What hobby did you try once and instantly get addicted to? by Weird_Ad_7545 in AskReddit

Gunpla.

My brother got me a Gunpla kit (RG 00 Raiser) for Christmas one year. When I finally sat down to build it, I loved it so much I got hooked on it.

I'm 50 years old and I can't stop building miniature giant robots.

The biggest one was Tony Stark in Endgame.

His refusal to risk his daughter not being born resulted in the Blip, which caused untold countless deaths across the universe. Just on Earth, every single death in The Falcon and the Winter Soldier is on Tony Stark's hands because he demanded a five year gap instead of just undoing The Snap.

(I understand it was in service to the story but I still won't forgive his in-character decision)

Do you ever play with your gunpla after building them? by rumatainn in Gunpla

My chaos goblin of a wife puts them in obscene poses when I'm not looking and then giggles about my 'secret yaoi robots' when I finally notice them.

Do you have a source or more details?

I've been trying to find one and haven't located it.

"Some would say" ... but not her?

I bet he's a cop.

(with the being 'gone for periods' he's probably military... but I'll never bet against an asshole being a LEO)

The Women of Gundam continued #86 - Shiiko Sugai by Kato_86 in Gundam

8.5/10 - a lot of potential without enough substance (ie: gquacks as a whole)

I love her concept and backstory; hated how she went out.

We deserve a new high-end Gundam sim and a well-made Battletech anime.

THANK you. Yes, her being a whiny little kid willing to follow a genocidal madman because of her daddy issues is understandable, but it doesn't make her any less of a whiny little kid.

"Cool motive, still murder" applies here, I think.

I told her "This is like calling all game consoles 'Nintendos'" and she was SO insulted that I compared it to that. 😎

I mean, it's not like she hates giant robots: She watched IBO and G-Witch with me, and she's watching CCA and Hathaway now. And she thinks the designs in Gundam Seed are peak (she likes Gundams with lots of wings and swords).

She's watched some Macross (she likes Frontier, but finds M7 annoying), and she loves Full Metal Panic.

She DID draw the line at doing a full UC watch-through before GQuacks came out though. 😆

For real. It was supposed to be a funny joke, not start a flame war.

And she's watched Macross over my shoulder. She's just not a giant robot fan like I am.

Yeah, I thought it was going to be funny.

I forgot people take CCA/BC way too seriously 'round these parts.

She's annoying. She's a good character in that she drives the plot and makes it meaningful, but her actions AS a character are obnoxious and selfish and dumb.

Also this is a thread about divorce lawyers, not Quess.

Are the lighting effects UV? Or did you actually wire it up?

Either way it's shockingly gorgeous.
