RG Wing Gundam Zero (OVA Ver.) Review

-=-=-=INCOMING TRANSMISSION=-=-=-

My sincerest apologies for not updating on things for nearly a year. Had to deal with more IRL stuff, and procrastinations courtesy of new games and anime series. Still, consider this as my New Year's Eve gift to compensate for my Hiatus...

RG Strike Freedom Gundam Review

-=-=-=-=-=INCOMING TRANSMISSION=-=-=-=-=-

A fruitful 2014 to everyone. I am pleased to offer to you one hell of a review. Although this may only be one of the few reviews in English, I will try to be as objective as I can with this. After all, this kit was one that I personally did not expect to have been released at an earlier time.

HG (AGE) 1/144 Zeydra AlterAxia Review

-=-=-=-=INCOMING TRANSMISSION=-=-=-=-

A few good news AND a whole lot of bad news...

The bad news first: due to dwindling funds, any future Gunpla purchases will have to be put on hold. I plan  to have everything running again by December. Just need to save a lot for the war chest...

And just when I'm seeing new kits expected for release in the final quarter of 2012 (RG ZETA, NOOOOOO!!!!)

The good news though: this actually gives me time to clear up the blog backlog. And we begin with what probably the final review for this year. An omake is scheduled later on...

So, shall we?

HGFC 1/144 Shining Gundam Review

Yeah, quite a long-delayed review this, considering the fact that I purchased this baby a few days before Christmas, roughly the same time as the Zaku F2000 (before I gave it the GS-A treatment.) Nonetheless, this is gonna be the very first time I merge the WIP with the review.


So time to get this overly-long and quite overdue review going... WITH THE HELP OF KYOO- *slaps...

Zoidiect's Base Zeydra GB: Project AlterAxia Quick Summary

=====INCOMING TRANSMISSION=====


Here comes another Skunkworks exclusive, this time in tune with The Zeydra Group Build/Kickcharge contest. In the first place, I did not intend to pick up any model kit from the Gundam Age series, since: one, I have not seen the series yet; and two, most of the mechs there do not appeal to me that much. Then came this bad boy, as piloted by some white-haired chap who stands in as a Char for this series.


Boxart is quite aplenty with the red bits, but why use yellow as well? Anyways...

MAC Zaku GB: The Work-in-Porgress Summary

=====INCOMING TRANSMISSION=====

Yup, time to do some revealing on a few long-delayed projects straight from the Skunkworks. Starting off would be this behemoth, as entry into the MechArts Community Zaku Group Build:

Yes, I took the liberty of repainting and modifying this SOB into a slightly lighter-feeling Assault-type Zaku (sort of), then giving it a proper assortment of custom weapons for various mission types...


Here's some of the work-in-progress pics:

You can also view the WIP in-detail at the MAC Forums Workshop

I'll be doing the full reveals within a few days time, see ya there... ^^

MC 1/144 Hi-Nu "Gundoom" (NT-ZERO Type) Review

Yeah, so this is it. The supposed final chapter of the Impending [Gun]Doom series. The post where the lowdown on the Hi-Nu NT-ZERO type will be unveiled. It now ultimately culminates after nearly a full year after its purchase (took a veeeeeery long time, too...)


P.S. Seems after doing this, my taste for customizing Gunpla just leveled up one notch; makes the Red Comet Project look like child's play...


Well anyway, let's get this s*** over with... (As for the WIPs, just sift through the site...)

Oplan I[G]D Phase 6: NOT GvGN Plus*

* Short for Gundam vs. Gundam Next Plus, predecessor to Extreme VS...


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


Been two long months since the last post ( I even forgot that I already went past the 60-post mark, such a douche of me... '^^), due to academic BS and some indirect procrastination on my part. But then again, the show must go on, and so shall the climax to the Impending [Gun]Doom Series. Expect the review within the next few days... I promise... '^^


Anyways...

Oplan I[G]D Phase 5: The (Lopsided) Face-Off

-=-=-=-=-=INCOMING TRANSMISSION=-=-=-=-=-


Well, after two months of editing and indirect procrastination, here's the second part of the Impending [Gun]Doom Omake Series. I'll be clearing up further backlog once I get some time in the middle of February (Which includes two reviews and an update on my Zaku Group Build Entry... XD)


P.S. I ditched my old Photoshop CS3 for a CS5, and will be Anime Ace as my new font for my Omakes. (Hats off to Chessboard Attic for the tip...)


Anyhow, let's proceed...

[CelPrev Skit] New Year 2012. Gundam Fight style...

-=-=-=INCOMING TRANSMISSION=-=-=-

December 31, 2011, 9:45 PM, PST. 

Due to some excessive procrastination on my part, and other things that need to be done, Oplan I[G]D has been delayed again for next month, hopefully. (Still have a lot of pics to edit.)

Nonetheless, I'll be posting this New Year's Day quick omake, featuring a new addition to the roster... ^^

Well then.. READY... GO!!!!!

Inspiring the Inner Child: The Behind-the-Scenes Omake

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

Finally, I begin with the long-promised omake behind my MechArts Community Anniversary Wallpaper entry. Furthermore, I will be attending the Anniversary Party this coming 27th August (roughly 3 days before Midterms Season... XD); expect the sights, sounds, and all other crazy stuff in between by next month... XD


For now, we go back to our usual programming...

CelPrev Quickie Post: 1/144 Wing Gundam Zero "Re-Custom"

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


Now chances are, you've been reading updates from Gundam Guy, particularly on customized model kits featured in Japanese magazines such as Dengeki Hobby, Hobby Magazine, Gundam Ace, and the like. This particular custom-built model kit, as featured in Hobby Mag's August issue, didn't just made my optics lock in; it made them zoom so close to the laptop that I had to squint a bit to realize the awesomesauce.

Finally, after a couple of days I get to complete the process regarding this bad boy. XD I now proudly declare as of this point that this is so far the most AMBITIOUS that I have gone to, even beating the RG RX-78!


By the Way, here's the links leading to this suit...

* Life rant...

Well, finals season is over, but I still have to deal with summer classes to clear up my subject backlog, and hopefully finish my Law Course. Still, what better way to utilize the teensy moment to build Gunpla XD. Do bear in mind that this would be one part of another project I'm doing... Has something to do with the previous post...

So, look forward to it... XD

P.S. I used my dad's N95 8GB (while I patiently wait maybe for the N8...) for the photoshoot, so do bear with the photo quality... '^^

The Red Comet Project: Prologue...

-----CelPrev Incoming Transmission...-----

When we last left off the boys (*My term for the MS Model Kits of the CelPrev Collection), they relocated to a snazzier place at a living room cupboard. Just to make sure nothing was left from their previous spot, one certain suit stayed behind.

Little did he know... O_o

------

(Scans area) Seems all fine and dandy in this area. Save for that bag behind me. Better move out...

Wait a sec; what's that down there? Didn't expect the high confessor to pick up another suit...

Better have a look-see... (Engages optical sensors)

Wait... Are my eyes deceiving me?

(Zooms in on box, while the wind blows away the piece of paper on top of it...)

(Reads inscription on box...) MSN-06S Sinanju... Aw hell...

Better call for back-up...

----- End Trans-

P.S. Standby for a WIP and a review each of TWO different suits... >:D...

*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...
