Thanks guys! Hehe! ;D I still need some practice on my AB and I ope it will look good when finished...
Nwayz, V2, what issue you saw the destiny? I never saw that one since I collected Hobby Japan a year now, hehe, maybe I missed it! It also says from the web sculpted by Nataku, one of the popular modeler and scratch builder of Gundams, I saw his works from Hobby Japan and their special issues and Dengeki magz. Nwayz, check also the label from the site. They have an upcoming Akatsuki Shiranui/Owashi on the works for MG Strike Gundam!
I made a reservation on my friend from New York for that Destiny since it looks good! Very expensive nga lang but w/ the guy, I will get them half the price or less since it will be a recast. I cannot afford original core-works or this vicious project resins!

ah. so i guess that answers that. too bad that i sold off most of my hj mags already. but if that destiny is the same as the ones i saw back then, then thats got to be it.
usually hj's "inhouse modellers" are so good that they tend to start up companies like that one. as shown on the "how-to" on the featured kits, they can simply scratchbuild the parts and recast them for mass production.
thats such a nice business, aint it?

That's true, if they have the skills why don't they try to use it as a business? That will worth it!

exactly. so vic, hone up your skills and lets make a business, shall we?! Hehe!!! That's a good idea! How I wish I can focus on this hobby and make a business out of it! If ever, I want to design each MS in extremely intricate detailed action figures better than GFFs, w/ whooping 50+ points of articulation w/ diecasts as the inner frame w/c better than bandai's released, the size is 8" or higher, no doubles (i.e. Strike Gundam will have everything in one box even deactivated mode armors ) but there are recolors such as the Green divers version, perfect transformation if needed, and every MS will be released including mobile armors, and ships?! In my dreams huh! ;D But if ever that will make the fans of gundams jumping in joy! Manalo sana ako sa California lotto, $72 million, w/ that, we can start a full pledged business of Gundams! How I wish...

Nwayz, I mostly buy my kit online (Bigbadtoystore, gundamstoreandmore, oobase, HLJ, and of course, Ebay!!!) That's my top websites. BTW, try also PlaJAapn, that when you buy 2, you'll save a lot!!! I say a lot!!! Plus free shipping $75 up purchases, and I tell you its not a bad deal. If you're living on east bay (oakland example) you can go to HobbyFan.com, a lot of resin, garage kits, and Gunplas! Where in California will you stay? I am only roaming around San francisco, and east bay, and take note: you cannot buy a thing here in CA w/o paying tax! So it's better to take note of the prices since most of the best deals are from online stores, probably ebay. Ope this helps dude!

I just finished setting up some of my Gunplas and action figures. But im still not satisfied since I only have a small space for my collections. My sister is coming here soon, and I must give some space to her, nyek! Nwayz, here's on my room so far... Master Grades (zeta is still on the works) Some Master Grades and High Grades GFFs GFFs, and CRs FF figs, Triguns, SICS SOTA SFs (I like SF), I bought Round 4 set on BBTS for only $33!!! Still hauling some collectibles from BBTS to save shipping. My sis said after showing this tru mail, "Throw it all away!!!!! Or I'll sell it all!" ;D But if I give her a Michael Schumi car, she'll calm down. I know it. Thanks for viewing!!! vic01
