Moving on to the MG Gyan now.
Completed the MG RX-78-2 v2.0 Gundam
Gunpla
Working on the MG RX-78-2 ver 2.0
“Can you please build my legs now?” The Master Grade RX-78-2 version 2.0 is coming along nicely. Bandai keeps improving on it’s model designs and this one is easy to build. Compared to the version 1.5 it’s a joy. Once I’ve completed it I’ll take a picture of it next to the version 2.0 of [...]
Yep, that’s the deal with my son
This is the HG Hy-gogg I just built. I have been catching up on my Gunpla stash lately because of a deal I made with my 7 year old son. When he’s extra good in school he gets to build a model with me. He’s been extra good for the last 4 school day so [...]
Finished Char's MG Zaku II ver 2.0
I finished Char’s Zaku II version 2.0. I’ll post better pictures on Flickr today. These newer MGs from Bandai keep getting better and better. The joints are very articulate and the whole model is very posable.
Speed Grade Wing Gundam
My son completed another model. This time the 1/200 Speed Grade Wing Gundam. I have to slow him down or we’ll run out of models for him to work on. This one is his third model this week. It’s great seeing him concentrate on the parts and following directions. He gets very focused on what [...]
First model my son built
The set of First Grade 1/144 models from Hobby Search came today and my son wanted to get started. After dinner we sat down and he got to work. I think he did pretty well for someone almost 7 years old. All I had to do was show him how to clip the pieces off [...]
Got some Speed Grade models
My soon to be 7 year old son is fascinated whenever I build a model. He really enjoys just watching me and examining the parts I put together. It’s part of that whole son dad thing and I like him watching me too. His school teacher wants him to work on things that have step [...]
Not Gundam models
I ordered some 1/144 scale FG models from Hobby Search and was excited to see they arrived. I ordered 6 and each one was 285 yen, so with EMS shipping charge of 2,800 yen I spent ~$47. What I actually got instead of 6 FG Gundam models was two Tamiya 1/48 scale German 3ton 4×2 [...]
Zaku II version 2.0
I’ve picked up on making the Zaku II version 2.0 again and have completed the torso and head. It’s a good model and when I have it complete I’ll put the old 1995 version next to the 2007 version for comparisons. My kids love watching me build these. I have some left in the basement [...]
Gundam 00 Season 2 begins
The second season of Gundam 00 has begun. No huge surprises yet but this season seems to be imitating Zeta Gundam more and more. I’m pretty sure we’ve just met the group that will be this series Titans. I wonder how long it will be before Bandai produces a Master Grade 1/100 scale version of [...]
