Gundam Review: NG 1/144 XXXG-01H Heavy Arms Gundam

Good Evening Everyone!

Surprised that another review is up? Well, to keep up with the theme "Throwback Thursday", I decided to post a follow up from my previous review about the Wing Gundam which you can view here:

What we have next is the Gundam who has a lot of stuff packed in its load out. Being Piloted by the silent but calm trow Barton which is the opposite of what his Gundam can do. 

I present to you the Heavy Arms Gundam!

Gundam Review: NG 1/144 XXXG-01W Wing Gundam

Good Afternoon Everyone!

Since it's Thursday, I decided to do a throwback. I'm gonna review my old Gundam Wing kits from the 90's

Starting with the boy that wears a sando and shorts in any occasion, the silent but deadly protagonist pilot of the titular MS, Wing Gundam. The first suit from Operation Meteor that appeared in the show.

Let's admit it, we 90's kids pretty much opened our eyes to Gundam Wing as our "first" Gundam experience. Some may say Gundam X or Gundam G. I used to rush home so I can watch it in Toonami.

I've seen those too but I didn't know at the time that they're separate shows but nonetheless we were all amazed on how awesome these mechas fight and how they look so damn cool.

 Anyway, Let's get on with the review.

Gundam Review: MG 1/100 RX-78-2 Gundam ver. 2.0

Good Afternoon guys!

I should've done this a long time ago. 

I present to you the Grand daddy Gundam, all in its Master Grade glory. This is the 2.0 version which for me is one of the best kits Bandai has ever produce until the 3.0 version came out.

It's kinda weird to be into gunpla and not have any form of the RX-78. It's like a mandatory build for anybody who's into this hobby.

It doesn't matter what scale it is, it's THE Grand daddy Gundam, the one what started it all.

I build this prior to this blog but I managed to take pictures of the assembly because I really love this kit LOL.

Anyway, Let's start the review!

Good Evening everyone!

If haven't seen my previous review, click here:

Moving on! 

I present to you the kindhearted virtuous leader of the Shu army, Liu Bei!

He' the main character of the show Brave Battle warriors. He's a simple man who values respect and kindness more than anything. Liu Bei is widely known as an ideal benevolent, humane ruler who cared for his people and selected good advisers for his government.

He also shows skills in combat and was good enough to get the loyalty of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, his oath brothers. 

Here he is in the Dynasty Warriors series. He's depicted a bit younger here unlike in previous games where he looks a little older.

On with the review!

You can see Cao Cao at the back.. Maybe plotting something haha!

SD Gundam Review: BB Sangokuden #19 Shin Raiso Chohi

Good Afternoon Guys!

I hope you saw my previous review, if not click here:

Moving on... I present to you another character from the Sangokuden series, Zhang Fei! He fought along side Guan Yu and Liu Bei to rid the land of various corrupt overlords. 

He is one of the founders of the Shu Army and a blood brother to Liu Bei and Guan Yu. Unlike his 2 brothers, Zhang Fei is a very carefree happy go lucky guy.

The three met by coincidence and they believe that it was destiny that brought them together, being impressed by Liu Beis virtues, he and Guan Yu swore an oath that they will support him no matter what. 

He usually laughs at the face of battle because he enjoys the feeling especially when he's challenged. Think of him as Lu Bu but more friendly haha (Lu Bu is the demonic super warrior in their time.)

Here he is in the Dynasty Warriors series.

I got carried away with the history lesson hahaha! On with the review!

Good evening guys!

As promised, here's a new review! Also, I wanna show my hand painting skills :D

The Sangokuden line are characters based on the famous Three Kingdoms saga from china. I love the history of this epic tale. I memorized all the officers of each faction and replayed the game so much.

It's so famous a game was made after it; Dynasty Warriors. As you've guessed it, I too play that game and DW 5 is my favorite.

Anyway, I don't know about the translations of his name but I know him as Guan Yu. He is one of the High rank officers of the Shu Army (they're the good guys.) And made a blood oath to their Leader Liu Bei making him a blood brother which basically means that he's family.

He's called the "God of War" because of his overpowering strength and stamina. here he is in other representations:

You've probably seen him in some antique stores or Chinese venues. He's the guy with the long beard and uses a dragon spear his signature weapon.

Anyway, you didn't come here for a history lesson so on with the review!

Possible reviews

Good afternoon!

I just wanna show the things I currently have and what I'm planning to post :D

This is my main display cabinet, majority of my gunpla and figs are in there.

I'm still alive ver 2.0. Making a comeback.

An overdue post.

 I' sorry I let you guys down, I wasn't true to my word about what I said in my last post.

Things happen, long story short, life happened. I also returned home due to personal reasons.

Furthermore, I'll try (and I mean it this time) to revive this blog!

To be honest, I only checked the blogs status last night because it came across my mind and I got curious if it's still kicking.

Surprisingly, it's still racking up views.
