2010 Gunpla Summary



2010 review of my toy~! January I started my collection with NG1/100 Astraea. I eventually like gunpla because of the building process and the end results. Next, I got myself a MG ZZ and Shining gundam during Chinese New Year which I'm exposing myself to another level of gunpla. Initially I just want my collection to be all in 1/100 but this plan spoiled during April because my budget doesn't allow me to buy 1/100. So the first HG1/144 that I bought was Gundam Unicorn(Unicorn mode). I was really impressed by the detail and engineering technology that Bandai used on this kits which tells you how much they had improved throughout 30 years engineering mechanism.

Slowly I move into the HG 1/144 OO series and also the same thing happen where the design and articulation improve so much. I still remember where I first attempt to buy gundam when I was small. It was a FG(Furoku/First grade) hence it's really easy to build but the hand has no ankle joint same goes to the leg. Thus, you really can see how much they improve.

I also witness how the Japanese do their business through gunpla. They tend to change a little thing and sell it to others until the product is fully dead. Also~ selling those renewed old gundam is another approach for them. The best example of renewed old gundam is always~~ RX78-2~ THE GRAND DADDY~!

So here is all the hauls that I get throughout 2010;

HG:
- OO raiser 7S/G -OO raiser expo clear version -O gundam Rollout version -Unicorn(UM)
- OO raiser Trans-am -Cherudim Trans-am -Unicorn(DM) -Sinanju -Raphael -Harute
- Arios GNHW/M -OO quanta -Exia repair II Expo Crystal version

RG:
- RX78-2

MG:
- ZZ gundam -Shining gundam -Gundam Wing Ver ka -RX78-2 OYW ver

Last but not list, before this year end~ I got myself a Master Grade GUNDAM UNICORN~!! After all the impressive HG then back to MG, MG is much complex or in other words I called more fun to build this thing. Yeah, this year no PG and also following year. My budget won't allow me to buy that much. ><" Sadly, but definitely gonna get one. Tengok nasib lah~~

See you guys next year. If you have blog then I would like to be your follower too then I may have wider view on Gunpla. Anyway, stay tuned for more review and random diorama. BYE 2010~!

[HG]OO Qan{T} Part B


SASHI BULY~!!(Long time no see in japanese.) I'm back with my blog~! ^^ Speaking of what have I done......The RG RX78-2 is done BUT that guy definitely I'M NOT GONNA make a review. Simply because that kits really frustrating(THE PART BEING TOO SMALL so if you lost one SHXT then it's gone forever~~~ T-T ).


So for this review, I'm gonna talk about Double O Quanta. I could say this kits is one of the "pass" HG because of few points:

A)colour separation are good
B)Price are affordable (approximately RM57)
C)Shield are COOLu~!
D)it comes with a GN colour stand.
E)Weight issue surprisingly NO~
F)Articulation wise

BUT BUT BUT~ a few bad things to discuss about also:

A)You have to paint some parts(To be specific; the upper parts of the front and back camera, the clear parts and the feet.)
B)The Shield decrease the articulation of the head and hand.

THE DRAMA START HERE(note; it's a random story line, chat and not related or somehow related to the anime. XD~!)
Here goes.......
Exia: Long time no see..........OO quanta aniki(Brother in japanese.)

OO Quanta- Yeah~ It's been days.....(WAIT, aren't me produced right after OO raiser?! This guy is mad~ ><" Let's just act like I know him.)

Exia: I've been waiting for today~! Let's battle~! Battle for love~!
OO QT: Okay~! (What's that love supposed to be?? Btw, I'm gonna take this since he's using old GN drive.)
*Note; dear viewers, love refers to family love. Do not misunderstand~ *

*In a blink of eye which is specifically 1.0132567891 second......bla bla bla~*
Exia: Aniki, you became weaker.....
OO QT: What the~ I haven't even move....><"

Exia: I'm gonna take this......muahahhahahahhahahahhaha
OO QT: hey, I thought it was just a game. Bro, take it lightly~ ahehehe~*with a soft tone*

*This is also happened in a blink of eye which specifically 1.1xxxxx which explain the quanta energy is faster than GN system.*
OO QT: HAHA~ Loser~ I send out my bits earlier can't you realize~! (Please kindly check the 4th image ^^)

OO QT: At this rate, I think I have no choice but to use that.........SEAL power.....
Exia: What~! *Of course, from FAR~!*

OO QT: SHININGU FINGA~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Eh, no~! SHININGU GN BITS~!!!!! *with a strong tone of course~*

*At this point, I think I require the Exia yell~!*
Exia: arrrrrhhhhhhHH~~~~~~~~


OO QT: Special service for you bro~!

OO QT: Looks like I'm a bit over ><" By the way.......

OO QT: I could survive with just 1 BITS~!
* You should know that right?! ><" *

Conclusion, honestly if only you like the OO QT then only you buy this.

[HG] Gundam Harute

SPEAKING of this Gundam HAROOT~ I like this the most among the 4 lead gundams in the OO movie. It has the most unique look. Despite the birdy look, IT LOOK REALLY COOL~

Okay, from today onwards my blog will be changing style. You guys want to know anything then just post your question or comment beside here ----> (in the chat box)
I will be just uploading photo and some additional stuff such as random conversation and some thoughts so it's better for you to ask question.

Am I supposed to be a Nerd? I'm with a blue colour spec~!! ><"

At least now I look cooler~ ^^
NOTE; For the joint is very weird. Instead of the hand is on the side now the hand it's actually facing upward but can be forgiven since it's a transformable Gundam.

What's this supposed to be? GN Cock-drive?? XD~!
Note; I painted it clear green. It was in Clear piece.

After you painting it, you will realize the cock drive is hide behind the skirt hence you can't really see it. I do like they do it this way instead of giving you 1 whole GREY pieces. BANDAI, love you for doing this. ^^

Harute: I do look cool ~!!!
O gundam: I look cooler~! I'm flying and Setsuna staring at me like DXXXXXXXG~! XD

Harute: I'm Orange ranger~!
O: I'm colourless ranger~!

Conclusion;
Advantage- i) Cool looking ii) It transform~! iii) Heavy backpack~! iv)articulation wise~ V) Colour separation vi) THE GN- COCK DRIVE~!!
Disaavantage-i) The skirt easy pop off ii)Side skirt easy pop off too~ iii)Hard to balance unless adjusting the backpack
