Gundam Discussion - Twilight Axis

This showed up at my door today.

^ Would you send it to me if I gave you my address? @_@

Joking aside. I just bought a HG Build Strike Gundam Full Package two weeks ago. Do you think they'll release a Star Build Strike too, or just the extra parts to modify the Build Strike?

[Serra]

There's already a kit in the works:

Presumably the wings will be updated to not be pink in the final product.. I don't imagine they'll release the fighter separately, but I haven't looked into any Build Fighter kits to see if they're offering any of the parts separately. I know the idea behind the series is interchangeability, but Bandai makes more money forcing people to buy full kits..

Edit: nvm, ignore what I said above. Looks like they sell the original booster separately, so they'll probably sell the new one separately as well:

In other news.. shipping on the Sazabi was brutal as expected -- was like $45 @.@;

That's insane EMS on that Wing Zero was only $31.

Just started watching Build Fighters and wow it's awesome.

[Serra]

I'm really thinking of ordering an MG Tallgeese just for the backpack to add on to the Sazabi. For a Char suit, the Sazabi's backpack has always been such a disappointment, but at the same time, paying ~$40 just for thrusters seems kinda silly... Could find a use for the shield and rifle, probably.. Those shoulder hinges could work out nice.

Spoiler: show

gonna be awesome if that giant Zaku is just a perfect grade fighting a bunch of high grades. Been annoyed that the different scales have been untouched this whole time

[Serra]

This series is great. The characters are just perfect.

Some straight up Gundam Breaker now

Build Fighters speculation

Spoiler: show

Am I the only one that thinks that Ral is the one who beat Sei's dad in the world tournament back in the day? I'm getting an old master who's moved past fighting vibe from him.

[Serra]

I thought Sei's dad won first place?

[Pharaun]

I went back and doubled checked and his Dad was second place.

[Serra]

Ah, ok. Thanks~

I watched the episode again, and since 90 people are entering the battle royal, I guess that means the people who lost in the early rounds don't get to stick around for the later rounds. But that means the points from these first two rounds are pointless. But Cziommer was using a different gunpla this time around (unless his Gelgoog is inside the Gaw..), so people aren't restricted to only one gunpla, so it seems if someone made it to the tournament, they should be eligible for the first 8 rounds.. This tournament is very odd.

The more we see of the tournament though, one thing I dislike is that there are so many people who (at most) are only doing custom color schemes. I wish more than just the main characters had customized kits. And on that note, an Aries?? Who would bring one of those to a world tournament??

So, after sitting in customs for 6 days, then not updating after leaving Chicago, this arrived today!

Just in time for mediocre bowl games!

To be fair, it is your fault for actually liking collegiate sports. lol

[Mrbeansman]

Finished the Build of that Wing Zero PG. I knew that kit had alot of screws but I never imagined just about every part of the inner skeleton would be held together with screws.

Also on a off topic note Edelweiss you still play 14? All of my friends quit before I came back and now I'm considering going to Midgar.

[Edelweiss]

I do, daily. It's been difficult to consistently reach Turn 5 (and actually do anything) because people flake out on us (besides the core of 5 people). There's some decent FCs here.

Also Tower is a bag of fucking shit-coated dicks and I hate the fact it has an excellent general theme and design, marred by random retards.

On topic: MG Crossbone X-3 should be shipping out late next week. If only we could get some fucking Jovian MS now.

[Insanecyclone]

Rifle Discharge is some fucking SRW attack, god damn
