Nice gundam pics! How did you get their eyes to glow?
I'm assembling my MG Fazz at the moment, I'll show pics when I get something decent together.

How did you get their eyes to glow?

The eyes are reflective foil decals, so a bit of carefully angled lighting.

what size diameter are the beam sabers? i'm looking for one that would be compatible with 5mm peg holes for Transformers - specifically TFC Dr Crank.

The beam sabre effect parts have a peg size of just under 2mm. Basically fits a 2mm socket.

The actual hilts themselves comes in various sizes.

[EDIT]: Actually, that's the Average beam sabre peg size for 1/100 scale models. Even in the same scale some might have different sizes.

Ridiculously awesome pictures as always. Hope the build for those three was phenomenal for you. Those 3 are great kits. You got the light perfect to "light up" Epyon Gundam's beam sword! Love it! You should graduate into building a Real Grade and a Perfect Grade when the means presents itself.

FAZZ is a monster of a kit! It's quite old but still a fun kit to build. I don't have FAZZ per se but I do have standard MG ZZ.



Whenever I take pictures of a trio of the same mech in Master Grade, High Grade & SD, a friends comment always go into mind - "It's like a Pokemon Evolution picture"


Ex-S Gundam tops it tho! Big mutha!

Thanks mate.

Here are my thoughts on those MGs:

G Gundam - very basic but still a fun build, the only gripe I had was the little screws. I did however love the rubber parts used for the base of his feet since they're ultra grippy allowing him to be posed in various action stances and not topple over.

Epyon - this guy is a totally awesome build, the engineering and design is well thought out - I especially love his chain/shield weapon that can be extended and flex or kept straight simply by pulling out on each of the links. I highly recommend it if you haven't already got him.

F91 Harrison - I found him very fiddly and my patience was tested since he's quite small for a 1/100 MG (meaning the parts were all relatively smaller too).

Shin Musha MkII - a very enjoyable build and looks the goods once completed, but I hated the gold parts since I needed to pay extra attention when trimming them (since the gold cracks and flakes if not done properly)

As for RGs, I don't really like any of the ones released (so far), but the thought of an MG type build in a smaller scale doesn't really appeal to me since I'm predicting it to be quite fiddly (like the MG F91).

I intend on jumping on a PG in the not too distant future - just haven't decided on which one yet (plus I still have a ton of MGs and HGs to work through first).

Here's the result of two afternoons of painting. I can't believe I have a blister on my trigger finger! And this is less than half of the parts!

[Vector Prime]

Wow... you're going all out with painting too - can't wait for the finished product mate.

[gamblor916]

Yep I only have the one so may as well do a good job.

The recently completed, 1/100 MG A1 Zeta Plus:

Nice pics VP! That guy was on my shortlist before I got the FAZZ. Bright orange and it transforms!
