my daughter NICO won at GBWC Philippines 2011!

First of all congratulations to all the winners! Specially to all the MAC forum members who participated and won at the recently concluded Gunpla Builders World Cup Philippines ( will do a seprate post )! We have a new Philippine CHAMPION who will be representing our country at HongKong finals this December in Michael Costa aka BULASTOG at MAC forums.

The highlight of the event ( for me ) is not the MAC forum winners and participants... the highlight of GBWC Philippines 2011 is my daughter who joined for the first time and won as 2nd runner up in the New Challenger Junior Category!

My daughter NICO got a medal and some great prizes from Bankee ( official Bandai partner ) and was awarded her medal by sir Rey Cortez ( judge ). She was so happy and showed it when we got home. She told her mom that she won 8th place and then said it was a joke, coz she won as 2nd runner up and showed off her huge bronze medal.

She has some plans for next year already and is checking out her prizes as I write this post. Honestly I could not describe how it feels... It is I think a little better than winning yourself. I am a proud modeler dad of a young Gunpla modeler.

The photos below shows the short journey of my daughter as she builds her winning entry this year...
