Bandai - HGUC 1/144 Gundam Unicorn Phenex ver. GFT [Clear]

Ok, so I won't post any-phenex-related info since this would be anotehr time that I would be posting about Unicorns. In fact I'am getting tired of building the same mold for seven times now - anyway... SO, together with the Lame Gold Phenex this is another variant of Phenex - it's build in clear plastics with tiny glitters inside. Not much of a change then.

How did I spot this anyway? Actually I had no idea that this variant even exists but I notice that it has a different GFT box. Usually GFT boxes have red lines on the side but instead this one has yellow.

When I first saw the built in other blogs, it really did look ugly and crappy. The combiantion was awful but after finishing I was actually contented - not to mention I had a hard time asking the seller to sell it to me since it was reserved to someone else.

Comparing to the Lame Gold Phenex, they are almost the same - in terms of mold and equips. The package doesn't have the Phamplet though.

If you do feel dissatisfied, you can always do this - cross-building.

[Bandai] HGUC 1/144 RX-0 Gundam Unicorn Destroy Mode - 7-11 Variant

7-Eleven and Bandai Strikes again, and this time they released one of the favorite Gunpla this genre has - Unicorn. Well, what does it feel so special? You see, one of the unique part of Unicorn was it's Pyscoframe - a lighter green pyschoframe. Just a quick review, Unicorns Psycoframe was made of clear coloured plastics so altering it might be quite a challenge. I'm not saying it's impossible, but it would take a lot of time and resources just to change.

Box - The box covered in white, marked with 7-Eleven logo and a light-green-coloured Pyscoframe Unicorn can be seen.

Armed with decals, a great combination of colour indeed. Well, the sad part was it's the same Unicorn all over again. One shield, one rifle and still no beam saber. The only thing I really dislike about it because aside from the unique psycho frame build it lacks weaponry and gimmicks - well just don't compare it to MG Unicorn which was transformable from normal to destroy.

Articulation will always be the same, and the only thing that will caught your eye is it's strong combination of green. And yes, if it ever crossed your mind it not Gundam Unicorn version Wasabi.

RX078-2 Shot.

The V-Fin has a different shade of green.

7-11 and Unicorn Decals.

Unicorn Shield - some people intend to repalce FA Unicorns Psychoframe with this, why? Because yes, it was lighter and has a much more stronger Greenish appeal rather than the Original Green Psycho frame. although Transforming FA wouldn't be complete since this one has only one shield and FA has 3 and the funnels has a different mold. p.s. Bandai decal was not in the original design, I well - just thought it fits there.

The feet and booster has a metallic greenish scheme to, which actually sucks because cutting it from the runners actually destroys it's quality and creates nub marks which was so hard to remove.

[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"

See Full Post

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. :)

Gundam Unicorn Destroy Mode - Left, Gundam Unicorn Destroy Phene - Middle, Gundam Unicorn Destroy Mode Green psycho Frame - Right One of my Hauls last Christmas Toycon, I haven't expected to acquire this since it was GFT and I thought it would be harder to find. But Luck came in to me again, and thanks to that! I found a store with one alst stock of the Kit! Not much of a review though, since just like the Normal Unicorns, it only has a rifle, no beam sabers. The exception of the 2 Armed De and the Blue Psycho Frame.

Small booklet where the story of the Phenex was told, and so as what they told me. Not really sure because it's in japanese.

So, as I said before it's the same kit just like the other Unicorns except for the Gold colored scheme, Blue Psycho Frame and2 Armed De. Oh, before I forgot the V-Fin is diferent. Too bad, I can no longer acquire the ANA version of Unicorn, It would be so awesome!
