Same here. I actually kind of hated the show at times. They had some good concepts but it was so bleak and left me feeling so empty I just couldn’t understand what the point of it was. I also didn’t like the MS designs at all or the main character. As for 0083, I love the MS designs! Those grunts look so damn good, I’m gonna be picking up every last one of them. I still can’t believe they never did the Jesta and Jesta Cannon from Unicorn.
I loved Code Geass since it first aired, but was strict on limiting my toy collecting to Transformers and small 1-2 figure representations of things I enjoyed that werent transformers. In the past year and a half, Ive focused a lot more on anime stuff and branching out, as a collector So Ive been slowly picking up old Code Geass figures (at ridiculously inflated ebay prices) and just got in this amazing specimen. The "Night Giga Fortress" Sutherland Sieg. Much bigger than I expected. Good thing Im building a bigger toy room lol
I suppose you missed the comment about building a new room. Drywall dust everywhere during construction I gave up my toy room so that my daughters could have separate rooms, which has led to renovating three rooms in the house and the construction of a new room in the basement.
Yeah, its a mess. We have three rooms, a large, a medium, and a small. The small was my toy room and office, the girls shared the largest, and me + my wife had the medium. Now that they're 11 and 13, they 'need their own space' and have a harder time cohabitating. So the toy room became a bed room, our medium bedroom became one of theirs, and their large one is becoming ours. With lots of painting and renovation along the way, because Im hoping this is the last of this for a LONG time lol. We have a large unfinished basement with the perfect structure for refinishing. Im building a few walls, adding an electric heater or fireplace for heat, and making a new toy room almost twice the size of my current one. Though, cost-wise and time-wise, there might be a little bit of a wait between finishing the bedrooms and starting that. Im on bedroom #3 and almost done with that right now. And we had to buy a new fridge/stove after our old stove died out, a few weeks ago. Home ownership can really suck, at times
Ha! You got me dude! But Bandai did in the predecessor line, “Mobile Suit In Action” as I got it along with the Elmeth (with La La FX too!) X)
The MSiA line was magical in just all the weird, oddball things they did that you'd never expect to happen now. True, and man do I want that Xamel. But I just can't justify the cost of the RD one compared to what the old MSiA one cost. Still, the chances of a Big Zam are honestly pretty slim since they don't do many of these super-huge ones, even if they do seem to be getting more adventurous in general.
To be fair the xamel and nightingale were pretty unexpected in my opinion. But you see right about the msia line. To this day it is still my favorite gundam whatever line they've come out with. Just something about it. The msia wing zero still eludes me to this day I will have it one day. I still really wanna get all the mobile armors from the line, one of these decades I'll look into it
And Bandai is marking its territory on my wallet in Hasbro's face right now. Holy... Just wow at the reveals. Yes to all. Lupus Rex looks simply amazing. Hm zaku for shin and Johnny are two I have been patiently waiting for since the black tri stars. I don't know if I'm in for more Eva or not. The mafex releases have me intrigued but I honestly feel like I'm good on Eva's for now but I'm glad to see them finally continue that side. Perfect zeong and gundams will be must haves for me. But price may factor in, perfect zeong is a big ole boy. I had to wait until bbts put the neo zeong set on clearance before I picked it up after all. The blue full armor is also a must for me. I want one blue and two heavy to go with my three standard full armor gundams. The 0083 stuff is looking so damn good. Two gm cannon II, four gm custom, and at least two Dom tropen. Powered gm will definitely be bought but I haven't decided if I will spring for a second one or not. Like I said, if they'll make the grunts I will army build the best I can. Display room status- due to the unforeseen problem that I simply had no idea of just how much I have bought over the last five years, the progress of just trying to organize has been catastrophically slow. In fact I have found figures that I simply have no recall whatsoever that I purchased. Which makes me a bit weary about how many unintentional doubles I may have stashed in that room filled with boxes. But until I get the furniture in the rest of my place up to standards or at least settled in really good, I'm putting off the expensive shelves for now. But I'll see how the next month goes maybe I'll have some time to spare to crack open some boxes and get busy figuring out just what I have.
What's a reasonable price for the GP-02 and where's a good place to order in the US? For some reason Amazon has removed it from their site.
