I got back into Gunpla after a little while. I built a few kits from The Witch From Mercury, now I'm fully invested in GQuuuuuuX. I've increased my backlog of kits by a bit. Working on the MGSD Strike Freedom now, MG Sazabi Ver Ka is next.

And new new Beyblade X products from Takara Tomy just shipped.

God, my hobby is collecting more hobbies, and I'm so frustrated with myself for it.

Cool! I know nothing about these kits but building them sounds rewarding. How long do you spend on a kit, normally?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago

Depends on the complexity of the kit. I like to take my time and enjoy the building process but not get bogged down with doing full paint jobs. So, anywhere from 2-20 hours. The PG Unleashed RX-78-2 was amazing, took me over a week to finally finish it, but I haven't done any decals yet. Someday.
