I dunno why, but the proportions and the whole dwarf thing is really amusing.

Never thought you're a Gundam fan. Awesome.
And yeah, this Gundam is actually from Gundam 0083: Stardust Memory. Kou Uraki piloted this when the GP01 got its butt kicked in space. THe Full Vernian mode was added to allow better maneuverability in Space. It did well, even going up against the GP02 Physalis. Sadly the mobile suit got destroyed along with the GP02.
I used to own Gundam action figures myself such as Wing Zero, Altron and Endless Waltz Wing Zero.

Well the only series I've seen is SD Gundam Force but yeah, Gundams are freaking awesome!
Ah, interesting story. XD I am interested in watching another Gundam show soon though. Which do you recommend I start out with?
And are these the MSIA ones you're talking about?

If there's any Gundam series you should start with, start with the original Mobile Suit Gundam featuring the all-mighty RX-78-2 Gundam piloted by Amuro Ray.
and I like SD Gundam Force. Some of the episodes are rather hilarious and they pay tribute to other Gundam shows like the original Gundam and Gundam Wing.

Ah. When did that show come out?
Yeah, that's what I like about it. I love how the characters are all based on a specific Gundam model but with lots of tweaks (ex: Zero is the Wing Gundam but with a knight-like appearance and a cape instead of actual wings) and I love how it references a lot of different Gundam shows. It's like the Transformers Animated of the Gundam franchise! :3

Mobile Suit Gundam first came out in 1979 I believe. Good times but it didn't hit the US shores until 2000 after the release of Gundam Wing and G Gundam.
As for SD Gundam, I think it was in 2002.

Do you have any MG models?

no. I have an SD Model kit and this one small model kit that stands like 5ish inches tall but that's it for the kits. I prefer the action figures.

Ever think of getting those larger sophistacted models? Some are only as expensive as a pony set with their toy castle.

Possibly.... I'm afraid I might start collecting them all in the end though....

It'll worth more than the ponies (and not that much more expensive by comparison)

batosan In reply to AleximusPrime [2013-09-18 12:26:03 +0000 UTC]
Between 7 to 9 inches depending on the type of Mech. Master grades stand 10 or higher.

I have only purchased kits from them.....I'm unsure if they carry the old "MSA" toy line.
