I finished up the RG Banshee. Pretty good, in my opinion. Wish the back pack armed armor tabbed together, but eh. And the usual issue of the shoulder pieces breaking due to how tight the MS joint is. Salvaged some from a failed Unicorn build till metal ones arrive. #realgrade #gundam #gunpla

spiderguy296.bsky.social @spiderguy296.bsky.social · 30/07/2026

Nabbed the RG Banshee on sale. Figured it was finally time to build the Unicorn's younger, edgier sibling. The Unicorn Display shelf grows #realgrade #gunpla #gundam

Finally got around to posing up the RG 2.0 with the expansion set. Love having the javelin, super napalm, & G/H Hammer. The extra bazooka and curved saber are more "eh" for me. Part of me thinks some of this should have been with the 2.0 to begin with. #gundam #realgrade #gunpla

Holy crap, I can post more than 4 pics now? Uh, here's the HG Kämpfer. Built it a couple days ago, and it's pretty good for its age. Think some of today's engineering could really benefit the design, though. And apologies for the absence. #highgrade #gunpla #gundam

spiderguy296.bsky.social @spiderguy296.bsky.social · 14/06/2026

Here's the Desultor! This kit deserves to be widely released. One of the best HGs I've built in recent memory, just like the rest of the HG Witch line. Only real complaint are the hip joints coming apart when I pose it too much #gundam #gunpla #gwitch #highgrade

0292

spiderguy296.bsky.social @spiderguy296.bsky.social · 12/06/2026

3rd ever P-Bandai purchase with this guy and the RG Gundam expansion set. Really wish this MS wasn't P-Bandai. Especially since it isn't even that obscure. It had a whole episode highlighting it. #gunpla #gundam #gwitch #highgrade

spiderguy296.bsky.social @spiderguy296.bsky.social · 04/06/2026

A friend gifted me the Atlas Gundam. Really cool kit and MS. Sub kegs are a little awkward, and quite a few stickers for color correction. Just painted those parts myself and the eyes. The paint job on the joints didn't turn out great., but the eyes aren't too bad #gundam #gunpla #highgrade

spiderguy296.bsky.social @spiderguy296.bsky.social · 22/05/2026

Alright, 2nd 3rd party kit with ND Tiger Gouf Custom. Pretty good kit. Weird engineering choices for the butterfly joints, which basically leaves them nigh useless. Tolerance issues in those same areas, and a weird neck joint choice. Not bad, really. Just weird. #gunpla #gundam

spiderguy296.bsky.social @spiderguy296.bsky.social · 16/05/2026

I forgot to post these. Love the Revive Hyaku Shiki. I know some people don't like gold plastic, but I don't mind. He'll, it's how it looked om the anime. And it means i can panel line without incident. #gundam #gunpla #highgrade

0255

spiderguy296.bsky.social @spiderguy296.bsky.social · 07/05/2026

Finally got the Hyaku Shiki Revive. Every time I saw a sale going on, I would always say think about getting it, I would get something else. Just kept passing it, and I now I finally said "fuck it," and got it. Been building it for a bit. Lotta undergating #gundam #gunpla #highgrade

spiderguy296.bsky.social @spiderguy296.bsky.social · 29/04/2026

The Easy 8 is complete! Honestly, a really great kit. Even maged to panel line it with no issues. Has one of the biggest arsenals I've ever seen for 1/144 scale. Poses really well too. Just have to tighten the ball joints. #gunpla #highgrade #modelkit

091

spiderguy296.bsky.social @spiderguy296.bsky.social · 26/04/2026

Working on my first 3rd party kit, with the Kurofune Easy 8. All ABS which means being extra careful with the panel lining. I don't even know what tags to use for this. #gunpla #modelkit #3rdpartykit

spiderguy296.bsky.social @spiderguy296.bsky.social · 25/04/2026

And here's a pose of the Zeta getting the Last of Us 2 punch

031

spiderguy296.bsky.social @spiderguy296.bsky.social · 25/04/2026

And here's the Gallus-J! Big, bulky, and beautiful. Poses better than you'd think. And the extendo-punch is a fun feature. Even has a movable monoeye. The gun... is odd. But that's more on the design of it than the kit itself. #gundam #gunpla #highgrade

282

spiderguy296.bsky.social @spiderguy296.bsky.social · 23/04/2026

New ZZ suit to the collection. I feel ZZ suits don't get enough attention. I love how they can go from pretty standard UC to absolutely lovable weirdos, with the Gallus-J being near the middle. Especially love how many have some nice asymmetry. #gundam #gunpla #highgrade

spiderguy296.bsky.social @spiderguy296.bsky.social · 11/04/2026

Back to the familiar grounds with the Universal Cenury. It's the HG Nemo, Unicorn Version. Always loved the Nemo. Wish it got more appreciation. Painted the orange and shoulder vents myself with a marker. Pretty ok kit for being almost 13 years old. #gundam #gunpla #highgrade

082

spiderguy296.bsky.social @spiderguy296.bsky.social · 09/04/2026

It's done! Cool kit. Color separation on the main body is 99% perfect, and it poses well. I just have a hard time with those wings, the hands being loose, and the guns in the wings. They love to clash with the head. I'll try transforming it later since it has an MA mode #gunpla #gundam #highgrade

0101

spiderguy296.bsky.social @spiderguy296.bsky.social · 06/04/2026

Finished the rifle. Did my best to paint the blue and little metallic details. The more annoying part was the sensor and the little... boxes(?) on the side. Think I did alright. The seam on the top refuses to close #gundam #gunpla #highgrade

071

spiderguy296.bsky.social @spiderguy296.bsky.social · 05/04/2026

Well. Either this peg broke at some point, and I never noticed, or I had my very first mold mess up. I can't tell. Cause this was snipped right off the runner like this. Oh well #gundam #gunpla #highgrade

030

spiderguy296.bsky.social @spiderguy296.bsky.social · 05/04/2026

Well, I've decided to keep up my Seed kit journey with the rising freedom. Which has a foil sticker sheet the size of most Real Grade decal sheets. Good lord. Gonna do my best to pant with Gundam Markers. #gundam #gunpla #highgrade

spiderguy296.bsky.social @spiderguy296.bsky.social · 28/03/2026

Another Zaku to the collection. These GQuuX kits are great. Had to glue the snoot in. Kept popping off. And the legs are a little weird with articulation. Damn fine Zaku otherwise #gundam #gquuux #highgrade

082

spiderguy296.bsky.social @spiderguy296.bsky.social · 20/03/2026

I decided to grab the RG Astray not too long after the HG for the sake of comparison and cause the RG just looks so damn cool. And it's not too bad. Poses decently well. Not as well as the HG, though. But not as bad as some other early RGs #gundam #gunpla #realgrade

031

spiderguy296.bsky.social @spiderguy296.bsky.social · 19/03/2026

I recently built the HG Red Astray. Always kinda liked the Astray designs more than the usual Seed designs. The less armored look, big ass sword on a big ass robot, and the simple color scheme just speaks to me. Oh, uh, this is a good kit, BTW. #gundam #highgrade #gunpla

spiderguy296.bsky.social @spiderguy296.bsky.social · 25/02/2026

"You like Jazz," last thing a Zeon hears before being obliterated by some drummer in a Gundam. Really like this kit. Was actually fairly simple for an MG, except the plastic covering on the joints being was a bit finicky during the build #gunpla #gundam #mastergrade

1142

spiderguy296.bsky.social @spiderguy296.bsky.social · 20/02/2026

Alright. Time for a new Ver. Ka kit. The Thunderbolt Gundam. Been wanting to build this and the Psycho Zaku for a while. But this one was cheaper, so it gets fist billing. #gundam #gunpla #mastergrade

170

spiderguy296.bsky.social @spiderguy296.bsky.social · 20/02/2026

I also picked up an HG Deathscythe in my absence. I really like it. I have a weakness for scythes being used as weapons. And this has a laser scythe at that. It's also one of the few Wing MS I absolutely adore. #gundam #gunpla #highgrade

040

spiderguy296.bsky.social @spiderguy296.bsky.social · 19/02/2026

And here's the Mudrock! Besides some gripes about articulation, this is honestly all I want in a Mudrock. Parts for both incomplete and complete versions, rifle, shield, sabers. It's nice. Sad that it's P-Bandai. I think it deserves to be a regular release #gunpla #gundam #highgrade

0263

spiderguy296.bsky.social @spiderguy296.bsky.social · 16/02/2026

You know. This came up for pre-order not long after I finished my first playthrough of Zeonic Front. Incredible coincidence, or Bandai are conspiring against my wallet. Either way, 2nd PB kit and I am excited to build it. Love the Mudrock design #gundam #gunpla #zeonicfront

020

spiderguy296.bsky.social @spiderguy296.bsky.social · 16/02/2026

I saw an HG Strike on sale and decided to nab it. I've never really been big on Seed designs, but I have a softer spot for the Strike. I don't like the big ass backpack. I think it clashes a bit with the sleeker design of the Strike. I think it looks better without it #gundam #gunpla #highgrade

090

spiderguy296.bsky.social @spiderguy296.bsky.social · 12/02/2026

Here's some poses of the Jegan and Doga. Kinda realized I haven't done a lot of grunt vs. grunt pics. Wanted to fix that a little bit. #gundam #gunpla #mastergrade #gundamcca

spiderguy296.bsky.social @spiderguy296.bsky.social · 11/02/2026

Really need to get more practice with posing fights between my kits, so here's some good ol' Gundam vs Dom action. Slightly inspired by a recent playthrough of Zeonic Front #gundam #gunpla #mastergrade

1101

spiderguy296.bsky.social @spiderguy296.bsky.social · 10/02/2026

Here's the HG Lfrith. I dare anyone who hasn't seen the anime to try and guess how the name is pronounced. The first HG Witch kit, and it's still pretty good. Set quite the standard. Only real bad thing is the c-clip ankles. But even then, they're not awful. #gundam #gunpla #highgrade #gwitch

1284

spiderguy296.bsky.social @spiderguy296.bsky.social · 07/02/2026

Here's another kit I had built during my social media absence. The MG Dom 1.5. Half new, half old, but still really good. The best Dom I've built so far. Sanded down spots on the butterfly joints so I don't have to force them back in all the time. #gundam #gunpla #mastergrade

0152

spiderguy296.bsky.social @spiderguy296.bsky.social · 05/02/2026

Something I built last week, the MG F91 2.0. Really cool kit. I was never a huge fan of the F91 design, but this kit kinda changed my mind on it. Tiny thing, though. Always forget how small late UC MS are. It's shorter than the RG Nu. And no expressive hands #gundam #gunpla #mastergrade #gundamf91

0254

spiderguy296.bsky.social @spiderguy296.bsky.social · 05/02/2026

Hi, hello. Been a while, I know. Sorry about that. Life's been... something else. Anyway, the Sinanju frame replacement broke on me and had to order a new one before I could pose it. It was my fault. Thickened peg too much. But now it is nice to pose, for he most part. #gundam #gunpla #realgrade

0153

spiderguy296.bsky.social @spiderguy296.bsky.social · 27/12/2025

Behold. One of my Christmas gifts. Well, some something I got with Christmas money, but whatever. Considered one of the worst RGs you can get, I'm gonna see if this torso and waist replacement I got can help mitigate the badness. #realgrade #gundam #gunpla

spiderguy296.bsky.social @spiderguy296.bsky.social · 24/11/2025

HG Gelgoog, all posed up. Pretty good for an older HG. Double knees, good ab crunch. Worst joints are the single elbows, which I think I could Frankenstein something to give it double elbows. Just not sure how #gundam #gunpla #highgrade #char

0101

spiderguy296.bsky.social @spiderguy296.bsky.social · 23/11/2025

Taking a hort break from video production to build one of my favorite MS. Decided it was time to add to the Char MS line. #gundam #highgrade #char #gunpla

spiderguy296.bsky.social @spiderguy296.bsky.social · 21/11/2025

I've been working on something. A video about the PG Unicorn. I've been working on it for a little while. The very first thing I made for it besides notes, is this. The transformation animation. I'm pecking away at a script right now. Just wanted to share the animation. #gundam #gunpla #stopmotion

spiderguy296.bsky.social @spiderguy296.bsky.social · 14/11/2025

Guess who did these poses a while ago and kept forgetting to post them. The GQuuX Gelgoog is a really good kit. Only real complaints are the lack of foot rotation and the hip joints being a bit funky, but it's great otherwise. #gundam #high-grade #gquuux

131

spiderguy296.bsky.social @spiderguy296.bsky.social · 06/11/2025

This kit was on a pretty steep discount so I grabbed it. I know most people prefer the red one, but I kinda like how this one gives a bit of the original Gelgoog color scheme with the green. Can't wait to build it #gundam #gunpla #gquuux

060

spiderguy296.bsky.social @spiderguy296.bsky.social · 06/11/2025

And I've got an RG Crossbone again. Love having a pirate Gundam. Forgot how small the pieces are. Thankfully, no piece hunting for the eyes like I had to with my first build of it. Ever have a choice between this or the HG, get this. Best Crossbone kit, by far #gundam #gunpla #realgrade

091

spiderguy296.bsky.social @spiderguy296.bsky.social · 05/11/2025

Fun fact: this was the 2nd Real Grade I ever built. Sadly, I made a few mistakes on the build, and it's disintegrating on me. So I grabbed a new copy. Wish it would get reprinted, so I wouldn't have to spend $60+ on eBay for one. Oh well. Can't wait to build it again #gundam #gunpla #realgrade

080

spiderguy296.bsky.social @spiderguy296.bsky.social · 27/10/2025

The Light Type Guncannon, all posed up. These GQuuuX kits have been great. Some of the best kits I've built. Just wish the Guncannon's ankles were better. Also, love the shade of pink for the beam saber blades. #gundam #gunpla #highgrade

1141

spiderguy296.bsky.social @spiderguy296.bsky.social · 27/10/2025

Forgot to post these. The Death Army Grunt is pretty good. Torso is super loose cause polycaps. But that's the worst I can say about it. Just love this design, and it's so fun to pose. #gundam #gunpla #highgrade

0102

spiderguy296.bsky.social @spiderguy296.bsky.social · 22/10/2025

Welp. Decided to go for something a bit simpler after the PG Uni and got the HG Death Army unit and Light Type Guncannon. #gunpla #highgrade #gundam

030

spiderguy296.bsky.social @spiderguy296.bsky.social · 17/10/2025

More poses for the PG Uni. Love the look of Unchained mode. Just enough changes to make it feel distinct from regular Destroy Mode. Ankles are loose, though. So are the ball joint wrists. Gotta fix them soon. Also, can't hold up the weight of the shield and gatlings #gundam #gunpla #gundamunicorn

"No matter how much pain we feel, we can't close our hearts to it!"- Banagher Links. Holy crap this thing is awesome. I am amazed at how well it poses, in spite of its size. And it is hefty thing. Jesus, it's heavy. Now. Where am I gonna put it? #gundam #gunpla #perfectgrade #gundamunicorn
