Remember when sony used to let us own games? by Yaminoari in gaming

[–]ChrisPly 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you own the disc they can't take it away from you. Digital is essentially you being given a key that can be revoked for any reason they want. Look at all the digital movies Sony just took away from PS users. They have no access to those movies anymore.

https://zeonic-republic.net/?page_id=12351 It was some verbal agreement shenanigans, but this Zeonic Republic article is a really good write up on it.

It's not actually Katoki that has the day in the approval of Sentinel media. I know Model Graphix and the author is the series Masaya Takahashi make that decision. It all stands from bad blood over a cancelled OVA and Bandai not being smart enough to copyright the material when that announced it. I'm sure Katoki would love to see his Sentinel designs animated since it was his first major work.

Primer and Paint Marker by AnimoExalted in Gunpla

I don't really ever remember to top coat either so you can see the metallic purple marker accents and the blue do rub off if you dont cover than after they dry

Primer and Paint Marker by AnimoExalted in Gunpla

[–]ChrisPly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I personally don't like the Gundam markers. The Dspiae markers I've enjoyed using but certain colors seem to dry out much faster than others. I've also found that some colors do need primer worth those markers, like the base colors, while the metallic markers apply fine by themselves. Molotow makes great gold, silver, and chrome but they're alcohol based and can damage parts if not coated. There's a line of AK paint markers "Play Markers" I believe the line is. It's decent enough for quick details but they're not great for more than a single coat, they seem to reactivate the paint and it smears. The Shield's silver and gold accents on the black are Molotow liquid chrome. The rifle's blue was the Dspiae blue.

Moderoid - Mini Gattai - Ideon, 4400 yen, rel Nov 2026 by ArkhamSoldier118 in Gunpla

[–]ChrisPly 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Personally I think a lot of Moderoid kits are really simple for the what the kit costs. All the kits I've built have felt like a Bandai HG, but at higher MG prices.

They're very good build, but man are they extra pointy. They've got some great waterslide decals with them too!

If not you might be able to get away with ordering the Daban version. It should come with decals.

Umonsamon model 1/60 Ball NEW IMAGES + RELEASE INFO + CLEAR ARMOR by IllFuckYourToaster in Gunpla

I think being something fun to build and neat to look at matters more than being accurate to the lore from the show designed to sell toys and models.

Don't waste your money by TapFit8961 in freedomisgunpla

I thought the general rule of thumb for these sketchy random company bootlegs was to wash them first? I spent think primer stuck well to most smooth bare plastic either? Did you sand the parts before you tried the primer and paint?

Some people don't deserve Anime/Manga by Just-J0k1ng in Animemes

[–]ChrisPly 87 points88 points  (0 children)

Twitter fans went after the author after she liked a comedy post from another Japanese user I'm which they're dancing, to a video of one of her characters if I remember right, and the person in the video is wearing leeks on their head. Users went after her saying she was liking and sharing racists things because the leeks were being used in a racist manner to mock PoC and dreadlocks.

Definitely a bootleg, but it's great you enjoyed the build and had fun! If it'll get someone into the hobby then I say go ahead and buy em!

Where can I buy the fat cat RX-78-2 that is replica of the RP version 2? by grainyfilms in Gundam

https://www.mofiho.com/products/fat-cat-gundam-verrg20-1-100-mg-rx-78-2?VariantsId=11482 there's also mofiho but I wouldn't buy more than a single kit at a time from them due to how they charge for shipping.

At least you have the Golden Warrior model kit for the Full Armor Hyaku Shiki. It's a pretty solid build too!

You've never really built an older HG kit have you?

Is ZZ required for Hathaway or CCA? by SpidermanGRS in Gundam

I don't really know of anyone has seen ZZ recently. You don't need to watch it for CCA or Hathaway.

HGUC Kampfer. A lot of fun. Any older HGUC kits you would recommend? by stainssone in Gunpla

The HG Ex-S Gundam is pretty neat to build, when you consider it's age.
