MG Exia and Astray Blue Frame Gundams

This year I am again getting some Gundams for Christmas for myself.  As you probably know that I have a big appetite for almost anything master grade, it is only a matter of time before I break down and get more Gundams….

At first, I wasn’t sure if I like Gundam Exia enough to get the MG Gunpla.  But since Bandai announced the MG GN-X, I am again interested in the master grade Gunplas of Gundam 00.

As for the Gundam Astray Blue Frame, I actually have not followed the manga of the side-story but the MG version of the Astray is definitely a must have.  I have to admit that these gunplas might stay in the box for years but I think I will try to make some this holiday season.

Speaking of Gunplas, I usually visit these sites for release info:

1. Hobby Search (English)
2. Bandai Hobby (Japanese)
3. SRW Hotnews (of course this site has more than Gunpla info)
4. Tom Ho’s Gundam Blog

Some sites I visit the following to drool over models that other modellers create:

1. NetModelers
2. Mesarion
3. G-Custom
4. ebasenet
5. S.L.’s blag
6. A2 Craft
7. Naowks
8. BUN.Chan
9. シンたろーの模型製作記Ver.5.3
10. N.G.T. Factory Japan

If you are a snap and play kind of modeller:

In case I will start building gunplas again and need a refresher:

1. Danny’s Gundam Modelling Tutorial
2. FichtenFoo’s How To Build Master Grade Gundams

You can also find video tutorials like (videos posted by S.L.):

MG Gundam RX-78 version Ka part 1

MG Gundam RX-78 version Ka part 2

MG RX-178 Gundam Mk II part 1

MG RX-178 Gundam Mk II part 2

There are a lot more videos posted by S.L.

Hopefully after watching all these video tutorials, everyone has enough education to start building gunplas with ease :)

Finally, wish you all a Merry Gunpla Christmas!!
