For now I just went with the RG Z'Gok and the HG Tryon 3. Don't want too much of a backlog. Might take another look tomorrow.

Also Wubby, what supplies do you recommend from HLJ?

Recently finished watching Zeta Gundam and started ZZ but find the comedy piece of it annoying. What episode should I start on to skip all the lame laughs?

I'm about to order the Freedom v2.0 and Nu Gundam ver. Ka MG kits from HLJ and this reminded me of a problem I've been struggling with: How do you guys get rid of the leftover nubs on the parts? Right now, I use a hobby knife to cut them down as much as possible though this often still leaves a visible mark. Is there a better way?

After removing them with a knife I sand the area but stress/nub marks will always show.
I think the only way to fully remove them is to paint the kit.

Clip, sand, prime, paint.

Thanks for the tips. I've ordered some sandpaper, will let you guys know how it works out.
BTW, do I need a primer if I'm using paint that's the same color (or close to it) as the part itself?

Opinion on that is mixd, though I feel most recommend priming anyway not just to have a consistent base but also easier to paint on and other stuff.

Yeah it just wastes too much time trying to be whacky. I don't know why...I'll never know why, but it just doesn't need to be that long. At least I liked it the second time at least. I guess when you know where the series is headed the whole comedy shtick bothers you less. Makes me wonder how I'll take M7 if I ever watch that again, will, but I have bigger fish to fry currently. I wonder who's more of a bro Gamlin or Judau. Then again Judau did have some Basara tendencies.

^primer also highlight imperfection and fill in light scratches. I personally would never skip primer.

Ive been watching G Gundam and its really good (Sai Saici the best), but wow getting to the Master Asia stuff, the plot is so gripping and intense.
too bad the shuffle alliance have the lamest mobile suits in gundam thus far. I cant imagine what sort of writing there will be to make some of the more epic gundams (Dragon gundam) potentially lose to them, if they go that route

I wish there was a low budget line where they make everything cheap obscure MS. HGUC started out like that, but it moved away from this.

Like if I could get kits for all the G weirdness, random grunts, obscure MSVS, etc.

I'm still surprised they haven't refreshed any of the G Gundam kits. Wouldn't mind an HG Revive Dragon Gundam.

Where the fuck is Gundam Wing!!
Click to expand...
OO Movie is taking over Wing EW role really with being a throw away but popular enough to include it.

Hopefully Wing will make a come back with Glory to SRW 6.

Though I find it funny that Namco choose the one with out Wing to bring here given the strength that fan base still has.

I do too.

Wing mecha tend to be really unique as far as Gundam's go so it's always sad they aren't there.

Still Wing is popular as far as Mecha goes and honestly having ZZ in there and Hilda from Cross Ange has made this the first and only SRW I'll get that lacks my holy trinity.

I have a NG 1/100 Gundam Barbatos on HJL... Should I cancel it and find something else to build or keep it as my first 1/100 scale?
