oh cool, i can't just casually drive up to leeds but it's good to know another site other than gundam mad, think they might be cheaper as well.

Yarp. The Neo Zeong there was more expensive than the japan.cool version. Plus if you ever decide to head up, they have an open showroom 7 days a week.
yea I've been having a nosey, seems pretty cool. Ordering that HG Qubeley from them, see how/who their delivery is.

I'm afraid of walking in today and walking out with more. >.<
What if it's like, a real equivalent of the store in Build Fighters?! With its own Rinko... Leeds Rinko... hrm, maybe not.
It does say it's not a store though, as they don't accept cash, but you can still buy stuff with a card I guess? Which still sounds pretty store-y

A Yorkshire Rinko... o.o

It's why he changes personas so damn much.
I think it looks good on the RD version.
Which I just preordered now... >.<
That's the 7-11 one? I thought that was the one I posted earlier. That color doesn't look bad at all.

That is not the 7-11 one. It's the web exclusive side funnel robot damashii. They do have an RD that's kinda like the 7-11 one though...

Welp, Neo Zeong is in the car now. It's not AS big as I thought it would be. xD

How heavy was it? Was it hard to hold?
donkey show

Nah, it was a lot lighter than expected. Awkward due to the size, but since it had a handle it was no biggie.

How many trays are there in there? There HAS to be a ton of them.

Thank youGot dat Beargguy III as well!
Oh crap littlebigplanet dev and recent neo zeong owner. Will you marry me?
I'm married, but my wife will be ok with it.
I don't know what scale that Unicorn is, but it looks like 2-3 feet?
Edit: donkey show works at Media Molecule?

I said wow.
wooooooooow.
That's too cool, man. Congrats!
Just got my Gunpla Starter Set 2 and... I already fucked up with my nippers.
What are some basic nippers that work well for these damn things?
wooooooooow.

Hi Crazy.
Used to work there, I think. If I'm not mistaken he's now at Sumo. Correct me DS if I'm wrong.
Devil isn't really popular enough to even make an HG of his scorpion form. Still scratching my head as to why there isn't a model kit of his final form, though. It's not really a huge mobile suit.
The ring has to be ordered separate from Bandai's own e-shop in Japan, so the only way to get it is via proxy.

That unicorn is 1/144, same scale as the Neo Zeong. I wonder, does the model have the golden ring that forms?

The Neo Zeong will stand at 34" at full height, so almost 3 feet.
And the psycho ring is web exclusive
Just Sumo Digital. Mm be mah peeps though.

Does the Neo Zeong come with a Sinanju to put inside it, or do you have to buy that separate?
No one would buy it, so they wouldn't make it. Toys are dictated by what's popular. Unicorn is super duper popular.
The solution to that is of course bringing back G Gundam and forcing it down people's throats!
This sounds like a good strategy to me.
Or just make the Build Devil the villain of S2 of Build Fighters. Nils can be all "Wow a toy that makes more plastic what an amazing science thing" and everybody else will be "IT'S EVIL" and that one really stupid guy on the internet will wonder why everybody is so serious about a game with toys.
Both of these are valid options. As long as we get some Build Spiegel in Corvo's alternative as well.

I'm hitting the ground running on this Gundam stuff. Going to Otakon this weekend and I want to get some kits. So far I've only put together the Build Strike Full Package and I'm not sure what to get next.

Maybe because it's because I still have a bit of Unicorn hype left in me but I really do find the Master Grade RX-0 suits (Unicorn, Banshee, Phenex) really attractive. The boxes are a little wide though but the Jesta box is a nice shoebox size.
And yeah give MGs a try!
So does that mean the models aren't necessarily the same as they appear in whatever media they're from?
As mentioned a model by Hajime Katoki.
He is a very well know and beloved Mecha designer from lost of stuff and has designed some of the most well know Gundams of all time.
Most well know works
Wing Gundam Zero EW (did all the EW designs) and Unicorn Gundam.
He also designed Master Gundam, Talkers and the rest of the TV Oz designs in Wing.

Awesome, thanks. So did he design the Crossbone? My reason for asking was because I came across an MG Crossbone that's Ver. Ka branded.
