Adding the HGAC Wing to this list. I've heard good things about MG Sandrock and Heavyarms too.
There are MGs of the Wing EW, but the rifle for Katoki's Wing is too heavy for the MG to hold up well.
gg infinite or gentai kits. Gundamplanet does some p-bandai stuff a month after all the major sites.

That a custom made Ms Sazabi?
yea, they painted, and printed up overwatch decals. Probably one of my favorite painted builds
Yo, stop disrespecting the Miss just because she jobbed once or twice.
Is it weird that I only buy Wing variations? I mean, they're the coolest, but I can't help but feel the line up lacks flavor now.
There needs to be more Wing zero customs, hopefully they make a sweet one this year.
Miss only appeared for like 5 seconds! And even then it looked entirely different. This is the MG Sazabi Ver.KA recolored with no physical customization.
It can hold it decently in some poses, however it is a very select few.
I got my RG and MG mimicked in poses. Don't get me wrong I love MG Wing Ver Ka/EW but it's just really showing its age and unless you love the design I don't recommend it.
If you want to count HG's then Wing Zero Hono, Wing Zero TV and Wing Gundam TV are all good pick ups as well. Though the best HG Wing is Wing F from Build Fighters.
Not at all.
There are alot of Collectors that do single suits variants.
Like I know many people who collect only Exia or Strike variants.
I washed the original Sazabi from my mind. We sleekness now.
Edit: You just reminded me that I really liked Exia. I'll try and see if there are any good kits for them.
Exia has alot of good kits.
Exia Amazing and the Red Exia from Build Fighters are the best MG variants.
RG Exia is pretty good quality wise and most of the Metal Buils are Exia based so they are all great.
HG's are okay but nothing to amazing. Exia MG original has a really rough time with standing because it has very poor ankles.
Typical Exia load out. Short and long GN swords and beam sabers along with big GN sword II I think is the name. Also GN Shield.
Congratz.Aaaand Heavy Arms Custom preordered. It and Altron are my favorite Wing suits after Tallgeese. Which is funny because I have yet to buy Tallgeese
I feel their limited status is what pushed me to order them.
I will order Prometheus when we eventually get a P Bandai of it but Kai just isnt enough for me lol.
It will be great to see all the movie suits together.
Great! It'll be fun putting one up.
Just be careful or you'll end up with a duckroll special
Ordered a Guncannon Revive and Kimaris Trooper, as well as my first Gundam Markers to do some panel lining for the first time. Any best practices advice for someone who has no idea what he's doing? Trying to do lines in some of the more fine detailed areas like the stuff on the faceplates seems potentially scary.
Have some que tips and rubbing alcohol to clean up and start on the legs.
HGs tend to have minimal lines on the legs and really don't be afraid to screw up. Ya can always do a quick clean and try again
panel then wipe away with your finger. use water/soap/alcohol to remove mess. Don't be afraid to mess up since it is not permanent
I'm on the other side weirdly.
It'seems the teal blue that is the major upgrade and I find the Gatling (mainly for to the connector) to be cheesy as hell lol.

Was trying to stick to two seed episode a day but then the Operation Spit Break episodes happened and I remembered this was such a good arc, especially when Kira miraculously appeared to save the Archangel, would have been even better if only Natarle had also been on board the Archangel at the time.
The microwave array (Cyclops System) was always such a compelling concept even if too much of a weapon of mass destruction. Everyone caught up in it unknowingly.

I've always liked Ground GM, other than the torso color. Kinda surprised it's not a GM Revive, though, but I'll take it.
I use Amazon for all the basic stuff unless I am doing pre-orders or gotta have it now. Then gundam planet
Amazon is definitely cheap and super fast.

Amazon gets new kits later than other stores, but otherwise, they're pretty good. Especially if you already have Prime.
HLJ is a good option if you don't need it right now and plan on ordering a bunch of stuff together. They also tend to have older stock that other stores might not. If you're just buying one or two things at a time, it's probably not worth it.

Thanks guys, appreciate the help! Looking forward to trying it out.

RG Sinanju ordered. Though it sounds like it won't ship until Monday as GundamPlanet is closed from today until then.
EDIT: Huh. This is actually the second non-Gundam Gunpla kit I've ever bought (well, PG Skygrasper aside). First was Graham's custom Flag.

Getting announced in late August could very well be the December kit. I kind of don't se Reborns getting that kind of hype, though I think it'll get a RE/100 soon than later since it's perfect for that line.
Kshatriya or XI seem like the best bets to me. Right now, you can't really make anything out of the silhouette behind that fogged glass so it could be anything.

Started building HG Yonem Kirks Zaku I Sniper. This is the first kit I've seen that requires cement. The chest has these 4 hook/loop pieces that are too small to have pegs or whatnot, so they must be cemented. Guess I'm finally buying some cement!

How does everyone feel about Gundam Thunderbolt?
I didn't like it too much.
I didn't like it too much.
I would buy 2 Kshatriya but I doubt it would be a regular release.

Anime? Best Gundam production since Unicorn, definitely in my upper echelon of series.
Manga? I like the first arc, but it falls off sharply after
The anime is my favourite Gundam project in many, many years. Really only rivaled by Unicorn as far as modern Gundam anime.
Haven't read the manga.

Production values were really good.
Love the lead design. It's the Ultra Magnus of Gundam's
Don't care for story of Manga and didn't watch the anime.
Be mindful about the joint, much more so with the waist. The backpack is quite heavy and reviews are saying the waist is rather weak and a bit loose.
Thanks for the heads up, I'll definitely keep that in mind.
Built one and a half feet tonight. My box also had flyers advertising Extreme Vs. and some of the other arcade games inside(all in Japanese, of course). I haven't gotten those before, but there wasn't a Bluefin sticker on the box so I guess GP imported without the middleman.

Nozomi/Rightstuf will have a panel at Otakon tomorrow. They say "Gundam fans will be happy."
Gonna be at work during it so maybe someone else can find out what they announce.

Sorry for the late reply but thanks for that. I'll probably end up going for Char's Zaku II it's probably one of my favourites.
However, for my next build I've decided to get a new version of the first kit I had back in the early 2000s', which is the Wing Gundam 0 (I've got the Proto 0 version). I actually can't remember the original Wing Gundam, and I've not watched GW since it's original run on Cartoon Network, so I thought the one with the sort of wing pods was Wing Gundam, and Wing Gundam 0 Custom was who it actually is, so feathered one from EW. I forgot that Wing Gundam was the one with the sort of angular wings.
