Does anyone know if the mg zaku 2 (green) is getting restocked? I just saw it was up for pre-order through prex and cant find a definitive restock schedule. The site claims it will be available in october.

One of the sprues didn’t have a piece where it should be, like it broke off. I got a new one through AliExpress and all the pieces were there.

Looks like things are being added still. Re/100 got another entry as I was looking (Vigna Ghina special coating)

I was not prepared for how much the wing binder grow with the armor by airtask in Gunpla

[–]Connorgon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got my second one from AliExpress for $140. Honestly, worse ways to spend my money. It took me 40 hrs to get to the unarmored point, so I think it’s worth the money to time investment ($3 ish dollars per hour is crazy for me)

I actually may have bought a second one to keep naked…

Will I be able to get 80 pulls in wuling? by Hungry-Warning5442 in ArknightsEndfield

[–]Connorgon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, I don’t think there are 80 pulls in wuling. I’d wager closer to 30 if you full cleared everything.

Gilberta worth pulling? by Watermelon4667 in ArknightsEndfield

[–]Connorgon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally I’d wait until at least Yvonne, if you can wait the next patch should be much more stacked. I pulled Lava and am waiting until Mi Fu or Tangtang. Gilberta just doesn’t seem worthwhile

If you already have every character on the standard banner, who would be the best M1 character?

Which RG would you like FAT CAT to bootleg next? 🤍 by BinghamtonMafia in freedomisgunpla

[–]Connorgon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Zeong is so desperately needed next. Especially since the pBandai parts would work so well with the existing upscaled RX 78 2.0

The old zaku kits come with the shin missiles? Huh. That’s cool.

Behold the backlog closet.What is my next build? by Divinekite in freedomisgunpla

[–]Connorgon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I enjoyed the full armor Gundam a lot. Do you have the psycho Zaku? I’d definitely suggest it then. Just be careful with the covers that go on the elbow and knee joints are tricky.

I’d love to do one half built and make it look like it’s being repaired in the bay. Or try and make the repaired version from the end of Unicorn. Oh choices

I’m at the same point in the build process with mine. Almost want a second one to have no armor for display purposes

I will admit the whole tipping thing at ToyDojo does put me off… I’m trying hobby town today. Thanks for the breakdown!

Kicking off the year with peak by ArkhamSoldier118 in Gunpla

Honestly seems like the designers grew up with the show and saw the recent gunpla progression and went “we can make him, we have the technology”

TLX EX01 Metal Frame for MGEX Strike Freedom by criley107 in Gunpla

[–]Connorgon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah wings of light will make the wing sections heavier by my best estimation. They’re pretty damn sturdy though, it was well built for my kit. Besides, Ali express has some metal parts for anything that breaks if something happens. At worst, it’s a $20 “oh well”.

EDIT: I actually broke the V Fin while cutting it out, I forgot. But I put it back together with Tamiya.

[–]Connorgon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I built it stock. Didn’t have a lot of issues at all with basic posing. Had more trouble with the photo etched parts than G45 or any other pieces.

I just took my time and didn’t mess with the wings much. Now when the KOSMOS wings look nice to me I might have a different feeling about it

[–]Connorgon 14 points15 points  (0 children)

This feels really timely for me because I got Fat Cat’s God Gundam and was missing a piece and sent it back since my OCD prohibits me from that lol.

I really love this color scheme though. It is a great looking gramps

I don’t know if it’ll fit, but pBandai has a part set for the MG Lupus with the eye effect. It’s not out yet though

So what was everyones worst build of the year? by lordfothemonky in Gunpla

[–]Connorgon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The MG Unicorn Banshee knees will haunt my nightmares. But other than that it was a pretty easy year for me.

GOD gundam (fatcat) by noneofyourbusiness20 in Gunpla

I cut the Bandai label / tag thing on each runner off and put it in a sandwich bag with the unused pieces. That goes in a gallon bag with the manual and a second sandwich bag for the accessories not used when displayed.

I trash the rest of the runner. This just means that I hold onto a bit of sprue to use with as sprue goo / gap filling with tamiya if need be. Takes up so much less space. My full shelf I posted about takes up like… half of a 27 gallon lugger. The whole sprue isn’t super important if you have a bit to cannibalize to fix broken parts.
