^^ neolordmaxwell's got the right idea. A good set of sable or camel hair brushes can literally last you years if you make sure to keep em clean. I'm debating whether or not to try out what Dalong did just for kicks. Given time, and the eventual degradation of the adhesive, those foil stickers will ...

A 112 score, 22 runners and an amazing design...that's a box full of WIN if you ask me. And did you see how he tackled the foil stickers? That's a hellova lot of xacto time. I think I'm still just gonna mask and paint the gold, but that was definitely an interesting approach I had't thought of. Anyh...

Dalong's MG Sinanju is up for any who are as anxious as I am about it. I got my shipping notice 2 days ago :D whoo-hoo! I was curious about something though and hopefully someone here will have an answer for me. I've been seeing alot of stuff about a custom bazooka for the Sinanju that's coming out...

I got the impression that Ali's new suit felt almost like an amalgamation of all three Throne units. Zwei wasn't completely destroyed and the Drei survived from S1. The right arm weapon on Ali's new unit almost looks like it could pass for the Eins's beam cannon...or at least a redesigned version. T...

Ahh ha...thanks for clearing that up. It was a bit of a "WTF another one?!?" moment for me.

HGUC Gerga Doga, MG R1 Shin Zaku 2.0, some other stuff. Is that a pic of a MG Zaku II Marine below the MG Shin's Zaku II? Interesting.....guess they're really going all out on the Zaku variants. I have to say, the Ahead model design is growing on me. I might just snag one when it comes to 1/100 sca...

Picked up Fable 2 last night and I'm wishing I was home playing.... :x What a phenominally creative game! I wish there was a way to snap the camera view to the front like many other RPG titles can but there aren't many gripes I have with this game. Go boot some chickens! Anxiously awaiting Fallout 3...

You can set yourself up with a Paypal account, but even then I think you'll need a credit card. If you have a bank account you could use a debit card too though. At least you'd be saving yourself some interest.

:lol: and no one's laughing, I promise! J/k

Well, I live in OH. The only place I've ever seen Gundam schtuff outside of websites is at Toys R Us and that was several years ago. Even the hobby shops near me don't carry them. I dunno, maybe I'm looking in the wrong places but Cleveland seems to be a black hole for Gunpla so I get all my stuff o...

^^You ain't kiddin.... :? I was hoping it would be a bit less pricey, but I guess I can understand the pricetag. It should be a bit taller than the MG Hi-Nu and certainly a bulkier design. I would imagine the inner frames could be fairly similar though....I just hope that's true and it'll have more ...

it seems too long to be those shields. and the text below is very suggestive: o gundam(probally 00 gundam) + something. and the HG 00 gundam has a hole in the back... I agree. Plus, if they were attached to the cone binders you would see the cone in the silhouette, which clearly we do not. It seems...

Apparently some DLC is coming our way in the form of a new level and some character skins for the PS3/360 versions of the game. Kinda cool....but I have to say, I saw something like this coming a mile away with a "XBL Marketplace" tab right in the main menu of the game. Honestly, this bein...

I still have all my boxes and stuff, but I think I'm at the same breaking point on what to do with them. I thought "Hey keeping them would be great for storage cause I only have so much shelf space." But as the piles continue to grow I think I might be going the route I went with all the W...

^^ So what you're saying is that the Trial System is some sort of "N-Jammer" like sytem but for GN Drives? I just wanted to clearify because I thought it allowed the Needlah to control other Gundams and not incapacitate them. Pardon my ignorance here :? EDIT: Dangit...ninjad by Homeless.

Yeah, I agree with Red on his comments. I guess I should've clearified why I bought the game in my previous post. That being I knew you can play as Vader and there's a code to play as Darth Maul. I'm a total Star Wars nerd...plain and simple, lol! 8) Plus I wanted a game to tide me over till the she...

So what's the verdict on the game? Should I get it or not? I picked it up last night. Played thru 3 levels so far, and so far the verdict is fairly good. The game is getting pretty poor reviews out there, I think X-Play gave it a 2/5 stars, most others are putting it in the 7/10 range. I don't thin...

^^ I think where it might affect movement is the weight issue. Maintaining balance will be difficult with those things in the shoulders unless they beef up its sturdiness. I'm assuming Bandai's just going to adapt the Exia/Astrea frame for this kit, and if that's the case, the hips/ ankles will be a...
