    • Banzai Beat forums going away

      I want to thank everyone for making the forums fun. But due to spammers I just don't want to deal with it. They make hundreds of accounts and spam the living hell out of the forums.

      so on that note I'm taking them offline due to very little use and I'm not watching my bandwidth bill be sucked up my spammers.

      Thanks again and look forward to a new episode in the coming days.

      Lol exams. Good luck! Or maybe you can just tell your teachers that you are not interested in ordinary exams. =D

    • Exams...

      I have exams today and for the rest of the week. *sigh*

      Wish me luck ^_^

    • Work...work...

      The work...It is piling up!!! Why can't reality and anime co-exist in peace?!??!?!!

  • Aaaaaand I’m back with the last installment of my Projects.

    Those who have no idea what this is, you can refer to here and here.

    Warning! Long post!

    Took my time to do these 2 since reality has a habit of butting into my life.

    So first up would be Graham’s SVMS-01E Union Flag Custom. Before he got that gay GN Drive upgrade.

    Obviously there are alot less parts since this is a 1/144 scale model. Lack of detail would be another point to note. Nevertheless, I pushed on and this, I managed to avoid any form of blood sacrifice what-so-ever. Built while listening to anime music of course.

    My biggest gripe with this baby is it is freaking fragile. The joints don’t hold very well and the head is a pain in the ass since for some reason the parts dun exactly lock together completely.

    And now with the Plasma Sword (or Sonic Blade)
    Yeah, the colour’s wrong I know…

    Changing the Union Custom to Flight mode took me the better part of an hour to figure out. Got it figured out in the end of course.

    And now we move on to Lockon Stratos’ GN-002 Gundam Dynames.

    Dynames, compared to the Flag Custom, was a dream. The weird hip joint aside (weird because of Dynames’ sniping poses), the rest of it fit pretty well. I especially liked the GN Sniper Rifle and the GN Shield. Well, the pics speak for themselves.


    Dynames with his GN Sniper Rifle that you see most of the time.


    Dynames with his GN Full Shield equipped.

    Note zoom lens on the head.


    We guys in Singapore call this the “Prone Supported Position”. Wish we had an equally bad ass rifle.

    And this wraps up everything. Thanks for reading. And to my friends out there. Thanks for the gifts!


    Face off!


    Anime Banzai!

      Looking pretty good those are both ones I haven’t gotten around to picking up yet myself. I have a normal Union Flag and I wasn’t that happy with it which is making it take longer to pick up the Graham one and the Overflag.

      @Mike: Well, it is a 1/144 so the detail isn’t to that stage lol.
