18 Times Faster

Seeing 'x18' in a manual is intimidating? Just do what I do and say "I'm no stranger to repetition." Once you get into a grove and you can make x18 go 18 times faster!

Really great review, glad to see some SRW kits. I hadn't realized you built the Huckebein Boxer!
Not to call myself out on it, but I shied away from SRW models after the 1:144 R-1 crumbled in my hands.

I have to say though, that looks really sharp! Nice build!

Yeah, it ended up not being

Yeah, it ended up not being bad at all, but 90 pieces just going into a robot's remote weapons seems unprecedented on anything that's not a Perfect Grade kit. And thank you! I've been building for a while, and I've got a fair amount of Super Robot Wars kits. My next goal is to hunt down the Ialdaboath and the Aussenseiter. If any of the new SRW kits strikes your fancy, I'd definitely recommend them, they've come a long way since the R-1.

Part count

90 parts for 18 weapons isn't so bad if you don't think about it.... said from the guy who built the 180 parts for 12 Fin Funnels.

Good to hear about the kits, though!

I'm really enjoying your review style.

I'm not really a model kit guy, but your writing is really good, and you're knowledgeable about the subject matter without being too heavy-handed. More than that though, you fill out the info box, and I can't tell you how happy that makes me. I'll be looking forward to more reviews from you!
