Anyways, here's my latest acquisitions before I hibernate for some time since I need to finish the house/room project first and then.... buy some stuff for the house. At last, over 2 years of hunting and thanks to valkyriepilot's help too.. I managed to grab these MSIAs. Presenting the last box before hibernating... The package I got from sir mon. Thanks much for putting your trust on me!!  The original form of Devil Gundam. Now I have you!!  and there's the heaven's sword..  .. and the walter gundam.  when you add it wth my grand gundam...  ... then it only means I lack one single piece, it's the master gundam... and I'm done completing this one old evil mech. Thanks for veiwing guys!!  |

It's been a long time and great hauls, but so near yet quite far to complete. Hope you find the missing piece. |

congrats on getting a new place! just take considerations on the cleaning and maintenance when you're purchasing new furnitures and such!
and those figures sure are nice works for non-gunplas for starters!

@ kingferic: thanks bossing!! It was just tough luck when I was browsing the threads in the "for sale section" here and got to see the whole set for sale... I just broke his set and left the grand gundam since I got one from sir valkyriepilot already. @ rainero: I really do hope so as well. I have high hopes for the master gundam since I really don't consider it rare enough compared to dendro and as well as the devil gundam (original form). @ QB: Thanks boss!! Ahahaha, you really made me laugh!! If I recall it right, you were the ones tempting me to get these!! ;D ;D ;D Hahahaha! Anyways, I was glad I'm near completion.  @ sir V2: thanks sir!! yeah, it's really a tough one but I'll update you guys when I am back to my real place. Maybe I'll buy a good display cab after the finishing and as well as paint job and flooring will be finished.. Teehee!! ;D Btw, these are the only mechs I really consider "NICE" on the G gundam series, except for Shining, God, and Nobell Gundam. The bad guys' mechs in the series are just soo wicked!! can't get enough of it! Hehehe...  @ Pilapoy: many thanks amigo!

Hi guys, just back with a minor updates since I am still prioritizing the finishing of house (even just the inside part of the house first will do). Here is a project that my "commander" and I have in mind as a birthday present since her father loves volks that much... I guess she has what it takes too since she proved it to me during the activity we had back then where she forced me to paint some figures at SM.. Presenting the Volkswagen 1300 Beetle 1966 Model... the last one standing at the Tamiya botique in Ayala I really love the old look.. Heheheh. ;D Oh well, she asked me into this and really not a bad idea as a present though since her papa is into volks. Since she wanted to learn how to do it, so it's my time to give the construction 101 to her.. Hahaha. Actually, we share on the load. Both of us do the cutting, the sanding, the panel lines, and as well as the assembly. Then she does the handbrushing using the silver and gold colors as well as applying glue or mighty bond on some parts. Lastly, I do the spray can painting on some parts with flat black, the maroon for the chassis and the top coating. There are a lot of things we miss out as well since we panic alot due to the time constraints. We actually need to finish it before her sister leaves for Tacloban for the Pintados Festival. Here's what we really didn't bother fixing: 1. some colors to add details especially on the lights 2. fixing the seam lines Let me share to you then the progress of the project. Day 1         Nothing much really happened on the first day since we were just checking the parts out and as well as, checking the manual and I tried to check my skill at cutting if it has rusted or not. ;D I really hate the stolen shot. Ahahahahaha Day 2  Now its my commander doing the honors.. She's getting good with the cutting part.. We even made it at McDonald's near work since we don't have that much time.... Day 3    This is where we started to paint some parts. Well, its my commander's turn first since I disagreeignment is near the last part.. Hehehehe.... ;D ;D ;D Day 4           This time, she's owning!! Hehehe. ;D Now there's papa modeller, then mama modeller.... and the next will be... baby modeller!! yey! ;D I never knew my fingernail was part of the project, the next thing I knew, there is a happy face already.. Hehehe ;D Day 5           Now comes the day that we were trying to assemble the parts so we can see how far we have accomplished. I really love the way she did the wheels. Now I consider her the master!! Heheheh... Just look at that work table!! busy busy day.. Hehehe Day 6 This is where my part comes in. I don't want to let her deal with the spray cans so I am the ones doing it of course, with mr. Pilapoy's way.       Then we properly placed the parts to their designations and it's almost done!! ;D Also add panel lines to give it more details. Day 7       The project is almost done!! woohoo!! At last I can breathe!! The finale!!            My only concern due to the time constraint was that we missed to clean the seams, as well as not able to give detail on the head/tail lights... tsk tsk  Anyways, that's all for now guys. Thanks for viewing!! |

Hi guys, at last, I have found a place to stay although there's still alot of work to do.. hehehe.. This is the first time my gundams have its display case (which is temporary though). By the way, Im still thinking if I am going to sell my gundam collections for a new interest.. teehee. Here's the cleaning part... Just see the mess... And if you observe that much, you'll see me prioritizing my collections than any others.. what an addiction! GRR!! joke!Due to the exhaustion I saw with the messy room, I tried to visit a friend who got me into a new interest... bertoy! Mahn! Who could even resist the temptation!!  This is what I am after, the DYRL and as well as the TV versions... Bert!! you really got me into this!! Hahaha And of course, his awesome scratch built fortress........ (wicked DIO!) A little off track, as I was on my way to do some work... I found these kids and see what they're doing... Oh my! that's dirty dude!! and now, my most awaited part.... The first time I ever took the gundams for display. Wheew!! At last.... at long last.... (though the display case is temporary since I am looking for a glass frame. Hope you'll enjoy! the hcm pro collection (starting from back part: Destroy, freedom, exia, vitrue/nadleeh, kyrios, dynames, altron, sandrock, wing 0, deathscythe, heavy arms, tallgeese I, hi-nu, akatsuki, and exia sp version) the fix figuration collection (starting from back: ex-s 0011, crossbone fullcloth, destiny, FAZZ, full armor nu, god gundam, wing, rx, nobell, legend, IJ, gx, and shin musha. xi and deepstriker can't make it due to lack of space) the MSIA collection (starting from back: Devil gundam first form, grand gundam, walter gundam, rising gundam, death army, heavens sword, and Mk-II. Dendrobium can't make it either since it needs more space and cab is already full.) the HG/NG/MG 1/100 model kits collection (this is actually a combination of completed and uncompleted kits. starting from back: providence, legend, blitz, duel, buster, aile strike, strike rouge, wzc, epyon, double x, virtue/nadleeh, unicorn, justice, aegis, IJ, force impulse, destiny, freedom, heavy arms custom, tallgeese III, deathscythe hell custom, exia and crossbone x1. other kits are still on their boxes.) - miasong |

now that is impressive! congrats on a successful arrangement. you should add some risers on your shelf so that the guys in the back won't be covered up. otherwise, great display! ;d

its always a great task to organize, create and unleash one's toys... and the breathtaking pics show your great dedication and the end results are simply drooling! its almost like a toyshop!
i'd also advice you to at least get a glass cover or something to protect them from dust and from falling down...

@ QB: Many thanks! It's an honor. It's been a long time you've visited the thread. Hehehe.. You're right! They do need some risers but I am actually waiting for payday so I can ask some help in modifying the display case or just to get a glass case. Still got a lot of things to do with the place like buy some drawers for the clothes and all. Anyways, I'll start with the display case so I'll see the beauty in it. HAHAHA! ;D @ V2: Many thanks sir v2. It actually took me 2 days to set them up and as well as cleaning the figures. Yeah, it's always best for a closed cabinet (if not an air tight one) to protect the figures from dust. Maybe by next month I'll be able to have it in a closed cabinet. @ giver: It's nice for you to drop by bert! Well, after I spent my time at your place looking at your display inspired me to set mine as well but again, still temporary and I need to follow your advice with the glass cabinet. As for the macross ones, I still have 4 of them and... hehehe.... still a few and not much to show so they go in their boxes. By the way, the I still need to get the figs from you and as well as I might go with the VF-1a hikaru to complete the DYRL and take the tomahawk too!! HAHA! Many thanks guys! Until the next update! - miasong
