This is my blog about all my interests, be it about literature, politics, anime or just my personal musings. My name is Richie Ramos. Pleased to meet you. Prepare to die. No, just kidding, haha. | |

Earliest known photo of Cog. I've been reading up on how today's college graduates seem to expect great salaries and the corporate ladder waiting for them to get up to the ranks of upper management in five years. I've read how many people say that...

I'd been wanting to get one of these kits into my collection for a long time, and from the looks of how much stuff it's got, I heartily agree that this is one superior amphibious attack mecha. Based on the Geara Zulu frame (from Gundam Unicorn), the...

I'll be honest, I wasn't all that hot about this particular Gundam kit - I'm not really a fan of the Black Tri-Stars in general (oh, for the days when their name was translated as the Black Trinary). However, upon assembling this kit, I was pleasantl...

I have to say that the head/face design for this mecha is one of my absolute favorites in the AGE series. That being said, the G-Exes frame being an ace version of the Shaldoll (and thus the Jackedge being an ace variant for the Rogue) makes it very...

I actually had this with me when I received the Perfect Strike, but I only had time to build the two Rogue kits this past weekend. Here are some photos and observations about the Shaldoll Rogue. The Rogue is basically a recolor of the Shaldoll n...

This is my final entry on teh HGGS 1/144 Perfect Strike Gundam. I'll have some observations after the photos. As it is, enjoy! I attempted to pose it as if it were charging into an enemy. Tried to imitate the manual's action pose. Close...

I've been working a bit on the Perfect Strike. Observations: 1) I'll take back the idea that the mounting arm of the Launcher Cannon is less maneuverable than the FG version. It practically has the same range of motion, just a new way o...
