Gundam Review: HGUC 1/144 RX-78-2 Ver. G30th

Good afternoon guys!

So I said in my previous post that my HGUC 1/144 Unicorn Gundam is my last kit in the UC era... Well.... I lied XD

This is technically my first UC kit and my first RX-78-2 gundam that I got in my gunpla hobby run. I got him because the box art got my attention and also because I didn't  know there was an older HGUC variant.

My first HGUC kit and my 3rd oldest kit in my collection, it comes after my NG 1/144 Deathscythe Gundam and HG 1/144 Strike Noir Gundam.

After I built my Strike Noir, I can't help myself but to look for another kit I can build. Early gunpla builders can relate when you're just new into the hobby and the "poison" slowly consumes you.. LOL!

It's a fun hobby don't get me wrong that's why I can't contain myself from buying new kits even if I just built one.

Anyway, let's get on with the review!

Gundam review: HGUC 1/144 MSZ-006 Zeta Gundam

Good Afternoon guys!

A very hot afternoon here in the Philippines and despite the blazing glare of the sun, I still managed to make this post.

One electric fan isn't enough to lessen the rooms humidity... Well, what to do.

Anyway! What I have for you today is one of the first MS Gundam to ever have a transforming mechanism. Designed by Kamille Bidan (Yes, that's a mans name.) using an old Gundam RX-179 MK.II as his base frame. 

Kamille is very talented individual for his young age both in written and practical aspects. He's also Newtype, a rare type of individual with heightened senses compared to an ordinary human being. A Newtype is basically the next step in human evolution and often occurs in beings living in space. 

Let's get on with the review!

Gundam Review: NG 1/144 XXXG-01D Gundam Deathscythe

Good Morning Everyone!

It's raining non stop here and It's the 1st of November, a day for our departed loved ones. A day where we honor the fallen and to remember the times they are with us.

With this in mind, I decided to make a review about a Gundam that revolves around the concept of death.

But I don't want to be too dramatic about it. 

Piloted by Duo Maxwell, the total opposite of Heero Yuy because he's very loud and eccentric. The Gundam that gives you a date with your maker if seen because you won't live to tell the tale, Gundam Deathscythe!

This will be a simple review since it's really close to the Heavyarms in terms of assembly and poseability.

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.
