some boy with that falls into a mech and becomes an ace pilot and that's thirsty for girls.
gets slapped around.

A mans man, the manliest of men.
You and me both know he doesn't just get "slapped around." Women are just as thirsty for him.
The RightStuf site has them for their normal pre-order price. Don't know why that didn't carry over to amazon this time.
I stopped watching Iron Blooded Orphans after around the 15th episode, since I stopped feeling really engaged overall a while back. It was my first Non UC Gundam, but I've gotten the itch for all things Gundam again and decided to give another non UC show a try.
My choice:
And after the first episode I think it was a wise decision. I can see myself really enjoying G Gundam since its so different than the Universal Century.

Stick it on top of your Roomba and it will be like the real thing
So the HG Legilis got back in stock much sooner than I expected and HLJ was like "yo pay for your shiz"
ok I guess I'll do that
but I got some money just last week and this happened

A man, with a man's name
The plan right now is to put it together with my dad and my brother who's a huge Unicorn fanboy, but yeah, I'm expecting it to take months
Brother doesn't actually know I bought this, and I ordered a sheet of decals he wanted that should arrive around the same time. The look on his face is going to be priceless*.

Congrats on the PG Unicorn purchase! That's a hell of a build. One of the most interesting Gundam builds I've done. Just a word of warning, be careful threading the LEDs, particularly in the legs. They are very delicate and easy snap the wires on. I had to resolder one of the wires on mine for one of the leg LED sets since I broke it off. With some patience, you should be fine, but it's certainly the most nerve wracking part of the assembly.
Final product is more than worth it.

Thanks for the heads up! I'll be sure to keep that in mind.
Swore I quoted this but cool that your fam is into gunpla.

So jelly.
Planning to save up for it over the next month or two. Then again, it may be relegated to a Christmas buy depending on what the announced price/release date is for the PS4K/Neo.
Yeah, dad enjoys building models and has watched a couple of the series with us, but my bro is in DEEP.
His Christmas gift for our mother last year was a Bearguy.

Nah, I got it off ebay aaaaages ago. It was part of a megablok limited run with RX-78 and the normal grunt Zaku II.

Lucky. My dad thinks I do good on model kits, but other times considers them a waste of money.
And he also refers to every single one as a "Gundam Wings" model. Every. Damn. One. Take a guess why.
Though slightly unrelated I did get him to watch Steins;Gate and he liked it so maybe there's hope.
Guys I am halfway done with the straight build of the MG V2 and damn is it fucking amazing.
The transformation system is so fun and easy. transforming it into a mobile suit is badass.
only negative so far are of course the arms. The arms are finicky but surprisingly the shoulders are stable.
will post pics in a few of what I am talking about

All of my MEH but maybe some of you will like this.
Goddess damn it.
The only good thing to come from Sentinel. Sometimes I loath P Bandai.

The parade of UC RE/100 continues. I know a bunch of people are eagerly hoping for a Reborns (or a Leo, I guess). I'm still hoping for a Gaia. One day.

I'll never get a Queen Mansa kit.

If they can do an HGUC Psycho Gundam, I'm sure a Queen Mansa will come one day.

I hope youre on team Sai Saici, best BRO.
So far I've only seen the one episode with him as of watching epidsode 9. Hes alright, Of the additional fighters introduced my favourite would be Chibodee Crocket.
JadedWriter
Member
Sai Saici can be a bit annoying, but I like his resolve and his Gundam. He has probably the least racist looking Gundam.
oo nice
Nice haul!
IBO has some really unique mobile suit designs, the one you have there looks more like something out of Armored Core than a Gundam series.
And now, a brief diversion for your viewing pleasure, Tohru Furuya freaking out over Gundam VR.

I really like the Nero, Nouvel GM III, and Refined Barzam from Sentinel. Maybe even the Gundam Mk V depending on how its drawn
Thanks guys; I got the Guncannon snapped together tonight and took my first stab with the markers- I know people generally recommend brown panel lines on red suits, but I liked the look of the black ones on the box, so I went with black on the red and grey on the head- I really don't think pictures do justice to just how much a rough panel lining can add character to a kit; he looks so much more dynamic and really pops in-hand. Gunpla is awesome.
They seem fairly polarizing, but I really dig a lot of the IBO designs, and they certainly stand out next to more traditional UC and UC-inspired suits; I really love the Kimaris Trooper's weird looking helmet face and dumb fold-out centaur legs- I'm gonna have a good time panel lining it for sure.

So much for saving for other things. Ah well, cheaper than Rightstuf at least.
first time watching? think I might rewatch this. war in the pocket is making me want to watch more old school stuff
the HG line of U.C kits are pretty damn great, almost bought the mg version

Not the first time. Saw the Toonami run and also got the Bandai Anime Legends DVD sets. But I admit to not having seen it in 4-5 years.
Edit: Obviously Build Fighters but dunno if it's from the upcoming OVA or the manga or what.
All I know is I want a kit of this Delta/Stargazer thing.
Nero isn't to bad. GMIII is okay just a major downgrade from Powered GM to me.
