Operation MasuRE: Return of the Black Samurai Pt. 3

-----INCOMING TRANSMISSION-----


As part of the CelPrev First Anniv, I wiill be posting a couple of omakes back-to-back. This is because, contrary to what I have planned, I have to save up some more moolah for the MC Hi-Nu Gundoom purchase. Some obligations, along with law school missions, are continuing to take a toll on my time, stamina, and funds...


Anyways, on to our usual programming... XD




P.S. Post is VERY heavy on photos; make sure to view in at least a direct-wire Broadband connection...

Another year in Law school is about to start as of this posting, so I'll just have to make this quick. Prepare for a bit of a surprise later on as part of this blog's First Anniversary... ^^


P.S. The following pics were shot using the Nokia N8-00 that I got from my dad after trading back his N95 8GB along with my C3-00.

In response to the emergence of Full Frontal before the entire CelPrev roster (which included a heated hell-raising on a certain maroon suit, two men embarked on a journey to counter this threat. Which meant travelling to their old base of operations to retrieve and revive a derelict suit...

*Life Rant...


Well, Midterm Examination's quite done now. I'm stretching a few sore joints for now. And as of this post, I'm starting possibly the first Law-related Essay for quite a while. I'm still quite saddened with the inactivity on the previous review but then again, that's not my problem for now...

Hobby-No-Toriko creation: HG 1/144 00 Qan[T] Ultimate

Known for his clean kitbashes of HG (and some MG) model kits, Hobby-NoToriko may have gone overboard with his latest project. He christened it as the 00 Qan[T] Full Sword; I call it Setsuna's dream Gundam... XD


Let's check the numbers on this bad boy:

00 Qan[T] unit (with 3 GN drives, Avalanche Exia lower legs, and a head with elements from Astrea, 00, and Qan[T]):


GN Drives (Second-Gen) x3
GN Katars x2
Feet-mounted Beam Sabers x2
GN Blade Bits x12

XN Raiser unit:


GN Drives (First-Gen) x2
GN Buster Sword II x2
GN Buster Sword III x2
GN Sword III x2


The end result:

... absolutely overkill... O_O

Mr. Bushido: Looks fine and dandy to me... now WHERE THE HECK'S MY MASURAO'S INTRODUCTION?! 
Wes: The masked Gaijin has a point; Hrairoo's itching to flaunt its Hrududu II system now, come on! 
Amuro: Yeah! And when will you commence repairs for my Gundam, huh?!
Me: Uh... O_O

HG 1/144 Seravee Gundam GNHW/B Review (NK Tribute Pt.1)

* Box Pic From 1999.co.jp

*Life Rant...


I'm still trying to help my brothers and sisters to recover from what had just happened last 9/26, despite the fact that Law School activities have resumed, and the schedule for my Final Examination stays the same. And then I heard of Ngee Khiong shutting down his blog, which was quite surprising and sad at the same time.


Truth be told, it was through him that I fueled part of my enthusiasm for Gunpla, particularly when the RG RX-78-2 was announced (sadly its review will have to be delayed until further notice due to parts issues... '^^). Then again, when I read his last two posts, maybe he was on the right for doing so.


My take on this: if people do or do not want certain kinds of Gundams (especially when they get the Master Grade or Perfect Grade treatment), they are quite entitled to opinion, but they should be warned that their opinion, much like morals, may or may not be offensive to others. To all the haters, tread carefully when you make your point; we all have our faves and interest, at least give the rest the benefit of the doubt...


I may not have any fitting tribute for the man behind the majority of gunpla news that I receive, but I can at least dedicate this review, (and soon the RG RX-78's) to him. Thanks, NK...
