MG OO Gundam Seven Sword /G - WIP 5

Gundam Age 1 Normal early production?

After completing the legs and waist, it is only logical to do the chest next.

The first part the manual instruction is to fix is the lower section of the cockpit. After assembling it, the particular part reminds me of the 'spoiler' on the back of Gundam Age-1 Normal.

Kick-starting

Kick-starting this build since it halted in May because of the astray group build. Since I have finished my entry it is time to get back to work on completing my first Master Grade kit. Starting off with the kick-start project is the left leg (no pun intended).

Same treatment of gold and silver was given to the piston.

Loot #5

Just got these today. First loot of the month. I got the MG Epyon, RG Expo Edition Freedom, a micro USB cable for my phone and 2 bottles of paint (tan and flesh). The paints are for the pilots of the MG gundams. This will be my first time using paints and if anyone has any useful tips do feel free to leave a comment.

HG Red Frame (Flight Unit) - WIP 15 (Final)

This is the final part for the Red Frame (Flight Unit). In this post, the entire arsenal of the RF will be shown and how he will carry it into battle. First off as mentioned in the previous post, I shall give the Red Frame a new name. Been thinking of a name for a long time and I feel this name is appropriate. I present to you the Shinobi Astray Red Frame Seven Swords (Flight Unit).

Why the name Seven Swords? If you remember correctly, there are a total of seven swords built in this entire process. First is the Gerbera Straight, next would be the 2 Caletvwichs and followed by 2 katanas from the Builders Part. If you are counting, the total comes up to 5. Where are the other 2 swords? They are the 2 beam sabers on the back of the kit. Hence the name Seven Swords.

HG Red Frame (Flight Unit) - WIP 14

In the previous post, we saw how the flight unit was attached to the RF with a few action poses and all the standard weapons were shown, I will show the RF with the Caletvwich as discussed in Part 10 and the additional 2 katanas which was reviewed in Part 11.

Before we go into that, let's change the RF's front section of the helmet first. All we need to do is to replace the existing V fin and front helmet with the ones supplied with the Caletvwich kit.

The parts to be replaced

The assembly is a simple process. Attach the front helmet on, attach the pink V fin and finally the red V fin on top of the pink. Once completed, the RF should look like this:

Loot #4

Latest loot of the month. It is the Limited Edition Nickelodeon TMNT figures. From what I know the Shredder is from SDCC 2013. Not quite sure if the Night Shadow Leonardo is also a SDCC 2012 version or just a re-release. I do hope they will release another turtle this year during the SDCC.
