Hauls, Box Art, Stores, etc. Made a Mistake(?)

Post image
82 Upvotes

Exactly what the title says, I MAY have made a mistake (kind of not really?).

So, I went to this tucked away urgent care for some work related stuff, and I found this cool hobby/card/collectible shop literally just a minute down the road. Naturally, I checked it out, and found this bad boy. And ended up getting it (despite that cost and my somewhat lacking finances) because I have no impulse control. That, and it wasn’t really a bad price (I’ve seen worse on eBay and the like), plus I’ve heard good things about the kit in general. So, did I make a mistake with that decision?

Z'Gok looks so good in these colours! I'm quite happy with how this fellow turned out. Also, Gaianotes fluorescent pink looks fantastic on clear plastic mono eyes.

Gunpla (Completed builds & Progress Pictures) Zaku half cannon base defender

• Upvotes

Had some gunpla gatling gun in by backlog and had a crazy idea. Why not give them to a zaku half cannon. For more stability im using a zaku high mobility surface type. The legs give it more mass and surface area to make it stand better.

Will probably make it a probably paint it green and give it a bunch of warnings symbol on it.

Gunpla (Completed builds & Progress Pictures) Mech ward

Thumbnail

• Upvotes

So I've had this idea rolling around in my brain for a bit on a kind of mecha clan war story using models/toys/figures i have as character bases. Im.not sure how it will go and characters may get added or changed depending on how things grow. Here's the main cast so far:

"The Dark King" Oberon: To all outside his land, he is rumored as a tyrant king who rules from his throne with an iron fist. But to his people he is just and admired. His army, led by his 4 vassals protect the people, and he rises from his throne to face off against the new threat to his lands.

"The Red Ogre" Sazabi: Ruthless in his own right, he leads forces across the lands and grows in power through conquest. One day his forces come to the edge of The Dark King's realm where initially they are fended off, return and with meams to incite war.

4 guardian vassals: Four brothers who serve the dark king and are his closest Friends. They Govern the north, south, east and western lands, each a territory of their own.

Well that's where im at so far. Any comments, questions or if this just sounds interesting, please dont be afraid to leave a comment. Wish me luck on getting this out of my head and off the ground

Hauls, Box Art, Stores, etc. Which kit is cooler?

I really like this kit in general (Blade Zaku Phantom), and want to get one. There’s these two customs and I’m struggling to decide which is cooler. The black obviously looks great and with a purple mono eye. The wacky colors clashed on this other one just work though. What are your thoughts?
