Finished up HG Gundam Calibarn (Permet Score Five). Had that in the backlog a while. Don't even remember why I bought this version instead of the normal retail version lol. Anyway great kit, as expected from Witch From Mercury High Grades. #Gunpla

Wonderful new playmat and sleeves came in from @rideth-mochi.bsky.social Looking forward to using this for GD03 launch next week :)

Finished up robot Sailor Moo- I mean Nobel Gundam. #Gunpla

Finished building this HG Gyan I received for Secret Santa recently. Aside from the stickers being annoying this is a really neat kit. Definitely my favorite Gyan design. #Gunpla

Got another kit done. This funky HG Mandor (Mandala) Gundam from G Gundam that I got a few days ago. Ended up building this in one sitting. Very different kit then usual as can seen. Hope we get more of the weirder G stuff. #Gunpla

Did the new starter event at my LCS, got the Hathaway deck and only one win with that. Not a good matchup against the other deck. Thankfully LCS had enough product to actually sell 3 more of whichever combination of decks you needed for playsets at MSRP when it ended. Bonus pack pull: #GundamTCG

Finished the HG Gundam Naion that came in from P Bandaid a few months ago. Cool build like other Witch from Mercury HG's. Pretty sick design for one from a manga side story. Just kinda wish this came with a stand, getting it to stand up by itself was a challenge lol. #Gunpla

Locals win #2 for this season. Not my favorite possible promo to get but I'll take it. Played Blue/Purple. 2/3 wins were mirrors. Other one was vs. GW Wing. Got lucky and they didn't draw Wing Zero. #GundamTCG

Finished up this MGSD Aerial I started in December. First MGSD I've built. Very fun kit. I see why this line has been praised. I would love to get the Barbatos one when I have a chance. #Gunpla

Bought a new iPad and got an Apple Pencil Pro as a gift over the holidays so I've been learning to draw with them using Procreate for fun. Haven't drawn/painted in a looooong time because the mess and all the supplies needed. Just drew this based on an image downloaded as reference for now to learn.

First win of the new year for Gundam TCG. Also regularly buying Pokemon cards from the store paid off again, owner immediately pulled me aside for unannounced Ascended Heroes pre-orders. Or maybe I should be embarrassed he knew to do that 😂 Also had to buy this card. #GundamTCG #PokemonTCG

2025 is over so it's ok to post GOTY lists now. Here's mine. backloggd.com/u/LazyBob/li...

I've finally finished up my Destined Rivals master set. Was able to find the few remaining cards at local stores the last few days. Thankfully had credit from trading in bulk. This makes the third set I've finished. On to number 4 :) #PokemonTCG

I hate my local game store. Fuckers stole a good chunk of my money the past few weeks from getting in good condition vintage stuff. I walked in today and was immediately shown the Snorlax because they knew I'd buy it 😭 #PokemonTCG

Finished this P-Bandai GN Flag I started after putting my bigger project on pause. Cool kit. Love these Gundam 00 grunt designs. #gunpla

Last year I lost two bets and had to fulfil their terms within the year. As of today both are done. Per one bet, all of Kingdom Hearts up until 3 has been completed. Per the other bet, I have now finished chapters 1-9 of Honkai Impact 3rd.

Ended up going to a free card show at a dying mall nearby. Sold/traded some slabs i wasn't attached to and picked up a bunch of Destined Rivals cards I was missing. Just missing 5 from the set now. The Garchomp SIR is the only expensive one left though. #PokemonTCG

Picked up a collection box and Mega Dream box from a local store and had some big W's. Think I got to end the year on this for Pokemon cards. Can't go up from this and the Victini yesterday (Also budget for that's now blown). #PokemonTCV

Got my hands on some Black Bolt and got very lucky. #PokemonTCG

Since the goose is on hold and I'd like to do some less demanding stuff to relax, it's a perfect time for this brand new P Bandai kit that just came in last week. Also probably a good idea to actually do one of them right after arrival for once in case of parts being lost or breaking lol. #Gunpla

Back to the much delayed goose. Still want to paint it but took a bit long and temperature outdoors for airbrushing looks like it'll be a bit low when I'd have time. Getting the armor pieces cut off sprues, sanded, and stored away until the weather is better and putting this on ice. #Gunpla

Came in 2nd at a 13 person Gundam TCG local. Got my first winners pack for this season. #GundamTCG

Opened the Phantasmal Flames Booster Box and UPC I got from my LCS. No Charizard but some good hits from the booster box. UPC was barren until the last 5 packs which had the two SIR. So happy I don't have to pay up for the Gardevoir lol. #PokemonTCG

Hits from the pre release. #PokemonTCG

Pokemon pre release time again. #PokemonTCG

Finally got new nippers and resumed this. Finished up the legs. Frame of the backpack next then the busy work of cutting, sorting, and test fitting armor pieces ahead of painting everything. #Gunpla

Got this card back from grading via my LGS. First time sending to BGS. Used them since the slab looks better than PSA and I wanted to display this card with my Gunpla. LGS owner was nice enough to cover the shipping cost for grading since he was sending his own sub with it anyway. #GundamTCG

Also got this design works book for the movie that comes with a couple film strips for it too.

Got a Gunpla trial kit from a Gquuuuuux movie screening. Never built one of these kits that didn't need nippers to remove parts from the runner. Really impressive what they were able to do for a kit made from a single runner. There's obvious sacrifices but the result is great for what it is. #gunpla

Thank God for local shops making sure regular customers get first crack at preorders with limits. In a perfect world that for MSRP is the bare minimum but seen too many local places charging as much as the market allows. Line at the store was crazy just for this. #PokemonTCG

Picked up a Booster Box preorder from a local store and damn already completed the line lol. I didn't expect that to happen so quick. #PokemonTCG

Went to one last pre release. Glad I did since I got this Bulbasaur. Now I just need the Venusaur SIR to complete the connecting art for the evolution line. #PokemonTCG

This finally got delivered. Happy to have it for my collection. The Kyurem went straight to eBay to recoup fees/pay for singles later. #PokemonTCG

Went to another free pre-release at the same store today. Didn't show up ultra early since yesterday showed that was unnecessary lol. It was still packed, 60 people. Got 8 packs since me and my third round opponent were both 2-0 and decided to split the 2 extra from going undefeated. #PokemonTCG

No hits from the build and battle box but got one in the packs given at the end of the event. #PokemonTCG

Pre-release day! #pokemonTCG

I don't know why I'm getting this lucky today. I found Destined Rivals Booster Bundles at a Best Buy too. I wasn't even trying to find this stuff. Just killing some time before going to a movie nearby. I hadn't seen anything in these big retail stores since October last year.

Stopped by target and was supposed to see some pokemon tins behind the customer service counter for once. Limit 2 thankfully.

This PSA sub was two weeks late but this makes it worth it. Also not shown, a Tyranitar PC stamp promo 10 and Kyurem SIR PSA 10. A Mewtwo and Charizard I sent only got 9's though I expected that for the former. #PokemonTCG

Had a couple unopened poster collection I got from Walmart. Decided to open them now. #PokemonTCG

Went to a local trade night. Traded duplicates of stuff I had for these. Pretty straight forward trades with stuff of similar value so everyone was happy. #PokemonTCG

Won another local 3-0. With BG Rush this time. No big prize though, there were 10 of us and we split a box so everyone got 2 packs and the last 4 were split by me and 2nd place. We ran a second tournament again after since there was time. Only 2-1 for that. #GundamTCG

Came in 3rd in a 19 person Gundam TCG local with a shitty R/W ZAFT deck. Top 3 all got winners packs so I got the Duo. Also got 8 packs for 3rd (winner got a booster box). #GundamTCG

Won another Gundam TCG 3-0. 7 players tonight. Went so fast the owner asked us if we wanted to run a second. Only 2-1 with that. Played the BR ping deck again. Owner was cool and put up whole booster boxes for prizing for both. We all agreed everyone would get at least 2 packs. Walked away with 11.

The TCG gods have smiled on me again. #GundamTCG

Was lucky enough to get through on P-Bandai and secure this Gundam Card Game Accessory set before it nearly instantly sold out. Love Wing. Only thing I would want more is one for G.

3-0 for store tournament with 11 players. Got the winner pack which had this card and $50 store credit. #GundamTCG

RIP Godhands. Gonna need a new one 😭 #Gunpla

3-1 for 3rd place at my local for Gundam TCG. Ran a Blue/Red ping deck. Surprisingly did not face any Wing Zero ramp decks after facing a ton the previous weeks.

More Not Goose progress. Some things are not fully snapped together so it's easy to remove parts to put armor on later. #Gunpla
