 2016 Posted July 7, 2016 I'm curious to see if a revive Gelgoog will be coming soon after seeing that pic. Or an RG. Quote
dizman Posted July 7, 2016 Posted July 7, 2016 I'm curious to see if a revive Gelgoog will be coming soon after seeing that pic. Or an RG. Heh don't get my hopes up, though I'd say the revive is more likely with all the repaints and slight retools they could do. Quote
areaseven Posted July 7, 2016 Posted July 7, 2016 I'm curious to see if a revive Gelgoog will be coming soon after seeing that pic. Least likely for the standard/Char/Cannon variants, as they came out in 2006-2007 and there's not much to improve on them as their articulation and proportions are pretty much spot-on. On the other hand, the Gelgoog Marine from 0083 hasn't aged well, especially the Cima custom. The Gelgoog Jäger from 0080 may or may not need a Revive treatment, depending on how it looks beside Char's Gelgoog. Quote
areaseven Posted July 7, 2016 Posted July 7, 2016 Gelgoog family shot. The Gelgoog Jäger doesn't look bad, but its head is small compared to the rest of the pack. Still need to to a lot of work on my Gelgoog Marine EFSF custom. The Legend of Hugues Courand. Quote
Big s Posted July 7, 2016 Posted July 7, 2016 Yeah that marine really needs the revive treatment as well as the gm's from 0080 Quote
electric indigo Posted July 7, 2016 Posted July 7, 2016 I think the small head is what makes the Jäger look so cool. Quote
