Loots & Purchases 14

Another long MIA from me, been real lazy to blog recently, lol
BUT, today(or actually yesterday), 19/11/2011, is a very special date for me. It's so special, that I have to blog it no matter what. The reason it's not because Malaysia's Gundam Builders World Cup(GBWC) Open Category is being held in Sungei Wang Plaza from 18th to 23rd November, nor because the Junior Category is being held in MIECC from 18th to 28th November.
It's because I finally bought my dream gundam kit, MG 1/100 MSA-0011[Ext] Ex-S Gundam!!!!!! *cheering*

Finally made up my mind to buy it after holding back for so long. There was a small warehouse sale during the GBWC, and the MG Ex-S was on sale at a price of RM265. Not a very big discount from the usual price of RM280, or RM272 of Gamers Arena's price. However, I thought, since I'm going to buy it sooner or later(the only kit I would die for), why not buy now at this cheaper price? So I went ahead and bought it ^^
Before this I wanted to buy the HG Hyaku Shiki GPB Color (Byaku Shiki), but my friend, Nicholas Chua aka ascentic advised me not to do so, for now, as the price of RM68 is overpriced.
I took his advise, and went to look for another worthy kit, if any, to purchase. Had my eye on the MG RX-178 Super Gundam, since it was rare, and the good thing is I can mount the G-defender on MG RX-178 MkII v2.0 when I buy it in the future. But then I thought when will that be? Moreover I'm not really loving RX-178. Then I saw workers bringing in new batches of stock, so I went and checked out what new items were brought in. That's when I saw MG Ex-S Gundam and the rest are history~

I'm definitely broke now, trying to salvage some cash for the upcoming Mcmodel Nu Gundoom HWS, still surveying for a good price. But this purchase today is not the only reason I'm broke, but also due to I've ordered ALOT of bootleg gundam kits from Taobao. It's not convenient for me to tell the price here, but all I can say it's BIG =X. I ordered a total of 7 kits, that's right, 7!!! Here's the the stuffs I've ordered:

List:
HG 1/144 Gaplant TR-5
HG 1/144 Psycho Gundam
NG 1/100 Akatsuki Gundam
MG 1/100 Sinanju
MG 1/100 Deathscythe Gundam EW
MG 1/100 Deathscythe Hell Custom
MG 1/100 Zaku II J-Type
*I'm not really sure which version of this Zaku II is. It's either the normal version, or the MS Igloo version. They are suppose to be of different shade of green, but I can't differentiate it by using photos from web.

Now that's alooooooot of kits to build, adding up to the large number of backlogs I already had.
Other than Mcmodel Nu Gundoom HWS, no more purchases for me until next year, the most until Chinese New Year, lol. I hope I'm not tempted to buy the upcoming TT/GG release of MG Wing Zero Custom, or worse, the TT/GG MG Hi-Nu Gundam Kai! >_<
That's it for this post, I'm currently working on my MG Strike E + IWSP, hope I'm not too lazy to post up a WIP, lol.

P/S: I'm starting to number my 'Loots & Purchases' posts, it's head cracking task to think up a different title everytime, lol.
