GN Full Saber get?

Semi Old news at this point, but still awesome. Coming out in the February Issue of Hobby Japan,which releases in December is the add-on kit for the HG 1/144 Gundam 00 Quanta model kit, GN full saber. The full saber isn't part of the main story necessarily, but is experimental weaponry presented in Gundam 00V(side story).

The Gundam 00 7Swords looked appealing, but I just never got around to getting it. I like the overall look of 00 Qan, but not ,omg gotta have it asap vibes. This though? HELLS YES. I enjoyed my xn sword pack kit and this thing has clear green parts. So gotta have. Is the GN full saber on your GET list?

Gundam 00 Qan(T) Full Saber

Feb issue of Hobby Japan

Price: 1390 yen

Release Date: Late December

March 21, 2010 - Update and Loot!

So work has been hell lately. Both of them. And now things seem to be slowing down. Hours at the comic shop are low this week(no idea if thats good or neccessary bad) and vending pulls have been CACA lately.

Hopefully, I can get the vend back on track. As for the shop, as long as it can be stable, I'll adapt and adjust. Its what I do. Anything else would cause and bring unneccessary attention to myself(and thats sorta not my policy). Buuuuutttt, with the extra time off - I can maybe get my crap together and play catch up. That means proper sleeping habits, normalizing the spending(meaning I now gotta be like a normal person and go back to budgeting my money and not splurging every week-boo.), catching up on shows(both anime or otherwise), gunpla work, plasmo work, AF custom work, vid sub/encode/edit work, working out, etc. As it seems, I have quite a bit to catch up on.

Well, first things first, lets do a loot post^^. The last 2 months have been nice on me, but sad for the wallet.( I think its still acting like a little B#$%^ and sobbing quietly in the corner.what a punk wallet. :p) I've procured a few things here and there, but I won't have this level of lootage anymore since I gotta budget. This time's loot includes-

The Iron man 2 AF's. Mark I(comic series), Deep Sea Armor(concept Armor series), Hypervelocity-stealth armor(concept armor series), Mark V-suitcase armor(Movie Series)

Mark III(movie series), and Iron Monger(movie series)

War Machine(comic series), Mark IV(movie series), Power Assault Armor(concept Armor series), Mark I(movie series)

Mark VI(movie series), and War Machine(movie series)

My wannabe hall of armors,heh.

Plus a custom Movie accurate Mark VI with articulated torso and led lit arc reactor made from a light up mark VI( but for some reason, it lights up with a red led.)

And of course, the "holy trinity." Classic Thor(Marvel Universe), Ultimate Capt. America(Marvel Universe), and Classic Iron Man(Comic series)

And lets not forget about the imported goods....

Revoltech Eva 2.0 unit-01(top left), Revoltech Eva 2.0 unit-01 awakened(left middle), Revoltech ARX-7 Arbalest(bottom left), 1/144 HG Gundam Nataku(middle), 1/144 HG Gouf Flight Type(middle bottom)

1/100 MG Gundam Astray Red Frame Kai( big box on left), 1/144 HG Force Impulse Gundam(Top Right), 1/144 HG Gundam Astray Red Frame(bottom right)

God of War III - Ultimate edition(the awesome looking box.for a game. so rad^^)

Another Gundam 00 Celestial Being action base(left), Macross Frontier SMS action base(bottom middle), Regular Black Action base 1(bottom right)

Ghost in the Shell 2.0 Bluray & Evangelion 1.11 - you are (not) alone.( both were on sale on amazon.too good a deal to pass up!)

B-club 1/100 Red Frame Manipulator set 1(left) and B-club 1/144 freedom gundam manipulator set(right). gonna use the freedom set for custom work on 1/144 red frame.

Wonder why the hell I'm showing my codes geass knightmare frame model kits? I have a reason. And a question.MG red frame comes with aweful puke yellow "gold parts."Its for the hilt and the end handle piece of its katanas. I'm gonna do a gold paint treatment to improve the puke yellow. Below are 2 kits that use 2 different gold styles. I will use one. Thats where I'd like some help.

First is the Lancelot. This was done with Tamiya Gold leaf spray.

This will be potential treatment #1

Next up is the Gurren mk II. The knife had silver with clear yellow done to it.

This is potential treatment #2.

So thats my update. and my loot post. Now I'm off to do a vid, then its off to finish the XN raiser since I have the proper paint now. Any help picking a gold for the red frame's katana gold parts paint treatments would be greatly appreciated. You can leave a comment from the post or you can drop your thoughts in the Chat box. Thanks. Later people.

P.S. - When I get some time, I will be doing a massive food post. I recently had a curry week.(more like curry 2 1/2 weeks.)Lots of curry related foods. Anticipate!

January 16, 2010 - Gunpla/Plasmo Project Status

So I don't quite have all the extra pieces yet for my upcoming projects, but almost got em all. Just need a few add-on parts. Still quite a few kits to do, but I'm kinda glad "the mountain" is slowly being picked off on. Its taken some restraints, but I managed to not buy more kits. I've been saving up to pay off some credit cards and to save for a big financial goal in the later half of the year so I can't splurge all the time anymore. A kit every once in a while is ok, but not 1 every sunday for 7 weeks straight! For now, I'll settle for finishing up these kits...then maybe I'm buy a new one.maybe. ;)

The "stack" or whats left of it anyway.

I bought this when it was released. I still want the armored version. I can't believe I finished the linebarrel before this.

Hehe, unicorn base. I can't wait to start on my special project with it...

Not shown with it, but these 2 are for my 00 XN raiser project.

One CB base for cool base project and one 00 raiser for test type for experiment project.

No fancy extras here, its already awesome. Just a normal build. well, maybe I'll try weathering on this one.maybe. very cool and "loaded" kit. Would totally recommend to others to try out.

January 12, 2010 - Late Christmas/New years loot.bickity BAM!

So I didn't get too many gifts around christmas time, but I did continue to build up on mi loot all the way through new years. Even got a few things I didn't intend on. I'm more than satisfied. And that does it for my first loot post. What did everyone else on the interwebs get from the holiday season?(gift or self-gifting)

YAY,stuff.

YAY, stuff at slightly lower angle.

Finally got a fraggin tripod for the cam. Had to borrow a friend's cam for the pic. thought it'd be odd just snapping pics a tripod by itself ^^. Also got 2 new bases for some special projects,hehe.

RX-79G ground war set(great kit and comes very loaded) & my new HDD and enclosure. I bought it on sale on a whim, but now my ps3 is packin a 500GB drive and I have an extra 160gb external drive at my disposal,mwahahahaha.

One very much need phone upgrade. The motorola Cliq. Very nice android phone. CACA cam though. 5mp, but no good cam app so it doesn't focus. suckfest. and next to that is an Evangelion "pub mirror"(frame shiny shiny cel pic thing). I finally got around to seeing the series to see what all the whoopla is all about. Despite some major "WTF???!" moments, I enjoyed it and now want an eva revoltech.

And of course there's the 360 elite. I already have an original 60gb ps3(well, now its a 500 gb backwards compatible monster{>_<}!!) so I wonder if I'll be playing favorites with my consoles now?? That and I'm happy to get a hobby mag. total loot scorage.

P.S.-Shinji, you're one messed up @#$*&^.jeez. But your mom,err,eva,err,mech is pure win.

January 12, 2010 - A little old, a little new.

So I'm in the midst of reorganizing a few things( namely- everything). I finally got another moment to "breathe" this month. Work and everything in between has been readjusting as per standard after holidays manner so I thought I'd recap on my recent finish models: the RX 78-2 G30th anniversary edition & the 0 gundam.

I thought it'd be cool to have a bit of a contrast of the original gundam and the obviously design inspired counterpart. I did a vid review of it already, but I forgot to snap some "review-style" pics and I've already packed them both away to make room for the next project.

These few pics will have to do for showing both in action. Oh yeah, I finally got around to gettin a frickin tripod. Its just a desktop type, but it was practically free so woot. So no more blurry photos!(well, at least less. the camera got a tripod, but its still got the same photographer, heh) And later when I have some time, I'll start linking and adding a vid section for my review n' stuff. As for the 78 and the 0? get em. go now. and while you're at it, but me another one since they're so good and simple kits. thats it for now. later til later.

p.s.- Bayonetta has a pimp? bahahahahaha, priceless.

Oct. 27, 2009 - Gundam 00 movie teaser trailer finally shows up...
