0033 GUNDAM X

Sorry for the lack of Gundam updates - 67 images today to make up for it. I still have a load of GFF's that I need to gallery-ize. The thing with taking pictures of figures is that you only need concentrate on the lighting and camera settings as most figures dont have movable or interchangeable parts - they just sit/stand there ^^;
When taking pics of Gundams, one has to think about other things like pose, what combinations of weapons to attach etc. In my case, I also need to worry about bits falling off my 3rd floor balcony!
Have you seen Gundam X? An oldie but a goodie - just added an Otavid of the OP.
The orchestral pieces are atmospheric to compliment an engaging Gundam anime - recommended.
This GFF is absolutely lovely and if you love weapons you will love this release. The Sattelite System/Cannon, Divider, Shoulder Vulcan Cannon, Beam Swords and other bad ass weapons are included to keep you occupied during those long boring meetings.
A few nags - many parts are loose and fall off easily but can be easily remedied using the fixing loose joints method. Apart from these fixable nags, this Katoki Gundam is utterly recommended if you like loadsa weapons.
Added two images to the Wallpaper pool.
Have a look for this figure on the following trusted shopping sites.

Can't get tired of these gundam pictures, they'll make nice wallpapers. Danny, there are a couple of little blobs in some pictures.

Gundam X was one of my favorite designs, and also one of the harder models to find around here. There's always lots of Zakus though...

0033 Gunadm looks great! What I'm a bigger fan of is your otaku videos. I frequent your page 3-5 times a week and am always treated to the best stuff! Keep it up!

Looks good, I never saw this series but now I'm thinking i need to. I love the way the GFF figures look, but I don't collect as many because of all the loose bits, i've got a half dozen or so little baggies filled with weapons and armor peices. I've also noticed sometimes the peices don't always stay on so well. I've been collecting all the HCM's instead. Keep up all the great work Danny!

Somehow I missed Gundam X. Can never remember seeing the series. ^^; Didn't this come out about the same time as SPT Layzner? I do like what I have seen of the Gundams from this series. Only problem with this GFF is I wouldn't ming have each one. That would mean buying three of GFF 0033. T_T Enough of my whining. ^^; Your pictures look good. I understand about posing, I just can't get the hang of it. I understand you are busy and can't always get around to things when you want. When I see a Gundam, figure, something about Japan or you about town post, I'm ready to dive in. ^o^ Since my free time is so finite, I usually schedule it full. So much I want and need to learn. Probably the same for you.

Funny how those messages from the future become old. That GFF looks pretty awesome, much better than the original from the Gundam X OP. The one from the OP was too white, making it pretty dull looking.

That's an awesome-looking GFF. I should start collecting GFFs soon~! Hey Danny! How about including a shot of all the extra parts of the GFF next time? That looks like the X-Divider shield. So does that mean that the GFF Gundam X covers the first and second version of Gundam X? Because after X-Divider, it's already Gundam XX.

I never seen Gundam X, but I keep on hearing about it.

I have that model kit in a HG. I watched about 6 episodes of gundam x but wasnt motivated enough i guess. Hopefully, i download the rest of it.

I just realised that there isn't a Strike or Impulse figure in the GFF line. Strange considering that these 2 MS's played huge parts in GS and GSD.

I've preordered this anime to my store for such a long time, but the seller keep telling me "the shipment will arrive in 2 weeks, the shipment will arrive in 2 weeks, and the shipment will arrive in 2 weeks...." oh boy...

The story line of this series is kinda centered..but i like it anyways..especially the OSTs..Dreams and resolution..both by Romantic Mode..^^

throwing in the gundam updates every now and then is fine. ^^ I'm rather in different.

I liked this series, it slightly strays from the common all out war theme of most gundams well atleast during the 1st few episodes. Although the colors are really strainous in th eyes. Cool Harmonica/ shield what ever and the Girls the girls the girls.
(ID #43887) Posted on 2007/02/07 10:39
definitely one of my favourite series (although it has been chopped to only 39 episodes) but with romance and action in one. Gundam X really paved the way for massive cannon on MS. Shame he didnt use it much in the anime.

Very nice ^^ However GFF is small in size from my view. Hope that bandai will reproduce it into MG

Nice post Danny, but I really prefer pictures of figures, like Konomi Yuzuhara for example :)

This looks great! Now, if only it was a Master Grade...

WOW!!!!!WOW!!!!WOW!!!! i so have to get me one :-) looks PG...but then again you are good at putting it together... exerlent pics
(ID #43893) Posted on 2007/02/07 16:12
Im more of a figures person than a gundam one. I do like gundam figures, but i find it a nightmare posing them without all the accessories and bits falling off. I prefer pre-posed ornamental statues to poseable action figures. Im surprised you have any space left in your house - the GFFs have SO many bits and bobs for turning them into an alternative version! Theyre great quality for their size though. Nice and crisp pics.

that my kindah gundam. :D
(ID #43898) Posted on 2007/02/07 21:10
I was considering buying this gff and i dont like the x gundam or gff's. It looks really sweet and the detail.. oh baby! But with the gff pricetag.. i dont think so.. Danny, do you think this one is a worthy one for me to buy?
(ID #43899) Posted on 2007/02/07 21:30

Now you only need some more updates on some MG Gundams! Thanks for the update on the Gundam X. Although it looks like nice, I don't think I will buy it.

Lol X Gundam. I never liked the cheap
