Greetings! Another blog post for today. For now we will check out some of the best Gunpla displays at this year's Gundam Modeling Kit Competition 2016. It is a yearly event organized by (the assholes at) Bankee Trading and Gundam Philippines. It's some sort of preview for GBWC but I guess that's just me. Too bad I wasn't able to join because of reasons. And then after checking out some displays I felt that desire, that fire once again to make my own custom Gunpla and join a competition but then again laziness once again so dammit.
Anyway, here are some of the photos that I took during the event. If you see your build here then congratulations! You are very creative, and considered a veteran at your work. But if not, sorry. And I apologize in advance if your build wasn't that much appealing to me. So enough babbling, let's check out some epic looking Gunpla builds!
I really don't know why this GM is facing towards this Zaku.
"Targeting and firing!" LOL |
This is one of my favorites |
It's some sort of diorama of a scene from Gundam Build Fighters TRY. |
And this is not in HG 1/144 scale, it's in 1/100 scale. |
As far as I remember, the winner from last year was a very much weathered custom of the Sazabi Ver Ka. which I sensed would win the competition. And so this year, I found so many entries with a weathered theme.
Good thing the others are done with chrome paint.
In the video game "Mobile Suit Gundam: Federation vs Zeon Deluxe", once your done with the Arcade and Campaign modes, you can use and play mobile suits from both factions weather you're a Feddie or Zeonic. And when you use Char's Zaku II while you're on EFSF's side, the Zaku's color will turn into white, blue, red, and yellow Gundam colors. |
I want to have this kind of coating for my Sazabi. |
Tri-Color custom #2 |
Too bad it doesn't have that cape thing. |
Tri-Color custom #3 |
So since this is an event organized by Bankee, it's a great opportunity for them to gain profit! During the event they were selling some P-Bandais kits. But there's a catch:
You must first buy a Gunpla with a specific amount before you are allowed to buy one of the P-Bandais. Good move Bankee, good move.
P-Bandais galore! |
Too bad I was saving some money that time. It was the only time that I can own myself a P-Bandai HG Revive RX-78-3 Gundam G3. And I think that's the only P-Bandai there that's worth buying. Well, I better save some more money to go to Japan and buy my own P-Bandai at a more reasonable price.
I know this is a late post of the event but it's quite of a throwback right? It's November as of now and then after a few weeks it's December, so I guess the next one is pretty much around the corner. I hope we'll have more creative and awesome made kits next year. And I hope I'll be able to think of my own entry as well. So what's your favorite build? Share it now on the comments below and I would like to hear your thoughts.
See you on my next post!
