Yes. Probably some Chinese bootleg abomination.Is that Garfield's head on a Transformer's body in a package that says Mobile Suit Gundam on it and uses a MACROSS mech image?
Yeah the Beast Wars stuff is either a love or hate kind of thing. I don't remember hating it, but I'd probably never get a figure of it either. They'd probably really have to put some work in to make a good figure for it.I'd say that is an improvement. I hate that optimal optimus figure. Still have mine somewhere...

Transmetals had some neat stuff, there just isn't enough going on there for me with that optimus. Its a humanoid ape-robot that turns into a humanoid robot-ape (and a silly car and jet). I like the proportions on that PE one though.Yeah the Beast Wars stuff is either a love or hate kind of thing. I don't remember hating it, but I'd probably never get a figure of it either.

Keep hype low so you aren't let down. I am still dizzy from the bad IBO reveal a few days ago.Saw the news about about a new game announcement on the 21st. Should I get excited?

What if it turns out one of the two secret games From Soft is making is this?

That's some nice weathering. I assume you've built plastic models that aren't gunpla before?Just finished my first build, Zaku II [RG]. Had a blast, and learned a lot. Hoping my next build comes out better, RX-79 (G) EZ-8 [MG], I should be better prepared for that one.
Link to the build album, it's either an album or post, idk how imgur works lol.

You may want to also post this in the plamo thread.

That's really good for a "first" build. Usually one expects out of the box builds without panel lining, weathering or battle damage with a few ugly nub marks and a couple of slightly misplaced stickers before people start to improve. :)Thanks. I used to build model air planes when I was a kid, but that was 20 yrs ago lol. This build was me getting back into the hobby basically not knowing anything haha.

Even the photographs are unusual as what one expects from first-timers is unevenly lit models, rigidly posed, displayed in a busy background and taken from an angle that is too high for the small subject.
I know because I've been there. :P
Being someone with a big amount of attention to detail and willing to put the work is always a plus when it comes to building model kits, so kudos to you.I watched a lot of videos and lurked a lot on r/gunpla looking for tips. I really wanted to do the weathering and damage, since I used to collect the Gundam Battle Scared line of action figures when I was a kid, always loved that look. The local gundam store ("Gundam Galaxy" I can't believe it exists) helped me get the right tools to get started when I picked up the kit, then I ordered more supplies as the build progressed. Took my time, nibs drove me crazy but knowing I'd be weathering I felt I could cheat and hide the ones I gave up on fully removing / polishing.
Photo and lighting, took the photo with a point and shoot Sony RX100 mkII, built a light box, first one, out of an empty beer box and a cut up christmas gift bag. That was also used as my matte top coat spray booth. Light source was my under cabinet lights lol. Did not expect any of the results I got with the entirety of this build.
whens the next Gundam Musou :(Was thinking about the new Gundam game announcement coming in a couple weeks. Since the trailer is debuting in Gundam Battle Operation 2 before it's general unveiling, I'm assuming a couple things:
1. PS4 game. Might be on other platforms as well, but definitely PS4.
2. More than likely UC-based. Would sure be weird seeing an AU title announced in something that's hardcore UC oriented.

And this would be my nightmare.
Do not get your hopes this high for the Gundam game announcement, y'all.

Now that I've watched it on a bigger screen...the beach and sand are both CGI? And why the hell does the Penelope look like it just came out of a PS2 cutscene?What's with the animation?
Looks like a fan project on Kickstarter or Patreon...
I'd love it too but I don't think BN would put effort into a single player GBO2 when they rather just point people to that.I'd love a current gen single player title running on the GBO2 engine.

Ideally I'd want something like what Artdink did with Macross 30 but that is never happening.
Yeah I really hope that isn't in anyway close to the final product because it looks rough as hell. Probably just a rough cut they put together quickly just to show something.Now that I've watched it on a bigger screen...the beach and sand are both CGI?

Hopefully it's just a rough cut they put out for the PV but jeez. Not what I expected of an UC Gundam theatrical production at all after Unicorn/Thunderbolt/Narrative.
Sunrise knows that fujoshi are the true saviours of mecha anime.
I do. It was other way around, tho. Orga wanted Merribit but kinda got over it after a while.
Dedication Though Light is that you?Sunrise knows that fujoshi are the true saviours of mecha anime.
The only porn I care about in robot series is mecha porn.
