MS-14S Gelgoog of Char Aznable ver.2.0

Char Aznable’s Custom Gelgoog from Mobile Suit Gundam. I’m still in the process of watching Mobile Suit Gundam, having recently borrowed a set of DVD’s from a friend. So my knowledge on the Gelgoog is next to nothing. I’m only basing what little I know on the MG manual posted at Dalong.

MS-06R-1A Zaku II Shin Matsunaga Custom Color Guide
Update (04/25/2010): Translated construction manual of Shin Matsunaga’s Zaku II can be found here.

If I were to judge on box art alone, I would really end up buying this Master Grade version of the MS-06R-1A Zaku II Shin Matsunaga Custom. Really great rendition of a Zaku in action. Good thing too that the actual kit came out nicely *snicker*… still, I’d be tempted though to frame the box cover and hang it on my wall… hehehe

English Translation of Model Kit Color Guides found in the Manual

Took stock of the model kit color guides that have been translated to English from the original posted at the construction manual. Found out that there’s a lot there already. Decided to create a list for easier look up. Will update this page periodically whenever a new model kit’s color guide gets translated to English.

Bandai Master Grade Amuro Ray's RX-93 Nu Gundam English Translation of Color Guide

Amuro Ray’s RX-93 Nu Gundam from the anime series Char’s Counter Attack. Definitely a very peculiar design for me because the fin funnels are placed off center from the back shoulder. It kinda breaks a paradigm for the need always for symmetric design in order to equate a sense of balance. I still prefer the design of Amuro Ray’s RX-93 v2 Hi Nu Gundam over this.
