The precision tool manufacturing company from Shanghai, DSPIAE is taking the hobby industry by storm. With their highly sought after ST-A 3.0 Single Blade Nippers which we have also reviewed and now their line of Sanding Sponges. We ran into an all too familiar scenario when trying to source these kits in the UK, allContinue reading “DSPIAE Sanding Sponge Set Review”

Something interesting that happened recently on my Journey into Gunpla. With the holiday season not long behind us and the UK being dragged through yet another lockdown, the reserves of Gunpla within the UK based stores have been heavily depleted. Some Amazon vouchers had tallied up and the MG 1/100 Heavyarms EW was in myContinue reading “Journey into Gunpla #007”

What’s this, a review? That’s right, we’ve had the DSPIAE ST-A 3.0 Single Blade Nipper for a couple of weeks and have been using them on all the most recent Gunpla kits. These were quite difficult to source in the UK, nearly every store we checked were out of stock! Gundam Mad to the rescue,Continue reading “DSPIAE ST-A 3.0 Single Blade Nipper Review”

It’s time for another build log and it’s another Gundam Wing Mobile Suit! The HG WMS-03 MAGANAC Middle Eastern Nations Mass Produced Mobile-Suit. This kit was purchased not long after the listing went live on the Armor of God website and at the time of writing this post cost only £12.99! That’s right, this isContinue reading “HG WMS-03 MAGANAC”

We recently hosted a Giveaway to celebrate our Instagram reaching 1000 followers. The legends at Gundam Gateway were kind enough to sponsor it, sending us five of the new RX-78-2 Entry Grade kits to giveaway for runner-ups and we also purchased a £50 voucher for their webstore as the Grand Prize. One of the termsContinue reading “Journey into Gunpla #006”

The reserve of Gunpla kits was exhausted much quicker than originally anticipated… I needed kits stat! With the current pandemic situation and the holidays fast approaching, it has proven somewhat difficult to source the kits I wanted for the collection. One of my favorite Gundam related shows is of course Gundam Wing: Endless Waltz andContinue reading “Journey into Gunpla #005”

Not a terribly exciting post ahead, you’ve been warned… When I first starting building Gunpla, the Citadel Knife was the only knife in my arsenal. At the time, it did exactly what was required. As the kits progressed in grades and detail, the Citadel Knife quickly became obsolete. In with the New! The Olfa AK-5Continue reading “Journey into Gunpla #004”

The series Gundam Wing remains one of my favorite Mobile Suit related animated shows. The Tallgeese in the series differs slightly from the Gundam Wing: Endless Waltz version that we’re building in this log. This kit was purchased from Amazon as it was on sale at the time. This is my second RG (Real Grade)Continue reading “RG Tallgeese EW 1/144”

‘Tis almost the season and the Secret Santas are starting to pop up once again. This year I have signed up for two, one with a Facebook group Game Trader and the other on Reddit. I’m sure you’re all familiar with Secret Santa but just in case, Secret Santa is where a group of people,Continue reading “Journey into Gunpla #003”

We picked up the 1/144 HGUC MESSER F01 kit from our boys at Gundam Gateway (where else would we shop) just over a week ago. The box was quite a bit larger than the High Grade kits we’ve built in the past… This won’t be a build-log like our previous Journey into Gunpla posts. ThinkContinue reading “HGUC MESSER F01 1/144”
