BANDAI Model Kit World Cup 2010 - Philippine Finals

edit: This is a re-post and this post was originally posted last September 9, 2010

Alas!!! The official news form Bankee ( Official Bandai distributor in the Philippines ) has released the flyers and rules for the BANDAI Model Kit World Cup ( BAKWC ) 2010 here in the Philippines. Practically the rules are the same with the previous BAKUCs but with minor alterations here and there.

Unfortunately I have neglected Gunpla for weeks now and I have been into Facebook games as of late. hehe... I would not be surprise if I won't make it this year. I do hope I get my Gunpla mojo back in time for this annual big stage competition.

I will be joining the Expert category for the first time this year, thus I am not that enthused at all at joining. I do wish that our Filipino modelers that are eligible to join the Junior and Open Category do well in the competition and I sincerely hope that the Philippines will again be represented well at Hong Kong Finals this year.

Afterall, our Junior category representative Eduardo Quirong is last year's BAKUC finals World Champion 2009!

Anyways here are the rules and the flyer of BAKWC 2010 Philippines as written at bankeepromos.com...
