Gundam Plamodel Thread IV

buy buy buy! 

[hachi]

Damn, now I want a turntable!

And I finally ordered the RG Gundam Mk II Titans version. Also ordered the HG Gundam Ground Type--didn't know it came out, but came across it while researching the Titans kit. I love the 08th MS Team so I made this impulse buy. Had to use the budget reserved for a book purchase, and saying no to the Bandai Gernsback kit for now. Hopefully I don't find any more interesting kits...

And then I find out about the Ground Type P-Bandai version (Must have ignored it back then or completely missed it)

Unfortunately will have to pass on this.

P-Bandai Quess version inbound?

[dizman]

Something about the head seems off to me on the Jagd Doga. Not sure if the head itself is a tad too big or if the beak is too wide, I'll have to see a few more pictures to be sure.

Seems to me it's a bit too tall. Shoulders also look off, but it could just be the angle. Either way, it still doesn't look bad.

RE/100 Jagd Doga?  YES PLEASE!!!

Agreed, something looks off about BigBird. More pics are needed because at the moment it doesn't look nearly as dynamic and elegant as the HGUC kit.

That might be just because of the dull pose. The overall shape looks more defined than the somewhat soft HGUC. That Monoeye is a tad on the big side, though. 

[kajnrig]

Another angle. The shoulders definitely look small, the head definitely too tall.

[Ryoma]

I can't believe it! After the Jegan we get the Jagd Doga. My dream of having the entire line-up of mobile suits from Char's counterattack is coming true. I do agree though that there are some details to adjust, especially the head.

[captain america]

In fact, I think that the way the arms were posed in the first pic didn't flatter the silhouette. Also, I think the blue shoulder armor tips are too inclined and extend out too far, possibly preventing the yellow shoulder armors from being posed in a more pleasing (wider at the bottom) slope. Even if that turns out to be the case, it would be an easy fix.

Guys what is this gunpla and what show is it from?

[hachi]

Lol how do you embed a tweet on mobile? ^_^;

[Sanity is Optional]

That's one of the recent HGBD (Build Divers) kits, the Grimoire Red Beret. Repainted.

[kajnrig]

Also, you can't embed mobile links. You have to use the regular link, like so:

[hachi]

Thanks guys! That repaint looked really cool and got me curious.

[captain america]

Very cool build-up of the F91 2.0 kit.

 

[Duymon]

A review of the F91 in English, also from a Korean dude

Can't wait for them to be available locally in the US in a month or so.

On a side note, my ADV hazel just shipped from JPN

 

[kajnrig]

For those of you interested in the RG Tallgeese and HG Leo (and I know there are a lot of you).

The HCM-Pro proportion too looks better than the RE one.

I love to have the Red Beret one in Metal Build form. That unit looks cool to have it in that form. Also, it looks like it came out from a Votoms show instead.

Most likely, tho not sure when...and maybe a unicorn CF version too? 

AH! CCA mecha fights... 

 

back to this release tho,

1. the eye slots should be thinner and longer for a more aggressive look

2. the chest hatch looks too large and thick somehow.

The beam rifle on the RE is too large as well; the whole thing is pretty much a mess. This is the most dynamic CCA mecha and they turned it over to Bandai's potty-training division. 

[dragonstar1982]

I don't know, I actually like the design. It has a dynamic obari feel to it.

[Big s]

If we’re going by the line art for CCA, the the mg jegan is the worst offender. The Jagd Doga isn’t the line art either but doesn’t look too bad to me. I’d like to see more poses and then I feel like I could make a better decision.

[Beltane70]

And here I am just being happy that there's finally a 1/100 Jagd Doga model!

"This new 1/100 GM Cannon II is literally just a bunch of ball joints connected to each other."

"Hey, I'm just glad we're getting a GM Cannon II in 1/100 scale at all!"

I jest, of course, but really there's nothing wrong with criticism. No one's taken it too far... yet... O_O

Damnit I got psyched that they were going to release a 1/100 GM Cannon II from 0083.. but then I realized you were talking about that weirdass Guncannon Detector from Unicorn / Zeta :0

[kajnrig]

Oh, no, I was using the GM Cannon as a hypothetical.

[dragonstar1982]

Just finished airbrushing my pg 00 raiser, though I think it'll be a couple of weeks before I can get the decals and markings done.
