I'm sure you guys have heard me talk about Kotobukiya's Weapon Unit kits and how much I love them, well here's one of the ones I got, the Exceed Binder.

Going to be using this in a future project but I thought I'd test it out first:

Big A Shield mode:

Possibally my favrioute configuration, a Buster Cannon:

Yeaaaaaah, the weapon modes are a bit too heavy for the Xiphos to use but I like it a lot! Buster Cannon mode my favrioute mode but I'm a sucker for BFGs.

Nope. Its its own standalone Universe/ show. No outside info required.

I love 00 because it refines a lot of Gundam's tropes into making sense within that universe, rather then just doing it out of tradition's sake. And it is very unique compared to a lot of other Gundam series.

There's also a movie that's a sequel to the series that I defintley recommend. And the best ending to any Gundam series, that I have seen in my opinion.

I seriously almost cried when I watched this, it's so beautiful. I feel like I've let Bandai down in just slapping together my Gunpla and after this video, I'm gonna put everything I got into each kit.

Gunpla is freedom, you don't let anyone down by doing what you want to do.

But there's always room to try out new stuff, and it's great if the video inspired you to do it.

I did too. Always wondered how kits were made, this is amazing.

While that didn't make me cry, it does show me how the creation of a gunpla works. Just seeing all of those metal boxes goign into those big machines, all just to make those tiny runners is mindblowing to me.

I just think it's amazing that they hand craft the molds themselves. Usually a company has a machine carve it out. Not only that, but they willingly where the uniforms. It's just so awesome.
