Sad story, but not sad enough to be crying over.

Since you did address the question to "GOD", maybe hes showing you material things don't last?

Ya...if you're gonna get upset over a Gundam, at least get upset over a 1/60th scale Perfect Grade Wing Zero Custom. They usually go for around $170 or more...$17 ain't nothing.

I've spent 200$ on a single gundam model kit, and have had the finger joints broken beyond repair, that's a nightmare

If it's the 1/100th Gundam Wing model kits. Those things are pieces of garbage.

I do not own a single 1/100th Gundam Wing model kit that didn't magically break on me. The arm joint on Natuku, leg and V-antenna on Sandrock, Leg joint on Deathscythe Hell, V-antenna and a joint on HEavyarms.

Damned shoddy materials.

The Gravity Monster strikes again!

He tried to take out my Masterpiece OP, but I fought and with the help of Superglue, won.

Now you, there's no hope....

I had the rear wings on my 1/100 Wing ZERO custom break. SO I got the Master Grade and it is much better. I have the V crest on my Sandrock break, and one of the smaller pieces on my Nataku break. However my Heavyarms and DeathscytheHell Custom have survived unscathed over the years. The Wing models are crappy compared to the more recent Seed and 00 models, especially anyhting Wufei piloted. While Nataku saw the feet issue fixed compared to the Shenlong and original Altron, the arms however, become flimsy.

Seriously, get a 1/100 Seed model (preferably the Duel) next time. Normally I would recommend Strike and Freedom, however the more expensive the Master Grade versions are far better, especially painted and detailed.

Besides a broken 1/100 Wing model is nothing compared to the crap I've faced lately. It could be far worse.

Most hobby shops (model stores and whatnot) will have a few, usually severely overpriced. But the internet, like most things. I personally use eBay, and gundam forums like Carbombya

Uh, one thing people aren't paying attention to. His location is Juarez City. (Mexico for those who don't know)

He must mean $17.50 US dollars, which translates as:

17.50 USD = 189.525 MXN

United States Dollars
1 USD = 10.8300 MXN

Mexico Pesos
1 MXN = 0.0923361 USD

If I'm correct in this assumption, then...to him that's quite a bit of dough.

Even if I'm incorrect, it might be something to remember the next time we want to criticize someone.

Maybe, just maybe...it'll work a little better than the approach taken here.

When someone's thread title is "GOD WHY ME", it's a little hard not to critique badly.

Could be a kid. Kids generally tend to not deal well with situations such as these.

How about having your 200 gig harddrive fall off your desk and break? I lost a lot of stuff that terrible morning, and it wasn't all porno.
Buy my RiD toys! They're awesome, I promise!!!!
