The faceplate of the AGE-2 isn't derived from the Zeta either though. Also, in Zeta Gundam it wasn't a Gundam because of the looks, but because of the material that was being used. Same goes for the Rick Dias which codename is ? Gundam (Gamma Gundam). The faceplate of the Zeta also looks different because it's Kamille who designed and all the other Gundams are designed by Anaheim Electronics.

The faceplate on that mod of the Zeta doesn't even look like anything you'd see on a Gundam IMO. it looks like a flat thing with some lines on it. It just looks odd to me and ugly :p

And that diorama looks really great! That Gundam as well!

I meant it looks like it was derrived from that Zeta, not the original one. Camille's design is still ugly no matter how you put it. :p.

^I know you meant that, haha. But the faceplate from AGE-2 looks nothing like the one from that mod. And I meant that it doesn't look like Zeta's for that matter either.

Seen those winners on Gundam Guy's blog as well and some are awesome! And the one you posted right there is one of the most creative things I have seen lately regarding Gundam. It's awesome if you ask me :p

That customized build of the EX-S Gundam looks awesome! I normally don't such bulky Gundam but I have a weak spot for the EX-S Gundam.

I'll be watching the latest episode of Gundam AGE tomorrow. Been busy with my room today so didn't have time.

Also, this is the best custom builed I've seen of the RX-93 Hi-Nu:

Colorwise it looks lots better than the original version. Though the funnels have a bit too much yellow. If the yellow in the white part was actually white, it would've looked better IMO. But overall, it looks like a great custom build!

That is nice.

^Dream on, haha. I bet they all do it from out of their heads. Really creative!

Also:

*A reliable source indirectly suggested that the next RG is indeed the RG 1/144 Zeta Gundam. But is probably best to wait for Bandai's confirmation*

Source: Next RG 1/144 No.10 To Be On Display This Summer! (Japan) - High Probability To Be The RG 1/144 Zeta Gundam [updated 7/25/12]

The details we're able to see in the image does indicate that it will indeed beta the Zeta Gundam. If so, I NEED to have it, haha. Can't wait to actually see a RG version of it.

That "EX-S Gundam" looks insane! ANd wow, that "Project Gwen Ver.Ed 1/144 ReZEL FA+FW" looks crazy indeed! Overkill though, haha. But that's some fine craftsmanship!

Also, the colors on that Dark Hound look great tbh.

Not moving on just yet, haha. Imagine that the RG version of the Zeta Gundam can transform. Even the anime version had a sophisticated transformation. It's going to be very interesting when the RG version can transform into it's Waverider form as well.

^1st one looks awesome and the AGE-FX just looks ugly to me. I must admit though that it looks kinda alright without the funnels attached to it but it doesn't appeal to me at all. I guess it's the same story that you have with the Zeta Gundam, lol.

I'm normaly not really a fan of shiny metallic paint on Gundam. But this one looks exceptionally good. I guess it's because of how some parts have matte paint on them.

Well you said it yourself.. you kinda like it. haha. Even with or without funnels I'd say it looks pretty good. The Haiku Shiki is too shiny for my tastes.

^Naah, I never said that I liked it without the funnels. It looks alright without the funnels but still ugly. Also, it's not the Hiaku Shiki, it's the Delta Plus which is Riddhe Marcenas's mobile suit in Gundam Unicorn. It does look like the Hiaku Shiki but that's because both are based off of the Delta Gundam.

That delta plus reminds me of megatron for some reason, guess it's the head

It's the metalic colour. lol.

    • Apple's AI smart glasses and Vision headset plans reportedly delayed, again

      By AnalystDan · Posted

      Apple are scared of their customers! They have built a brand over the years of "it just works out of the box", but that slows innovation. Samsung's master stroke was the Galaxy Ultra: "Let's cram everything into one handset, make it so stupid only real nerds will love it, some of the features will work, some won't, but the audience will have such a high tolerance they won't care". Apple has no such device and so they are constantly worrying these days about the fallout of creating a new experience that customers might not like. I know it is often cited the reason they don't build a touchscreen Mac Book is they don't want to cannibalise the the iPad market, but I think it's equally cold feet after the criticism Microsoft receive trying to make a touch compatible desktop OS

    • Dell, HP PCs ran into endless reboot, BitLocker recovery loops but Windows 11 isn't to blame

      By grunger106 · Posted

      So, an article that has nothing to do with Windows 11, still gets Windows 11 in the title and a build number as the picture? Dell have a buggy build of Support Assist HP have UEFI settings that need unlocking for the secureboot cert upgrade to take place.
    • I Can't Wrap My Head Around This Number - Google to buy computing from SpaceX at $920 million per month

      By Nick H. · Posted

      What I can't seem to understand is that Google are paying SpaceX? Surely it would be the other way round, with SpaceX needing Google's datacenters etc.? Oh well, this level of money and power is way outside of my comprehension at the best of times.
    • Helium Browser 0.13.1.1

      "77ee94b helium/windows: winsparkle updater (built-in auto-update support on Windows" If that's what I think it is, that is about the only thing that's been missing from this excellent browser. I guess I'll find out the next time I'm on a Windows machine.
