Happy Birthday to me!!!

YEAH!!!


Murasame was something I picked up in Tokyo when I visited ASM and Gaigun.

The Federation MS/MA dictionary was a gift from a friend.

1.5 Gundam was a gift to myself as it was released exactly on my birthday. Today.  Bought some 0.5 Pla-plate and a metallic purple Gundam marker for it.

Zaku Warrior is a gift to my friend that I mentioned before who likes F-91 and wanted to try building a Gundam.  She choose that and the Nadleeh because they're the most girly.  Actually I suggested them to her because she's quite girly herself and I didn't think anything else would really suit her.   Not to mention that the sheer number of Gundams would intimidate anyone and turn them off of the hobby. She went for the Zaku for obvious reasons but she really liked the Nadleeh too because of the 'hair'.  I may build that one for her but she's going to do the Zaku herself and if she enjoys the experience she'll do the Nadleeh after that.

Yeah I know what you're thinking.  Two girls, two Zaku's.  What can I say... I'm converting the planet one female at a time.  I'm doing my part!  What are YOU doing to get girls into Gundam?! haha

I should mention that I don't let these women pay for the Gundams of course.  They want to but I insist on buying them their first one, and more than likely, their last.  Just a matter of principle I guess.

    My wife would never get into Gundams, not one bit. =( I've shown her Gundam UC ep.1, the only thing she likes was the dress that Audrey wore...

  10. O'tanjoubi omedetou gozaimasu!

    Hanging out in Akiba was good times. Let's do again some time soon.

    What am I doing to get girls into Gunpla? That goes along with the question 'what am I doing to get into girls?'. NSFW.

  12. Happy Birthday man! Darn I'm a bit late...

    Truth be told... i still can't tell the difference betweeen 1.5 and Reborns beside the color scheme.

    You're quite the gentleman, BB. Buying girls their first gunpla! Just make sure it's not their last! Lure them deeper into the dark side with... an ACGUY! Girls really dig it!

  13. Getting gals into gunpla... Hmmm... won't work for me since the girls that i know so far are willing to spend hundreds of dollars on garments but not these stuff. I bet if i buy her a gunpla she'll just hand it down to her little brother or something like that... BTW, Happy Birthday!

  15. Ladies like a suit with curves, so they default to the Zaku?

    Anyway, the first one is always free, isn't it Buster? ;)

  16. I'm gonna have to agree with Z on this one. I have my current girlfriend hooked on building and customizing Acguys, because I got her a plush of one at some point during high school (was just a friend then), and she found one some time later. Was buying them since then, and painting them in some really unsuitable (rather unmanly, I suppose) colors.

  17. thanks everyone! my party is tomorrow finally. been too busy to even have a proper party! haha

    acguy! yes i can see how that would be suitable for girls. it is kind of cute!

    lupes - i dont know why they choose it but there it is. maybe thats why. this guy picked up the zaku warrior based on the colour scheme. it fits in with her room. first one is always free buddy. gotta hook em in somehow! haha

    k' - i feel you buddy. typical girls. thats just how it goes!

    z - the difference between the 2 is pretty slight. they're almost the same thing. yeah not their last is a different issue. usually they're in and then they're out but that enough. all i need is for them to try it once so they now how fun it can be and how detailed the kits are. haha acguy again! i dont know if i want these girls to get as addicted as i am. maybe i do! haha

    gaigun and ASM - yeah that was a lot of fun! thanks for coming out to meet me!

    igro - gunpla harem!? haha well i'll do what i can! but its hard to find even one thats interested in trying it!

    asakura - actually after helping my friend with her zaku the lunamaria version is looking like quite a good kit to me too!

    G.G. - haha that was her only comment? ouch. lol

    gunstray - there WAS a cake actually! a couple of cakes!

    bearded - what is it with women and zeon suits?! is it the mono eye? i dont get it. i thought the gm looks a bit more friendly but... no. zakus. i guess i dont really understand women after all
