Gundam Heavy Arms EW due for Roll-out?

I've come across bandai-asia's site and the heavy arms is due for roll-out this January. I maybe mistaken or not but by next week it's already February. Let's wait and see....

Striking Thoughts on Freedom

At the end of the first working week of the new year last Friday, I passed by a hobby store on my way home. For some reason or whatever and with the small amount of cash at hand, a sudden surge of impulse cause me to buy this no grade Strike Freedom. Only then I realized I made a some sort of a stupid mistake of buying it. After a couple of master grades that I have already started assembling, it made me ponder that when I snap fitted this kit, there's nothing special about it. It only just took me more than 4 hours of the night to do it. I don't mean to bash or insult this kind of kit but probably it's because I was expecting so much like the details I had dealt with the MG kits. Believe me,  I have already built before a couple of non-grade kits from the 00 Gundam series but the details and build of the kits are quite far and progressive from the Seed Series. I checked the manual of the Strike Freedom and it was produced in year 2005.

Now, the striking question lies in my head on how am I going to customise it? Maybe within the next couple of days I may have the answer.

HGUC Gundam Unicorn Banshee

And it's now finally announced for release.... The Banshee Gundam Unicorn both in Destroy and Unicorn Mode HGUC trim. Images are courtesy of gundam.info. If I am not mistaken after checking the japanese topic it is due for roll out this 8th of January.

MG Gundam Exia Carbon Graphite Gold Frame

Here is the review of the MG Gundam Carbon Graphite Gold Frame. Quite long for a description. Nonetheless, this kit that I have during the vacation caught my interest on the inner frame of the kit. This is the reason why apart from giving much attention on the paint job of the armor, I put more effort on the details of the frame. Thus, I painted it with a mixture of gold and metallic graphite to achieve the effect.

Out of the Box: MG Gundam Exia

I just can't get out from the hang of it so I let the the MG Gundam Exia out after the snap fit and decided to square it off with my Tieren. A preview of what I'll add up on my next post.

Tieren Desert Storm Ground Type 1:100

This kit has been a typical playing ground for experimenting different types of weathering from soft to hard and battle damages. This kit is so popular from the 00 gundam series that is used by the Human Reform League in its ground warfare with the celestial beings. It has enormous amount of photos floating around the net so I won't bother to post here any out of the box pics to avoid redundancy.

I think this has been the kit that I have assembled quickest so far. It took me a day to snap-fit the parts together. Then another day to paint the entire thing, and lastly, another full day to put weathering and battle damages. Unfortunately, after completing it, it took me weeks before to post it here. Another kit in the pipeline caught my attention and I have left the Tieren standing on the shelf collecting dust.

Thanks to the runners of my MG Shin Musha, it has extra lots of parts and I was able to salvage its spiked flail mace. Then I added a chain to hold it together. 

Haro's Gunpla Meter

Hello everyone! I've just added a new and simple way of reviewing the kits. To be more concise and straightforward, Haro will show us how the kits are ranked and reviewed.

Gundam Unicorn "Ver Ka" Metallic Inox Steel Finish

The review of this Unicorn Ver Ka really took me some time to post during the holiday season. Although I had already finished doing the kit, my daughter got sick and I had to look after her. But anyway, because this kit is way popular and a lot of photos floating around the net, I didn't bother to pound this post with tons of out of the box pics. Secondly, I have to admit in advance that I'm disappointed with this kit. I mean there is one particular thing that turned me-off. Its articulation. . I bet most of the poses you will see around the net, this unicorn is just standing. Of course, with the use of an action base you can play around with its poseability but in terms of the legs movability, personally its a failure in my opinion.
