How does it stack up against some of the other big 3rd Party kits you ask? No one asked, but for Science! Ft. In Era+ Lizard, PG Exia, Monument Repair Type and the undisputed chonker Einta Industry Sky Defender #Gundam #Gunpla

Infinite Dimension Nemesis arrived! It's a big kit! Can for scale. You know a build is going to be impressive when the box has a handle #Gundam #Gunpla

I may have slowed down as I wrestle mental health but the pre-orders coming in certainly have not! My #InfiniteDimension Nemesis has shipped today! Happy Valentine's to me! #Gundam #Gunpla

So I decided to go with the Hi-Nu wings instead of the influx wings. The influx wings were 2 HUGE pieces with terrible color separation and weird half finished looking joints. Oh well, onto decaling next! #Gundam #Gunpla

It's a cool take on the Hi-Nu shield for the Influx, extra thrusters and an extra fin! And this things definitely about weapons over travel as the rear fuel tanks are physical swords! #Gundam #Gunpla

Ok, getting back into the swing of things. I decided - obviously for those who know my tastes - that I'm going with the double shoulder cannons on the HG Hi-Nu Influx. #Gundam #Gunpla

Ok trying to get back in the swing of things and just grabbed a WIP that interested me. So I'm gonna try and finish this HG Hi-Nu Brave Bootleg. Don't know why it spoke to me but it did. #Gundam #Gunpla

Sorry I've been absent #Gundam #Gunpla folks, lots of life going on and seasonal depression. But popped on to say Asgard is at GMS, 6 left in the US Warehouse! gundamcentralshop.com/products/1-1...

A very small hobby update today as the kiddo has a stomach bug and it's all I could muster. But I advocate that even a small session is progress! I got the shoulders of the YUNQUE Blue/Grey version done. #Gunpla #Gundam

Today's hobby time overlapped with family time! My 3 year old has become a huge Pokémon fan and I love model kits so this was the perfect activity. He did surprisingly well! Managed to line pieces up and just needed dad to squeeze. Don't mind his nub marks... He's 3 :D #Gunpla #Pikachu

I appreciate I'm all over the place at the moment - it's a reflection of the state of my mind. Today the latest #SNAA arrived with Lancelot. I'll be building it like the example in pic 4 with the straight horns and wielding swords, because Lancelot. #Gundam #Gunpla

Hobby update for the day, got the torso done and so was able to add the head too. Really liking the design of this kit, and the way the torso layered up was a fun build. BUT I did have to glue a piece as it wouldn't stay in place, front right blue top but in the pics. #Gundam #Gunpla

Got the waist section done last night, interesting that it has a waist then a central torso bit and next I'll be building the actual torso. Dig the MGS styled spine on this. #Gundam #Gunpla

Low-key glad I took photos of the inner parts of the frame and the detail on it as none of it is visible now. Which is kind of a shame. The only bit still visible is on the knee joint and that's super plain. The design admittedly is cool though and definitely growing on me. #Gundam #Gunpla

Now, at a glance you'd think these are Real Grade legs. They are not, however they have similar details and gribblies. Pretty impressive inner frame for the YunQue Blue/Grey version. They even have some moving gimmicks. #Gundam #Gunpla

Alright first night building on the Yunque Blue/Grey version. I've only built these handful of components and I've already had glue out. The back of the head and back of the feet just refused to stay together without a huge gap so I glued them tight. #Gunpla #Gundam

I cracked out the OCR-122 YUNQUE MODEL KIT blue/grey version last night. And thought I'd share some of the contents. Instructions are fold out like a HG, it has rubber hands which you usually see in musume kits and it comes with decals and a stat card! #Gundam #Gunpla

And the obligatory detail close-ups. #Gundam #Gunpla

I'm doing #ThrowbackThursday as I continue to wrestle with my motivation. Here's the Kotobukiya JGSDF Type 07- III Tank Nacchin (Grey Ver.). A fun little model kit, articulation is limited but it has cat feet and hefty tail to help hold it up. Included decals are nice too. #Gundam #Gunpla
