I've been eyeing this one for almost two months until I finally caved in and bought it. I was holding myself back because of how much I spent on the FA-78 kit (review still pending, please understand). I pretty much stopped buying 1/144 Gunpla kits after that one so I can have enough money to … Continue reading Build – MG 1/100 RGM-79G GM Command Colony Type

Post Assembly – Top Coating Gunpla (First Full Kit Application)
I bought the Flat Clear can last month, but I never got the chance to coat any kits until this week. I hoped that I could squeeze the activity into my schedule during my days off on Saturdays, but I end up cancelling because I'm lazy and/or forgetful. The kit I chose for this test … Continue reading Post Assembly – Top Coating Gunpla (First Full Kit Application)
Build – SD Gundam BB Senshi 200 RX-78-2 Gundam
Here it is, the last member of my SD White Base Mobile Suit Unit. I made it a point to build this one last because it made the process a whole lot sweeter as a Granddaddy Gundam fanboy. The last thing I need to get is an actual White Base model kit, but that's gonna … Continue reading Build – SD Gundam BB Senshi 200 RX-78-2 Gundam
Build – SD Gundam BB Senshi 225 RX-77-2 Guncannon
Finding a reason to get this kit was pretty easy. Because I already ordered the BB/SD Guntank, I just had to get myself a full set of the White Base MS Trio. I got this kit and the BB/SD RX-78-2 from my usual online vendor. Good thing they still had a few in stock because … Continue reading Build – SD Gundam BB Senshi 225 RX-77-2 Guncannon
State of Affairs – July 2018
The last week of June and the first few days of July were busier than expected. I had hoped to post reviews for the few kits I managed to finish, but I felt pretty drained by work. No worries though since I still documented the build process for each kit and I WILL post a … Continue reading State of Affairs – July 2018
Figure Build – SD Gundam BB Senshi 221 RX-75 Guntank
I'm proud that I managed to watch and finish the first Mobile Suit Gundam series. It made me appreciate how much Mobile Suit designs and animations have evolved throughout the years. I particularly enjoyed the dynamics between the White Base's MS team, the Guntank, Guncannon, and granddaddy Gundam. I felt kinda bad that the Guncannon … Continue reading Figure Build – SD Gundam BB Senshi 221 RX-75 Guntank
Tests – Waterslide Decal Application and Flat Top Coating
It has already been over two months since I got into GunPla as a hobby, but I've never had the chance to use waterslide decals. Most of the kits I got had clear stickers at best, and the MG Deathscythe only had dry transfer decals. The concept behind waterslides made me worry because I don't … Continue reading Tests – Waterslide Decal Application and Flat Top Coating
Cagayan de Oro City SM Uptown Toy Fair 2018 – Day 1
Toy Kingdom and CDO Toyzone collaborated in organizing this toy fair. It was originally scheduled early last May, but had to be rescheduled a few times. Although it kind of bummed me out at first, I completely understood that they had to iron out details and tasks like inviting collectors, designating the event area and setting … Continue reading Cagayan de Oro City SM Uptown Toy Fair 2018 – Day 1
Figure Build – HGUC 1/144 RX-78-2 Gundam REVIVE
I'm happy to say that it has been two months since I started GunPla. It's been a few days since my last build, but I did find time to start watching the first Mobile Suit Gundam anime. I also made some progress in touching up my completed builds and even finished panel lining my 1/100 … Continue reading Figure Build – HGUC 1/144 RX-78-2 Gundam REVIVE
Figure Build – NG IBO 1/100 Schwalbe Graze (McGillis Type)
I've learned to love the Iron-Blooded Orphans designs over the course of watching the first season. The grunt type Graze mobile suit was a particular favorite. I intended to get the 1/100 for that particular MS but the local stores were unfortunately out of stock. I did manage to get my hands on one HG … Continue reading Figure Build – NG IBO 1/100 Schwalbe Graze (McGillis Type)
