  • @Marshezezz Grandpa is growing on me. When I first got into gunpla and Gundam in general my opinion of the RX-78-2 was ... not kind. Now I'm actually looking forward to assembling the RG Ver 2.0.

    Armored Core VI Nachtreiher / V.IV Rusty

  • @wizardbeard All I did was panel line with homemade acrylic panel line washes (it is not recommended to use oil or laquer washes on ABS, of which this kit has a lot). Of the ~50 kits I have built, I've only put a matte top coat on 7 of them.

    My first MG kit was a Z'Gok, and I probably put together almost 20 HG's and 30MM's before it because of your same mindset. My recommendation is to just start simple. You can usually make edits later, but if you never open the box you'll never build the kit

    HGRfV RX-78(G)E Gundam EX

  • @TallonMetroid It actually is a single effect. It is attached to a gray piece that gets inserted into the revolver part of the rifle.

    HG Unicorn Gundam 02 Banshee Norn (Destroy Mode)

  • @TallonMetroid And this one came with extras: an articulated removable backpack/aircraft, *two* rifles, several attachment adapters, and a *unique* beam effect. It's the first EG I've put together that came with a beam effect, besides the full loadout Grandaddy Gundam.

  • @wirelesswire Definitely worth it. That shoulder cannon is awesome. The goalie helmet style head was a bit of a surprise, but with the decals on the shoulders and chest it doesn't stick out as much.

  • @orbitz Looking for anything that isn't just the top 5 of the year is honestly pretty hard. Here are a few High Grade red releases of varying price and availability from the last couple years:

    If you have patience and are willing to pivot, you can do a (good) RG kit as your first. You're more likely to finish a kit you like either way.
