Got a couple of options, a possible lamp led bulb, and my family has several led light strips lying around. I'd want to cut open one of the wide box sides then get some white and black paper to line it right?
Was so disappointed when I got into kits that this guy didn't have a modern kit so this HG makes me very happy. Now if only we could get the rest of the shuffle alliance from G GundamHGUC Baund Doc:
This is like one of my favorite suits from Zeta! So happy to see a lot of it finally.
It looks really nice.
Built my first kit in years and it was a blast. Want to do decals but I've never put them on before and I'm too scared to clear coat haha.

Oooh, this looks sick.Holy shit the new HG Getter Dragon looks SO GOOD. It's selling out all over the place after the first day of preorders.
No, but you are correct in that it's Getter Dragon Infinitism.
Whaaaaa that looks awesome, been dying for a full hg Getter kit... with everything going on though it'll be a while before I'm able to order it easily in the west though hunh? Probably not out for a few months anywaysHoly shit the new HG Getter Dragon looks SO GOOD. It's selling out all over the place after the first day of preorders.
IN LOVE with the look of that kit. wow!Don't know if any people here follow Kotobukiya's works, but their new series "sou sai shojo teien" is pretty cool. It is a girl plastic model product line with "daily life" focus, unlike Frame Arms Girls and Megami Device which have a "sci-fi" focus. They currently have announced three original characters with different faces, haircuts and school outfits, as well as a crossover character from Frame Arms Girl.
From their latest announcement, heads from FAG and MD line are able to be used on their bodies as well.
And my favorite idea is, the hair parts from different characters can be combined to form another hair style.
Of course, this would require people to paint their kits for consistency. But I can really see this series will blow up way larger than FAG did. Imagine having collaborations with different anime series will put them in good position, especially when Bandai's figure plastic kits still sucks compared with those from kotobukiya. On the other hand, I still love their mecha kits like Hexagear and Zoids. Hopefully they will continue pumping out products for those series as well as going forward in this front.
Edit: speaking of Hexagear... Holy shit I want this

I have to guess the MS is not super popular by itself and it coasts on its historical relevance given that I've never seen anyone ask for a 2.0. A GM 3.0 would probably be more likely.
For reals. Perhaps it's just because i've just finished FF7 Remake, but painting the copterbot as a shinra themed scheme... I think would look great.
I think the Red Frame Kai (the one I've built) is fine but I have to say I have a high tolerance for old kits. It has a few stickers than I would have preferred having on the dry transfer sheet. Like the RG, the katana blades are chrome but the gold parts of the hilt and the sheath are puke gold.
I'll keep all that in mind, thanks.
Also here's a quick pic of that free UNIQLO Zaku kit I got. I really wanted the RX-78 but they were sold out when I made my tshirt order :(
This didn't even take an hour, it was a simple build (which makes sense cause it's based on that HGUC Char's Zaku from 2002). I do like the color scheme, though.
Did you order that from bluefin? Did they finally start shipping again? Or did you mean you passed it over previouslyFinally got something I should have gotten a long time ago.
Darn it you gave me hope. However with California entering stage 2 this week Bluefin should be able to reopen their warehouse I would think
This won't be of any help to you but what probably happened is that the fit of this parts was done without the extra thickness that the gold plating adds to the piece. Even following the correct steps it is possible that some piece might have a harder time getting into place.
You might be able to fix it with a brass rod (like in this tutorial: https://gamerabaenre.com/?p=2981), though this does require some extra tools. Apart from that, I remember seeing some sites that say they are able to order replacement parts from japan (https://www.wakuwakumono.com/order-gundam-replacement-parts-japan-step-step/) but I don't really know how legit they are.
The only place like that I know of is the r/gunpla commerce threads (https://www.reddit.com/r/Gunpla/comments/gbltbm/shopping_may_2020_commerce_thread/), though I'd imagine getting a single specific part might be hard.
