DAMN

I want to wait for a possible blu ray release of Turn A here but might settle for the DVD for now. Did the Japanese release come with subs? I prefer subs.

Also it has been a decade since I built an MG kit. I know much has changed. The good thing about Plamo is that unlike toys, they're in constant production, even Gunpla kits from the early 80's can be had for cheap. It isn't like the 90's where the only places that sold them were Hungates, some comic shops, et al. These days you can get them from Hobbytown, amazon, Barnes and Nobles, several online stores, et al. So I'm in no rush to catch up. Trying to get rid of stuff, save money, make space, et al.

Doesn't mean I don't want to add to my Gunpla backlog. Are the newer MG kits sans polycaps, sturdier than the older kits with polycaps? I don't treat my Gunpla like toys(led to disaster when I was a lot younger). Only MG I've ever built was Spiegel Gundam and I screwed in the shoulder wrong so it's jacked up(never use a screwdriver that's too big at the wrong angle! FAIL!).

Before that I built the following:

• 1/100 Gundam Epyon
• 1/144 Wing Gundam Zero
• 1/144 Gundam Deathscythe Hell
• 1/144 Wing Gundam
• 1/144 Gundam Virsago

This is what I built a few years ago:

• HGUC G30th RX-78-2
• SD Gundam Exia
• SD Gundam AGE(1-3 swap bundle set)
• SD Gundam Quant 00 or whatever it's called

Yeah, the newer MGs tend to have fewer polycaps and they have been more sturdy in my experience.

Ez-SR

Get this kit, he's great.

so, I should be getting the Star Build Strike Plavsky Wing tomorrow.

hopefully it's a fun kit.

You know a lot of Gundam shows have distinct designs. But why the heck does all the kids in Destiny/Seed Destiny have that similar face design.

Laziness.

Meh, most anime characters look the same to me, unless they have a really distinct style.

My problem with Seed is how uninspired and uncolourful the desins were.

Actually what surprises me is the amount of animes that came out around that era that reuses a lot of the character designs.

Fafner comes to mind, off the top of my head.

Ditto

wasn't fafner done by the same team as SEED?

I wouldn't be surprised that their designs would be the same. because it's the exact same.

but yeah, SEED's art is so bad I sometimes confuse a girl for a boy and vice versa.
