Ohh I've been lightly searching for something else, as gunpla doesn't speak to me design wise

zeether.bsky.social•27 days ago

VOTOMS is cool! You should watch it imo

wanderingmind.bsky.social•27 days ago

VOTOMS mentioned!

jaysartcorner.bsky.social•27 days ago

We shall call it, Votpla.

piratesnori.bsky.social•27 days ago

*Incredibles Dad* Pla is Pla!

whitewulfe.bsky.social•27 days ago

Eh, it's a neat looking kit either way. PlaMo (Plastic Model kits) probably works as a better all encompassing term anyways.

Either way, enjoy your vacation, and enjoy all the gachas, and especially food (and gachas)

doomington.bsky.social•27 days ago

I didn't even realize the photo was what you meant when you mentioned gunpla, I just thought "oh neat, got some Votom stuff too"

If you dig robots, then Votoms is a fun watch. (I really like the designs for the mech, and the story is a fun scifi adventure.)

okaminodin.bsky.social•27 days ago

Noooo u're aight man, most people on the hobby call all model kits gunpla

pocky469.bsky.social•27 days ago

I am an old Gundam head, and I say "close enough".

After a while, all of the war story with cool robot shows kind of blend together... >.>;

vtncomics.bsky.social•27 days ago

PlaMo

Plastic Model

pandorahex.bsky.social•27 days ago

If it's not manufactured in the BANDAI NAMCO plant it's just sparkling model kit.

magicalgirlmina.bsky.social•26 days ago

XD I gotta remember that one!

aldy.bsky.social•27 days ago

Series is called VOTOMS, non gundam plastic model kits are just plamo, as in plastic models

mupod.bsky.social•27 days ago

A lot of what I have built is Bandai stuff under the HG/RG label that is non-Gundam (Super Robot Wars in particular). So I wasn't sure how to tag it, but it's nice to see people are fine with just throwing it under the gunpla umbrella. Incidentally they have an HG Scopedog I really want...

danieljennagrouse.bsky.social•27 days ago

It’s only gunpla if it comes from the gundam region of Japan, otherwise it’s just sparkling plamo.

danieljennagrouse.bsky.social•27 days ago

I will say, if you are interested in seeing what gunpla/plamo is like, the Entry Grade/EG kits (especially the one of the original Gundam) are perfect for that. Also the pokepla kits are simple, cheap, and very cute.

*Hollow eyes* 1900 yen. And a version I don't know about...

😭

iiomarsp.bsky.social•27 days ago

Mistakes happen so its all g

urbandragondice.bsky.social•27 days ago

Plamo. Gunpla - Gundam plastic. Plamo - plastic Models.

Gunpla is a brand name.

hawkatana.bsky.social•27 days ago

Hey, VOTOMS is good. You should really watch it.

wermeleon.bsky.social•27 days ago

you should watch VOTOMS, love the animes

scolopendra.bsky.social•27 days ago

Hey, no worries. VOTOMS is cool as hell.

zanestheargent.bsky.social•27 days ago

At this point Gunpla is like Cleenex. "You meant tissu-" yah no i said cleenex, every tissue is cleenex.

dragonringguy.bsky.social•26 days ago

Isn't a votom what we call a twink with an accent?

bramslambreakfast.bsky.social•27 days ago

VOTOMs mentioned

bookphage.bsky.social•27 days ago

It's all gunpla if you use it with a gundam

mearn4d10.bsky.social•27 days ago

Nah, you’re just one of today’s 10k!!

murdockmoogle.bsky.social•27 days ago

It's okay Jo. I dig giant robots too. <3 All giant robots are nice.

vellik.bsky.social•27 days ago

I mean, now I've learned about another mecha anime that could be of interest to my friend! I dig the aesthetic!

drakonhru.bsky.social•27 days ago

Also the rpg system heavy gear is directly inspired by votom.....there is also a great game for pc available.....its just quite old the first one from 95 and the second one 99....basically mecha suit who have also rollerblades as travel mode

twilight-sys.bsky.social•27 days ago
