Just had our Bakuc a few days ago in Sydney. It was a fantastic experience and awesome event. I feel I went quite well with the ZZ Gundam. Ghost of Zeon came second with his MG Zaku...

If you look at the caption on the picture of the first place entry in the photo gallery you will actually see that I name and congratulate the winner. The main picture in the gallery is the first place winner also.

Quote from: Ghost of Zeon Photo Gallery
1st Place entry in the Expert Open Class - well done Cheuk Lun Yau! Have fun in Hong Kong!

Once the official results are released, I will be updating the report but in the meantime I have pictures of the winning entries in the gallery in order of first to 3rd in the open and junior categories.
