HGUC Gundam Ez8 Construction Manual & Color Guide

Released this April by Bandai was the Gundam Ez8 from 08th MS Team OVA series as a 1/144 High Grade model kit. The 08th MS Team OVA is one of my favorite Gundam series. It brought a breath of fresh air into the Gundam franchise by introducing the Ground War aspect of the campaign and the need for team cooperation in fighting the war.

Bandai HG 1/144 RX-79[G] Gundam Ground Type English Manual and Color Guide

groundtype.jpg

The RX-79[G] Gundam Ground Type which was the main mobile suit featured in 08th MS Team OVA. Quite a good series actually if you ask me because of the unique way with which they featured a side story. The conflict in this one was set in an obscure jungle and because of which the dynamics of warfare were slightly different than normal.

Bandai HG 1/144 RX-79(G) Gundam The Ground War Set English Manual & Color Guide

rx79g.jpg

A 1/144 High Grade model kit set consisting of the mecha from the Mobile Suit Gundam: The 08th MS Team anime OVA. Namely the RX-79(G) and some Hover trucks. I finished watching the 08th MS Team recently. I started it last year then only got past the first episode. I think its because I found it slow starting that got me bored with. Despite that, I'd say that it was indeed a good anime series in my book, not spectacular but good.
