How can one get his/er site listed on Yahoo as "web site" (there are 15
Gundam "sites") instead of a "web page" (there are 7291 Gundam "pages")
anyway? I kind of like that NA is the only Gundam site that doesn't have
the word Gundam in the name, but when it comes to search engines it really
hurts. I don't even know is NA if listed within those 7200+ matches (gave
up looking after 200).

Hopefully when the horde (^_^) of fans finish the Wing models they will
will be addicted to models of other Gundam series. If America discovers
MG models, then 0079 TV series will be broadcasted for sure.
I think 5 ep per week is the smart move. Gundam takes some concentration
to understand. If it's popular enough, it can go into perpetual
syndication.
Fed mentioned about 1/60 Wing Gundam kit. I already have a few people
asking for it, cuz there's a review on the site.

Such is the lot of American model fans. For American scifi or military
models, you get crappy kits (ERTL/MPC, Revell), for Japanese anime models,
you get crappy distributors.
