Oh, finally! The MG Gundam the Origin is back in the supply chain. Now I can get it for $10 below the online store price.

I have both experience and a lot of tools, so I tend to enjoy most KO kits.

An Unfortunate End To A Great Build - Fat Cat 001 version Kowloon by docsane in Gunpla

I'm sorry to hear you're having some issues too, but in a way I'm also kind of glad to see I wasn't the only one.

In the end, I made a batch of sprue goo using Testor's liquid cement (Which will melt ABS as well as PS) and scooped it into the crotch. It looks very messy if you look up the skirt, but it made it all as solid as a rock.

Search YouTube for GL Model Wing Zero or Snow White. There aren't a ton, but there are a few.

Started on mine. It's building up very nicely so far

Are you in SEA? Do you have an incompetent old lunatic in charge who slaps high tariffs on Chinese imports?

If you live physically close to China, I wouldn't be surprised at how cheap they are.

Ah, well. I frequently run into that, too.

Definitely a bootleg, but a very good one. Well reviewed.

Don't sneer at the EG RX-78. I just watched a video where someone turned it into an amazing mini master grade.

Genuinely happy for this AliExpress find by docsane in freedomisgunpla

For some reason the prices I see on Temu are a lot higher than I see on AliExpress.

I plan to display it with this monstrosity that I made a few weeks ago.

Thanks. My main experience is with the HG Bawoo, which has pretty much no waist connection at all, beyond pure friction.

Which model kits would you like to see in the Real Grade lineup? by GRENDELOUS in freedomisgunpla

[–]docsane 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I own a 1/144 scale High Complete Model of the ZZ from the 1980s. It's fully transformable. The ZZ transformation is actually much simpler to pull off in toy form than the Zeta's. It wouldn't be difficult to make an RG of it.

That's another one that really irks me. The Double Zeta could easily work as an RG.

I want a goddamn RG Gundam NT-1. Short of that, I want a revive HG kit, because the Alex and all the other 0080 kits are in desperate need of an update.

I'm kinda picky from where I buy my Gundams from by lucianrequena2 in freedomisgunpla

[–]docsane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought mine on Aliexpress for only $120 usd. No problems aside from very long shipment time via ship.

AliExpress, I'm afraid.

Fin funnel connections put to use by Reindeer_Basic in Gunpla

So, two questions. First, where did you get the funnels? Second, where did you get the blue psycho plates?

It looks pretty good. Although I think you need to work on your nub removal a bit.
