I also pre-ordered the RX-78-2 PG Unleashed. I'm terrified of even opening this Exia box lol.

It looks great, it built great (save for the head), it feels great (save for the head). It's just that the articulation sucks, the parts are flimsy, and both of the advertised weapons are completely useless. I WANT to love this kit, especially since the Tristar blew away my expectations for HGs; but the time and effort to fix these issues are apparent.

I actually liked this kit, but it was one of the earlier kits I bought. The RG Char's z'gok is really good though

Pffffffft, I tried testing the articulation in the legs and the right leg just popped right off.

What a fucking joke.

So I put together the High grade Char's Zaku II. It's Char's signature Mobile Suit so I was pretty excited after getting the wrap off the box and all the gates. With that being said....

I HATED this kit.
I hate it.
I hate it.
I hate it.
I hate it.
Waiter! Waiter! Please take this back, this is not what I ordered!

Both the head fin and the mouth piece are so flimsy, they fall right off; I'm going to need to get glue for just these two pieces. Wait no! I need to get glue for the hand to connect to the rifle because it broke off making the rifle completely useless, the weight of the rifle completely rips the two pieces of the hand apart, I can't use the bazooka now either so either Char's posing no weapon, or just the shitty axe.

Speaking of the axe, it doesn't fit properly in the side waist like it says in the manual (the previous HG Zaku Tristar I built earlier doesn't have this problem at all), I actually need to fit it in the butt in order for it fit anywhere "properly" even if that's not where that's supposed to go. I don't event know what's supposed to go in the buttocks slot. The bazooka has a holder slot on the backpack which is nice, but the rifle gets absolutely nothing similar even though there's so much free real estate on the other side of the back pack.

The arms stick out from the body pretty far and it's quite noticeable, but God forbid the head get's the same treatment. It's far more restricted in movement than the Tristar and they're basically the same Mobile Suit and model kit! Reading the manual step-by-step for both and you'll find very little that's different. I learned the head wasn't properly attached yet because it kept falling off and when I finally snapped it into place properly it can't even turn 90 degrees whereas I can get the Tristar to go full circle.

I just don't get how two extremely similar HGs can be so different in quality, especially with the signature/more famous MS being the problem child. I didn't even put any more stickers other than two on because I was so disappointed in this kit.

Now that you mention it, I love history and I also love just being an observer towards whatever events unfold around me.

Turn A

The Correct Century is the BEST AU timeline, and makes all Gundam timelines somewhat canon to its lore. Also, the overall story is maximum comfy.

The Turn A MG came out in 2007. The damn thing had incredibly loose/weak joints, parts that just fell off, and was an overall flimsy model that just fell apart when you looked at it.

Given the year it came out, it is a bit on the older side; but for also being technically a special release (Bandai’s 100th MG), this was a massive disappointment. Especially since the Turn A is my personal favorite.

I put together the HG Zaku High Mobility Type. How is it that a HG Origin model is more durable, fun to build, and easier to hold/manipulate than the MG Turn A? That thing was an absolute pile of shit.

Also I bought a RG Nu-Gundam off HLJ but it's backordered so I have no idea when that's going to be ready to ship.

@Nick: I have some amount in savings but not much, just enough for a major setback but nothing like retirement.

I agree that people should stop holding and just get out while they can. IIRC, Melvin Capital already said they closed out so I don’t know who they’re thinking us still doubling down.

This....might actually appease fans during the wait.

Khara has hinted at the release of an Evangelion 3.0 Complete Records Collection (CRC). This was primarily held off because it supposedly contained spoilers for 3.0+1.0 as well. Khara's second twitter account also shows some pictures/pages from this new material.

It would be better, it would be a far more intelligent decision.

But then I couldn't say that I made money off a well known meme/joke.

Wouldn't it be better to actually invest that money?
Just buy this and wait for 3 years

At day 16 I’m suspending the count up. It appears Khara & Anno have little interest in giving any update on the movie and stubbornly refuse to appease their growingly frustrated fan base. Maybe an announcement will occur on February 7th, but know Khara’s recent track record, this is beyond wishful thinking.

So how did everyone enjoy Hedge Fund investors getting absolutely BTFOed over the last week? Melvin Capital reportedly lost at least $5.05 BILLION.

The frustration is more from the fact that other movies are airing and coming out, so it feels like Anno and Co. are just morally grandstanding, especially when they’ve already had their own private screening of the movie and comes across as excluding others who have waited eight years for closure.

I know people are stupid and all, but I struggle to fathom being angry enough at a pushed back launch date to bitch about it on twitter or whatever other garbage is out there.
