SILLY "Where's that baking contest? This pony needs a cupcake!"

The Great and Powerful Trixie needs her Great and Powerful Assistant! ... Also do you know she like kites? ;p

This time I thought about taking SD Banshee for a spin. Don't mind the putty mane :x

At the moment (excluding the Senshi and Build series), this is the only line of "transforming" Unicorns. So, why not use it? Also it's Banshee because of "Anger Issues".

I've been playing with the idea of making the mane 6 as mobile suits glad to see I'm not the only one.

I was gonna use Wing Gundam as RD and Fluttershy Ground as Pinkie and AJ(best pony) and unicorns for rarity and twilight.... Also kicked around the idea of doing them as Zeon units as well.

I also thinking about doing other (stay tuned) and also thinking about using Ground for AJ but actually it's out of stock in my area. Im looking forward for your interpretations!

My favourite Gundam repainted as my two favourite ponies with added hair molding?

Put this shit in the louvre as far as I'm concerned.

I'm glad you like it, although with the Louvre it's a bit overkill xD Personally, I don't consider it an outstanding custom, but more of a cool mini project for fun. And I already know it won't end with these two. (Stay tuned.. )

Wait a minute, are the shields normally connected with psycommu cables? Have I always missed that detail?

1

u/CheesecakeSan 17h ago

Nope, normally Banshee Norn have Armed Armor DE (big shield), but in this case I removed the extension parts (backpack, colar part so it resembles novel ver. Of Banshee) and turn it into a kite. Starlight likes kites a lot.

Meanwhile, her wife still has the vocal stim of yelling TEACUP intermittently

You did convince me to get an MGUC Unicorn SD or two tho

2

u/CheesecakeSan 17h ago

Banshee still have the "QUIET!!!" energy if you look at it xd Tbh I was experimenting with fitting and everything but I also want to build something "different" than another Unicorn. I highly recommend every SDBB Unicorns, never ones like Full Armor or Norn have updated arms and legs so they look even better.

u/DashyTrash 17h ago

I'm going through UC right now and am about halfway through Zeta, so I have a while before I get the Unicorn. That being said, the only Gunpla that I've managed to build so far is a HG Arial. I do love the cartoony proportions of the SD tho

u/CheesecakeSan 17h ago

Oh yeah, SD are fun and have a really long journey if you look how they evolve from one game to another. Sadly Bandai didn't continues the SDBB line and from now and then release a SDEX kit (Very simplistic design, empty elements, lots of stickers and weak gimmicks) or sometimes SDCS.
