    Hey! Like I said, I'd do this when I got my hinges. So here's the fruits of my efforts so far. Only halfway there right now.

    Now, my question to you is: Do the hinges feel a little loose to you? I feel like the door pieces are a little heavy :/ And it's not a difference in hinges, I have the exact same kind as you

    $8.30 from GGInfinite. Took a week to ship, free shipping. Pretty cool seeing as no local stores have anything like it.

    So is there anything I can do? I was thinking about slapping some Future floor finish on the hinge, but I'm not sure if that'll do more bad than good.

    Edit: And if you're wondering why there's a skeletal bulkhead it's because I had a helluva time putting the ball socket back in, so yeah....

    Does anybody know where else I can find these. GGInfinite has been sold out of these since June. Are these available at all hobby shops or just ones that deal with Gundum? Thanks to whoever tells me. Again great job on Bulkhead IcedPhoenix.

    for the hood i though one could make a hinge for the front windscreen, and still leave the hood connected to it, that way it would add mass to the chest as well as moving it up...thats an idea though, i dont have the mold
