Bandai Hobby MG Gundam Exia Gundam 00" (BAN159452)

Product Information

When posing this model getting it just right proved difficult as too many parts could move with little effort. Gundam modeling spread in the 1990s with North America and Europe being exposed to Gundam through television and manga. From now on, especially with plamo and toy reviews, I’ll be making broader strokes and avoid redundancies.

I believe most of the articulation gimmicks for MG kits are designed with the goal of the joy of construction rather than playability in mind, and that definitely shows in the MG Exia.

Real Grade Gundam (RG) is a line of Gundam Kits that was first introduced in 2010 as part of Bandai 30th Anniversary Commemoration Project. In many cases these limited run kits are never before seen variations of the mecha we know and love.

The GN Sword is the main weapon of the kit as it is in the anime, with a transformation from gun to sword. We don't want to say we're surprised to see another MGSD, but we are surprised to see that the second release has been announced so soon after the first! As such and to remain in line with Bandai's own policy we cannot offer a refund for box damage, only if the model kit itself is broken.

The 00 Raiser has previously been released in plamo form as a High Grade kit, a Perfect Grade kit, and even as a super-deformed kit. So tiny that it looks like it has trouble holding onto the mammoth handles of its various thick-handled swords.

The situation is dire and I need to breathe some life back into Hobby Hovel, and what better way to do it than a review of Gundam 00’s original poster boy – Gundam Exia? On the matter of GN Drives, Celestial Being only created five units as that was deemed to be the minimum needed for armed interventions. Like I said before, the HG Gundam Exia gets points for simplicity, and nowhere does that come out more strongly than in its limited amount of extras. Master Grade gundams are 1/100 scale kits designed and made to higher standards than High Grade (HG) kits but fall under Perfect Grade (PG) kits.The runners are separated by color as well as pre-painted parts allowing the model to look amazing simply by being put together! review I wrote while in China that is scheduled to go up in a couple of days consist of what I expect to be a very dry 2,000 word + rant that only the masochistic would read in its entirety. The damage the Exia sustains in the final battle at the end of the first season could possibly be a tribute to the RX-78-2 Gundam's Last Shooting, as they both lose their head and left arm in a battle against their rival.
