I kinda wish Lemmy had polls right now. With my spare A5 almost in my hands I'm looking forward to the next build, but I can't decide if I should start a HG Zaku/Ghost/Victory moon fight scene or the ver.Ka RX-93 with double fin funnels. A poll would make it so much easier to quickly get the opinion of my fellow builders! Oh well, I'm still interested in your opinions! Which do you think will be cooler or more fun to do next?

If the XM-XO is anything like the XM-XX model, then that thing just felt so good putting together. I'd go for the moon fight scene first just to work on that model.

man that XM-XX is so sick! I sure hope the XM-X0 is on its level! I think I've got an idea how I'm going to paint it that I think will look pretty sweet, too, and I can't wait to share it with the community. Same with the Rear Shrike V.

Lol dangit, now I'm back to being torn. Maybe the weather can help me figure this out. If we don't have impending rain, I can build and paint the mobile suits of the scene, and if it is impending I can do the Nu clean build

The HG scene sounds more interesting, but I have way more personal attachment to the Nu. That being said... that's a lot of fin funnels.

It's hard not to have an attachment to Nu, it's such a wicked suit! Lol it is a lot of funnels, true, but there's also the base and effects to really make that sucker look that much more awesome!

I like your idea though! Sandwiching the MG Nu between the bunch of HG builds would be a good mix up

I... I mean, I thought that idea, but I didn't verbalize it.

looks around for a floating space magic T

I spent a good 10 minutes searching for a better picture than the production sketch. To the point where I'm wondering if my memory of the T floating by at the end of CCA is imagined. 😅

Edit: nope, not imagined. Thanks, low-res YT video!

lol yea my initial search just yielded a bunch of whole gundams with psycho frames. the images of the T were surprisingly sparse.
