Gundam 00 + Gundam Exia = Triple Drive!

This is my planned modification for my Gundam 00 kit, to replace the upper body of Gundam 00 to that of Exia's Why?

One GN Drive...

Plus Two GN Drives!!

Well, one is that the construction of the Exia Frame is quite unique with the Gundam built around the GN Drive! Next, the idea is to have a Gundam that has not only two drives but THREE! That would make this Gundam one powerful weapon! Weehaw!!

So if you guys are wondering what this baby looks like then take a look this:

MG Gundam Sinanju Bandai Kit Pics

I posted some of the earlier pics of Sinaju just right off the production block, so the shield and the shading was yet to be added.

Anyway, before I post any pics, I would like to say that this kit, the MG Sinanju, is the best kit to piece together! Its probably next to MG Strike Freedom and the Char Zaku 2.0. The only complaint is the absence of extra fixed hands since the rifle is quite heavy.


But again, that is just a minor setback - again this is the best of all the kits I have!!! So keep your hard earned money and skip Sazabi - and go for Sinanju!!

So here it is, the beauty that is Sinanju!

PG Strike Bandai Gundam Kit

Dadating na din ang aking kauna-unahang Perfect Grade na Gundam. At ito ay walang iba kundi si Strike Gundam!

Medyo mabigat siya sa bulsa, wakekeke pero ok lang basta alam ko asteeg itong kit na to!

Kaya naman, hindi ako magmamadali sa pagbuo sa kanya, nanamnamin ko ang bawat oras na binubuo ko siya. Kahit na abutin pa ako ng 2 o 3 buwan sa pagbuo sa kanya...

Pero kalakip nitong pagbili ko ng Strike na PG, isang panagko naman ang aking itataga sa bato... at ito ay ang pangako na hindi muna ako bibili ng Gundam Kit sa loob ng 3 buwan...

Opo tama po ang inyong nabasa, lolx! 3 buwan!

Bibili na lang ulit ako kapag lumabas na si MG na Exia... yan po!

Abangan niyo na lang po ang itsura ni Strike kapag nasmiulan ko na siyang gawin!

Asteeg!

O Raiser - Bandai Gundam KIt Review

The O Raiser is finally out in the Philippines and I got mine a few weeks back for 1,100 pesos, care of Best Toys Greenhills.

The set kit containing the O Raiser, Gundam 00 plus a Celestial Being stand would usually cost 3,000 to 3,200 and they are now available at all toys stores in Greenhills and Alabang (R-Toys, Great Toys, Best Toys and Wasabi). If you guys can wait, I believe Toy Kingdom will get the latest 00 kits by 2ND week or 3rd week February.


Anyway, a quick review of the O Raiser reveals that once again the new build has tremendously improved from the last 1/100 HG kits from SEED.


Now this kit has a very small box with only 5 runners, but after building it you would know with its weight that this kit is no push over.


But this good build can also pose problems once we combine it with Gundam 00. The back pack is really heavy on the Gundam kit, add the side wings, then you are also side heavy.



One option here is, at least whats what we did was to add some clay in the hollow leg parts of the 00 gundam. And one good advice: keep the kit on the stand, the weight can be distributed evenly, with the proper pose.




Finally, with all the minor issues, the O Raiser, plus 00 is one must have kit! I can't wait for the MG, cough em up BANDAI!!

Look Ma - It GLOWS! Gundam 001/100 Bandai Kit

I posted about the 1/100 Bandai Gundam 00 kit last week.

Besides being a very sturdy 1/100 kit, the Gundam 00 model boasts of another significant trick up its sleeves - and that is (dundundundun) the glowing GN drives!! Tada!

I was not able to post it the last time because it was quite difficult to find the right battery size, but alas! The GN drives have been powered up after a long yet fruitful search!

And so without further adieu - here is the lighting gimmick from the Gundam 00 kit!

True to the Anime version baby! Green is the way to go!

Here is a closer look!

Now to emphasize the glow - lights out please!

And now, as we bid you farewell - let us take a look at Gundam 00 and all its splendor... from Behind! lolx!

Gundam 00 - HG Gundam Exia Kit

Hello People! I know I have been posting a lot about Gundam 00 kits lately and some might think that its starting to get boring...

But what the heck, I'm crazy over these new kits so I'm just going to post about these babies to my heart's content! Wakokoko! Anyway, I like to highlight the stark improvement in HG kits from the 00 series.


As you can see, this Exia model looks mighty fine as an HG. There is full attention to details, and the "inkable" parts are abundant! Heck I had to panel line more areas for this HG than the1/100 Gundam 00 kit!He he he!



The arms are double jointed and the legs are tight and compact! The main Sword is a bit long er than that from the anime size, but the build for it is a darling!


Bottom line is, the HG kits have gone a long way, so if your thinking of starting a hobby at a reasonable budget, than the current HG kits from the Gundam 00 series is your best friend!

Asteeg!

Gundam 00/0-Raiser Please - wag Mahalan! Lolx!

After Building Gundam 00, the natural next step is to get the add on - 0 Raiser!

In the anime, the 0 Raiser helped Setsuna's Gundam to use his GN Drives to its full potential. In episode 12 of Gundam 00 Season 2 (tama ba?), Gundam 00 finally united with the 0-Raiser pushing the Dual GN drive's performance to 300%! Asteeg!


So now going back to the 1/100 Bandai kit of Gundam 00, the 0 Raiser was sold separately... naturally! Argh!

I am hoping and praying that the solo 0 Raiser kit will be sold at a reasonable price - please!!!


And the next hope is that I find the 1/100 kit of 0 Raiser ASAP! I Can't wait to finish Gundam 00's construction! Wah! Game na! Wasabi, Great toys, Best toys and Rich toys! Go go go!

Awesome Gundam Design! Exia + GN Arms

Its usually the Gundam Custom designs on the net that inspires me to piece together a kit and come up with a version of my own.

It may not be at par with those done by professionals, but I guess that's not the point... its the inspiration that makes the deal right!

So to all Plamo hobbyists out there, a million thanks for posting your works of art online! Asteeg!

Anyway, in line with this, I would like to show you a mecha design of Gundam Exia + GN Arms that just makes me want to get an Exia and start painting, he he he!

Here it is, asteeg na Exia repaint! Complete with mods!

Here is the standard color for Gundam Exia!

And finally, a completely modified 1/100 Exia kit - custom built to Master Grade perfection (drool)! Teach me how to do this! lolx!

Hopefully, the next gundam I will be posting here will be another work of art done by me! Wakokoko! Hopefully I have the time and the resources though! He he he!

Gundam 00 1/100 - 0 Raizer na lang kulang!!

Good Day guys, I'm back in building Gundam kits, this after watching Gundam 00 season 1 and episode's 1-13 of season 2.

At first I did'nt like the Mech designs of 00, but after watching, I was converted. I specifically love Exia now! And I'm also looking forward to seeing the next evolutions of the new gundams in season 2.


For now, while waiting for further advancements, I have decided to focus on 1/100 kits since MG's of 00 seem to be too far off the future (bilisan niyo Bandai!!!MG na!).


But I will admit, the new 1/100 kits are not as hollow as before. In fact some of the parts seem a bit MG'ish already, so overall, I'm quite satisfied with the Gundam 00 kit!


We had to use clay at some parts, but again, this beats the old kits at 1/100 by GN drives to solar furnace's! lolx!


Now, I sit and wait for the 0 raizer to come so I can complete this baby! Go 00 go! grrrrr! Oh and the glowing GN drives is cool, it's just difficult to find the battery though, so pardon if the pics here of 00 are "glowless," he he he!




Anyway, for all avid Gundam 00 and Bandai Gundam kit Addicts, I fully recommend this 1/100 kit - its worth every penny of it!
