Event Horizons

Continuing to imagineer the Gundam RedLegger, and threw myself a hurdle I didn't need.  A couple years ago, B-Club had a series of resin Gundam bust kits (as linked in a previous post) and I was particularly interested in the one for the GP04 Gerbera.  While Gundam fans know that the GP04 eventually became the Gerbera Tetra in 0083, the bust design appears to have a lot more in common with the Alex Gundam of 0080--with some improvements that aren't seen in other Gundam family designs.  So it lent itself very well to my project--if I could get one and if it was hardware compatible with the pieces I already had or could get.

And I can't find one for sale...on any side of the Rim.

My alternatives in the same product line include the Prototype Zeta #1 and the GP00 Blossom, but I'm not as excited about either.  The Blossom isn't much different from the Zephranthes/Stamen family which followed it, and the Prototype Zeta just looks too strange and implausible.

My more practical side is trying to tell me to just build what I already have.  It may come to that.
