Hello everyone, I'm new to the msg board, so I wanted to say hi to everyone. ![:D](http://lemonstre.fr/robot-japan/smileys/grin.png) I'm a huge gundam fan, and have been collecting for over 5 years. I have over 200 models in all. Some of the models include about 13 PG's and over 50 MG's. I've got quite a few limited editions also. All models, all gundam, no action figures or FIX figures. Let me know if anyone is interested and I can post some pics. I'm glad to finally find some people I can share my collection with. But, I just really wanted to say hi to everyone. Thanks qball Oh yea. Does anybody know of where I could purchase the Perfect Grade Zeta Coating Edition or the Perfect Grade RX-78-3 Bandai Museum Edition? Thanks again.

Hi, It is an addicting hobby bleen. ;D Here are are a couple pics. The first is of my case. I removed the glass doors so there wouldn't be flash glare. The second pic is ofcourse all of my PG's. I never panel lined or painted them, because if i did one model, I would want to do all of them. And that is almost impossible at this point. You can see the rest of my collection at www.quangxha.com/gundamhome.htm Let me know what ya think. Thanks for the interest, Qball ![](http://www.quangxha.com/pictures/case.jpg) ![](http://www.quangxha.com/pictures/pggundams.jpg)

![:o](http://lemonstre.fr/robot-japan/smileys/shocked.png) that's.... impressive ![;)](http://lemonstre.fr/robot-japan/smileys/wink.png) Although I really, REALLY think you should panel line your kits... at least the ones you like most... I've done so with mine and it REALLY makes a difference! ![;)](http://lemonstre.fr/robot-japan/smileys/wink.png) This thing sucks you in... I've bought these kits and I've told myself: this month you WON'T be buying gunplas... and this month is passing by VERY slowly ![:-/](http://lemonstre.fr/robot-japan/smileys/undecided.png) I'll be broke if I keep buying these things at the rythm I build them (even if I'm not that fast)! ![:P](http://lemonstre.fr/robot-japan/smileys/tongue.png) I'm very interested in the PGs (cause I think I'll focus on the PGs and only when I have them all I'll do the MGs)... Could you make a little PG list in order best->worst? ![;)](http://lemonstre.fr/robot-japan/smileys/wink.png) I already have the Strike, and I think I'll be buying the MKII next month.... although that GP01 does look impressive ![:-*](http://lemonstre.fr/robot-japan/smileys/kiss.png) And from all your kits (PGs, MGs, HGs, etc), which one is your favorite?

I agree with ya bleen. They do look better lined. I'm just to lazy =\. I figure, i'd rather build another one and have another display peice, rather than making one look better, lol. ;D If I were to rank the PG's by
Poseability: 1. Strike 2. RX-178's 3. Wing Zero 4. Zakus 5. RX-78's 6. GP01 7. Zeta Favorite by looks: 1. Zeta 2. Strike 3. Wing Zero 4. Clear RX-78 5. Clear Zaku 6. RX-178 7. RX-178 Titan 8. GP01 9. RX-78 C.A 10. Zaku Green 11. RX-78 12. Zaku Red
It is to hard to pick a favorite, but It would probably be between my PG Zeta, PG Strike, and my Ltd Ed. Crystal MG Super Gundam.
Whats your favorite Bleen?
Hey Tristan, whats broken on your Wing Zero?

I didn't know there was a metal coating version of the PG Zeta. I thought just MG's (along with the HG Hyakushiki) had the metal coating 20th anniv. editions. What's a Museum edition PG?

Hi zephyranthes, Nice to meet you. Yea, they are pretty rare. Here are some pics of of the RX-78-3 Bandai Museum Edition. Supposdly only available at the Bandai Museum in Japan. I have the picture of the PG Zeta Coating at work, but I can't seem to find it on my home comp. It was released at the Plamodel Radicon Fair 2004 along with the Deactive MG Strike, and Deactive HG Freedom. I will post that pic on monday. I want them BAD, because I want all the PG's, minus the EVA. Let me know what you think. THanks qball ![](http://www.quangxha.com/pictures/rx7833.jpg) ![](http://www.quangxha.com/pictures/rx7832.jpg) ![](http://www.quangxha.com/pictures/rx783.jpg)

Hi, I found the metallic PG Zeta pic. I can't find the picture of the box. But it was very similar in color to the box for the RX-78-3 LImited Bandai Museum Edition box. The dark shiny grey color box. I want it SO BAD. Enjoy the pics. ![](http://www.quangxha.com/pictures/zetametallic.jpg)

Hi tristan, Nope, none of my models are painted. I believe there might be 1 or 2 SD that have panel lines(got those prebuilt), but thats it. The rest are all natural. ![;)](http://lemonstre.fr/robot-japan/smileys/wink.png) Which ones are you referring to that you think are painted? Let me know if you plan to sell the broken Wing Zero. I may be interested in purchasing it from you. Qball

k i'll think about it ![;)](http://lemonstre.fr/robot-japan/smileys/wink.png) but mayby i'll keep to make a battle damaged wing to go with my strike, i don't know it yet btw don't you think the wing is a bit small in comparison to the other PG? i'd like it more if they made PG always 35cm or about 15 inch ( srry for my sucky english ![:-/](http://lemonstre.fr/robot-japan/smileys/undecided.png) )

Wow I love it! My collection looks pretty paltry in comparison (7 PGs and maybe 20 MGs and people think Im crazy!) I saw one of those zetas on Ebay just over a month ago I think, I will see if I can figure out who was selling it. I saved the pics of it somewhere on my computer. I believe that I bought a built MG Sazabi from you on ebay didnt I qball? I think I also have seen you bidding on some things I was looking to get! ![>:(](http://lemonstre.fr/robot-japan/smileys/angry.png) ;D Good to have another Gundam kit addict on here, you will fit right in! ttahaj

Qball99, i see you have the MG sazabi, and cause you don't paint your gundams, i would ask what you think of it, is sazabi worth it's mony? or is just crap ![:)](http://lemonstre.fr/robot-japan/smileys/smiley.png) and how are the collors? not to toy-like? thx

I thought your ttahaj id looked familiar =]. Yup, i'm the one that sold you the Sazabi. How is it holding up? Sorry for the bidding on your items ![:D](http://lemonstre.fr/robot-japan/smileys/grin.png) . I just can't help it, lol. If you could find out who was selling that PG Zeta, I would reeeeeeeeeeeeally appreciate it. I need to fill in the missing links to my collection =]. Long live gundam nutz like us! Yo tristan. I think that the MG Sazabi looks great without painting. Let me know if you want some closer and better pics. I think the casting color was perfect. A lot of the newer MG releases are pretty nice the way they are, like the Sazabi, the EX-S, Strike, Qubeley, Rick Dias, etc. But back to what your were asking, the Sazabi is one of the better MG's. Hope this helps. Let me know what you think.

Nice to meet you Qball. Thanks for the pix of the metal coating PG's. Drool. I had never before seen much less heard of these PG Gundams. I'd want the PG metal coating G3. Wonder how much these would run. I bet they're pretty expensive due to being ltd edition PERFECT grades. I've loved the MG metal coating models.

Hi Zephyranthes, The limited RX-78-3 went on ebay last month for $199.99 + 20.00 shipping. I thought that was kind of high, so I didn't bid on it. Its the only one I have ever seen of that one. I bet though, that it sells for around $160.00 if you buy it from the bandai museum store. The one that was sold on ebay was probably marked up a bit. As for the metal coating Zeta, I have never seen one for sale. I thought I heard from somewhere that it was selling at the convention for over $400.00, but i'm not to sure. Thats to much =\. I got lucky with my Limited RX-78 C.A. I got it for a great price of only $140.00. I also like the coated models. They look great, and you don't need to paint them ![:D](http://lemonstre.fr/robot-japan/smileys/grin.png) .
