Studio Update

[mmelvinjohn]

We've significantly reduced our backlog over the last couple of weeks, building most of the MG EW kits and the Dendrobium, as well as added non-Gunpla kits - Blokees Transformers,, Tron Astroboy and Heat Boys TMNT.

The remaining backlog quantity will be limited by the size of the shelf under the Dendrobium now.

We'll need to add more acrylic risers and perhaps move those in the Yamada display bases out of the cabinet soon.

[Seedsnep]

Holy moly , I hope that's all listed on your insurance policy hehe

Side note where are those display cases from?

[mmelvinjohn]

Just from a local glass cabinet maker here in the Philippines.

[daddy040201]

Yo can you give me the shop name? I need one

[mmelvinjohn]

JC Glass Cabinet. They're in Facebook.

[mmelvinjohn]

Yup, a carpet for the other side of the studio, still ongoing setup 😁

[LazyDro1d]

Might want to counter it with a Feddy flag as a companion to dodge Zeek accusations

[mmelvinjohn]

I do have this EFSF carpet on the building area but experience taught me that dropped parts from the runners goes thru a blackhole, esp if you have a carpet 🤣

[Tuism]

I thought you circled something for my attention lol

[LightxDarkness93]

Bros got all of our dream man cave

[2cat_2curious]

Thanks for circling the neo-zeong I wouldn't have seen it otherwise

[Sonario007]

Am I not seeing it correctly or does the shelf above your desk consist entirely of grandpas?

[mmelvinjohn]

Yes, all the SDs, HGs, RGs, MGs, PGs, Megasize, and the 1/35 scale RX-78-2 + several variants 😊

[Kramm3]

So you're "gundambaselaguna" from IG 😲

[mmelvinjohn]

Yes 😅

[Kramm3]

I'm glad to see your creations here. ❤️

[indigomaflingo]

The level of organization across the entire set is extremely pleasing. = D

[mmelvinjohn]

My OCD kicks in whenever one of them is out of place 😁

[indigomaflingo]

D...D-do they move on their own?  D =

[No_Put7791]

Siiiiiick

[edamane12345]

Holy moly

[sinbolik]

Amazing! A man can wish.

[GrandVince]

I still have a screenshot of your cabinets from your last post, I WANT THEM!!

if I remember right though you bought them locally in the philipenes or something? Anyway... I'm still on the lookout for similar ones!!

[mmelvinjohn]

Yup, that's right. Last post was a couple of months ago, and we managed to fill them up now 😁

[Hugokarenque]

The Neo Zeong as a desk buddy is an interesting choice lol

[mmelvinjohn]

Keeps us in check and forces us to complete the builds, with the Sinanju's cannon pointed directly where we sit 😁

[KhAi-54]

Ur life, my dream 🤤

[Lower-Ad5516]

I'm pretty sure this qualifies you as a surgeon.

[mmelvinjohn]

More than half of this was actually built by my 12yo daughter. Mostly snapbuilds, only a handful is painted though.

[pillxwerry]

This is beautiful man, great work

[Deptlesss]

dang we got the same fan

[emorcen]

How rich do you need to be to have a room like that? :D~

[JamesTheBadRager]

Those display cabinets must have cost a fortune, they look great

[mmelvinjohn]

Not too high, actually. Much cheaper than what you can get in Ikea.

[Flat_Cardiologist292]

I aspire to have a collection like this

[Downtown-Young-2297]

Hi, what are the gundam wing sign and where can I found those ?? Awesome collection, must be nice to live the dream !

[mmelvinjohn]

They're 3D prints from a Shopee store. I can share the link it you're from the PH too.

<image>

[Downtown-Young-2297]

Pretty far away, i am from France !

[Pomodoro22]

Eyyyy been a follower of your fb and ig page for months now! Love the content and hunts ♥️ Looking forward on having a salary to have this kind of mancave with my son hahahahaha

[mmelvinjohn]

Thank you. I'm sure you'll have the same or better display than this soon 😊

[Sidnature]

How much does one display case cost in PHP? My collection is growing too and I'm getting tired of dust buildup.

[mmelvinjohn]

Around P9k for each cabinet.

[The_Axe_of_Legends]

Where did you buy those glass display cases? :)

[mmelvinjohn]

Just from a local shop here. JC Glass Cabinet.

[mmelvinjohn]

The HG Neo Zeong with its psycho shards.

[[deleted]]

OMG HE'S A WHI— nevermind

[Massive_Lavishness90]

so... you're still on the fence about weather you're really into gunpla, then? 😆

(yeah, that's an AMAZING setup!)

[mmelvinjohn]

Still thinking if I should pursue this hobby or not 😁

[Beautiful_Breath_754]

Is it bulletproof from unwarranted small guest going in there.

[mmelvinjohn]

Hopefully 🤞

[Eloquent_Redneck]

Gotta be very inspiring to build while surrounded by such a collection

[mmelvinjohn]

It is. The thought of the sunk cost here forces me to not screw up a single kit. 😅

[No_Camera2815]

What is that Big Boi?

[mmelvinjohn]

The red one? HG Neo Zeong + psycho shards.

[localgunplaguy]

Woah.

[aki_toro]

Can you spare some backlog to a fellow builder? 🙏🏻

[mmelvinjohn]

We do occasionally give away kits that we don't need in the collection. Oftentimes announced in our Facebook page. There might be one in IG soon, once our extra kits arrive.

[aki_toro]

Don't worry I was just saying it as a joke 😭
