1:144 Ex-S Gundam, 1988 edition

This is a old model of Ex-S Gundam by Bandai I bought 22 years ago. Back then, 'System Injection' is the state of the art molding technology :D


However, back then, Bandai didn't care much about the accuracy of the model (to the original design).. and this is what you get:While it looks ok-ish to a typical viewer, this is actually quite different to the original design by Katoki Hajime in Gundam Sentinel. Over the years, he made several changes to the design of the S-Gundam for HGUC and MG version of the robot. The new design looks quite nice, however I still like the original design much better.

So, here I attempt to recreate the original design with a bit of new flavor I added :P


Scratch build the smart gun supporting arm, you can see it hanging next to the leg.

More coming :)
