***READ THE GUIDE***
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 November 7th, lets gunpla!
Oops...wrong thread...
>>14899491
Yea. Someone make the right thread pls!
Anyone have a MS paint version of the Full Armor Gundam from Thunderbolt?
what are the good not-gundams plamo out there?
I was trying to find some grapearls from TTGL and maybe some stuff from majestic prince, but they're either too expensive or come assembled already
>>14899698
While I'm not sure if this counts, I've heard pretty good things about these. Your local Toys'R'Us probably has a bunch
>>14899698
If you want to build a not gundam, you might want to look into zoids. This one needed a metric fuckton of detailing because all the guns were the same color plastic, and it also has balance issues. But Iv'e herd stuff like the ligers are a bit better in those regards.
>>14900772
yeah nah, zoids are dumb.
>>14899731
acceptable poseability , but some articulations are not hidden , look at the shoulders and elbows, those are the worst offenders in that regard
