A joyous fat bear week to all 🐻

I finished up the RG Banshee. Pretty good, in my opinion. Wish the back pack armed armor tabbed together, but eh. And the usual issue of the shoulder pieces breaking due to how tight the MS joint is. Salvaged some from a failed Unicorn build till metal ones arrive. #realgrade #gundam #gunpla

Nabbed the RG Banshee on sale. Figured it was finally time to build the Unicorn's younger, edgier sibling. The Unicorn Display shelf grows #realgrade #gunpla #gundam

Finally got around to posing up the RG 2.0 with the expansion set. Love having the javelin, super napalm, & G/H Hammer. The extra bazooka and curved saber are more "eh" for me. Part of me thinks some of this should have been with the 2.0 to begin with. #gundam #realgrade #gunpla

Holy crap, I can post more than 4 pics now? Uh, here's the HG Kämpfer. Built it a couple days ago, and it's pretty good for its age. Think some of today's engineering could really benefit the design, though. And apologies for the absence. #highgrade #gunpla #gundam

Here's the Desultor! This kit deserves to be widely released. One of the best HGs I've built in recent memory, just like the rest of the HG Witch line. Only real complaint are the hip joints coming apart when I pose it too much #gundam #gunpla #gwitch #highgrade

3rd ever P-Bandai purchase with this guy and the RG Gundam expansion set. Really wish this MS wasn't P-Bandai. Especially since it isn't even that obscure. It had a whole episode highlighting it. #gunpla #gundam #gwitch #highgrade

A friend gifted me the Atlas Gundam. Really cool kit and MS. Sub kegs are a little awkward, and quite a few stickers for color correction. Just painted those parts myself and the eyes. The paint job on the joints didn't turn out great., but the eyes aren't too bad #gundam #gunpla #highgrade

Alright, 2nd 3rd party kit with ND Tiger Gouf Custom. Pretty good kit. Weird engineering choices for the butterfly joints, which basically leaves them nigh useless. Tolerance issues in those same areas, and a weird neck joint choice. Not bad, really. Just weird. #gunpla #gundam

I forgot to post these. Love the Revive Hyaku Shiki. I know some people don't like gold plastic, but I don't mind. He'll, it's how it looked om the anime. And it means i can panel line without incident. #gundam #gunpla #highgrade

Finally got the Hyaku Shiki Revive. Every time I saw a sale going on, I would always say think about getting it, I would get something else. Just kept passing it, and I now I finally said "fuck it," and got it. Been building it for a bit. Lotta undergating #gundam #gunpla #highgrade

The Easy 8 is complete! Honestly, a really great kit. Even maged to panel line it with no issues. Has one of the biggest arsenals I've ever seen for 1/144 scale. Poses really well too. Just have to tighten the ball joints. #gunpla #highgrade #modelkit

Working on my first 3rd party kit, with the Kurofune Easy 8. All ABS which means being extra careful with the panel lining. I don't even know what tags to use for this. #gunpla #modelkit #3rdpartykit

And here's the Gallus-J! Big, bulky, and beautiful. Poses better than you'd think. And the extendo-punch is a fun feature. Even has a movable monoeye. The gun... is odd. But that's more on the design of it than the kit itself. #gundam #gunpla #highgrade

New ZZ suit to the collection. I feel ZZ suits don't get enough attention. I love how they can go from pretty standard UC to absolutely lovable weirdos, with the Gallus-J being near the middle. Especially love how many have some nice asymmetry. #gundam #gunpla #highgrade

Back to the familiar grounds with the Universal Cenury. It's the HG Nemo, Unicorn Version. Always loved the Nemo. Wish it got more appreciation. Painted the orange and shoulder vents myself with a marker. Pretty ok kit for being almost 13 years old. #gundam #gunpla #highgrade

Spider-Man

It's done! Cool kit. Color separation on the main body is 99% perfect, and it poses well. I just have a hard time with those wings, the hands being loose, and the guns in the wings. They love to clash with the head. I'll try transforming it later since it has an MA mode #gunpla #gundam #highgrade

Finished the rifle. Did my best to paint the blue and little metallic details. The more annoying part was the sensor and the little... boxes(?) on the side. Think I did alright. The seam on the top refuses to close #gundam #gunpla #highgrade

Well. Either this peg broke at some point, and I never noticed, or I had my very first mold mess up. I can't tell. Cause this was snipped right off the runner like this. Oh well #gundam #gunpla #highgrade

Well, I've decided to keep up my Seed kit journey with the rising freedom. Which has a foil sticker sheet the size of most Real Grade decal sheets. Good lord. Gonna do my best to pant with Gundam Markers. #gundam #gunpla #highgrade

Another Zaku to the collection. These GQuuX kits are great. Had to glue the snoot in. Kept popping off. And the legs are a little weird with articulation. Damn fine Zaku otherwise #gundam #gquuux #highgrade

I decided to grab the RG Astray not too long after the HG for the sake of comparison and cause the RG just looks so damn cool. And it's not too bad. Poses decently well. Not as well as the HG, though. But not as bad as some other early RGs #gundam #gunpla #realgrade

I recently built the HG Red Astray. Always kinda liked the Astray designs more than the usual Seed designs. The less armored look, big ass sword on a big ass robot, and the simple color scheme just speaks to me. Oh, uh, this is a good kit, BTW. #gundam #highgrade #gunpla

"You like Jazz," last thing a Zeon hears before being obliterated by some drummer in a Gundam. Really like this kit. Was actually fairly simple for an MG, except the plastic covering on the joints being was a bit finicky during the build #gunpla #gundam #mastergrade

Alright. Time for a new Ver. Ka kit. The Thunderbolt Gundam. Been wanting to build this and the Psycho Zaku for a while. But this one was cheaper, so it gets fist billing. #gundam #gunpla #mastergrade

I also picked up an HG Deathscythe in my absence. I really like it. I have a weakness for scythes being used as weapons. And this has a laser scythe at that. It's also one of the few Wing MS I absolutely adore. #gundam #gunpla #highgrade

And here's the Mudrock! Besides some gripes about articulation, this is honestly all I want in a Mudrock. Parts for both incomplete and complete versions, rifle, shield, sabers. It's nice. Sad that it's P-Bandai. I think it deserves to be a regular release #gunpla #gundam #highgrade
