My real name is Vincent Kha, and I'm the creator and administrator of www.GundamHotel.com I got my start in Gundam as a child but being in North America during the 90s it was quite rare to run across any Gundam related material. Luckily being in Vancouver BC, the multicultural capital of Canada, it was not long before Gundam models, toys and collectibles started popping up all over the place. And as fate would have it, a friend asked me to tag along with him to an Anime/Hobby shop where sat against a wall was the MG FAZZ Sentinel. It was love at first sight and catalyst to my fascination with Gundam and all Mecha. Anyways I'd like to give a warm welcome to all new members and asked that everyone give a quick introdution of themselves here. , Vincent

Hello! I go by the name Izach, and I recently came across this website by chance of looking for decent reviews on certain MG kits! I see this website has been around for a year or so, with not much members, so I decided to sign up and discuss here about gundams? About myself - I go by Izach, Currently living in the US, Korean heritage background, with exposure to Gundam when I was about 14~15 years old. I started building kits starting with HG models, within the Wing Zero series. Lost interest to the whole gundams kits, until recently in Early November encountering Gundam 00 series. Purchased the HG Throne series, and found that HGs are very fragile and hard to paint onto. And currently waiting for the Gundam Destiny MG to ship to start building but yea thats me. Great website btw, I will read the reviews here before I purchase my future kits, since its great information ! -Izach

Hi izach, welcome to GundamHotel.com, I'm glad you found this site useful and thank you for sharing a bit of your background. It's partly my fault this site does not have more members as I rarely update the content, but as in-active as I am, this site will keep on living as the hosting is paid for untill 2011 already and I plan to keep running it so long as I'm working and can pay the hosting fees :-)
, Vincent

Hey, my name is Justin, and I am a huge fan of Gundam, and Macross. I bumped into this site while looking for reviews on Gundam 0079, and I decided to sign up to the board. I am currently a moderator at another message board, which concentrates on video games, so this place is a great escape for me. I am currently working on a few resin kits, and I plan on fully completing a Wing Zero Custom Perfect Grade by the end of this summer (It was a birthday present from my fiancee!!). I live in Calgary, so I am somewhat close to the forum admin, and I even have family where he lives

I got into gundam during the whole american/wing gundam craze, and became a big gunpla fan shortly afterwards. I was only collecting for a few years before school took over. Recently, I've found myself with a lot of free time and money, and have gotten back into the hobby.
Most of what I've buit in the past was from HGUC, and endless waltz although I also built the PG Wing Zero (before my first master grade, at that.)
Since returning to the hobby, I've been getting all the hg 144 seed kits, 1/100 no grades, and various master grade kits. All of which I'll be putting up reviews on, at the main site.

Yo and Hello! Ran into this site by accident and decided to make the most of an opportunity, so... here I am!! Like everybody else in North America I got into GUNPLA way back in 2000 during the premiere run of Mobile Suit Gundam Wing.. Got my very first kit from Toys R Us which was a 1/100 HG of Deathscythe Hell. It was then, the addiction began and now 12 years later I am a bonafide Gundam fanatic and GUNPLA collector!! My only personal policy when it comes to purchasing/building said models - 1: With the exception of SD Gundams & warships/Giant MSAs I only get models of at least 1/100 scale and above; 2: I only purchase Gundams from series I've already seen (or are related to the series) or else there's no appreciation for the model... Here's a gallery of my collection via my deviant art page: renegade-v.deviantart.com/gallery/9213598Anyway, hope to have fun and learn a lot from all of you and vice-versa!! Thanks for having me!!!
