Max Capacity!!

*Edit: Click on the pictures for a much clearer picture!*

Okay, its crunch time...literally. Here's a picture of my main Gundam Shelf.

Yikes, right? I'm "packed to the rafters" as they say and really, before I begin the S Gundam, I need to figure something out for more space.

I took some closer shots so you guys can see what I'm working with.



Here's the left side of the shelf. My Powered GM MG Conversion kit, the PG Mk. II, and MG GPo1 are the most easily viewed. They're all painted kits. The Mk.II and Gp01 are hand painted, the Powered GM marks my first Air Brushing attempt (and resin conversion as well!) Around them are the GFF FA Gundam and Gundam 05, MiA Gundam Hazel, Zaku II Ultimate Op. Stand Art, and various Robust Silhouettes. I think the HCM Pro Death Scythe was jut cut off in the shot.


Here's the right side of the shelf. My PG RX-78-1, MG Alex, and MG Zaku II F2 can be seen. My MG Blue Destiny Conversion is just cut off, but you can see its 100mm Machine Gun behind the Zaku II. Then we have the GFF Nu Gundam and F90-2 along with the Ultimate Op Stand Art Gundam Mk.II Titans. You can just see the wing of the HCM Pro Wing Gundam as well.

And here's the master piece. The GP04 Bust that I waited for more than a month arrived and look at what an Amazing job GundamPro Shop did (Ebay seller GundamProShop) - I don't have the lights on, as I want to conserve the batter for as long as possible. You can also see the MG X1 behind it, both are actually dead center on my shelf.

Here's my TV. My MG Gp02 and 1/144 Resin FA Gundam Mk.II as well as my DX V2 Assault were moved to the TV as clearly, there is no room on the main shelf. How is the GP02 actually holding it's shield you ask? It's permanently plastered to the display stand. I grew tired of it falling all the time. This works great though! The FA Gundam Mk.II is mounted on it's display stand in a similar fashion to the V2...a copper pipe running strait between the legs and attached into the base. He's very very fragile (I think it was a re-cast resin kit...actually, I'm sure of it) so this way, he won't fall ever again!

Here's my Ultimate Operation Shelf. Q did a post today on various "Gashapon" collectibles in Japan, and Ultimate Operation is by far my favorite. The GP01, FA Gundam, Aile Strike and Dom Tropen can be seen, but the shelf actually goes down about four more cubes on each side. On top is my 1/100 Leopard Destroy (He's been through a lot...lost most of its weapons in moving) and 1/100 Burning/God Gundam from G Gundam. Its actually a toy, but it was a present so I keep it on display. I'm not a huge fan of G Gundam, but the Burning Gundam is pretty cool. It's fun to use in Dynasty Warriors Gundam for Xbox 360.

Finally, here's the "collective shot" of the shelf again. I added my Ez8 High Mobility Custom MG Conversion (of my own design..it was pretty tough) and you can see it on the far right side next to the Zaku II.

I gotta figure something out guys! I need a new shelf or something because I have the MG S Gundam, MG Aile Strike, and MG Z plus to add, plus a kit of the Mobile Assault Carrier Albion from 0083, and a 1/144 GM Cold Climate as well!



Until next time -

Jaa~

You're running out of space for your Gunplas XD

Get a glass cabinet to solve the population crisis? Or tone down their action poses to allow more rooms for everyone? ^^;

Thanks for the picture of GP04G's bust as well. It's 1/35 scale right? That's a really nice display item.

Thanks NK, I think that's the plan for right now, a nice glass cabinet.

Glad you like the GP04! I'm so happy with how it turned out!

Q said...

A glass cabinet would be nice. I need to think about what to do with my collection of various things as well.

I'm glad that your GP04 came all in good shape after such a long wait. Take more pictures of it when you have the time!

Apt-1B said...

I agree! But right now I'm flat broke..so I've got to think of a comprimise.

I will Q, I want to do a post on resin kits vs. gunpla so there will be plenty of detailed pictures of the GP04 to come!
