For those new to gunpla/plamo or even just new to this thread; please read the guide. Please read it before asking questions, as there is a chance it has already been answered there.
For those unfamiliar, "plamo" is a shortened form of "plastic model". If it's made of plastic, someone can probably help you here!
If you're new, you're gonna fuck up. Don't worry! If you're experienced, don't make the new people worry!
>Why won't anyone answer my question?
Try being specific, especially about your materials and process. Post pictures whenever possible; even if the kit/part looks bad, you are more likely to get help posting pictures.

== ACE PILOT GROUP BUILD ==
Starting September 1st, you have two months to build, customize, and paint a mobile suit of your choice into your own personal design. This can range from just a repainted Zaku to a kitbashed Gundam loaded with any spare rifles and Rocket Launchers you can find. Any suit from any series is fair game, just stick to 1/144 kits and you're good. When you're done feel free to post it in the thread, but also send pics to [email protected] so that all the entries can be judged/posted at once when the group build is over (If you don't want to be judged for the contest just feel free to mention it when you send in your pics).
Prizes include:
>1st Place: Any HG kit under $25 + an Action Base 2
>2nd Place: Any HG kit under $15
>3rd Place: An Action Base 2
(Note: Shipping is to USA and Canada only)
Group build ends on October 31st, lets gunpla!
(Strawpoll for possible week extension, voting ends after this thread www.strawpoll.me/11428916/)
I can't wait to start my first MG next week. Its the Heavy Arms EW
What is your excuse this time?
I only build with other people that's my excuse
Anyone got some kits from the SEED MSV restock? Ordered both the Dreadnought and Gouf Ignited Heine colors, wait to build em already
Whats everyone working on? Building my F2 until I can start priming my Gelgoog, hopefully Saturday.
So my next models are gonna be the Vayate and the Mercuius
Are the Thunderbolt kits ever going to get reissues? I want some.
>>14856480
I would imagine they're not hard to find.
Anyone here ever make the astrea type F before?
I uhh... can't snap this one bit on. It's the thing that goes between the rest of the chest and the arm. Just won't go on the joint, and I don't wanna fuck up and break the plastic or nothin.
>>14856363
Been slowly working on a Gouf R35 in small chunks over the past couple months, a bit upset because there was a painting step I missed so, delays when I wanted to finish by this weekend. Boo.
>>14856571
Got a pic? I've no problems building mine. Inspect the part closely and re-read the instructions.
Discuss.
Has anybody actually gone through this?
>>14857157
This arm barrier thing that also goes over the glassy bit. Image might be flipped cuz mobile.
>>14857178
Haven't gone through that myself, but I think you made the right choice. If a woman tells you to decide between her and a harmless hobby, the choice is simple.
>>14857195
You pick the poon?
The other Gunpla thread hasn't reached 200 post an yet you make a new...
>other thread is full of snapshit posting.
I'm sorry. Carry on.

>posting on an imageboard as anonymous with some illusion of authority.
Where you guys get scans of hobby magazines at?
Is the HG RX-78 local type any good?
>>14860718
Yes, the Origin HGUCs are very very solid. Especially the Zakus.
>>14860718
abso-fucking-lutely.
>>14860786
I wanted to get the Char's origin Zaku, but maybe I should wait for the revive Zaku?
I mean there is a revive Gouf, they surely will make a reviva Zaku as well, right?
>>14861579
I'm personally waiting for the Origin Zaku in mass production colours. I'm confident Bandai will put off a revive zaku for some time when they need a like massive return. It's also just going to be a retool of the ridden and matsunaga Zakus but with new parts for a standard zaku.
>>14854818
Hey Airbrush-kun, correct me if I'm wrong but aren't you (along with Snapfit-kun) are the Shitpost-kun brothers? So I shouldn't rep- Oh wait...
>>14861579
Yeah we all are waiting for a Zaku revive, but the origin ones are pretty much that.
Still mad?
>>14861933
Save your money up, chump.
>>14861572
christ clean your nubs man
>>14856363
f2 a best
What are the chances of us getting sochies kapool MG sometime? I would love to get it.
Still waiting on my G-Reco MGs too. The HGs don't just don't do them justice.
>>14861933
HAHA I'LL JUST WAIT FOR DABAN JUST LIKE ALTRON
FUCK YOU BANDAI FOR REFUSING MY MONEY
>>14863410
I just finished mine (minus the rocket pods). Whats your favorite version of the helmet?
>>14863410
FZ a best!
>>14861637
They will roll that out probably spring next year. The pic the shown from the Origin Loum arc shows mass production Zakus all over the place. Hopefully this release comes with the Zaku Machine Gun this time!!
>>14863410
>>14863878
F2 cute!
Why don't you people use the reinforced helmet.
Got around to building the Waff tonight, and I really dig the hell out of the kit. Proto Zaku looks great, and I love that skull helmet. Cant wait to get Ral's Bugu in December.

even as tragically unfinished as yours is, the local type is just a really nice kit.
