I’ve opted to simply get the Damashii figures for some of the stuff Bandai doesn’t seem to care to upgrade.
Collectibles Gunpla

I got the Deathscythe Hell MG over the weekend and I got the torso, head, and arms done. I should have both legs done and half of the crotch done tonight.
I got the Super Nova Heavyarms custom coming hopefully this week. Amazing how it's almost unanimous that some Chinese recaster made a better kit than Bandai in every conceivable way in regards to that.
I might pick up some of those Gundam 00 kits as they're cheap and I like their weapon loadouts.

Just ordered this.
I don't know much at all of Gundam 00 but I like the theme of it with everybody primarily uses swords. This one has LEDs. I might start watching it soon. It ain't the first time I've ordered something I know nothing about and got it purely for looks.
I'm probably finished my Deathscythe Hell tomorrow and I'll do a Gundam tour maybe Saturday.

I got into Iron Blooded Orphans because of the Barbatos. He looks fucking nasty. I’m not keen on his other forms, but the first one is probably my favorite look since Wing Zero and the RX-78.
That is a great design. It’s got almost the same color scheme as the RX.

Most of the main Gundams share that color scheme. In fact, I actually hate when they stray from it. When it’s supporting characters, it’s perfectly fine. The main Gundam has to have those RX-78 colors. For the longest time I really disliked Nu Gundam and Unicorn Gundam.
Well Nu was just trying to divorce itself from it for a new era. Unicorn is just a whole different deal entirely.
I finally finished my Deathsycthe Hell. I might do my Gundam tour this week finally. I got my XN Raiser Gundam 00 yesterday so I'll start that tomorrow. It's got LEDs I believe.
I ordered that Heavyarms Super Nova over a week ago and I should get that one Monday. I've wanted that one for the longest time now. It's got eight miniguns as opposed to the regular that has four. It's also bigger than the MG P-Bandai version.

Warmachine would be proud of that arsenal.
Tons of people that have it say it makes the Bandai version look like a joke. It's a shame the reboot Manga didn't do anything with that custom version to make it a bit more formidable like it did with Wing Zero, Altron and Deathscythe. They just ignored Sandrock and Heavyarms and didn't change them from their film counterparts. Supernova tries to give a variation to what's established, although they just recasted that metal build Wing Zero that has the switchblade wings... but I guess that's fine.
I started Raiser earlier and holy shit does it have a lot of foil stickers. You can use the ones that allow light from the LEDs but I don't think I'll ever use that gimmick.
The instructions are finally convenient for building in the sense it tells you all the runners you need to build the part your on. It may have been like that for years but any GW kit never had them.

I'm currently working on the Heavyarms Super Nova model. Not my picture BTW.
They use a really cheap plastic so I've had shit snap on me which I've had to glue together. I did order a second kit since there's some parts I want to replace. It's definitely a vast improvement over the vanilla version I think as it has some extra vents on it's body and some accentuating lines.
I just need to finish the backpack, legs and all the guns. I love that it comes with a real deal action base and not the crap they gave Wing Zero.
I also just ordered the Full Armor Unicorn as I'll be done Heavyarms by tomorrow or Wednesday.

I finished the Heavyarms Supernova an hour ago. The amount of panel lining on the gun barrels was a complete pain in the ass. Not hard to do, just irritating at there's 48 of them. I got my Unicorn I need to do, but I need to build the action base for Heavyarms he came with.
I might get into Turn A Gundam and buy those up, as I've come to really like the designs of A and X. There's a two pack with a special Nano skin look I might get.

I really need to start doing reviews of these. I'm half done the body for Full Armor Unicorn. The head was a weird build as it transforms and I kinda became confused as I couldn't get some of the parts to mesh.
Since I’m out for the next two weeks I’m going to start doing reviews of my stuff. I never did it since I always felt to was too difficult for some reason.
My Unicorn body is fully done now but I gotta do all the weapons and accessories and that’s a mission to finish on its own.
I also ordered Turn A which I get next week and I’ll get Turn X at some point. I’m actually considering some of the Gundam SEED kits.
