@ PilapZ Thanks dude, but still got a lot of stuff to do on the Destiny. The biggest of which is the topcoat, since it'll be the first time i'll be applying topcoats on my kits. just remember when you do the topcoat, DO NOT spray it too close and be sure to spray on a nice sunny day! be sure to spray at least 8 inches away. sometimes the topcoat can ruin the whole kit if not applied correctly, just based on my experience. hope that helps amigo. cheers!

@ PilapZ Thanks for the advice. I'll keep that in mind. @no3ljm Thanks. Too bad I'll have to make do with Destiny for the rest of the year. My MG Unicorn order wasn't included in rainbowten's quota. Anyway, I'll just wait for its regular release by next year. @raps Heheh, just the payday! I need to keep the bonus for other necessities and Christmas gifts. Hmm... Christmas gifts eh? why don't I just give myself a Christmas gift also? hehehe ;D

@ Lotur Thanks! I'm almost complete with the UC "Hero" Gundams (just missing the Nu). One more to go! yay! I wasn't planning on getting the Ex-S, since my presumption is that it's going to be one fiddly and unstable figure with all of the attachments to it. But actually it is more solid and stable than it looks (to my surprise!). This seems to corroborate with what I've read from other boards (that Zeonography figures and older GFF's had better builds than the current GFF's). The early-build GFF's I have (GP01 #0006 and Ex-S #0014) show better stability and do not suffer from the "Touch-me-not-or-I'll-fall-into-pieces" syndrome.

nice!
take caution on the GX - if you pull or tug the upper chest without caution, you'll break the connecting clamp. thats one of the GFF GX's worst flaws. next is that the elbow joints tend to break due to the nature of the plastic material used - its not strong enough to be tolerant to stress.

happy collecting!

@ sir V2 Thanks for the heads up! Another thing I've noticed is that the connection between the backpack and the "X" satellite panels is also fragile. Looks like it's bound to break after repeated adjustments to the satellite panels. @qb and No3l Thanks! I'm still thinking about the GFF Nu, since I'm also tempted to buy the HCM-Pro Specially Painted Nu. It looks good with its sleeker profile and GFF-ish with all of the details and markings it has. Also, i might get the HCM-pro Hi-nu as its dancing partner. The downside is, both are a bit smaller than GFF's but cost just as much. Any thoughts?

welcome back amigo! ;D great addition to your collection too. imo, ithink it wud be best to stick with the GFF NU. the size of hcm and gff are totally different. it'll be odd looking at your gff collection with a small NU, diba? just my 2 cents.
