We’re getting geared up for a Merry Meta Holiday Gift Idea List! That’s right, a holiday gift idea list based around holiday themed gifts… give me a break it’s Monday night and I’m running short […]
If you couldn’t tell over the past few years, I love the Brave franchise. Like many others, GaoGaiGar was obviously my first, but once the other shows became accessible, I totally jumped on them. One […]
Motivation strikes once again! I’ve noticed my favorite “II” mobile suits keep ending up as webshop exclusives, and I, in my infinite wisdom, have purchased all of them. The White Dingo GM Sniper II, the […]
Once again, motivation hits me like a brick to the face. And that’s a good thing! Especially since in this case, I’m incredibly motivated by what I’m actually building, not by the fact that it […]
Sometimes, I can get extremely motivated when working on kits. Usually it happens when it’s something I’m really excited to build, like the Nu Gundam ver Ka MG. Others, it’s because of what it isn’t. […]
When I was younger, I had the combining Gundam/G-Fighter from the American action figure line. It was great fun, switching around the parts for all the different combinations. Sure, the figure quickly went obsolete when […]
Okay, okay, I’ll admit… I cheated a bit here. I built a Gundam 2.0 back in 2008 when it first came out. At that point, I didn’t have an RX-78-2 on my shelf, and I […]
It’s been even longer since I’ve taken a look at stuff from Tamashii Nations, so let’s take a peek at those… From this year’s Kamen Rider Wizard, both Kamen Rider Beast and Kamen Rider Wizard […]
Since it’s been awhile, let’s take a look at some upcoming Gunpla for the next coming months! Just released in Japan are the HGUC kits of the Banshee Norn and Shin Matsunaga’s High Mobility Type […]
Okay, after having first previewed this kit several months ago, it’s time for finally get my butt in gear with the Real Type G-Armor! When the Gundam ver 2.0 was first announced back in 2008, […]
Let’s take a little break from the Universal Century, shall we, and we’ll take a look at a series I sometimes forget: Gundam 00. When Gundam 00 first started, it had some of the most […]
The latest episode of Gundam Unicorn made its digital download debut last weekend, with its blu-ray release coming within a few weeks. The episode was long awaited, with the last episode being released in May […]
It’s done. I have conquered the beast. No, this thing wasn’t a beast. The Unicorn Gundam is a beast. The Sinanju is more like a full-blown demon. There are those kits that we fear. […]
I have never gone up against a more frustrating model kit in my entire life. Now, earlier I spoke of how the Version Katoki kits are essentially the gold standards of Master Grades these days, […]
Toy Fair has happen and me start this article by thanking whatever Hasbro employee is reading this site on the regular, or stalking me elsewhere, internet or in real life. The fruits of your research […]
Happy Saturday everyone! Hopefully the snow didn’t mess up your weekend plans too bad, and if they did, I feel for you and can relate. I HAD MUSEUM PLANS TODAY DAMMIT! As the title implies, […]
I remember when this kit first came out. The Unicorn was awesome and cool and everyone was talking about it. A friend of mine mentioned the Sinanju and all I could say was, “what the […]
So close, it’s just so damn close! Never before in my life have I built a more satisfying kit. The Nu Gundam Version Katoki Master Grade is an engineering marvel, and it looks damn impressive […]
Well, that was easier than expected. Honestly I can’t say I’m surprised. As a much older Master Grade, it was pretty clear that it was going to be much simpler than the Nu Ver […]
Ah, good ol’ Crossbone Gundam. Totally badass and armed to the teeth. Crossbone X-1 is an awesome design, but if it weren’t for my current play-through of Super Robot Wars Alpha 2, I probably never […]
