Perfect Grade Strike Gundam WIP Part 01 [480p]

There are going to be a lot of WIP videos and pictures on this kit as it is a perfect grade. I know I'm bad- I should be working on Wing Zero proto but this PG has been screaming my name. I have to sand proto with 600 grit yet and then clean the parts. After that things need mounting and we can set up the paint facilities. The Strike Gundam is deceptively simple in its PG form, but the details are everywhere. In fact I would say I don't mind the streamlined build compared to the PG MK-II, and this kit will shine (ok, it will be dull in color) with all of the details painted on the inner frame.

Perfect Grade 1/60 GATX-105 Strike Gundam- Head Unit

Straight assembly- no trimming or painting.

I asked for this kit for Jul, not expecting to get it after a rather long list of three Real Grades and a Master Grade. Lo and behold, I got it. The more I looked at the kit, the more I wanted to not work on my PG MK-II. I think I will do this PG first and then go back to the MK-II. I went ahead and built the head, which is deceptively simple- but the detail is incredible.

There are some parts I am happy with on the head and some I am not so happy with- in particular the brow piece above the eyes could have fit better for each side. The V-fin is not filled in in the back. That will have to be taken care of. I can't wait to see it when the eyes light up. This kit looks amazing in photos, but looks really good out of the box in real life. I am excited to work on this kit after Wing Zero Proto.
