Yeah. Normally I just build up the whole thing per section but this time it started off with the frame first.

After a delay...

Setsuna F. Seiei. Perfect Grade Exia Launching!

Final got it finished. I was aiming for one of the action poses form the final fight against O Gundam where Setsuna drew out a beamsaber. It's not 100% but I think I got somewhat close given what I have to work with I may make adjustments this weekend.

As you can see, the action base has storage for the spare hands and armament you aren't using. I could have fully equipped Exia with the full armament but I figured I could get a better pose with just the GN Sword and a beamsaber. The base also includes an appendage to attach the GN Drive to if you want to go with a generic standing pose.

Shoulder joints extend to allow better arm potability and unlike it's Master Grade coutnerparnt, youw ant have any parts that pop off.

You get several sets of hands. The standard build joint to joint hands found in most Perfect grades, clenched, and 2 sets of weapon holding hands.

The GN Sword does weigh the right shoulder down but does not cause the torso to lean.

Also the right toe armor is a little loose so take care with that unless you want to seal it in place with crazy glue.

He looks top notch! A very good looking suit of ever there was one. You got anything for your next project?

[Roadbuster]

Nothing planned ATM. I've done a MG Red Frame, MG Sandrock, MG Dynames, and PG Exia within six months. I'll probably take a short hiatus since I have a few other in home projects to take care of. Waiting for Master Grade Kyrios though.

I'm waiting on Kyrios too. I have to go back and get Dynames since these two were the only 1/100 no grade kits I got from Gundam 00.

Because MG Wing Zero custom and Proto-Zero were not enough.

Quite a few aren't happy with this announcement. I can't blame them honestly. I see this being closer to the Glory to the Losers version that has a Neo-Bird Mode. This gundam has to set itself apart drastically from it's predecessor or it's not going to sell decent outside Japan and die hards. A lot of people were clamoring for the ver Ka to be G-Self or out of 0083, which does need new versions of the three Gundams.

[ZeroWolf]

I'm not thrilled by it myself, I think there was better choices. Would love a GPoA2

[chuckdawg1999]

We need a Gundam series called G-Unit and featuring fifty cent.

[ZeroWolf]

Wasn't there a spin off Manga from Gundam Wing called G-Unit? I remember the Gundam Hydra design came from that series

[wilcosu35]

I'm fine with new MG's of the EW Wing and Zero, as long as they're able to finally hold their guns in their hands.

I do think, however, that the TV versions could use some more MG love

[ZeroWolf]

From what I've seen, a lot of fans are still in love with the EW versions, so the TV versions are mostly forgotten.

[Roadbuster]

I will admit that the Anime Wing Gundam blew out the Ver Ka version easily. Anime Wing could hold its gun.

[chuckdawg1999]

Anybody get MG Kyrios? I got the email on Wednesday that Amazon had no idea when they were getting it.

[wilcosu35]

I prefer the TV designs actually, the EW are just so over-the-top. Angel wings and impractically large rifles, massive devil wings, ridiculous firepower but no knife, Enormous heat shotels but no ranged stuff, unlimited extendable (and unwieldy when retracted) dragon fangs without the flamethrowers.

[ZeroWolf]

To be fair Sandrock only got a long ranged weapon in the end part of the series (his kai version).

[Roadbuster]

Proof my Hobbytown USA is awesome.

[ZeroWolf]

Nice! You'll have to share pictures of that bad boy when he's finished!

[chuckdawg1999]

Got my Kyrios a week or so ago but today I got the beyond global RX-78-02. I'm supposed to get a great 30 minute missions Rabiot with armor and weapons today as well.

[ZeroWolf]

What's the 30 minutes mission guys like?

[chuckdawg1999]

What's the 30 minutes mission guys like?

They're good hits that are really simple to build. They're made better by adding an accessory kit or two, or three, or four; I may have a problem.

Ah so that's the catch then I've been looking at them az I like the designs and saw the add on kits.

A $10 kit very quickly can turn into $25-30.

After a slight delay... Master Grade Kyrios.

My apologies for the lighting and my dusty desk. This was about the only place I could get it to stand and remaij stable. The floor wasn't doing it.

[ZeroWolf]

Very nice my friend!

[Roadbuster]

Dangit Bandai! You're supposed to make this easy so I pass on a Gundam that I have 3 different versions of already that nobody asked for! You had to throw in the Neo-Bird mode and shield!!!
