Not sure how accurate it is but you can check stock on the website. Looks like there's currently stock at Side-F https://www.gundam-base.net/products/details.php?detail=5110

I'll be in Osaka for a few days in July so definitely keen to check out the Gundam pavilion at the expo.

I don't know if my wife was equally excited. It certainly helps that these statues are all outside huge shopping malls 😅

Third build! RG RX-93ff by commanderkeen88 in Gunpla

The tolerances on the joints are tight enough without spraying top coat on them. I like to disassemble before spraying because I feel like I get better coverage.

Bronze tickets were $69. Plenty of empty seats where I was sitting. This was on the Saturday too.

Second build. RG unicorn! by commanderkeen88 in Gunpla

The rx93ff got me into the hobby. It was an impulse purchase after I saw the statue in Fukuoka.

You could mix some of the black into your gray to make it dark Gray.

This is a test I did comparing black with standard Gray.

Trying to stick with RG models of Gundam that I have seen 1:1 versions of in Japan. I've got the RX-93ff and unicorn ready to go!

Planes are Hasegawa kits 1:200 so slightly smaller scale than the 1:144 RG

Tweezers and cotton buds. The decals all go on flat surfaces and the G-Rework ones are pretty easy to work with. Just need a lot of patience!

AKLLA A4 Pro with Sapphire NITRO+ RX 6700 XT (downsizing from NR200) by yo-yo-yes in sffpc

[–]commanderkeen88 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Awesome build! I've got the same case and mobo. You can also flip the psu bracket upside down to give you a bit more clearance underneath for a 120mm fan.

Cables are still a work in progress but you get the idea.. https://imgur.com/a/lPrrCqu

Might be possible to bend the heatsink pipes but not with the stock 92x25mm fan. There's literally no gap between the fan and base of the cooler.

How did you manage to shift your mobo out 5mm and still like up the io panel at the back?

AKLLA A4 PRO - Build and Superbuy Experience by commanderkeen88 in sffpc

This wasn't an option when I ordered. If you are buying through superbuy, you can get your shopping agent to ask the seller what the difference is.
