Do you ever do that thing where you talk up all the cool shit you're going to do on your vacation, then never actually do it?
I thought you already built all your gunpla, what's left?

The model store actually had a Hell Diver from Patlabor for $30 in its bargin bin, but it was made back in the 90s by some Singapore company.
Anyone here have experience with really old kits?

[Ming]

I usually do all the stuff I want to do during vacation, or at least try to. If I become too busy I'll drop stuff.


>what's left

Gundam Astraea
Gundam Exia Repair II
Gundam 00

And should arrive any day now:

Star Build Strike Gundam
Brave Commander (trivia: I actually saw a picture of this mecha in a youtube music upload, thought it was the coolest thing, and that's what made me start watching Gundam)
Gundam Zabaniya
Gundam AGE-2 Normal
Gundam F91
Crossbone Gundam X1

Also a Muv-Luv kit I got for cheap during a sale:

Shiranui Second Tarisa Manandal

I have also bought but haven't shipped:

Over Flag 1/144
Over Flag 1/100
Gundam AGE-1 Spallow
Genoace
Gundam 00 Raiser + GN Sword III

The worst part is there's like 20-30 more kits I want, and the list will probably grow as I watch more of the shows.

And that's just Gundam. I also want to get in on Patlabor (Ingram, Griffon and Hell Diver) and Frame Arms.

Then there's my desire to start scratch building my own designs...

 

[McJongJing]

How the fuck do you afford and build so many kits?
I almost never buy another kit until I've finished my last one.

I slept over at a friend's place this weekend I haven't done it in years and it was really fun 

[McJongJing]

Sleep overs are awesome and I don't see why adults don't do it.
I want to stay up and play Ultimate Ninja Storm all night again.
Did you suck his dick?

[Ming]

How the fuck do you afford and build so many kits?
I almost never buy another kit until I've finished my last one.
 

Because I have a job 

That and I import my gunpla from Japan, so it's quite cheap. I spend roughly 15 bucks (including shipping) per kit.

[McJongJing]

The fucking exchange rate screws my imports 
15 bucks sounds way too cheap though.
Even without shipping it's usually like twenty.

[McJongJing]

Question.
Why would we have a tax on model kits?
It's not like New Zealand exactly has a large model kit industry to protect.

[Kami_sama]

The normie are trying to bully you by overpricing your gunpla.

[McJongJing]

John Key is trying to bully me into getting a job 

[McJongJing]

Get a job

Talked someone out of committing murder probably.
