HG 1/144 Nu Gundam Review

The review of Nu is here!

This Gundam comes with four different hands and each of the fin funnels are poseable.

It has rather stiff joints which will be necessary when the fin funnels are attached.
For once, an HG beam rifle comes in multiple colors.
The bazooka does also but it's still not color accurate.

The shield is very nice but the attachment can be rather loose.
Full armements! Some weight issues occur in this set-up.
This size comparison should show you how massive this Gundam is. No, The review of the Quanta will not be up until I get around to lining it.
I really like this Gundam's beam sabers. This one, especially was used very awesomely in the movie.
I removed the bazooka, shield, and fin funnels because they tend to obstruct movement.
The fin funnels are very accurate (despite the stickers) and can all be transformed into their "gun" form.

They have very strong connections to each other.
"Gun" mode.
Secret:

Hidden beam saber!
This is really big for a secondary beam saber. (The Jegan's review won't be up for a while either.)
When the last three funnels are removed, it makes movement much easier.
In my opinion, it looks better this way (less excessive).
The shield can now be held horizontally without the extra funnels.
Funnels!
Dalong flexibility check. (No, it isn't extremely flexible but it's nice nevertheless.)

If I were to choose, I would say that this is the best high grade Gundam I have ever built/owned. It looks really nice even without paint. It does have quite a few stickers but they stick well so far. The Nu is definitely worth its price and I'm thinking about getting the Hi-Nu. I would recommend this Gundam to anyone who likes Universal Century.

Expect more reviews soon!

MG RX-78-3 ver 2.0 review

Hooray! The epic review of the G-3 is here!

(Sorry about the low light in the pictures.)

Front View:
Back View:

I decided not to use the ankle guards because they rattle and fall off easily.

Bust View:

Does the break show up too well?

Epic head, right?

(Wow, the purple looks really blue in these pictures.)

Ultimate inner frame of doom!

Ultimate bust of doom!

Ultimate back of doom!

(This is getting old isn't it?)

Weapons excluding the Beam Javelin.

(I don't want to build it until I get some pink paint.)

(What's with all the parentheses?)

The extremely beautiful shield.

The decal is pretty crooked isn't it?

The Super Napalm launcher that does not have a decal because I messed it up!

The Beam rifle looks really cool with the matte coating.

The incredible decal on the Beam Rifle.

The Hyper Bazooka also looks very cool with the matte coating.

The decal on the bazooka.

(Why is this picture sideways?)

(Why am I asking so many questions?)

Fully armed G-3!

There are some weight issues with the SNL attached but it's not a big deal.

The back of the fully armed G-3.

The pegs on the weapons are compatible with the shield sockets and vice-versa.

Both weapons can be stored on the back or on the inside of the shield.

Since the pegs are also square, the weapons can be flipped vertical.

Ooooh...

" Die!!!!!!!!!"

The G-3 also has incredible hip mobility as shown here.

And here.

(But you have to remove the skirt armor piece.)

This Gundam can actually do a full split!

Some cool shots of the shoulder mobility.

The final shot of the Gundam.

"Die Char!"

Cool action pose.

The palm has a peg on it that can be attached to any of its weapons.

To wrap it up, this Gundam does not take too much effort to make it look good.

It is definately worth its price of 4,200 Yen (although I got it for 2,800).
