Basically as posable as any Robot Damashii (or any other Tamashii stuff) but light due to their construction and depending on how much you like stickers that might annoy you.
But all in all great figures, and it's only 1000 yen.

Other than needing the right tools and following the instructions, gunpla isn't that hard. It's pretty simple actually once you get the hang of it.

I managed to watch IBO tonight on Hulu and so far my satisfaction has been met. The particulars of the plot will have to come with time, but the initial conflict of the episode translated fairly well within the framework of the information provided on screen. After the introduction of the Barbatos in action, I now want to add the kit to my ever increasing backlog. Gundam is one of my favorite meta-series and will undoubtedly stick with it.

I also noticed that G-Reco is on Hulu as well. Maybe I'll actually get past the fifth episode this time.

EDIT:

This is a gundam?



Gundam Gusion

for a kit that only costs about 12 bucks it looks great, the value proposition is definietly there.

Stop making me want it more! lol

Buying pre built models or figures just takes away the fun of building one yourself. There's no greater pleasure than looking at a model that you've snapped together with your own two hands.

That's the cool thing about Gunpla: each kit is a totally unique experience to the person building it.

Never going to forget the time I fell asleep while building Nu Gundam Ver Ka...

Yeah, it makes each kit really your own when you know it's your effort. I've put 4 hours into an Amazing Exia I'm going to give away for Christmas gift exchange, so it'll be much more satisfying to give that away know it'll be my work someone will receive.
