There are many mecha collectors who prefer their model kits and figures to be on the larger end of the spectrum, primarily due to their shelf presence.

This will be a short one since I just continued my build of the HG GQuuuuuuX [Endymion Unit Activated] and there’s really nothing new as build experiences go.

Retaining that rigid definition of being “a comprehensive index with the primary purpose of tracking and organizing collectibles.”, it basically means CATALOGUE entries are not reviews but more of my overall thoughts and impressions on a figure or model kit. Reviews would still be present, definitely, but they’ll be more of featured articles.
I’m targeting further expansion of my visual story telling through more photos across the site. Whether it’s an old section like The CATALOGUE, the relaunched One Shots galleries, or even quick blog posts. That also includes the new photo-oriented and responsive site layout.
