Description

This is a posable, Master-Grade injection-plastic kit of an item from the Gundam universe.

Strike Gundam from Bandai's 2003 MG Aile Strike Gundam plastic model kit returns, this time minus its Aile Striker but with two new weapon attachments to complete its Striker Pack system: Launcher Striker and Sword Striker! This snap-fit kit, molded in color, allows you to build Kira Yamato's Strike Gundam, featuring a super-poseable inner body frame, and two Striker Packs to turn the Mobile Suit into either Launcher Strike Gundam or Sword Strike Gundam. A display stand is provided to assist with dynamic mid-air poses. Foil stickers, dry-transfer decals, and marking stickers are included. The Striker Packs are also compatible with MG Aile Strike Gundam.

Assembly Guide

Skill Level 2:

Easy to Complete

Skill Level 2 kits require basic plastic model assembly techniques, such as cutting parts from the runners, and cutting or sanding away the remains of the gates (the place where the part was connected to the runner). Some kits in this level also provide stickers for some markings. Most level 2 kits do not require cement or paint, but be sure to read any additional information provided to be sure. To nicely complete a level 2 kit, you will want to have a pair of plastic nippers for cutting parts from the runners, and a fine file, sandpaper or hobby knife for cleaning the gates. In some cases, a pair of tweezers makes applying stickers easier. Most adults with no prior modeling experience would have no trouble completing a kit of skill level 2. Parents would probably want to assist younger children with a kit of this level if they have never built one before.

No Cement Required

This item does not require the use of cement to complete. Some modelers prefer to use cement on snap-together kits in order to fix them into a particular pose, or make a joint more secure. However, this is not required to complete these kits.

No Painting Required

This item does not require painting.

Either the item is completely pre-painted, such as an action figure or other completed figure, or it is molded in the colors of the finished item so that it appears natural after you have assembled it. Note that kits which are molded in their final colors will always look better when painted, even if this is not required. At the very least, a light coat of flat clear spray will make a science-fiction kit look much less toy-like after assembly. The same goes for some action figures as well.
