8:54 Another modeler split the two magazines molded together - they are actually fully compatible with the rifle when split apart. Kind of a hidden function, like the leg skirting options for 1/144 HG kits.

By far the best looking kit ive seen in a while. Ive already seen so many unique customs and i plan to get a few myself for fun colors.

@PaleRiderTCG Год назад

This is personally the type of mecha model kit I like the most. A beautiful, pseudorealistic robot that looks both credible and incredible. And not only the design and color scheme is appealing to me, the kit itself is really impressive as a High Grade, it has some 'RG' features just like the Moon Gundam did (and some others, too).

@balgus82 Год назад

I really love the design of this one. It deserved to be an actual Gundam, and I'll probably repaint it as one.

@daviid_ee Год назад

I recently found the HG Aerial at target. Got it, buit it, and loved it. So much so that I went back and grabbed another one to display it as the Bit-on form. Super fun and fast builds!

@vustvaleo8068 Год назад

the concept of the Gundvolva is actually similar to the GX-Bits from Gundam X as in drone units that look like Mobile Suits controlled by a Gundam, in Gundam X's case controlled by a Newtype.

I think that, with the heels, it may be more of a thing that the joint didn't fully connect for you at first and then worked itself into the right place. I've had that happen with a few of the similar kits

This kit is now on my must have list

@AJigsawnHalo Год назад

@@beginnerplox any solution to fix if you sand down a little too much and thanks you for your information

@beginnerplox Год назад

@@zayarphyo7770 add a thin layer of: tamiya cement, super glue, or paint to either the hole or connector. like super super thin layer on a piece, let it dry. then test fit. Ideally you do it on the piece that you can also sand down easily in case you put too much.

@viperson9818 Год назад

Oh dang a kit I need 3 of to make those fantastic scenes. Darn you Bandai. Not to mention the kit itself is insanely good for a HG I might have to grab a couple more for customization. Thankfully it’s probably the second cheapest WFM kit.

@sXeAndriex 11 месяцев назад

A warning, myself and other builders I've spoken too have all had the balljoint holding the ankle armor snap off. The plastic on plastic connection is too snug oob and puts stress on the plastic piece. I suggest sanding the ball so the connection isn't so tight.

@akuguy6531 5 месяцев назад

i just order my own Gundvolva, even knowing this problem, but i saw many comments on reddit about this issue but i was looking a different way of take care of this issue with the heels. I was thinking with super glue, to fill those holes in the part. Off course letting dry the glue to make a little stronger that part, but about the oil, which kind of Oil did you used ?. Also ,thank you for your comment, i was looking for someone to help me with this. I was trying to not buy this kit cause of that problem, but looks so cool so..i lost.
