Anyone here does Gundam scale modelling?

I recently completed my Master Grade Black Tri Star Zaku II.
I'm thinking of getting a Rick Dom next :P

Ah yes, a fine craft it is, collecting & building Gundam Scale models :)I know someone who has his entire room filled with many Gundam Figures. He started out collecting the high end kind, the ones with good quality plastic, then for a short time he opted to collecting those with transparent parts due to financial limitations at one point in his life. Nowadays he goes out buying & building those master grade models, those kinds with many more parts. I'm amazed at how patient he is with his passion like that.

I could never spend money on figures and building parts, but some people can just tolerate it, I guess...

With the Master Grade ones yes, with the others no, he just applies the stickers that came with the box.Incidentally, I at one point got interested in building Megaman model kits but stopped after I realized the plastic used to connect certain bits, specifically the forearms to the elbow were made of so cheap rubbery plastic that cracks with friction :( Also that same plastic for some odd reason disintegrates into powdery white dust after a while :(I wasted good money on those cheap pieces of crap! :'(

I used to do this,but can't afford them anymore. I have about 15-20 right now, all HG model. The first one I made was God Gundam. My fav is Gundam HeavyArms from Gundam Wing series (spend 10 hours making it)
