to America. Sadly, it is the opposite. I mostly feel alone in my
Gunpra devotion. Oh I imagine it's true in Japan and parts of Asia.
It was an uphill battle here in the Philippines - Gunpla is still seen
as a toy, really. but yeah, we swap tips, show off our kits, and even
swap parts - we just finished a buy and sell day, and it's amazing how
people were willing to snap up old kits for use with mods and other such
things...
7. True Otaku have built at least one Gunpra. Gunpra has pervaded so
much of Japanese visual culture that only by building Gunpra can one
understand the nuanced subtexts of Anime and manga. The true depth of
Keroro Gunsou cannot hope to be grasped by one who hasn't placed
polycap C inbetween parts A12 and A13.

ROTFL. somehow, i think that's partially true.
