Don't get me wrong though: that beam sabre kick she did was all kinds of awesome.

It really gave me Valvrave: The Liberator vibes.

The end of Gundam Build Fighter was so perfect that I have no more tears left :cry

Right after the show I went and finished off the Universal Booster

It's beautiful...:cry

You know if they don't at least make MG's of Crossbone Maoh and regular Fenice I'll be massively disappointed.

I would have thought Bandai considered an MG Fenice a given. I'd totally rebuy it in any scale they make it in.

A MG Fenice should almost be a no brainer for Bandai, but they don't always go with what's an easy sell. What Japanese trade shows are coming up? Maybe we'll see one last BF push before the deluge of Reconguista merchandise begins to hit.

I managed to get a friend of mine whom really isn't into Gundam at al hooked on the Build Fighters. The best part is: I did so through no pushing of my own.

He saw me using screencaps of the Star Build Strike from the baseball episode and ended up marathoning in the span of two days.

I literally had no idea until like a minute ago that the MG Universal Booster includes parts to retrofit an MG Build Strike into a Star Build :lol

Now I need another Build Strike!

The effect parts are gorgeous and blow the HG ones out of the water.

And look on the bright side: You'll have an extra build booster to slap onto another kit!

So I just finished the Zeta Gundam New Translation movies and I like them for what they are.

Their biggest flaw is the pacing. Not only does a lot of shit happen in so little time, but every line is explaining something and it's a lot to take in. I don't think this is as much of a fault of the running time as the content of Zeta itself. The story seems really complex with lots of twists and turns happening

I think I'm gonna go watch Zeta proper
