Posted at Dalong already was the manual for the Bandai Master Grade GN-X from Gundam 00 Season 1.

Saw this in the mall a few days ago, a bootleg Puzzle of a mecha that surprisingly looks a lot like a Gundam. Initially I thought that it was Freedom Gundam from Gundam Seed Destiny, turns out that the knee and head antenna design are different.

I mentioned before in this blog that I had a Dinobot Swoop toy that I had bought when I was a kid. At that time I really wanted to buy Snarl since he was my most favorite of the Dinobots. Chiefly in part also because the stegosaurus was my most favorite dinosaur. That was when I was into my “dinosaur” loving phase in the second grade. Yep, you could fall in love with dinosaurs without having had to watch Jurassic Park *snicker*

Update (02/11/2010): Whoa, it seems like it has been extended further till the 28th of February and because of which I also realized that its a leap year this year *snicker*

Update (02/04/2010): Looks like the sale has been extended till the 11th of February.

Online Anime and Hobby Seller, Hobby Search, announced that they were having a sale from February 2 to 10, 2010 to commemorate the start of their SAL shipping service.

Picking up again from where I left off on my quest to build the 1/100 Gundam Astray Blue Frame. I was a bit preoccupied these past few weeks with other problems that it gave me no drive to build the Gundam Astray Blue Frame. Thank God though that those were finally resolved, thus allowing me to build up the needed concentration again to build this beautiful kit.

Looks like the 1/72 Cannon Fodder VF-27 model kit made by Bandai has a name already, VF-27β Lucifer Normal type. Saw these pics over at Amiami, plus its product page over at Bandai Hobby Site. Selling price over at Amiami is 3,980 yen. At Hobby Link Japan its selling for 5,500 yen. 5225 yen at Hobby Search, 4125 yen over at HWJapan

Gundam Unicorn based mecha are coming out of the wood works thanks to the upcoming Gundam Unicorn movie that’s scheduled this year. One of the mecha being churned out by Bandai is the High Grade RGZ-95 ReZEL of the EFSF. This is the regular cannon fodder version, there is supposed to be a command version coming out soon. From my understanding is that this unit was born out of the desire to mass produce the Zeta Gundam. It was based out of the Methuss’ frame, hence its ability to transform to aircraft mode.

Shinn Asuka’s Force Impulse Gundam from the Gundam Seed Destiny series of anime. Launching from the Minerva battleship of ZAFT are the Chest Flyer, Core Splendor, Leg Flyer and Force Silhouette pack which merge to form the Force Impulse Gundam. There is another variant of this, which is the Sword Impulse Gundam which can be had by Shinn by changing only the weapons package of the Gundam. When Shinn Asuka moved on to the Destiny Gundam, the Force Impulse was taken over by Luna Maria Hawke.
