hmmmm...maybe I should start snap building mine already....great pics of the Exia. looking at it snap built, there aren't really that many details needed to paint. now all i need is time. no3ljm can read a bit of Nihonggo. (tama ba sempai?) Maybe you can scan the magazine part and post it here on the boards. i'm interested to know if there will be add'l parts for the astraea....

@gundamx nice update on your EXIA and ASTRAEA, bro. binitin mo pa ako sa AoZ post mo. hehehe. ;D
true. how i wish that the conversion parts included atleast the Astraea's Beam Rifle. all we can do is modify Exia's shield to make it look like the Astraea's shield. i think we just have to cut the lower part of the shield. and no news yet if there's gonna be an additional conversion/weapon parts of Exia/Astraea.
about the additional Unicorn weapon parts, the Gatling Gun, it will be included on the fourth novel book of the Gundam Unicorn. but i think there's a catch on that one. because, per novel, you get a single Gatling Gun sprue. to maximize the whole 2 Gatling Gun units (based on the photos of Unicorn with the Gatling Guns), you have to buy another novel to get the 2nd Gatling Gun sprue. same thing with Hazel Hrududu's. to maximize, you need to buy 2 kits to achieve the Hrududu 2nd Form. that's their marketing ploy. hehehe.
@qb yup. just a bit bro. tamang naiintindihan ko lang. hehehe. i think some of the new guys here can read it too.

as for HG Gundam 00 decals, try to look for the January 2008 issue of DENGEKI Hobby Magazine. it has this great looking Celestial Being logo included. though it's not waterslide, it's your standard Gundam decal, like the transparent sticker decal from HGUC kits. the sticker also includes decals for various Gundam photonovel series from Dengeki Hobby such as Advance of Z and Seed Astray F.
hope that helps.

@no3ljm, i saw that in the dengeki hobby magazine site... but the problem usually r10 don't have back-issues I have started cleaning my converted Gundam Exia, and sad to say I made some mistake on the head. I cut some inner parts so I can slide the face after glueing the two side-head, but i was not able to notice at first that the externed part of the head at front will still block the face from sliding in .. so now, the head is too loose... i have to put some putty inside to tighten it... hope it will works hehehe I will post my progress this week BTW, it is ok to mix Tamiya Color (enamel) and Mr. Hobby Color?

@qb yup. it's a separate month issues. the freebie Decals is from January 2008 issue. while the Astraea parts is from February 2008 issue.
@gundamx hmmm. so R10 doesn't carry back issues? maybe you can check out HLJ. maybe, they carry some back issues. about the Astraea head, i'll wait for your photo post. thanks. as for the paint question, i think it's ok as long that both paints are enamel based. but as far as i remember (correct me guys if i'm wrong), Mr. Hobby Color is lacquer based. so mixing it up with Tamiya (Enamel) Color is a no-no.
btw, last time i checked at GTmakati, they still have the Dengeki Hobby January issue. so grab one now.

Good luck on the exia head, man! For your paint question, as long as it's the same type of paint (enamel- enamel or lacquer- lacquer) i believe it's all good.
