RG GP01Fb Full Burnern - WIP 3

I forgot how tiny RG kits were

A lot was going on in my life and scale model took a backseat for quite some time. There was a few times where I wanted to continue with this build but after taking it out from the box and looking at the instructions, I did not have the spark or motivation to build it so back into the box it went. I kinda lost interest until recently where I visited a small-scale model shops and they were selling military kits instead of gunplas and somehow that ignited my passion again. Maybe it reminded me of my roots and how I got into this hobby in the first place.

Recently I went back to my hometown and packed some of the smaller scale kits and took it back with me back. The plan was to practice/improve my brush painting skills and techniques on the smaller kits since they were more inexpensive and also work to reduce the backlog. Obviously this and the GP01 was in the list of kits to take back as they are still in WIP.

On the way back I stopped at a new gaming/hobby shop called Impulse Gaming at Juru Autocity and went for a little look, a little see. Spotted something which I was eyeing and knew I had to get it as there were not a lot of shops which are selling this anymore. This will be the first kit added to my backlog after a long time

Vanzo 1989 Batmobile

 I am Back, Man (Batman)

After a long hiatus from building and updating the blog due to work and other happenings in life, I am (hopefully) back with a more regular update on the blog and to clear as many backlogs as possible. Before I am able to continue with all the kits which are currently in the WIP stage, I will have to transport them over as I have been relocated to another state for work and the rest of my kits are still in my hometown.

First post after returning will be about the best Batmobile in Batman history: 1989 Batmobile from Vanzo. Vanzo is an air freshener company which are "mainly" made of plant extracts and contains zero alcohol, formaldehyde, benzene and toluene. The missus saw it on Instagram and shared the post with me. One thing led to the next and I am waiting for the product to arrive.

Decool 7116 The Ultimate Batmobile - WIP 1

WOW!! That's huge

First off I would like to apologise for the hiatus from this blog for so long. Mentioned in the previous post that I got a new job and can't seem to find either the time or mood to do any model kits or bricks building until the recent Christmas break (I have been riding a lot but just around the little island). I went to the 'toy room' and took this st out. It is the Decool's version of The Batmobile Ultimate Collectors Edition from Lego but at a cheaper price.

Without anymore delays, let's get on with the built.

The box:

The 4 sides of the box

DC Super Heroes blind packs

An unexpected find

A quick update before the post on the blind packs. Started a new job and will be busier than usual. The responsibilities are still the same as the previous job mentioned in this post. Only difference is the salary and the benefits offered which are way better than the previous company.

I am also taking the Demak out more often now as I now have a 'temporary permit' to ride it to work. This is considered a milestone to me as I always wanted to the bike to work. Gives me time to collect my thoughts of the day.

Recently I have been thinking of creating a bucket list and either post it here or create another blog for it. It will consist of all the things I want to do and there will be a post on the adventure when it is completed. Still undecided on what I want to do yet so all suggestions are welcomed.

Anyways, back to the post. I went into Times bookstore and was browsing around when something caught my eye. It was the Star Wars wrist band. Took a look at it and next to it was a box filled with blind packs from DC Comics.

This is Series 1 and I have no idea how long it was released or when it was released. Took a look at the back to see who was up for grabs and immediately knew who I wanted to get: Batman

Sheng Yuan SY630A Ironman's Mecha
