MG (Clear part campaign) Gouf Custom

SO its been a longs a time since I've posted any decent review post, and I may have posted a few filler, which makes me no better than a Naruto rerun at channel 25(Orz I hurt myself). So let me make up to you by giving another long MG review, well its been long overdue anyway =P

*Model Itself*


*Body View*

Despite my many gripes at the articulation, It looks really good just standing there(would have been better if polished and topcoated it^^;)The Model has a pretty good balance, due to its weight and bulk, but seriously, its not like its gonna carry something extremely heavy now, right? >=]




Oh and Packard Norris is Included W00T, To bad I dont have appropriate paints to paint him with^^;;

*Head*



Yeah bad lighting, and I kinda blurred the visor with the polishing cream a bit. But need less to say, the mono eye design is striking. BTW, NEVER USE THE EYE STICKER AT ALL!!!


It can turn its head 360, but It cant tilt its head up nor down

The scalp is removable to allow posability of the eye. This is the real pain I have with this model, you must have fingernails or something thin yet tough to move it, Its a hassle, I know.



Thats about how much I can move it^^;;

*Cockpit section*


"Don't look away, you'll only see this twice"

Its a lot more fiddling than I though it would *Fingernails required*


Didnt bother putting the pilot. Besides, It keeps falling off, and The pilot is helmeted, I want a Norris Pilot fig not some random cannon fodder dude.

*Thruster Pack*


Movable thrusters, that is all, I really wanted to paint it, but alas, all I have is blue paint...

*Articulation*

"no amount of exercise, will do you good"






This is an old model, well not incredibly old, but you shouldn't be expecting such requirements, that's just cruel

*Accessories*

*Beam whip/(Grappling hook)Shock whip*




"Horseplaying with equipment"

This, deffinitely, doesn't, look like the tentacle like heat rod used by other Gouf models. But hey the theme of 8th MS team is "realism"(a long dead term in Gundam timeline)Its really more of a grappling hook with a built in taser.


"Spider Gouf, Spider Gouf, does whatever a Spider Gouf, does"

*Insert cool Yet blandly displayed action scene*



*Gatling Shield/BFSNSG(Big F**king Shield aNd Sword GUN*

"4 in 1 pack"

Some insane cluster of equipment there, but heck there very awesome, if not practical for every day killing >=]



*The Gatling Gun(Not sasha)*

Main F**King reason I bought this Gun- I mean Guy. I think the rest is safe explanatory, also Drum fed. Its unfortunate the gun can't disconnect from the shield like it did in the anime


*3-Barrel 35mm Machine Gun*

It shoots bullets, not beams, also a considerable replacement for the *Vulcan fingers* The old Goufs used(this weapon was carried over to the design of GSD's gouf)



Sheild shath w/ sword

*I actually have to disassemble the gun to just get the shield* Its a Regular Gouf equipment, too bad the shield was purely solid

*Hands*

Its the replaceable fingers type hands, kinda fiddly and loose sometimes, and you don't need the trigger finger set

*Action Poses*

*Looking Gallant*

"DAKKADAKKADAKKADAKKADAKKADAKKADAKKADAKKA!!!"

"SEIG ZEON!"

*Insert awesome quote*

*Insert awesome quote*

"This is my mecha, this is my gun. This is fight­ing, this is for fun."
*fears of getting shot at by violent moralists*

Oh Did I forgot to mention This was a Clear Part Campaign *points at the obvious* well here it is

*CLEAR PARTS*




At least it looks cooler than freedoms clear parts^^;;


You people should have seen this from a long mile by now

"Who said you have enough DAKKA"

BTW just a personal note, I screwed up ALL the Decals on these guy, and I went lazy with the tube section, seeing as I lost 5 and found 2 of those pipes, and I was afraid of losing anymore. Its a great Kit, for something like 40 bucks maybe, and not bad for a price if your Norris Fan.....

Or Not =P

Yay another filler Wishlist post, another Yay, yay......

So heres a filler, Because the Weekend is COMING again*works on his costiume and cosplay* So while I'm at it, enjoy my wishlist(that gets dumped in the currently unattainable section)



Composite ver ka : Commander Haruhi's C. G. P. H.T. D. B. U. E.

BD77's Haruhi, would be SOOOOOO HAPPY when she finds out she gets a Mecha of her own=moar fun HAHAHAHAHA

RD Dann of Thursday

Wake up, Dann!


I love Gun X sword so much Im considering it


RD Destiny Gundam

First My reason is Im a cheapass, second, This is Probably The best set of wings Destiny ever has, And No the MG looked to bulky for my taste.


Forgot the name^^;;;

Forgot what mecha was this, but it was from escaflowne, and OMG it can transform!!


RD TauBan

Actually considering watching the anime despite my bias against Heroman(But my respect for bones studio is recuperating) and Asura crying(which was horrible), But, This mecha is just so, so, so FLAMBOYANT!!!






Formania Nausicaa Gunship

First, Shame on you ppl who never heard of Nausicaa, and Shame on me for not watching the film, But I Did red the manga so half shame to me. Flight, being one of Hayao Miyazaki themes, resulted having most of his works include interesting machines that take flight, minus the broomstick^^;;,I really love the Gliders and Gunship due to its design, and the seperation it has from modern aircraft. Best parts, they included a f*cking stand and the wings have an opening mechanism

1/144 Astray Blue( musume) frame WISP 5

"I believe, we may have a problem"


Not much progress on the arms, in fact, its bursting with problems


Instead of having the shoulder armor attach to, well dud, the shoulder, I just had to attach it to the arms, because the old shoulder pieces for the figma, Broke...

So I have a few questions to ask:
*Should I clean up the 00 joint that serves as the joint armor for the shoulder?
*Or leave it as it is, unpreppede, I mean, Its not gonna show up anyway once the armor's been attached?


Had to fill in the gaps, with my remaining white putty


Good news is, I finally finished the whole Skirt armor. It was a lot of fiddling and finger sticking problems, but heck Im happy with the result

Random stuff:



A Belated "Get well soon" pic for BD77 and her Figma Marrisa


For those who may have been wondering(about the tiniest detail) of why I've changed my old username to my REAL name, is because...




I made it into my original Character, still finalizing the sketch, but there he is
