ChristopherB Posted April 23, 2004 Posted April 23, 2004 Hello, For all of the Gundam fans out there, here are some pictures of G-Systems latest release, and future project for me. It's is a limited edition release, and the detail is amazing. My kit should be on it's way by the end of this week. Looks like it's going to be a pretty large kit, and it has over (300) parts. Definitely one of my favorite designs. More pictures here: 1/100 Xeku-Zwei Sincerely, Christopher Quote
GRAND CANNON Posted April 23, 2004 Posted April 23, 2004 OMG!!! .....and does that say $580 !?!? "Bless You", laddie !!!! "Bless You"! Quote
Mechamaniac Posted April 23, 2004 Posted April 23, 2004 $580 Jeebus, for that kind of cash, it better come with a steak dinner and a blowjob. I appreciate the skill that goes into these kits, but the prices are so far beyond ludicrous for most of them. Quote
GRAND CANNON Posted April 23, 2004 Posted April 23, 2004 That is the funniest thing I've read ALL YEAR!!!! Quote
ChristopherB Posted April 24, 2004 Author Posted April 24, 2004 Yeah, definitely not cheap! I saw it, and knew I couldn't live without it. The question became whether to get (4) Yamato 1/48 valkyries with armor, or (1) Gundam kit. I guess I'm a little bored with VF-1 repaints, so I went for the limited edition Gundam kit. I don't think I'll ever meet anyone else that has one, so that makes it worth something to me. Plus it will definitely make one hell of a conversation piece. Quote
Neova Posted April 24, 2004 Posted April 24, 2004 I saw this thing built. The only other Gundam I actually like next to the huge PG EX-S. If they came out with a Variable SDF-1 as big and as detailed, I would buy one for the same price, resin kit or not. The thing is just plain awesome in sheer detail. Quote
GRAND CANNON Posted April 24, 2004 Posted April 24, 2004 Well, good luck!! If you build it or have it commissioned, please document the step-by-step to statisfy the talentless (i.e. - ME)!!! Quote
Mechamaniac Posted April 24, 2004 Posted April 24, 2004 Well, good luck!!If you build it or have it commissioned, please document the step-by-step to statisfy the talentless (i.e. - ME)!!! And the money AND talentless, AKA ME!! Quote
GreatMoose Posted April 26, 2004 Posted April 26, 2004 My favorite mobile suit, and there's no way I could EVER afford it. Boo hoo. Quote
ChristopherB Posted April 26, 2004 Author Posted April 26, 2004 Yeah, it is a sweet kit, and one of my favorite designs. Just some some good news from my friend Roy, at Mechadream. I especially like his comment, which I put in blue font: Hi Chris,Hope you're having a great weekend. Here is the UPS tracking number for your Xeku kit: 1ZE9E3510340389778 I sent it Saturday but I think UPS doesn't move much until Monday. I think you will be very impressed with the kit. It is much larger and heavier than I expected - they did a beautiful job on this one! Thanks again! Roy I'll post more information once it arrives. Right now the G-System 1/48 RX-78-2 is the next project since the 1/48 GP04G was completed, so I'm not sure when the Xeku-Zwei will come up. Sincerely, Christopher Quote
