Gunpla Builders World Cup - Australian Finals
This Saturday just gone saw the second annual incarnation of the international Gunpla competition now known as GBWC (I'm glad they shortened it :) )
This year was quite staggering in terms of the level of effort and professionalism put in by the organizers HOBBYCO and BANDAI, the host convention SMASH!, and indeed by the entrants themselves!
For my full review of the event and many more pics, please head on over to the
Official Australian Gunpla Builders World Cup 2011 Wrap Up thread at Gundam Australia Forum
