I've built of few RG kits since I started Gunpla. None have disappointed me, and the RG Strike Freedom doesn't either. I built the PG Strike Freedom last year, and it is a great big monster of a kit, but it's also problematic: the wings are delicate to position and their … Continue Reading ››

So fortunately we got our internet connection back, and life can continue!
