  1. A total failure. Please don't insult the original design of Prometheus Gundam with this.

    1. At least he tried,something that you didn't,right?. Effort is always appreciated in the Gunpla world.

  2. That is no Prometheus Gundam. It's just the Buster with a few Heavyarm's parts and a jumble of weapons glued together to look like a cross.

    1. "Dont critisise it unless you can top it."
      That's not really a valid point, otherwise, we'd never get anything improved since those with great ideas but bad hands won't be able to criticize someone with good skills but bad concepts.

      However, some of the criticisms are quite shallow and sounds fanboy-ish. Honestly, if you want to see an actual model, wait for Bandai or some group to make a kit or create it yourself. Don't expect someone to make it for you and don't fault someone who makes something that's different from canon.
      He obviously could've used the MG HA but chose not to, I believe that's his preference and we shouldn't fault him for it.

  5. Instead of looking at the effort that went into this work you guys criticize it for not being an exact replica of another MS? Maybe you guys are missing the point about what gunpla is...

    1. Uhm, if you're saying Gunpla is about making an original creation, then... this guy fails. He was trying to recreate the Prometheus from Frozen Teardrop using a Buster base, and that's called being stupid.

    2. That's why they'll never make it to the world tier as a Build Fighter.

    3. since when was the definition of gunpla limited to 'orignal' creation? it's having the option/freedom to do whatever you want to your own kit. then i guess by your narrow definition of gunpla, anyone who builds a straight build fails cuz they were unable to build an 'orignal' kit.

  6. Nice one
    If u use heavyarms as base, it will be better :D

  7. Maybe it should be called Prometheus Buster Gundam?

  8. We're not saying it isn't a good looking kit. It looks fantastic. Just don't call it something it's not.

  9. Should've used Heavyarms as the base, would look much better in my opinion

    ReplyDelete
  10. ...lol, thats not exactly prometheus but tbh I stopped for a little bit and said "wut.....?" Thats not what I pictured since you know... its supposed to be heavy arms.

  11. Every time I see that Prometheus Gundam I'm reminded of Nicholas D. Wolfwood from Trigun. :D

  12. very nice man, hats down

  13. Who cares what prometheus gundam looks like.
    I'd say this looks much more better than the original one

    ReplyDelete
  14. Looks nice. Other than naming issues (since people will react negatively when it's named Prometheus and they see Buster) it's quite good.
    And I agree with shane89, he could've used Heavy arms if he really intended to make a GunPla of Frozen Teardrops' Prometheus.

    And great effort on the gatling gun. My first instinct is to modify Koto Grave Arms instead of putting together multiple guns

  15. LEARN TO SPELL PEOPLE!!!!!! oh, and your grammar sucks too.

  16. This is good, but shares too much resemblance to buster. Recolor would be better.

    ReplyDelete
  17. Yeah, this'd be better named Prometheus Buster Gundam. The head really gives it away.
    A not bad attempt though

    ReplyDelete
  18. I think the point is; don't call it the Prometheus Gundam if it isn't the Prometheus Gundam (which this definitely isn't). This is probably why fans of the original Prometheus designs are slamming it so bad.

    Otherwise, I think it's a pretty neat build. I've always wanted to do a Buster-Heavyarms kitbash.

  19. lol still better than Prime92's.

    ReplyDelete
  20. Ah yes, the Wolfwood gundam

    ReplyDelete
  21. Great build but when you slap a weapon to an Gundam, it doesn't make an entirely new Gundam. The Gundam build is pretty awesome but the weapon makes no sense.

    ReplyDelete
  22. Maybe the title should have retained the "by Capuchino" part so we can pretend it's a Prometheus designed to look like the Buster instead of the other way round.

  23. you guys are too sensitive about the names,why can't you just appreciate what's bein shown here... you criticize people's design, you talk as if your way better than them in making gunpla designs... let's see your work then....
