[Bandai] HGUC 1/144 RX-0 Gundam Unicorn (Destroy Mode) Deactive Clear Version

RX-0 Gundam Unicorn Deactive Clear [Destroy Mode] that was sold in Japan after Gundam UC Episode 7 Screening. But I guess this was sold to other places as well, just like here. This was sold as pre-ordered product during the GMKC2014 and UC Ep. 7 Screening by the event handlers. Took about 2 weeks, together with the other Exclusives but it was worth the wait. But first let's summarize the kit in one line
"Gundam-Unicorn-Clear-Bodied-Platinum-Psycho-Framed-Destroy-Mode"

The Box art looks cool enough to consider it as an exclusive - I don't like calling it Limited since they will still sell it or change its box anyway to diminish stocks. If my memory serves me well, this kind of box art format was already used in older kits that I saw over a local store and it cost highly valuable.

The built was reversed, instead of making the Psycho Frame clear - it was coloured in platinum and the body was made out of clear variations. It did serve a great effect and I like it better than before just how I wish I had the money to buy more at once since it will be harder to find then kit-bash it with other Unicorn variants

Well, as always the harder part in building clear kits was removing the nub marks since you can't hide it with paint not unless you're using clear paints as well.

And, despite it being an awesome variant - I hate to see that it doesn't have any beam saber with it just like the regular Unicorn Destroy variants.

There you go - Now the next mission is finding the 7-11 version and ANA. Not sure if I would be able to get my hands on them but it's worth a try. :)

MG 1/100 GAT-X207 Blitz Gundam [Colloid Version]

So, as a souvenir from the previous GMKC14 my friend bought this Limited Edition Gundam Blitz Colloid since it was on sale, I didn't manage to acquire one but I have an awesome friend and he let me took a photo of his Blitz. I forgot to shoot the Box and put the wire on and has no decals but I manage to see how it really was and how much enjoyment you can have from it. And as for those people who doesn't know, because I read a comment from a Gundam group that he thought this was just a colourless version of the kit - well this is Blitz when he's on mirage/invisible mode or whatever you want to call it.

So, aside from it being so cool - there wasn't even much to see, literally. Correct me if I'am wrong but I think there were some decals in the box. The same as the regular MG blitz and same details.

The hardest part was actually building the kit, not because it was colourless - but it's because nub marks were harder to remove. Piling is the least of your idea since it might leave scratches and top coating is so optional. Example, top coating this kind of plastic might lead to frosted effect and you might not like it (but as for me I do like frosted effects).

And for added effects, you might want to get youself some lightning base so the light might travel through inside Blitz body.

And now what...

...well it looks so cool anyway. :)

MBF-02 Strike Rouge

Bandai - RG 1/144 - Expo Limited

The MBF-02 Strike Rouge is a mobile suit appearing in Mobile Suit Gundam SEED and its sequel Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Destiny. Its primary pilot is the Princess of Orb Cagalli Yula Athha. The word Rouge is the French word for the color red.

Note: A separate kit with IWSP was released and so as a conversion kit. Im not sure though if it was for Strike since, yeah Strike Rouge is only a Red Strike.

Note: Although I finished the story of Gundam Seed and Gundam Seed Destiny, I never got hooked up to it.
