Gundam Strike-E IWSP

May 21, 2008 By: marvin Category: Stray Thoughts, Model Kits, Gundam 13 Comments →

Strike-E IWSP
Have been building the Strike-E Gundam IWSP Lukas O’Donnel Custom for a while now, and only got to finish it 2 days ago. so I decided to take some shots of my newly finished Gundam last night. speaking of last night, hope everybody would induldge my little off topic comment, but I got invited to a dinner event at Shangrila Grand Tower last night, and won a lunch/dinner for two at their posh buffet restaurant and a free massage at luxurious Chi Spa Edsa Shangrila. Must be my lucky rabbit’s foot or most likely my lucky pregnant wife. LOL
Anyway back to the gundam, I was actually originally hesitant on getting a MG Strike. Especially one with an Integrated Weapons Striker Pack, since I already have the PG Strike and the Resin IWSP for PG Strike by G-System shop.
Strike Gundams
With no new MG release that made me go “oohhh, aaahh” during the time I wanted to build a kit, I decided to build the best looking gundam I could find.

Loved the fact that it had a lot of weapons and extra hands. felt like I was playing with a giantsized GFF than a MG kit. ^^ Strange thing though, the Strike-E doesn’t have a beam saber. the closest thing would be the beam boomerang. but then again with the number of weapons this gundam has, what would he need a beam saber for? ^^

Personally I find building MG gundams kits Theraputic, granted it eats up a lot of time and is a lot of work to paint. But building them somehow relieves stress. I even heard from a very reliable source that it stimulates the brain. ^^
Saber and Strike-E
I usually paint my gundams with flat colours, this time however I decided to do something new, and paint the Strike-E bright and shiny. thus the silver paint job. ^^ hope everyone likes it. ^^

the gundam is actually more possable without the IWSP restricting its joints.
anyway for more images, here is the image gallery.

Took some images of my revoltech Gurren Lagann, I remember complaining about the quality of these revoltech toys, however after seeing the Gurren Lagann as well as Revoltech’s Fraulein line, I have to say They are getting better on what they do.
