ok so like.... i like robot models and stuff theyre really cool and surprisingly accessible despite what i thought they were. like yeah the people into gunpla can sometimes judge beginners too harshly but if youre doing it for fun you can avoid those people. anyways i wanna talk about gunpla and my favorite gunpla models and all the cool robots i wanna make for our first robots i will show you haro from the haropla line which comes in many different colors and is technically the mascot for gundam i think  haropla are really simple and dont really need tools to make (unless youre like, customizing it) and are REALLY cheap theyre like 7-8 dollars max. also theyre cute little ball guys second robots is beargguy which is a whole line of bear robots in the HG build fighters line and i have beargguy P which is pink and has angel wings. heres beargguy iii san its yellow  THIS ONE i have its gundam g-else this isnt my pic but its what it looks like and its freaking COMPLICATED the instruction booklet is a little unclear so some of the joints are just garbage if you dont know what youre doing (like me)  |

one thing i really wanna do is make an irken ship custom and i think theres enough gunpla out there that i could find suitable parts for one. ive got my eyes on low quality zakus for parts bc they tend to be more rounded and less complicated (they were one of the first mechs in the series, which debuted in the 70s and they were the bad guy robots so they had to be less complicated so they could be drawn more than once on screen) and have spikes. this one is zaku ii char's version  (char is the main bad guy character in the first gundam series and he has a red mech to make him stand out from all the other bad guys robots) |

i used to collect complicated gunpla builds and make them without the instructions bc i was some kind of freak, my most expensive one was $400 and was a gift from someone horrible so when it broke to bits in the move i trashed it without remorse. i do want to get the Evangelion gunpla's though and build those.... i would not let people BREATHE near them let me tell you.... $500 a pop.... no way. do not breathe near my plastic robots.
