Gundam in all guises

[Vector Prime]

Spent the last few days building this guy... MG Sazabi:

[Vector Prime]

The latest release (and completed) 1/100 MG, Sandrock:

[Stompy]

Sandrock is still sitting on my shelf unbuilt but it looks absolutely gorgeous on every picture I have seen it in.

Just waiting on HeavyArms and the EW team is complete. Then time to bring in the "Custom" variants.

I love the colour scheme for Zeta Plus C1. That mould is just a little off for my liking in regrds to proportions. The torso is too short compared to it's long legs. The v.2 moulds are much better. Although Delta's grey scheme is nice and of course the Unicorn Delta Plus tops both of them.

MG Sazabi is a monster of a mech! I bet he towers over all your MG's.

[Vector Prime]

Yes, Sandrock is indeed awesome - I was so impressed by the pics I saw of him that I decided to build him first even though I have a pile of other kits which have been sitting around longer.

Sazabi is quite an imposing beast compared to the other MGs - he towers over everything in my display at the moment (and looks very nice next to Sinanju).

For quite an old kit, I found him to be an enjoyable build and only found his backpack/rocket launcher thingy fiddly.

I agree with your thoughts on Zeta Plus, his proportions are a bit off, but he still looks quite nice since his colour scheme separates him from the rest of the white/blue/red/yellow brigade.

I've also bitten the bullet and purchased my first PG - OO Raiser (since it's on sale at HLJ for $320 shipped).

Not sure if I'll build him just yet though - might tackle MG Seven Sword next.

[Vector Prime]

My first PG arrived (OO Raiser) - had a look inside the box and wow... it looks very daunting.

Guess I'll just wait until I've built up enough courage to tackle building it.

For those not familiar with Gundam kits - it's pictured next to a 600ml bottle of water to give you an idea of how big the box is.

The figure itself should be around 32cm tall once completed.

Good luck on that build, it looks like you're going to need it

Lol... Thanks mate. How's the FAZZ travelling along?

Anyway, here's the recently completed, 1/100 MG Shin Musha

[gamblor916]

Sharp pics as always VP! I really like the glowing eyes effect.

Here's my work in progress, the massive gun is probably the highlight of this kit. I'll tone down the shading to match the one on the bottom.

[Vector Prime]

Man, I wish I had mad painting skills like you... this thing's gonna be a work of art by the time you're done with it.

[Stompy]

Looking good gamblor! Will be a sight to see when painted.

VP, a pity you got the regular Shin Musha. The special edition is pricey but it does have gold parts instead of that brown orange.

Enjoy that PG Raiser. Set aside a good 3-4 days for it. When I built it it took me 36 hours all up. You will not regret it. The price is justified. Unlike PG Strike Freedom which was really disappointing. Just don't do it in one or two sitting like I did. It's exhausting.

Pic below. PG 00 Raiser in the middle. Along with its 00 Gundam, Raiser and 00 Raiser HG, NG, FG & SD. Not pictured in the MG which was not available during the time of the picture as it was a full year ago when I took this.





You are gonna have so much fun building it. Looking forward to what your thoughts are with the build and the playability.
