Old thread: >>5583423
I'm not sage
Do you think bandai will do another run of MG jesta cannon to go with Unicorn TV?
>>5587916
It wouldn't surprise me if they did.
>>5587916
more important question is will it be Jesta Cannon RE:96 TV version? I would joke to add 2.0 or Londo Bell Use version to make it extra unnecessarily long.
CRAWWWWWWWWLING IN MY SKIN
THESE WOUNDS WILL NEVER HEAALLL
>>5588098
this is a great example of 'just because you can doesn't mean you should'
>>5588098
If this was more simplified a bit it'd be cool.
[spoiler]I actually really enjoy edgy shit with skulls and fire but this is just shit[/spoiler]
>>5588098
it's 'these wounds, they will not hee-yull'
>>5587970
Jesta Cannon RE:96 TV Version Londo Bell Unit Use *insert name here* Custom
>>5588098
Fuck, that's so edgy I cut my finger clicking on the thumbnail.
I'm guessing this is a long shot but does anyone know about the quality of the Fujisaki Anime Masterpiece series? It's old so I'm guessing it's not great but I found some on mandarake for a decent price that look interesting.
Noob question, but are the decals that come with Real grades stickers or waterslides?
>>5588229
Stickers. They may look like waterslides but they're not.
>>5588233
Cool thanks. Was assuming they were waterslides and applying them accordingly with no problems. Just recently realised it doesn't actually specify anywhere.
>>5588242
>Was assuming they were waterslides and applying them accordingly with no problems
weak bait
Anyone knows y my matte topcoat became like this after a while ? The dust just wouldn't come off and i had to use alcohol to remove the coat entirely. Not sure what i did wrong.
>>5588265
>The dust just wouldn't come off
>Not sure what i did wrong
You let it get extremely dusty m8. You solved the riddle!
>>5588265
It's harder to clean caked dust off a matte surface because it's not smooth like bare plastic or gloss coat, you just gotta clean it more often
>>5588253
Nope. That's a thing I was doing. It works.
A while back I say I had some dino gunpla as a idea, Now I have a general build.
if there any tips for improvement please hell
proto gouf is love
is dom test type just as good?
>>5588420
So how long before someone combines the Proto-Gouf parts with the Revive Gouf?
I.E. Using the legs, shoulders, and waist parts.
>>5588285
Another person falls victim to the guide, I suggested changing this like a year ago
>>5588098
>tiny piece falls off
Here we are, the metal black grimgerde I said I would spray. (the lower leg should have been gold but I was too lazy and stopped at the black primer layer) Not to mention using the stickers for the sensor because I am a lazy hack.
Still need to spray over the parts the clip held onto as I thought it would be hidden.
IBO kits are inexpensive but the usage of a lot of plastic on plastic joints make them really stiff when posing. So that's something I don't really like about them.
>>5588420
From dalong's review, yes.
Shame about the obvious stickers though, put me off on putting them all on.
>>5588395
>building 1/100 Barbatos
>tfw I slice through my fingernail while cutting nubs
Note to self, mobile suits named after demon lords demand a blood sacrifice.
bandai why the fuck
they molded the cover for the sword in such a way that you cant even close it properly
>>5588475
wrong pic
>>5588474
Why is there at least one person that doesn't know how to use an exacto knife in every thread?
>>5588483
It's late.
>>5588484
any person who wants to be up right now is either drunk, high, or building gunpla.
>>5588474
Warning: Knives are sharp, don't point the blade at your fleshy parts unless you want to cut them
>>5588496
>tfw all three
Good lord, the PG Strike is incredible, I can't believe it is 12 years old.
I don't know if I can bring myself to paint it though. I couldn't handle it if I fucked something up.
>>5588498
>covering up the paint and glue fumes with weed
Better than a respirator tbfh
dude, weed lmao.
>>5588474
>unwillingly giving blood sacrifice
>to a false god
Seriously, use this type of blade.
Elevens are shit.
the rokusho kit is kinda ok... the articulations ain't that good
>>5588527
but atleast he looks cool
Not kits, but...
>SD BB Senshi Superior Dragon
>2000 JPY
>SDX Superior Dragon
>3500 JPY
Should I cancel my pre-order and change it to more Grazes or what?
>>5588565
Building stuff is fun
>>5588566
Right, and looking at more pictures, looks like there are actual legs and the wings are spread out. Would be a good comparison with the SDX.
Not a bad time sink. Surprised how good the G-reco kits are. Series was shit, but solid suits.
Really need to get some paints so I can step it up.
>>5588527
>>5588529
>articulation
Yeah kinda sucks. I have the Metabee, tends to fall apart easily.
Does the Rokusho kit have any special action? The metabee one fires one of it's wrist rockets. Kinda miss for no purpose.
>>5588578
I agree about the kits, disagree about the show
>>5588565
>that one on left
Devil Shredder from the TMNT anime? kek
>>5588578
They had a lot of weird and interesting designs that had potential. Sadly Hecate is never gonna happen and its that one cool suit you want as a model but never will get.

>>5588590
>that one cool suit you want as a model but never will get.
I know that feeling far too well.
>>5588589
Yes. Yes it is, kek
How much of the decals in an RG kit do you guys use? I think it looks a little busy using them all, so I'm probably gonna leave this guy as is now.
>>5588589
Neo Black Dragon, the powered up form of Satan Gundam
>>5588585
Oh god no, someone has a different option than me. Stop like things I don't like.
I dropped a bit before half way, I might give it a second chance and just marathon it.
>>5588590
>Hecate
Damn that's a nice looking machine. Would build.
>>5588596
Holy shit, haha, so many similarities. That's a great little figure there.
>>5588597
Just use the ones you think will make the kit work.
I usually only use the ones that appear in the anime, or some of the games I played.
The RGs have way too many for some kits, like you said looks busy.
>>5588578
he has spring loaded arms
the sword splits and the hammer pops out
>>5588479
hg 00 Seven sword?
Could someone link me to a good file set?
>>5588710
Tamiya file set on Amazon, generic diamond files work alright too.
>1/100 Graze Custom comes with Ground Type Parts
FUUUUUCCCCCKKK YEAHAAAHHHHHHHH
My biggest gripe with the Grazes is their foot shape. This removes that issue for me, I am so fucking hype.
Is there something you love so much that you would build every scale of it?
>inb4 RX-78-2
I've got a big box of really old, busted up Gundams that I've been trying to salvage with little luck. I'm actually considering grabbing one of the Frame Arms Girl Materia types and using the shattered remains of a mobile suit to make some sort of mecha musume shit.
I've got a Gouf with obliterated joints, a Kampfer with most of it's body crushed, and an assortment of green parts that appears to have been an SD version of something I can't identify. I thought it was a Big Zam at first, but it doesn't have any legs and there's these big pointy triangle parts on the shoulders.
What do you guys think I should go with?
Anyone here owns any Arpeggio kits? How good are they? The other thread is ded
>>5588867
00 Raiser
>>5588861
The Custom equipment is looking pretty boss as well. And it comes with the bazooka shoulders as well.
>>5588886
They are ship kits with weird decals. Have you ever built a ship?
>>5588861
I like the graze heels, but I also like the ground type graze stompy boots.
I'm going to end up with too many grazes at this rate.
>>5588893
Nope. I want them as my first ship kit
>>5588861
>>5588891
I had a feeling the Ground Type parts would be P-Bandai because I'm a pessimistic shitlord that expects Bandai to do that kind of thing with every other MS design. Glad I was sorely wrong.
>post yfw Hobby no Toriko hoards at least 4 of the swords
>>5588897
Do your research, read guides and blogs and shit or this will end it tears. They are not like gundams at all.
>>5588903
They are confirmed as coming with the regular release. Iirc the kit is called 1/100 Graze Custom/Ground Type.
There is no mention of them being P-Bandai.
>>5588886
The colors are kinda bland on this one
Finally finished my RG Justice, I really wanted the flight pack up in flight mode but it's so back heavy that I've found it impossible for it to sit up in anything but a very front heavy pose. I really think some pegs on the shoulders for the mounted cannons to slot into for more balance would have been a good idea.
>>5588891
The NG 1/100 kit comes with the custom parts?
>>5588909
it's polite to read and understand a post before replying
>>5588987
If you're the type to leave your kits in a pose you could glue it.
>>5588884
I'll buy the gouf shoulders and weapons with the kampfer head and weapons if it's an option.
>>5589125
No, sir! These mobile suits, smashed and ruined though they be, hold sentimental value. They represent a time in my life when things weren't quite so shitty and joyless.
That's why I've held onto them for so long, and why I'm considering going the mecha musume route. Can't bear to get rid of them.
>>5589134
Well said.
God bless.
>>5589138
also, please post pics, sounds like they look, how would I put this, "interesting"
>>5589048
Upcoming release in june. Will have the parts for the ground, custom, and bazooka.
Basically it will be an all around superior release to the initial 1/100 graze.
Man, I remember the times when I used to hate the shield of this thing but now I've grown to like it
>>5589160
Now buy the universal booster. Makes a great kit into an amazing one
>>5589160
I remember everyone thought the original one had a gun on it. Turned out to be nothing until it was upgraded.
>>5589160
Should finish this already so I can start working on MG freedom when it comes
>>5589160
>shield looks like a bunch of layers of plaplate stuck together
>Sei says that's what it is
I never got why it has the grey part that looks like a gun barrel even though it isn't supposed to be.
>>5589163
>Makes a great kit into an amazing one
>An amazing one
>Amazing
But the universe booster just turns it into star build strike.
>>5589160
What kit is that?
>>5589200
mg build strike, uses the rm strike frame
pretty good kit
>>5589200
If anything, the only gripes I have with this kit are the side skirt and shoulder articulations, as well as the lack of decals. Otherwise it's a really solid pick.
>>5588903
I'm guessing the Graze is pretty popular for them to just keep making variants.
>>5589141
this model easily justifies two purchases just for dual wielding sword and bazooka.
>>5589224
>inb4 best graze
>>5589238
>>5589238
Best graze to cut the bread.
>>5589141
Looking at it and how the sword is locked I have to wonder... can it actually grab it's own sword or does it need outside help?
>>5589241
is the red all stickers
>>5589238
>>5589241
>>5589254
defiantly the red on the head.
the shoulders might be plates, but I wouldn't get my hopes up.
>>5589258
hahaha holy fuck
>>5589254
Not sure about the stripe on the head, but the shoulders and the crest are stickers.
>>5589262
The Ritter and group who uses it basically gets shat on every time it appears. They're the "inexperianced group of idealistic nobles" kind of group.
Now watch as they try to challenge a bunch of pissed off child soldiers to an honorable duel.
>>5589241
I don't actually have any interest in Graze, but holy shit I want that fucking sword.
>>5589258
Is she Chinese?
>>5589281
It's hundreds to thousands of years in the future. There's no telling what she is.
Her character design is themed after a fox though. And her makeup is similar to traditional Japanese Geisha.
>>5589283
Why would a general dress like a Geisha? It's like she asking for them to fuck her up.
>>5589285
She was basically a figurehead. She's never been in an actual fight before the series.
>>5589285
She's the daughter and sole heir of one of the top 7 noble families that run the military and the division she commands is intended to be purely decorative in order to get her put of the way.
The hg ritter manual mentions different features on the machine were made specifically to be aesthetically pleasing since the ritter was supposed to be used primarily for ceramonial purposes rather than actual combat.
The main reason she keeps going after the MCs is she wants to prove her division isn't worthless.
>>5589311
Without the S&M, yeah.
You can tell there are a lot of new people because the number of Seed, IBO and 00 kits goes way up
>>5589351
And, soon, Unicorn
>>5589351
IBO designs suuuck
>>5589351
they're good kits and good designs. do you have a problem with new people getting into the hobby ?
>>5589356
I mostly agree but the Barbatos is sort of growing on me.
>>5589356
>not liking Jetsream Hyakuren
>>5589356
I dunno, they've really grown on me with time and Barbatos 6 and Astaroth are both super rad in my opinion.
>>5589356
hyakuri is the best new design since genoace
>>5589356
b-but Astaroth is good!
>tfw no 1/100 leo kit with as many options as the graze
>>5589367
stockholm syndrome
seriously if you have to stare at anything long enough you will come to like it
>>5589430
Unicorn and astray are still awful, so that's not true.
>>5589430
I'm convinced this is the only reason anyone would ever think of Gundams as good designs.
>>5589356
Not liking the chocolate flavored mech.
>>5589430
Um no, I'm still convinced that Zock is shit and deserved to blow up for its impractical design. Same with half the seed Units.
>>5589430
That's not what Stockholm Syndrome is.
Aside from grit, is there really any difference between sand papers? For example, is a 3m 400 grit automotive sandpaper sheet functionally any different from a Mr. Waterproof 400 grit sheet?
>>5589475
Some sandpaper is made for wetsanding, some is not.
>>5589430
kek. Zakus, Doms and Goufs are still shit
>>5589481
>Look at me, I'm so angsty and rebellious! I go in gunpla threads and talk shit on gunpla designs! XD
That's cool, kid.
>>5589486
Butthurt Zeke scum detected.
>>5589481
>If a man has shit taste, does he even know it?
Now we know
>>5589486
You do realize that you don't have to blindly like everything just because it's a real Gundam brand Gundam, right? Like, I fucking love Shinkis, but I'm very vocal about how much I hate Vitulus. (She reminds me of calves in veal boxes, if you're curious)
>>5589481
Can you even taste shit anymore or is it just like water to you at this point?
>>5589494
>You do realize
You do realize that when you make wild assumptions and act a fool no one takes you seriously, right?
>>5589494
Well no, saying that those designs suck is just shitposting. Theres nothing wrong with not liking a design (looking at you shambloo) and being vocal about it
>>5589509
>saying designs I like suck is shitposting
>but saying designs I don't like suck is just dandy
>pass these threads by typically
>guy at work starts building a zoid while at work (third shift, slow job)
>get interested
>always like the design of these two guys when I see them posted
>never even watched gundam
I'm about to start watching a bit of gundam so I'm atleast not disingenuous about having toys but not knowing the source material. It just seems fun. Also I got these two off Hlj because they were very cheap.
What am I in for? Anything I should know? This will be my first time building, I'm already googling painted techniques, and the GF already has micron pens. Very excited.
>>5589513
>Saying "a thing sucks" is shitposting
>Saying "I don't like a thing" is just dandy
FTFY champ.
>>5589514
The Gouf isn't very poseable but it looks really good. The Z'Gok is great for being 17 years old.
>>5589514
Wait for the Revival Gouf coming out later this month. Also, Z'Gok is a fun build for an old kit and I'd recommend getting the Zogok to go along with it, too.
>>5589536
Since I'm new to all this, what does revival bring? Better overall build? or just a few changes? Right now I was just going to grab this gouf since he is only 6 dollars. Maybe I can get the new one when it comes out and use the old one for paint practice?
Also
>don't know who zogok is
>look him up
>fucking love his look
Thanks dick, now I have to get him
>>5589548
zogok is a great kit
>>5589548
The Revival Gouf is better in every way, from posability, build quality, and the way the pieces fit together.
>use the old one for paint practice
That's a good idea. Get the old one anyways.
>>fucking love his look
Damn right.
>>5589548
Should also take a look at the Z'gok Experiment.
Stuff came. It'll be a busy week I guess.
>>5589526
It can do a hand/claw stand!
>>5589570
WitP has some of the best designs
>>5589570
That was actually my first choice as far as Zgoks go, but quite a few reviews said his arm posability is left wanting, and the arms tend to fall off as well
>>5589572
>rg and hg
>week
3 days at most, even with doing it properly and painting
>but muh weather
>muh work only have 3 hours to do it
it'll still be cumulative at most 72 hours.
>>5589591
Who shit in your cheerios today?
>>5589494
So you're the one that keeps posting that shit about veal calves. You know she's just a cow right. The veal shit is just you.
>>5589362
Hyakuri is a decent design, though it doesn't feel... Gundamy(?) enough to me. Like I could see it being from a different property. Guison is dope though, I forgot about that one.
>>5589514
Holy shit are you me? My story is the same as yours, I kept seeing these threads & eventually caved, ordering the exact same two kits! The only difference being my Z'gok was red (blue was sold out at the time & I was impatient). & I started watching 0079, too, so as not to be a fucking hack. Awesome. You're gonna enjoy yourself, it's a very fulfilling hobby!
>>5589610
Psst
You should get a Zogok if you haven't already
>>5589611
I haven't, but I bookmarked it & a few other variations a while back. I'm a few months into the hobby but for the time being I've just been going through the main kits from 0079 & some SD's I like.
So question. Why are fire based weapons so rare to see in the Gundam Universe? I can imagine it having some really horrible effects on enemy suits.
>>5589610
We shall take this journey together
>>5589611
You are encouraging a future addiction, and I don't really mind. Very excited.
>>5589627
Because great deal of it takes place in space.
>>5589627
Because beams
Finally got around to finishing this fat fuck.
>>5589637
>>5589627
Given the insanely high melting point of armor and the only benefit would be if you got lucky enough to over heat their systems, it's not worth the risk of range.
Fire is far too close of a range compared to beams and such. Hell even a javelin usually has longer range in Gundam.
BTW, anyone got Cathedral Gundam lineart?
>>5589627
>not as versatile as heat blades or beams
>not as precise as welding torches
>not effective in space
>MS are built to withstand temperature extremes
>napalm exists
>>5589632
Throw a Tamiya design knife in there.
>>5589641
>welding torches
You mean beam rifles.
>>5589170
Have you finished the show?
If you forgot the shield can absorb beam shots and the tube can be connected to the rifle to transfer the energy.
>>5589650
>context is Build Strike Full Package
>hurr durr have you not seen Star Build Strike
Way to go, fellow autist.
>>5589650
Wrong Build Strike, idiot.
>>5589650
Have you forgotten about the first half where Sei and Reiji didn't need to resort to particle hacks?
>>5589627
Too much effort to animate good flames
>>5589627
Leg mounted flamethrowers to commit war crimes with?
Newbie here buying the zgok and others.
I have these little terran marines I got from the blizzard store for 10 dollars. Don't really care for them or have use for them, so figured I'd use them to practice panel detailing for the first time! Looks pretty shitty, but thats the point of practice and it being the first time and everything. Also I rushed a bit and the grooves on these are fucking tiny.
>>5589717
You should try brush pens. The ink gets in the grooves a lot easier. Also, you could do some sickass brush drawings/writing in your spare time.
>>5589713
Gatling guns are good enough. (See stargazer's slaughter daggers)
Unless you want to go the extra mile.
>>5589717
No don't do it.
Buy GN-X instead
>>5589356
Fuck you kid, Graze Ein is basically Graze in Steroids. I really like it.
>>5589627
Uh, like what?
>>5589359
>Good designs but lack of accessories.
Still shit man.
>>5589758
Like the firenut grenades that conroy uses for his jegan.
>>5589627
It doesnt make sense for it in the main seriee since most suits can withstand orbital re-entry. However in gbf it is used since its kids with toys that can go full retard
Drybrushing has started. Oil washes and a rust set up will help knock down most of it.
>>5589632
My journey started last year, but I'm with you in spirit! Look forward to seeing pictures. Good luck!
>>5588463
Don't feel bad, I like using foil stickers for eyes too.
Bargain sale is on at HS, some cheap wave plaplate among other shit.
>>5589958
ehhh, only want to get Bigri Komajiro for my niece and maybe Rodimus.
Oh well.
Just need to think of a color scheme for the cannon and sword before I top coat and call this guy finished. Thankfully I didn't completely fuck up the inner frame this time around.
>>5590067
and bonus parts I'll probably never use again!
>>5590067

Here's something fun /toy/.
>Open paint and dalong.net
>Every time you see a kit you own copy the small image and paste it in paint
>Cry at how much you have spent
I am at 60 and counting. Hold me.
>>5590234
Im at like 40+ or something. Shits hard not to splerge on
>>5590234
why is paint and dalong necessary for this? why can't i just look at my collection to realize how many i've bought?
>>5590234
I'm at around the same mark. Started making them back around the 98-99 mark cause a couple of hobby shops had them around and I liked mecha more than tanks. When I graduated High school in 04 I gave them all to my friend as I had no real space to put them anywhere.
Finally got back into it a couple of years ago, feels good man, its nice to knock out a project in like a week or so. I'm starting to get to the same amount I had before, probably either need to put some away as I've gotten my airbrush skills a bit better. Oh well.
gouf chan kawaii!
>>5590269
I know, what about us Macfags? Do we have to use our Adobe programs?
>>5590351
No, it has to be paint you filthy fucking casual.
>>5588861
I like how those new thigh pieces help fill out that area and make it appear as though the hips are placed slightly lower...it helps reduce the tiny torso-long legs Katoki sensation I used to get from Grazes. Basically, this kit is now perfection for me and I'm gonna happily buy it.
>>5590372
They look like gun holsters so I want to give it some revolvers.
Anyone here able to help me translate this instruction manual please? :)
>>5590368
>>5590382
What kit is that? Also you don't really need to know what it's saying, just cut the pieces out and put them together as shown.
Anyone know anything about the gunpla competitions? Specifically the one that's coming to New York Comic Con in October?
I'm basically looking for a website with rules and when to enter by. Anyone know?

If the par number says B1-5, look for B1 and part number 5
>second panel
when snipping the part off the attachment point which connects to the runner, dont cut it clean on the model to allow a little breathing space for those parts to take the stress when you snip other parts
Then snip them clean off once the parts are fully free from the runners (this will help avoid white stress marks and warping)
>Third panel
Make sure to snip just the sprue attachment off flush with the part, be careful to identify which is the sprue attachment and which is the part.

Thanks man! :D

You'll be fine, they're literally meant to be done with the pictures. Anything odd will have extra pictures.

The NYCC competition is part of the gunpla builders world cup. A link to the rules can be found on the bluefin distribution website.
>>5590465
Does that mean it's not open to anyone participating?
>>5590468
The nycc one is open to anyone who can show up with a kit at the event. Gbwc events in the US are in the regional stages until the last con sometime in the fall, then the winners of all the regionals are compared and one is picked to go to Japan and represent the US.
Seriously, just read the page.
>>5590486
ok thanks anon, looking it up now
>>5590378
I like this idea. I might swap the pods out for the 1/100 Dynames gun holsters.
>normie friends into gunpla
this is also the man who asked if the destiny was "a wing gundam" and was genuinely upset that the HG unicorn didn't have a transformation gimmick or a means of showing off the other form. He did not realize that they made kits of Unicorn and Destroy modes. He gets his Gundam information from Amazon product review. I helped him out once by linking him to a deal on a P-Bandai kit on the BST.

jesus christ that was painful on both sides
>>5590654
You honestly just sound like a dick.
>>5590654
You sound like a dick anon.
>>5590741
>not allowed to bullshit your pals
what are you a shounen protagonist or something?
>>5590654
You act as if you absolutely don't want this guy getting in to gunpla at all.
Every one of those questions could have been answered with less effort by simply not trying to act standoffish.
>>5590748
This guy already has five kits including a fully-painted one under his belt, though.
>>5590750
>hey man can you tell what I need to do at all times
>and then keep your eye out and buy a kit on me on 4chan because I'm too lazy to do it myself
>no
>"wow this guy's a dick wow"
You people are retarded.
>>5590753
Are any of them from before 1995, though?
>>5590765
The oldest one he has is the fully painted one, the old Heavyarms Custom. Not sure what year it came out.
>>5590772
The 1/100 came out in '97, while the 1/144 came out in '98.
>>5590778
'98, then. So no.
>>5590763
If some of my friends asked me to do something which was in fact a simple task, but they were afraid of doing it because they had no prior experience or knowledge, I would tell them how to do it to prevent a future case where they relied on me to do simple task for them.
This anon, however, just sprouts meaningless jargon and passive aggressive answers which are not clear enough to signal an actual change in the other persons behaviour, but instead, forces them to rely on you more since he provided literally less than nothing.
Let me demonstrate:
>hey man, can you build me a computer? I have never done it before and it looks pretty complicated.
>I'm not going to help you
>Why not?
>git gud
>>5590780
Okay. Just wanted to know.
>>5590781
>context
I've told him how to get to dalong, he follows gunpla blogs, he knows what HobbySearch is. I'm the one who taught him how to build gunpla in the first place.
>>5590782
I'll give him credit where credit's due, the kits he picks out are usually pretty high-quality. That one in particular was an impulse buy on his part since we were at our LHS and it was like, $15.
>reading any post about social bullshit
>continuing to talk about it
PART OF THE PROBLEM
Don't know where the star is. For a 2001 kit this wasn't really bad.
>>5588463
That's a Flag, wasn't it?
I fucking love Flag.
>>5588861
>>5590372
Graze Arbalest color scheme, when?
Going to pick up some HGs to practice on soon so I don't fuck up kits that I really care about. The guide says that the X is good, but what about the X Maoh? I like it slightly more because of the lavender and cannon position.
[spoiler]Also why was 00 HG removed from the list?[/spoiler]
>>5591069
Getting harder to find for $10. And X-Maoh is fine.
>>5590234
>60
I'd say how much I have but I'd just sound like a show off / loser with no life.
Not to say that I'm not both of those already.
>>5591073
If I take good comparison pics will you update the decals section of the guide so we can stop getting people trying to waterslide their RG stickers, it's pretty sad
