Zastie Interview : Billy Adi Wiguno

Hello bootleg lovers, this is another interview I did, this one also one of my high school friend and he is also a veteran in gunpla. And yeah, he has so many old gunpla. He collected gunpla with his big brother. Yes, I often go to his house, and I looked at his shelf, the collection is so many. And there are some old kits like HG Deathscythe, HG Deathscythe TV version and any other old HG Wing Series. So yeah, let’s see what I get from him.

Hey, Billy, do you like gunpla? Why?

Yes, because Gunpla is just so cool and it can be modified as our imagination.

Since when?

Since I was kindergarten because that time there was Gundam Wing Series on TV.  At last I fell in love and actually I do like Japanese Mecha.

What Gundam anime series have you watched?

So many actually. The Universal Century : Gundam 1979, 08th MS Team, 0083 Stardust Memories, Char’s Counterattack, Unicorn. The other are Gundam Seed, Seed Destiny, Wing Gundam, 00 Gundam, Gundam X, Gundam Build Fighter

What is your favorite gundam anime series?

Gundam Unicorn. Because the design of the MS is good and the animation is cool.

What is your favorite MS?

The UC : MSN-06S Sinanju, MSA-0011 S Gundam, AMS-119 Geara Doga

Non UC: XXXG-01H2 Gundam Heavyarms Custom, GN-000 0 Gundam, MMS-01 Serpent Custom

What kind of gunpla do you like?

Gundam that the shape or the proportion looks hefty, wielding unique weapons and the overall design looks very nice.

What gunpla will you buy in near future?

Maybe some HG kits like MSA-0011 S Gundam, Zaku Warrior atau Montero (Klim Nick Custom), etc

Mention 1 gunpla that you really want to have

MG Sinanju NOT the Ver.Ka one. Yep, the OVA

Do you know bootleg gunpla? What do you know about it?

Yes, I know. The company is from China isn’t it? Usually the quality is so different with the Bandai.

What do you expect from bootleg gunpla?

Usually the quality is so bad. The plastic quality is bad, the joint is bad, and the color is not that good.

Do you want to get 1? If yes, what type?

Yes, I want the one that Bandai never released. Such as MG Gerbera Tetra Kai or MG Tallgeese 3. Although now Bandai release the MG Tallgeese 3 in P-Bandai.

Why do you choose that?

As what I said before, I want Gunpla that Bandai never released. Also the one that the quality almost par with the Bandai.

Can you give me your gunpla collection list?

HG/HGUC 1/144 :
Sinanju, Gerbera Tetra, Kshatriya, Gundam Unicorn Banshee Norn Destroy Mode, Gundam Unicorn Phenex Destroy Mode GFT Clear.Ver, 0 Gundam Type ACD, Serpent Custom.

MG 1/100 :

Thank you so much, Billy. Hope you can get your MG Sinanju OVA soon. :)

Well, pretty interesting interview we got here. Yeah, are you surprised? He has Gundam Unicorn Phenex Destroy Mode GFT Clear.Ver. So, once again, MG Tallgeese 3 wanted by a veteran gunpla collector. I think it’s enough for this interview. Feel free to comment and see you in the next post. :)
