Hmm that depends, because msia lines are quite small in scale compared to hg 1/144 and it may not fit well. |

Any news when the MG sanju (forgot it's name)(the red arch-enemy MS ng unicorn gundam) be coming out here in the Phils.? The mg sinanju is said to be released on dec. 25 on the x-mas day. The earliest probably is on the weekend after the said date through migs. |

@ tagabukidph: hmmmm i dont paint my kits all of them are snap built only will there be problems with the water slide decals if i dont paint the kits Sorry for butting in... just additional info on the subject at hand... - use a spare decal for practice, - decals are not made equal so depending on the decal you may need to dip it in water with 1 drop dishwashing liquid longer than others, with Bandai decals I get better result when the paper backing is totally soaked and a few more seconds until you can move the design/decal from the paper, - preferably use a paper towel or tissue to apply pressure and thus removing any bubble trapped under the decal, - if the decal is stubborn allow it to dry upside down, apply white glue on the plastic and replace the decal over the plastic (this replaces the lost glue from the decal) then the glue around it can be wiped off with a damp cloth (carefully because decals are very fragile). - applying over panel lines will require a setter or you can experiment with diluted acetone, but this is not for the faint of heart ;D you can lose a good decal with this technique if done wrong. According to this place there is NO 1/100 Gundam Heavy Arms other than the Endless Walts version: www.gundamstoreandmore.com/noname1.html |

Need your opinion on a 1/60 HG-EX V2 GUNDAM. Is it any good? pretty nice in size but because of that it sacrifices accuracy in design. also since its pretty much an "old" kit (199X?), you might get disappointed with it since you're already used to kits that are released nowadays. |

i dunno if its just me but is there anybody else here who thinks that HG 1/144s have better proportions compared to their NG 1/100 counterparts? (most in the case of the Gundam 00 lineup)
For example, IMO 1/100 00 Gundam is a bit "thicker"/"bulkier"/"chubbier" than its HG 1/144 counterpart...

if that's the case, i suggest you also wet the area where the decal will be placed so it will not give you a hard time in positioning them ;D
