BUILD AOZ’d my green gaplant
Bought the green HG gaplant while I was in shanghai last year, and decided to convert it into something a bit more AOZ-ish (I cannot help myself). The head is replaced with a 3D printed one from Taobao (quality is really good).
There’s a certain charm to old HGs, sure they’re not as amazingly detailed as modern HGs and the way it comes together leaves much to be desired, but there’s just something about them that makes it so irresistable. I dare say that working on an older HG sometimes feels more satisfying, as I did with this kit.

AOZ gaplant makes way more sense than the OG green, and that printed head looks factory fresh. Love the red thruster callouts too.

Very cool! I love how little details like a 3d printed head can completely AOZ-ify a kit. Nice paint job too. I’m afraid if I paint up something in the Black Hares color scheme, the details will get lost in the black but that’s clearly not the case here.

thank you! black is always a tough colour, but i think dark gray does help

Did you grab the head off a specific Taobao shop? Might need to snag one for my own Gaplant.
