Icarus's blog: "Somantics"

It is at
least
100 out

I was promised 85 high.

So I'm quitting at the halfway point, snacking on some ceranno,

getting my front yard done in 2 hours (1 hour of break to prevent heat stroke) is good for me even on an 85 degree day.

I found a few beautiful things in my travels though.

A conversion kit.
$89 on an $80 kit
mixed feelings
over 150 new parts.

Hi Nu Full armor conversion.

Now, there's a 1/144 conversion for the Full armor Nu Gundam from Bandai, there's a 1/144 and 1/100 conversion for Hi-Nu

It looks about the same (different paint scheme, and not as many funnels)

I have never seen a Hi-Nu full armor conversion
also
kinda weirded out that I can find this on tatsu-hobby
but not the Rx-78 full armor conversion

not that I think I would use the RX full armor conversion.

At least not on my G3. And ... you can just buy Full Armor Gundam as a standalone 1/100. No hacking of an RX-78. No expensive conversion.

Also a conversion I wasn't aware of the Zeta II.

I like it, but I'm not foaming at the mouth.

I dunno... I owe it to Amuro to get at least a Nu Gundam

do I dare convert a Hi Nu some day?

In other news the 1/60 Gouf

1/48 Gundam

are nearly a done deal... yeah... I think the Gouf went up in price. Sucks. I'm gonna look at suppliers later.
