It's an 80's action movie rolled into one gundam without any of the style. I don't even like the coloration of it. It's "gun guns guns" the weapons load out is boring and lacks imagination to me.
I almost bought Full Vern, but I hate the shoulders and back pack I decided normal form over Upgrade this time.
Yeah but

i think you mentioned you don't use the decals to keep anime look, are you going to panel line or just do a dirty build since you got 4 kits to burn through
and i'd like to see the crossbone =)

I've got a Dom Tropen Sand Brown coming soon-ish.
That's about it.
That's about it.
Yep that is my usual (no decal) but I do panel line, to me it helps keep that anime look.
Usually I'd do all four but I hate panel lines on the Pearl Coatong that Cross Bones and Wing Zero Specials share so I'll skip that one.
My MGs will be Lined, and I'm considering GP01 but as I've only built the legs I haven't decided as of yet.
I am working on 6 MG kits but going from the easiest so I am half way done with my Heero Wing zero then Amazing red warrior
edit-yes I am doing full decals, stickers, and panel lining.
MG Quabley- guys I opened the box to this and the parts look amazing. With very few decals and stickers. Looking forward top coating this and putting on a white stand. Last mg kit purchase till April-May.

It's a good kit, but an early MG and it shows. I built it about 15 years ago.
Its a great MG i just hate the look - though I will buy one to go with ZZ 2.0 whenever we get it- and I see nothing but praise, in fact from all the Zeta stuff the Quabley was eaily the best MG.I am working on 6 MG kits but going from the easiest so I am half way done with my Heero Wing zero then Amazing red warrior

i just looked that up. it looks like a nice kit.
regarding RG's, it'll take me 2 months to complete. i'm really slow... and i get really stressed decaling it. panel line also takes me a while. i really hate if the shoulders look bad esp where the number goes and the eye decals.
it took me 2 days to do the shoulders of the de-active destiny and x-105 =(
after i finish reading crossbone i may have to hunt down some kits.
edit: oh damn i see more posts
i'm interested in the 78 origins as well
damn 6 kits... that's great =)
Well it makes kits look amazing so I can understand wanting it to look perfect.
V2 is okay, though I prefer V1.
I'm weird the things that make me like a suit are very specific and the bad part is the second it's to much I hate that to.
I love flair and sharp angles so stuff like Wing EW, Fenice, Scythe and even things like ZZ wing fins and knees make me love it. Same goes with Unicorn as all its plates have sharp edges.
Where as things like 78-2 is just flat and boxy looking and Quably's bulk is mostly just there to be there and serves very little purpose.
There is something about the way Katoki designs that really speak to me and it's why I like a lot his designs.

I just watched 7 minutes of heavy Arms getting it's ass kicked.
Lol watching Heavy Arms is hard in Extreme Vs.
Its notoriously one of the single hatdest suits to use, but that said watching it work can be amazing. Same with somethinf like X Divider is tons of fun to watch.

yeah, the numbers on the shoulders really stick out and the eyes.
for the deactive: i got a silver sharpie paint marker and added it bc the black shoulders looked too plain and was too dark for the gundam marker to panel line. (the plain look drove me crazy) a bit ghetto but used a toothpick to shave the excess off, turned out ok.
for the x105, on one shoulder, i tried using the grey gundam marker gm 01 and it looked too dark and nasty so i went and got a 0.3 pencil for the second shoulder and re went over the first one w/ the pencil.
but the decal edges got a bit dark because of the pencil smudges. took me hours to cut the decal edges off to try to mask it.

Too bad I can't play the online in that. Do I need a Japanese psn?

See I hate really busy MS, like G, W, X, SEED. Like Epyon and Virsago in particular I loathe. Deathscythe Hell(both) and Wing Zero(EW) annoy me with their flairs.
I love simple, clean lines. RX-78, Mk 2, V, V2, Nu, Gerbera Tetra, Jegan, Jamesgun, etc
The franchise has something for everyone

Indeed it does.
See I get over flavored quickly so stuff like SEED destiny, OO and IBO I can't stand so I'm this weird middle ground lol.
That said I do Love Nu and Ka Nu is in my top 3 suits.

yeah rg line especially Seed seems to have a lot of lines
If I remember right you do not need a JPN to just play.
I created one to download HiNu but after that I just played on my US account. DLC is store locked so if you wanted that you would need a JPN account of course.

How about the online? I know people on here like Donkey play.
davidwhangchoi

isn't jyp psn account really easy to make?
I think you'd need a PSN account of the appropriate region (JPN PSN for a JPN version, I think there's a HK version? maybe referred to as "Asia") to redeem the online code/download the game and it'll register the code to your PSN.
And yeah, it's really easy to make a Japanese PSN account.
You can do that with a na psn i believe.
Its only dlc that requires JPN.
If you mean quality, it runs pretty well. I have an easier time recommending Extreme as an online fighter then sonething like MK X
Isn't there 0080: War in the Pocket and 0083: Stardust Memory? I heard of MS IGLOO but I think it's CGI based. Dunno if it's worthwhile.
TY! will start those next.

Igloo is pretty bad
I liked them both (0080 moreso) but it's been a long time, so I might rewatch them too.

0083 the best!!! will re-watch it before building =)
There is nothing to watch after G-Reco. G Reco is the peak of the franchise.
In all seriousness if you haven't caught up on Universal Century you mind as well catch up now. Or watch Turn A. G Reco references Turn A and UC quite a bit.
No the game requires an online pass for the region you buy the game in, so in JP or HK if you were to play online. The DLC requires it too
The game has decent online if you are wired, it is just playing across countries can be difficult because a lot of rooms are segregated based on your ranking, win%, and internet connection bar level.
The game is very fun and you can set up a pseudo-lan play where all 4 PS3 is connected to the same network and it is very close to LAN.
I would suggest gundam fans and competitive game players to pick it up because it is a very fun and technical game.

Well since I'm in America using Wifi should I even bother?
If you play against other NA players it should not really matter. They would prefer wired but they're not going to kill you over it unless you have the worst connection possible.
The game has over 100 suits to choose from and a ton of fan service. The ones on the PS3 do not have the insanely stupid EX A story with the Dark Sthesias, only the arcade has that at the moment.

Are any of the suits or music I'd like DLC?
The top row is the PS3 version
The bottom row is the Arcade version
http://exvsrank.ninja-x.jp/exvsfb_30.html
It's a tier list but it also shows every single suit in the game at each cost level. 3000, 2500, 2000, 1500.
There's more than 100 and they're adding even more to the arcade one.
you can even play as the Hidolfr. a freaking tank.
