No, he keeps buying kits and posting pictures of them after he shoddily snaps all the pieces together. Sometimes he posts random gunpla off google images and gives them the most clever filenames a 12 year old can come up with.

>>14283229
About 5 dollars. They don't want filthy gaijin buying their shit

You can either not paint kits and have fun posing them

or

Paint them and never ever pose them to prevent paint from scratching off.

fuck.

>>14283277

If you paint and topcoat your stuff properly, posing ain't a problem.

>>14283253
It's nothing, that's like spare change compared to the price of the orders I put in, where I'm already ready to put down ~150 for the order and ~40 for shipping.
Always go big sons, because then you won't need a new kit for MONTHS unless you lose control and build a backlog castle, in which case RIP

You know I always give people shit about getting the SDs but I saw one knight one that looked cool (no stupid goo goo eyes) but dunno what its called. it was shiny silver. Also what are the ones, like the EX called that have the mini version but also can be built into the full, big boy version?

this is the only one i've built yet, so i dont have much to compare it to, but it was decent, probably good for its age.

waist joints are weird and tight, the rest of them are weird and floppy

seams are in weird spots and details are generally a bit blurry but thats to be expected on an old no grade i guess

i hope anything from the turn a series at least gets an re/100 some day ;_;

>>14283627
That looks kinda neat as is, what are you going to do with it?

>>14283703
>i hope anything from the turn a series at least gets an re/100 some day ;_;
I think Turn A stuff, particularly the sumo, would be absolutely perfect for that line. I'd say we'll get something someday.

>>14283819
You did well. I did a V-dash not too long ago and didn't enjoy the build much.

Very back-heavy when complete, too.

>>14283819
To each his own.

I personally think the Stamen only looks good when attached to the Orchis.

Can anyone think of a cool colour scheme for the duel gundam without the assault shroud for the moment.

I was gonna start painting this weekend

Does anyone have a Powered GM Cardigan lineart?

>>14283240

which rifle is longer, the zudah anti ship rifle or the zaku 2 origin anti ship rifle? I have a feeling that the Zudahs is the longest of the two but Im not to sure.

>>14284108
Zudah is plenty longer

>>14283859
Thanks man, i can build it with much confidence now. Since it'll be my first Gundam for many years after building Zakus so much, to balance the force.

maybe i will change the head to GM, make it a experimental MA corps super Jim

>>14283875
Yeah it kinda feel incomplete, but the model remind me of AC4 white glint a bit.

>>14283747

i want to try to fix the seams and paint it a nice gold :9

also resin cast the heat fan sos that i can have one heated and one unheated

and a head led!

so what are the next p bandai we can expect?
-HGUC Crossbone X3
-RE/100 Efreet(vanilla)
-RE/100 Green Bawoo

>>14284268
If my theory is right possibly msd origin waterproof Gundam.

>>14284309
looking at the runners Bandai certainly planned for it

>>14284268

Revive GM fucking please
I wanted it to be a regular release but I feel less and less that they'd do it
but they can reuse pretty much most of the revive gundam parts so why don't they just FUCKING DO IT AHRHGHHH
Also should I buy the GM Quel or GM Custom?

>>14284315
Certainly as they are basically the exact same suit except for a few parts here and there.

Bandai could have had a Revive GM based off of the Revive RX-78-2, but that is never going to happen

>>14284322
Revive OYW stuff is guaranteed to be normal releases, GM should be soon

Zakus will have to wait because of the Origin Vers

>>14284330
Thank you anon, your words give me hope

Knowing Bandai though, they'll make a Zaku revive before a GM revive even though we've already gotten fucking too many Zakus

Since now we know why we got the HGUC ZII(for the Try OVA)

What other weird HG releases should be appearing in the BF OVAs? A custom Airmaster, Z Plus?

>>14284346
>No HGAW Gundam Leopard
>Closest we'll get is HGBF Leopard Da Vinci

Revive Zaku II and GM will be immediate purchases for me. I refresh gundam guy every day with adblock on because fuck that guy hoping for news

>>14284384
gundamguy is for losers

>>14284346
Come to think of it...the ZII really came out of left field. Why didn't it get a RE 100 instead?

>>14284406
>ordering from a chinese shop

lol. Never again.

The Revive MKII, Freedom and Qubeley are for sure for Sei and Ayla customs for the BF OVA

The HGUC F91 and Double X also had runner switches but so far got nothing, could very well be upgrades for Julian and Mao

A custom Victory type Gundam perhaps?>>14284442

>>14284453
There will also probably be a Honoo Impulse followed by the Sword Impulse. They're not going to let that sweet sweet Naoki design go to waste.

Do you like dark blue and big calves or baby blue and pointy shoulders? Can't go wrong with either, or both.

Anyway, the Custom is solid like a brick, it holds up real well, though it's a bit bland looking out of the box.

>>14284459
There is a Impulse Honoo?

>>14284749
Sunrise really needs to market and localize more of its Gundam stuff. Star Wars might have gone downhill for a long time, but it's still largely known worldwide and its cheap plastic merchandise is pushed out the wazoo everywhere when a new movie is dumped out. The brand name is that big and invincible. The cash flow is just guaranteed.
Is Star Wars better because of its sales, regardless of the quality of the material? It could be arguable, though on that note I wish Bandai/Sunrise wouldn't cloister themselves so much. They need to get the brand name out there so dumb western gaijin like me can enjoy all the cool things they don't normally localize.

is there a place where i can find a list of every p-Bandai kit made?

Question about handbrushing, when you intend to paint with multiple coats is the paint just supposed to be translucent, almost runny?

Quel is older and based on the Hazels. Custom is slightly newer and has different construction, closer to GM Type C. Even the slots for backpack are different, despite their similar look.
Quel like the Hazels has this stupid plastic-on-plastic arm rotation that wear easily. Custom has more traditional but much better peg-on-polycap design. And I'm not sure if the hands are better in Custom, as the Hazels and Quel hands are super shitty.

Jegan Ecoas or Stark Jegan?

>>14284996
Haha, I asked this same question a few days ago.

ECOAS.

>>14284259
Please post pics of the process. I just ordered the kit myself and it will be my first 'big' project so maybe seeing your work can prevent me from messing up.

>>14284877
Pretty much the consistency of milk

It should take about 5 or so layers to get a good even coating of paint with a primed part for accurate colour

Harute final battle parts

>>14285196
How about the Messala's wing binders? You could use the grenade launchers as well to bulk up the suit a bit.

>>14284525
Color doesn't really matter since I'll be painting it in standard GM colors but thanks, I was wondering which kit would be more solid, and that Custom is looking pretty damn good.

>>14284892
If the Quel is based on the Hazels then that makes my decision a lot easier. The Hazel's arms and hands are complete garbage. Thanks for letting me know and saving me the frustration, looks like I'm getting the custom.

I only see green led units and a 3rd party white unit (on amazon)

Do i have to use shitty green for my mg rx78-2?

>>14285667
Can you use ebay? Do a search for queen mg rx 78 to find a bootleg accessory pack that includes a yellow led, or just look around there period.

anyone here painted the v part of the crotch of efsf suits with gundam markers? im gonna be painting the gundam revive specifically will it require priming or is it fine to paint it straight to bare plastic

>>14285788
With gundam markers? It'll stick on, though you'll need some masking tape otherwise it'll get everywhere you don't want paint. Press the marker tip into a small tray, let the paint pool out a little, then use a small brush to paint the V symbol.

Though if you don't want to deal with that(or screw up tremendously like I did), you could file it off or paint the whole section.

Is there a generally agreed upon consensus for the best way to paint your Gundams? Is airbrush > spraypaint > enamel mostly right or is it purely a matter of preference?

>>14285838
How's the Alex? Is that 1/144?

>>14285859
HG 1/144. It's old engineering, but it doesn't fall to pieces. Lots of surface details to paint. The chobam armor around the chest can be a little loose, but overall the biggest downsides are the default hands it comes with and the elbow joints. Not much for dynamic poses with the rifle due to the nature of the stock hands. I swapped out its hands for an HD set, which fit around the rifle handle really well, and gave a little more room to pose the gun with.

It's solid and you'll have plenty to work on with it, but if you're used to the engineering of newer kits it could be a bit of a letdown in terms of articulation.

If I dubbed over Prime92's videos, would anyone watch that?

>>14285847
Airbrush with lacquers will yield the cleanest and most durable results.

Does anyone have any experience with the refined barzam parts for the RG MK II? They look really sweet but do they limit articulation in any way?
How well do they snap into place?
The only barzam kit readily available aside, is it worth the trouble/money?

You do realize you're basically the anthony burch of /m/ right?

>>14286974
There was a ZakuAurelius video where he referred to prime92 as "her".

>>14286993
that isn't really proof since we can't assume that ZakuAurelius and prime92 have talked

I'm really starting to dislike ZakuAurelius' vids as of late though, they used to be pretty good and now its just run of the mill review after review which is a bit boring. Some of the videos of him doing things in Japan are a bit obnoxious too especially when he breaks rules and just shrugs it off.

So I'm sanding down my nubs and I noticed how much plastic dust there is in the air. Should I wear some kind of face mask or something? Is it safe for my lungs to breath in all this plastic dust?

>>14285728
Ahaha cannot deny that even a bit. Yes it quite dissapointing but, what the hell, its 2001 box i pick from garage sell.

And honestly, it look quite good, good detail and all. But yeah, the articulation is rather lacking, and the atm need alot of work to get it in the place. Eh not much loss for 15$ old kit.

>>14287016
Use wet or dry sandpaper and put some water on it. That'll catch a lot of the dust.

>>14287001
I get what you're saying but I don't think hes a bad reviewer. At least his reviews are pretty succinct and he doesn't ramble or mouthbreathe into the mic. What about the old videos is missing lately? I just subbed a few weeks ago.

The skateboarding "thuglife" thing by the 1:1 gundam was a little obnoxious but I can't pretend I wouldn't do it too.
I'm actually glad he went back into mandrake to film after the guy kicked him out, that would've been a boring video if he didn't and a lot of these nip shop owners don't let you film even if you ask for some dumb reason. They dont like free advertisement I guess.

>>14286993
I think its just that most people call prime "her" but prime has never actually corrected anyone or confirmed or denied.

>>14287021
His older stuff covered a lot more P-Bandai and he had interviews and more varied content than just reviews. I get people just want to watch kit reviews but its a little boring for me. I can only assume that most of the viewers are snapfitters who just want the coolest toys for their collection as opposed to hobbyists and model builders.

>>14287020
I tried that, but I'm using those paper sandpapers glued onto Popsicle sticks. the water just made the paper really weak and it broke apart pretty fast. Did I use too much water? Now that I think about it, that's probably it.

>>14287030
ahh I feel you. It kinda seems like he wants to just be prolific, I mean he puts out about 2 vids every day hes up to 600 vids plus in like 2 years and the out of box reviews are easy to crank out. idk maybe he'll go back to more interesting stuff but I think you're right judging from the comments a lot of people that watch him are brand new or casual.

Sup gunpla general.
I'm someone who had a mildly popular gunpla channel about 5 years ago, it got taken down for copyright and I started a new channel that was gaining traction but then I took a 4 year hiatus from gunpla lol.

Anyway I want to revamp my channel and make it better and I'm wondering what do you guys look for when watching youtube gunpla oriented channels. What do you like from your favorite channels and what are your peeves that make you cringe/unsubscribe?

Hello Prime92.

I'm fairly certain that if it weren't for the fact that the Gundam franchise exists, I wouldn't be here. I speak for everyone when I say I didn't get into the hobby because of some teen using a voice modulator on youtube.

Alright, this is what you must do in order to become the greatest.

1. Be a girl like prime92

2. Have the energy of mecha gaikotsu

3. Have the swag looks and wife and kids of zaku aurelius

>>14287198
>have energy of mecha gaikotsu
I think you mean hadoken gundam

>>14286957
Thanks anon, I needed a good laugh.

>>14286957
While I'm sure Prime92 has done a lot for Gunpla in North America I'm a britfag so I'll have to take your word for it It doesn't stop it from being an annoying, distorted voice.

I'm like 95% done with a MG star build strike and I can say for certain it has the shittiest most problem ridden hip joints of any gundam model I've built.

Both hip connectors to the legs required modification just to be able to move, then one of the swiveling sockets they connect to on the waist section completely shattered when I first inserted the leg.

Holy shit this has been such a headache.

>>14287050
Give the video an after credit scene like rrobbert

>>14284459
Should we expect a zeta honoo as well? That would probably require a revive zeta, though, but since we're getting a revive hyaku shiki, I doubt it's far behind.

One of the dozens of shitty youtube reviewers is not almost single handedly responsible for making gunpla more popular in the US.

Credit for that goes to Bluefin making it easily available, holding the regional/national gbwc contests, getting it into hobbyshops, and working to get it into the barnes and noble chain. It also goes to fansubbers and eventually gundaminfo itself making subbed episodes available and getting them out quick and free, as well as sunrise in general making damn effective toy commercials.

>>14287508
A while back we had gone through a thread with mods where we tried presenting evidence. Same deal as saying we don't want to go into his threads. The fact that we mention his threads give him attention, but at the same time we show how we don't like him around.

>>14283240
I have the strike IWSP. I love it, but the katana holsters are a bit fragile.

>>14287514
It's also because the mods want something simple, they want a /v/tier rule break. If we can't give evidence that blatant, it won't work.

Had to pin it with wire, since one of the knob snapped off the backpack after it was installed. Basically, just be careful and not a sausage fingers like me.

The main problem is whether to pose it with the Grand Slam sword or the beam rifle + gatling shield combo; and it works best with a stand.

Hmm, I guess I could paint it, but it's kinda pricey for just that.

If you can get a whole carton for about 40USD shipped, then they're well worth it. From experience, they've always come with all variations (including recolors).

Though they do tend to come up at Mandarake and Rakuten for a couple bucks each, so if you only really want certain designs from a set, you can go that route.

I will admit that the RG version of the Destiny is at least a pretty nice step up from the original design.

Infinite Justice's awful head and color seperation are irredeemable, however.

>>14288077
I'm pretty partial to the RG myself. I've never even watched all of GSD, but the Destiny itself just looks cool, despite how busy it is.

IJ's horn is a little irritating, but it's not shit.
I like the color scheme of Athrun's suits. Justice is probably my least favorite of the pack though.

>>14288003
>product specifically for plastic model kits

What's the point then?

>>14288091
Most model kits are designed to have to be painted, so having a panel wash after you paint it up is no big deal.
Remember, gunpla are literally for children.

>>14288093
What should one do, then? A quick google search shows a lot of conflicting information, some say it'll be fine as long as you don't apply too much, others say to do a gloss coat first and it'll be fine, but if I plan on doing a matte top coat when finished will that affect the appearance of the model?

>>14288114
>others say to do a gloss coat first and it'll be fine
This is the best tactic.
>but if I plan on doing a matte top coat when finished will that affect the appearance of the model?
No. The final topcoat chooses what the finish is like. Pros put on a glosscoat before doing waterslides, stickers and panel lining and then finish with their preferred coating. It makes everything just work better.
Just, y'know, keep things light. You don't wanna be losing detail now do you?

>>14288091
You're supposed to paint the kit first, not apply it to bare plastic. It's fine on top of paint or gloss.

>>14288127
>>14288152
That makes sense, and doesn't sound difficult at all. How is the Mr. Top Coat gloss? I can get it super cheap here.

o-oh my god. i just read through this thread and there's nothing but prime92... please let this be bait, man. like yeah her reviews are ok but compared to type v3 or rrobbert she's garbage.
she has a shit personality and thinks she's the best with her ocdonutsteal strike exia.
and from her comments it's starting to sound like she only watched wing, seed, and 00. she hates reco because she's too stupid to sit down and watch it and loved ibo and thinks it has good writing. and jfc her forced memes are worse than anything else" lol look at the gselfie gais"

i know it's hard but you have to ween yourself off her garbage.

>>14288380
anon watch her hauling videos. she has tits. watch her pg strike freedom build with stryder. he calls her a her.

>>14288389
rrobert makes 15 videos for something that can be done in a 5 minute video in a vain attempt to get more views.

typev3 is okay, but it's always painted kits. if i wanted to see painted kits, i'd watch vegeta.

kakarot's accent is fucking annoying, prime's voice is fucking annoying, and gaikotsu's overenthusiastic shit is tiring to watch. but they do straight build reviews, so that's good.

2old can go fuck himself.

kokujin, zakuaurelius and jabman are the only two i have no real issues with.

>typev3 is okay, but it's always painted kits. if i wanted to see painted kits, i'd watch vegeta.
vegeta posts like once a year lol.
v3 shows the unpainted kit first though so you know what you're getting. I do the same thing with my chanel hoping seeing the painted kit would inspire more people to try painting. It doesn't change any features of the kit review wise though. I don't get that complaint.
agree with virtually everything else though

>>14288077
That looks good though.

>>14288449
jesus fuck I want to kill myself watching that video.
is she even married?? I feel sorry for the poor cuck

>>14288449
for rrobbert that's why you just watch the actual review part and the verdict if you care about his opinion

with v3 only half way through does he switch to painted usually by the audio queue "but with a little work..." or "a painters dream" prime does more videos of her painted kits.

2old was cool before the kid came along. same as rrobbert i skipped to the end of his build vids.

didnt mention kakarot for that very reason. dont know the other guy. what's the video for? to show she has a bra on? that she had manish features? there was a hauling vid were she was in a tshirt and they were more defined.

I don't get it.

man i wish she didn't take down her response video. or maybe i'm just not digging deep enough.

I'd marry Prime92.

>>14288504
me too.

>>14288504
her pussy probably smells like polystyrene. She'd make you dress up as kira or setsuna and roleplay every night

>>14288508
I'm gonna marry her first though!

>>14288511
That's fine with me, to be honest.

>>14288515
Im fine with that. You can be the cool but somewhat estranged ex-husband who still shows up every once in a while because he still has custody over the kits

>>14288519
I'm gonna be her only husband!

That's what I did too.

Turns out shes way better than me at handpainting.

>>14288534
it's the nails man!they're used to paint thing lines on small surfaces. my girl hates sd kits tho so it's hard to find kits she likes. so far she likes the gebera and the char zaku

>>14288538
lol true. I just didn't think that would be such an advantage. haha you've got a zeek! maybe she'll like the qubeley?

>>14288540
too big and flabby. i started with all the fem-mechs then went with all the pink mechs. she also liked the looks of that pink ground unit from 00.
now to get her to watch unicorn so she has a zeon bias

>>14288486
i'm not quite sure why but i feel kinda bad for the guy... at least he has a hobby enjoys

Did we ever truly find out why Robert quit? I know he does written stuff on hlj, but it seems he avoids reviewing gunpla there like the plague

>>14288486
This faggot is insufferable. He's an old huge nationalist who spams comments about how "disrespectful to muh NIPPON PURAIDO this build is" all over various other videos and blogs and facebook.

And god forbid you talk to him about non-Bandai kits.

>>14288167
Jobby is okay but he doesn't do much Gunpla.

>he's livestreaming qanta right now

nice desune...

>>14287050
Editing. Trim it down. Don't be rrobert. Your review probably doesn't need to be longer than 10 minutes, or even 5 (depending on the kit).

As for positive things, it's nice when a reviewer shows some sample poses instead of just demonstrating the range of motion of every joint.

what kind of sticker is the worst and why is the yellow v-shape crotch sticker?

hard mode: no "every kind"

>>14288524
Man, I'm envious
I try to get my girlfriend into the hobby but whenever I try to talk about gunpla, she just changes the topic or does that thing women do where they talk like they're listening but you just know they aren't

>>14288167
kokujin, but he doesn't review too many (understandable since it's just a hobby)

jabman is ok.

There's a chinese reviewer i watch on occasion but you know, it's all in chinese and it's really long. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VS6HVNbgXPw

>>14288765
The ones that have very obvious borders. Even better if over a dark colored plastic with a curved surfaced.

>finished my R-gyagya

Its a pretty baller hg.

>>14288389
I have tits too but most people on 4chan wouldn't call me she

>>14289124
No, what you have are moobs. There's a difference, fatty..

>>14289156
that's not what I was implying at all

>>14289050
It's great. The shoulder ball join on mine love to pop off constantly though, does yours have that problem too?

>>14289050
My waist joints just wouldnt stay on and just kept falling off. Oh well, atleast I have some spare parts/possible R JarJa custom fodder.

I was saw a guide on how to get primer out of a spray can to use in an airbrush gun.
I though I would never use it but now I need it and cant find it. Anyone have it?

>>14289161
trap detected

>>14289390
Yeah mine has the same problem. Its a little annoying to pose the shoulder shields due to that

Amazon just delivered me this disrespect?

Do I return it? The runners are probably fine, but if I open it and they aren't it might be harder to return.

Honey, please. Thats nothing. At one point an SAL orders box was crushed to hell, and when I bought an HG Gyan and original HG Gundam the Gundams box was literally depressed in and nearly touched the runners.

time to get started with the MG Hi Nu Ver Ka
>all those fucking decals, AGAIN
fuck me

>>14289889
Had that happen a few times. Shipping isn't always a smooth ride. Unless you like saving the box cover it's no big deal.

>>14289913
>>14289985
Thanks for the words of wisdom. I'll just pop it open. Figured nothing would be harmed and I don't have the space to horde cardboard anyways. Just irksome knowing this wasn't SAL but straight from the amazon warehouse not even out of state. The box this box came in was undamaged so some packer at the warehouse grabbed this one saw the damage was like eh fuck it not my problem, which to be fair it isn't, but still.

mfw people think prime92 is female.

>Accidentally bought Age 1 AG instead of HG

Sometimes I think I have the attention span of a goldfish

Maybe I'll just give it to my little brother instead of returning it

Fear I might have crossed from "ver. Ka" to "Nascar" too "40 yo Thai hooker body art" with my Sword Impulse

>>14290169
I think it needs more decals

>>14289898
Mail those pictures to the seller and ask them if they want you to return in or open and check first.

>>14290173
After The Dry Transfers, MG Sword Impulse ecal sheet, SEED Destiny Decal sheet and the stickers it's hard to fit everything :) Though I'd atleast try to skip 95 % of the stickers.

>>14290107
prime92 is a trans girl. I can say this with confidence. The facial shape, build of torso, posture and the fact she builds gunpla all point to it. source: I'm one too

This is my first kit in a long while

Be gentle

>>14290259
Needs more panel lining/10

Otherwise it's fine

>>14288486
I need a doctor. What's wrong with his arms and hands?

>>14288449
If Prime92 dressed better I'd probably rate her a 6/10. I really want to know what her real voice sounds like though. It may be silky smooth but we wouldn't know because the voice modifier jaggles up her voice.

>>14290190
I believe it. That explains the voice modulation too.
