    I can't wait to see them to be honest.

    No significant work as of late except adding to the backlog. Added RG Gold Frame Astray Amatsu Mina and my first P-Bandai - Flauros Calamity War colors. I really need to get building...

    The kids and I did spend quite a while watching Build Fighters Try this weekend, though. We got up to the mid-season upgrades. So far, it's had a little something for everyone:
    -Older son finally saw Gundam The End in action
    -Younger son saw some really cool SD's that he wants
    -I got to see the Transient Gundam

    Man, honestly for the light heartedness and fun. I love the show. When I need something more real, Iron Blooded Orphans is there. The special for Gundam Build Fighters Try was a little predictable, but still good.

    Not dead, just been busy, plus my workspace has been taken over, so I'm going to have to rearrange things a bit. Really looking forward to that RG Unicorn...

    Got it a couple of months ago. Had help from the grandparents because it was for my son's birthday. Both of us have been working on various projects with it and I'm trying to dial in settings for the best print quality. This is one of the reasons I've not been doing as much Gunpla- as you can see, my work area is.....occupied.
    For my stuff, I've mainly been printing add-ons and upgrades for the printer itself (how meta) and some props from Destiny. Those shoulders are the first TF-related thing I've done with it, but they won't be the last...

    Tammies got a RG Unicorn Gundam in stock and I pretty much dropped everything to start working on it. I've got some silicon lubricant on order because a couple of the joints are so tight I'm afraid the parts will break. Otherwise it's going well. I have the inner frame built up to about the point of these pictures:

    I haven't built the face, antennae, or backpack yet. That inner psycho frame is so awesome that I almost don't want to put the armor on it...

    The silicon oil seems to have done the trick. used it on some of the other tight RG joints and everything seems fine now. I need to take some pictures of this thing before I start putting armor because that frame is just gorgeous. Armor is also going to hinder the movement of this Beast of Pose-ability...
    (also, I started watching the show)
