I think u meant the gundam docked version and the usual ones?

Docked version comes with a base stand, one or two special decals for the arms. That's it.

I think it is easier to use plaplate to make sword edge.
no idea abt cones. u can try making using epoxy putty and shape it when it is half dry. sanding is going to be a nightmare though, so u need to shape it as much as u can when half dry

Yep! Thanks for the info! I guess no point getting it then.

Actually let me rephrase. Is it possible to rent or to borrow an airbrush to do the spray painting, cause last time when I was still into 40k I spent $$$ on many cans of spray paint .

Try hobby art @work. I think u can rent their airbrush onsite at $7per hour or something. Call them to enquire. But I dunno provide mask anot lol. It can get quite potent especially lacquer based paint

If u go to the fair, can look at the RG GFT version of the RX-78. Its more detailed than the normal RG one.

at $25 a year, it is cheaper if u are going to spend hours airbrushing. downside is that the club is only open on sunday afternoons.
and dun provide paint also

Yes.
I feel docked version nothing much, but at least more unique than the normal RG.

seems like dock version just an extra platform to set your set...

GFT at least got a stand to pose...

Anyone knows thè different btw 2 mg1/100 rx78-2 3.0,the gundam front tokyu and the e.f.s.f proto veŕ?
