I've been finding a lot of good deals on a few Toy Groups on FB. There's a ML one that's pretty good. I really hope they make a figure of the PS4 Spidey. I just love that design for some reason.
Been a while since I had a haul. Yesterday's pick ups and find:
My Mom found these in a garbage bag at a garage sale for $5. There was also a ziplock bag in there full of accessories.
gotcha
that's pretty dope, how much do they retail for?
I've always liked the look of the Nobel Gundam, thought about getting it and building it for my little sister. But then I remembered just how small 1/144 scale is and how I hate working on kits like that.
Those are BA, i likem and good stuff on the bid. Definitely get some photos up once you complete them and no rush on getting them builtnice! i have the old MG burning gundam, and shining gundam, and actually won the MG master gundam for $15 last week brand new on ebay. Hoping to build them at some point soon. Just bought a house so I'm hesitant to start a new kit before I move.
I did pick up this bad boy last night for a decent price
and Im hoping yo pick up this one later this week.
These things are definitely a process. I rushed with my Burning Gundam and broke a ball piece around the waist so that's why I have Nobel gundam posed that way to cover it up smh.
^slow down man
gotcha
My first kits were terrible, I didn't even know anything about the hobby.I used to twist the parts off the runner and leave all the nubs
Yeah man no doubt Ive got a like 8 built kits done right now all in various states of details. Whether its panel lines, paint, nub mark removal and such. And I have yet to use a single decal or practice using water slides either so ive got a long way to go. Im just on an XL sized gundam kick right now and i want big kits. Got these ones (and havent built any of them yet) But a lot of these kits are huge and bricks as well lol but im okay with that.Those are BA, i likem and good stuff on the bid.

. Just get some basic tools, invest in gundam pour type markers for panel lining and youre good to go.
you broke the piece that connects the waist to the torso? there's a way to fix that...or you could just order the partThose are BA, i likem and good stuff on the bid. Definitely get some photos up once you complete them and no rush on getting them built
i was a kid and I had no clue this was an actual hobby, i just enjoyed building these robots I use to watch on cartoon network
Don't i know it! I buy much much much faster than I build and Im okay with that lol When i get them for low enough I just buy them and let them sit until im ready for them. Good thing about these kits is if you get them for a good price you wont have too much trouble selling em if you have too. And thats exactly how I used to build kits back in the day. No type of tools or anything, not sure why I though that was the way you were supposed to do it. Ive gotten a lot better at removing nubs. those sanding/polishing blocks are miracle workers
Ex S and FAZZ are def bricksYeah man no doubt Ive got a like 8 built kits done right now all in various states of details. Whether its panel lines, paint, nub mark removal and such.

once you go 1/100 scale you're not going back
and i thought he was weird for doing that compared to just ripping them off like i did.
I broke the piece that connects the guard so I'm missing that in the front. I haven't been able to find just the piece online, I may end up building another burning gundam later on.
after a while when my fingers got tired, I would use scissors to cut the part off the runner and then use my teeth for the remaining nubi had a friend that used to use nail clippers
you mean that front crotch piece that connects the two front skirts? When you break a part you can't just look for it online. Replacement parts have to be special ordered from Bandai in Japan. A few online hobby shops offer that service, it's gonna take some time though.
