Interesting, with all of the Gundam references associated with the gen x, I'm surprised there is no dedicated Gundam/Gunpla thread.
Like most people in the US, I was introduced to Gundam back in the early 2000s on Toonami. It was the Gundam Wing series. Even though that was nearly 20 years ago, I just recently got back into it. Most notably I started making Gunpla (Gundam models). Here are some pics and videos of the builds I've done since I've started. Who else is into building Gunpla?
Here is the link to my channel going through the beginning and the builds I've done so far. I'm trying to post a video a week and will be adding more car videos now that I got the civic.

I grew up in Hong Kong and Gundam was big part of my childhood. I started with Gundam G and wing but my main series will be Gundam Seed and Destiny, followed by Gundam 00.

I havent been following much but I really dont like the current Gunpla series. Gundam will always be a war animation for me, not some in anime video game competition. I doubt they can create another Lacus Clyne. :dunno::dunno:

The two Gunpla series Build Divers and Build Fighters are more geared towards kids. My daughter loves them and my wife actually watched them. That's how I got them interested in building the models. I've binged those three series plus Unicorn and am now on Iron Blooded Orphans. All of which you can watch on the youtube channel Gundam Info dubbed in English. I recommend you giving them a try.

I like them in Japanese with English Sub better. I watched Iron Blooded Orphans, I like the retro old school style with the story line

Gundam Info also has them in Japanese with the English subtitles. Check it out.
One of the reasons why I like the Build Divers and Build Fighters series are the customization/upgrades that the gunpla are given. Much like how we customize our cars.

Wow....that is some incredible work. Do you prefer the MG over the HG? I noticed at least in the pics more MGs.
