I just want to share my very very very old MSIAs w/c I saw on our stockroom, they were eatin dusts! ;D Most of them were modified because I have nothing to do that time when I was in college, so I just messed them up, hehe. I still have some MSIAs but I couldn't find them, like Zeta Gundam Ver. 2, Gundam Astray Red Frame, Freedom Gundam, and some Gundams from G and 0079 Gundam. ![](http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b112/vic01/DSC05831.jpg) ![](http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b112/vic01/DSC05840.jpg) nice modified MSiA figures, brod vic01. so are you going to bring those back to the US to complete your collections? ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png)
btw, i'm curious with what you did with the Re-GZ. do you have a close up picture on the MS form. didn't know it could do that. you give another meaning to the BWS (Back Weapon System) description, bro. ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png)
hmmm... can i do that with HCM Re-GZ? wish i could do that. i think i need to order one more for this modification. hehehe. ;D TIA.

if i recall the BWS of the MSiA ReGZ is composed of 5 main parts: two for each of the shoulder housings, two for each side of the wings and one for the nose area. they're connected to each other by a single peg in which what vic did with the ReGZ - connect the shoulder parts by fitting and securing them to the backpack and re-positioning the wings to a vertical position.

thanks brod V2. so it's connected with 'peg'. hmm.. i dont think the wing connector on the HCM's BWS has a peg. and the nose area, i think, it can't be remove too. will look into it later and see what i can do. ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png)

So the modifications on the Re-GZ were done mainly by rearranging the parts? Creative. Might look into this with my own MSiA's. ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png)

V2 looks like i can't do on my HCM Re-GZ what vic01 did to his MSiA Re-GZ. the BWS breaks into 3 parts only. the nose & back area, and 2 shoulder & wings. the Re-GZ looks better in brod vic's modifications. looks buff and heavy artillery looking. hmmm... Re-GZ [ver.VIC01]. o di ba. ;D

well, its more of a slight re-adjustments and slap-on / slap-off of various parts from their original locations.
all i can say is, vic's got this nasty "talent" on making current designs look nastier (if not wackier).

V2 agreed. but i still wish i can do that to my HCM Re-GZ. but i don't want to force pull some parts on the HCM. hehehe. ;D
vic01 brod vic, i have some questions after the announcement of MG Strike Freedom. i know you have the Strike Freedom resin parts, are you going to continue building it? and are you going to buy the upcoming MG Strike Freedom as well? atleast you will know if the resin kit is more astig-looking than the MG kit, huh. ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png)

Thanks for the heads up, guys!!! ;D Been awhile, since I just came back from there. I was so lonely, mamimiss ko love ko, ope we are meant for each other. I know we have to do our own things first, and no need to rush things. Have to save a lot while im here so that I can stay in PI for her and for me. But for a while, I will still collect GUNDAMS!!! ;D ninja, Winn and Noel: I used some parts from other MSIAs and 1/144 and 1/100 HG kits I have for the customization. The Re2-GZ (Hehe, since I refined it again to make the BWS as a part of Re-GZ) modifications are so simple. The only thing I modified there is the pegs from the wings, just put some glue to make it tight and hold the wings while in MS, just rotate it backwards while in MS mode. Then I took off the nose/gun on BWS and connect a holder below it to hold by Re-GZ as its main gun, like it! Thats it! BTW, I didn't bring them here and just left it to my room in our house there. They are so heavy and no room since I handcarry MP-3 Starscream (at least MP-3 was ok to handcarry, you know airport was so strict!) and the MP-4 was so big that it left no room on my luggage, hehe. I dunno if it will work on the HCM-Pro since I don't have one. About the Strike Freedom I have (CW version), I will still continue it and finish the remaining model kits I have. The Zeta is done already, I'll just wait for my digicam since my sis borrowed it and will wait for a while before she comes here. I was so late about the Strike Freedom MG version, if I didn't check GT forum, I will not know it, so december is the month for this baby, awesome! ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) From HLJ: www.hlj.com/product/BAN948083MG Strike Freedom SP Option parts? www.hlj.com/product/BAN900741vic01

welcome back brod vic01. di na tayo nagbangga sa GTmakati. hehehe. ;D
nweiz, cool hauls btw at the 'what did you buy' thread. TF MPs huh. cool! but still, Starscream is painted with pale blue. gray is more ok for me. it's a good thing that the custom people didn't confiscate your toys for their kids. GULO yun. hahaha!!! ;D
ok, regarding the Re2-GZ [ver. VIC01], inggit pa rin ako. hehehe. i think this cannot be made with the HCM version. cause the back base for the wings and the nose/gun part were one piece. and i cannot rotate the wing part coz it doesn't have a peg. just a 'locking plastic' part.
still, the HCMs CCA series is a great additional collection for your gundam-filled cabinet. go buy one, bro! ;D

brod vic, question, based on your photos, when you view it from the front area, does the cockpit hatch almost cover the lower part of the face? TIA. ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/grin.png)
