    Do you buy Gundam Seed Models?

    Ummm........ Too many to just plain list here >< I'm like sitting on like...... 50+? I'll have to check when I get home (at work) Ranges from orginal Gundam, to Wing, to Seed-

    I'm not touchign the G-gundam stuff right now.....

    But, my pride and joy is my Perfect Grade Wing Gundam Zero Custom. I really enjoyed putting that one together ^^. Even the wiring to get the head and chest to light up, however much of a pain that was though ~_~

    Oh yeah, the SD Strike Striker pack Gundam too- that one is kinda cute ^^

    Yeah it comes in the biggest box ever. My friend has it, but hasn't come around to even unpacking it. Guess it takes some commitment to complete it as it's so huge.

    1/100 MG Freedom is awesome...it's got so many other corrected features (compared to HG) like the Wingspan, which is soooo important....and the foldout cannons also important for all-out-Hi-MAT-Cannons mode...haah...and the simplest but very crucial thing, a frikin stand...the stand gets rid of the need to balance it on its feet and is good for aerial poses. There's someone who made a custom freedom that looks frikin awesome. It's black, white, red, and some goldish and silvery parts, with some other mods...dammit I don't have the link for it tho....o.O...

    I've grown out of toys but I wouldn't mind having something like this collecting dust in my room. A really cool, if simple, custom made model of the Freedom.

    Model kits are not toys! You don't play with them. You display them.

    OK. I'll call them dust collectors then. I find putting stuff on display totally useless. I mean, after all, you really can't do anything with it unless you take it apart and put it back together again?

    I'm a minimalist at heart but my room is full of junk but they're either books, music, movies or games. I'll let somebody else waste their money on a piece of plastic - as long as it looks nice like the stuff on this thread.

    RE: Do you buy Gundam Seed Models?

    I've been wondering that to myself sometimes..... why do I buy pieces of plastic only to fix them up and paint them to display in my house? I can't really answer that but I really enjoy the painting and model making process. And when I am done I get a sense of satisfaction. Most people won't understand what I'm talking about, but it's the same as any other hobby.

    So...Whats the difference from these Master grade kits and normal kits and so on. And it looks like MG is the best so somebody knows where I can get a 1/100 MG Freedom gundam apart from stores.

    Who has the best prices for Gundam models?

    What your opinions on gundam markers; and where's a good place to get them? Or, should I stick to airbrushing?

    RE: Do you buy Gundam Seed Models?

    i have this 1/64 MG freedom from seed 1 but i didnt complete it yet because it is soo big.

    in reply to syruel, air-brushing does allow you to put in the details to a lower grade gundam that you wish but, i'll just say that MG and PG already have the colors and such included in with the pieces they provide you to make the model. and example: if you have a HG or normal model you probably have stickers to add the details but with a MG and PG there are only 2 stickers or even less for a gundam because all the pieces are already colored in.


    LaZie made this...a long time ago.

    RE: Do you buy Gundam Seed Models?

    I have the high grade 1/100 one, which isn't too bad itself. Got it at an unbelievable price of $15 Singapore dollars. That's around 8 US dollars! The MG one is much more expensive, around 45 to 50 US dollars. Totally worth it though, as it's one of the more definitive Gundams out there along with the RX 78-2.
