I have 2 of the 3 models panel lined for my GBWC project, but have been fighting some burnout lately. I took a break for part of this weekend, while still making a bit of progress. I have a little less than 2 weeks to finish, which should be ample time, but I need to balance making steady progress without pushing myself too hard and burning out.
Regarding Setsuna:
::: spoiler spoiler
He sees Gundams as symbols of hope and peace, rather than just giant super-robots, so he wants to embody what they represent. In that regard, yes, he is a Gundam.

Just picked up the RG Force Impulse Gundam today. I haven't finished watching SEED yet so I'm once again breaking my rule of watching the show before building the kit, oh well lol
I started with the same self imposed rule. I’ve found that I don’t enjoy the build any less if I haven’t seen the show. But most of the time I will watch the show as I building the kit.
You gotta start saving now so you can get some of that plastic opium. I’ve built 2 Exia’s plus Kyrios and Dynames all in MG. They were fairly standard as far as builds go. Unicorn is challenging with all the moving panels and bad joints.

That's a good point, I definitely still enjoyed building the Moon and Crossbone Gundams despite not reading their respective mangas

I've found that watching various Gundam shows had made my wishlist grow...

I'm worried about what'll happen to my wallet when I watch 00 and Unicorn
