Started on build nights with Gunpla Colorado. Customization TBD once it is complete. https://gunplaforjoy.com/build-log/shenx-dragon/ Thu, 19 Mar 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://gunplaforjoy.com/build-log/shenx-dragon/ My son has been obsessed with these dragons since the first time he walked into a hobby store. Found one, made it a Christmas present. Ton of parts, pretty complicated — estimated completion date: 2060. https://gunplaforjoy.com/build-log/mg-00qant/ Wed, 18 Mar 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://gunplaforjoy.com/build-log/mg-00qant/ No idea what this guy is about but the look is absolutely incredible. Celestial Being Mobile Suit GNT-0000 — if Angels were actually Gundams, this would be it. https://gunplaforjoy.com/build-log/hg-blazing/ Wed, 18 Mar 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://gunplaforjoy.com/build-log/hg-blazing/ Not sure what this kit is about but the panel lining and gimmicks look really cool right out of the box. Going to give it a try and see what happens. https://gunplaforjoy.com/build-log/mg-deathscythe/ Wed, 18 Mar 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://gunplaforjoy.com/build-log/mg-deathscythe/ Something about being the harbinger of death with that massive beam scythe just works. Pairs perfectly with the Deathscythe Hell Red Bull edition — and maybe this one gets the F1 treatment too. https://gunplaforjoy.com/build-log/hg-strike-freedom/ Wed, 18 Mar 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://gunplaforjoy.com/build-log/hg-strike-freedom/ Love the aesthetic of the Strike Freedom and this would be a great first branch into that universe. Those flying weapons are just too cool to ignore. https://gunplaforjoy.com/build-log/hg-reborns-gundam/ Sat, 14 Mar 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://gunplaforjoy.com/build-log/hg-reborns-gundam/ There are two sides to every story…especially with this guy. https://gunplaforjoy.com/build-log/hg-crossbone-maoh/ Sat, 14 Mar 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://gunplaforjoy.com/build-log/hg-crossbone-maoh/ I love cross bone gundams, so when I got a chance to pick this one up I jumped on it…not literally. Super excited to see what I can do to mimic the reflective stickers with some kind of paint tricks. https://gunplaforjoy.com/build-log/mg-crossbone-x1-fullcloth/ Sat, 14 Mar 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://gunplaforjoy.com/build-log/mg-crossbone-x1-fullcloth/ One of my favorite kits, cuz he looks like a pirate!! This is one of my grail kits that I am scared to tackle because I do not want to mess it up! https://gunplaforjoy.com/build-log/mg-deathscythe-hell/ Sat, 14 Mar 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://gunplaforjoy.com/build-log/mg-deathscythe-hell/ Another grail kit — reserved for a Max Verstappen/Red Bull theme livery. It is gonna be sick…but I keep holding myself back because I am afraid to mess it up. https://gunplaforjoy.com/build-log/mg-epyon-ew/ Sat, 14 Mar 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://gunplaforjoy.com/build-log/mg-epyon-ew/ I love the Epyon aesthetic, so I am really excited to build this one…plus he has a cool whip. https://gunplaforjoy.com/build-log/rg-epyon/ Sat, 14 Mar 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://gunplaforjoy.com/build-log/rg-epyon/ A little bit smaller, but just as much cool detail and just as much attitude. Excited to see how this build compares to the Master Grade. https://gunplaforjoy.com/build-log/mg-geara-doga/ Sat, 14 Mar 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://gunplaforjoy.com/build-log/mg-geara-doga/ I do like to have the same kits in different scales — it is fun to see how the design differs within the same model. https://gunplaforjoy.com/build-log/kb-nacchin-sp/ Sat, 14 Mar 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://gunplaforjoy.com/build-log/kb-nacchin-sp/ A little different — this Kotobukiya kit is a fun little guy. He will match up with my regular Nacchin tank. https://gunplaforjoy.com/build-log/sd-zaku-ii/ Sat, 14 Mar 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://gunplaforjoy.com/build-log/sd-zaku-ii/ Got this little guy a while ago, just have not gotten around to building the squatty little bugger. https://gunplaforjoy.com/build-log/sd-unicorn-banshee/ Sat, 14 Mar 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://gunplaforjoy.com/build-log/sd-unicorn-banshee/ Bought two of these so both my son and I could build them…he built his, mine still sits in the box. One day! https://gunplaforjoy.com/build-log/re100-vigna-ghina/ Sat, 14 Mar 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://gunplaforjoy.com/build-log/re100-vigna-ghina/ Did I say I liked kits related to Cross Bone? Since the F91 project is done, this one has got to have another F1 theme…can we say Mercedes? https://gunplaforjoy.com/build-log/rg-wing-zero-ew/ Sat, 14 Mar 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://gunplaforjoy.com/build-log/rg-wing-zero-ew/ I have held off on this one…not entirely sure why, but I am a little intimidated by it. I love the wings though! https://gunplaforjoy.com/build-log/hg-sandrock/ Sat, 14 Mar 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://gunplaforjoy.com/build-log/hg-sandrock/ Who doesn’t like a gundam who carries two sickle blades?! https://gunplaforjoy.com/build-log/mg-psycho-zaku/ Fri, 13 Mar 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://gunplaforjoy.com/build-log/mg-psycho-zaku/ The Psycho Zaku Ver.Ka from Gundam Thunderbolt. One of the most intimidating kits in my backlog — bristling with weapons and detail. https://gunplaforjoy.com/build-log/hg-v2-assault-buster/ Thu, 12 Mar 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://gunplaforjoy.com/build-log/hg-v2-assault-buster/ HG V2 Assault-Buster Gundam built in standard colors with sharp custom paint. Documenting the build from snap fit through scribing, repair work, and paint. https://gunplaforjoy.com/build-log/mg-f91/ Thu, 01 Jan 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://gunplaforjoy.com/build-log/mg-f91/ A McLaren F1 themed MG F91 built for the Gunpla Colorado Q1 2026 group build. Custom paint, carbon fiber effects, and custom decals.
