1/100 Gundam Avalanche Exia Part 12 [Final]

Of the exact same family
As usual, the last posting for 1/100 Gundam Avalanche Exia opens up with even more action poses after the previous posting. ^^















Gundam Avalanche Exia's flight mode (?), adjusted according to its box art image.













Since it's the exact same kit as the original 1/100 Gundam Exia with add-on components, a comparison with that kit is well in place I believe. ^^


Front view.






Left side view




Rear view




Right side view



As mentioned before again and again, the sense of similarity between the two units is very apparent, regardless of all the add-ons on Gundam Avalanche Exia, at least from the front view that is. ^^ The head, chest and legs are pretty much all the same between the two kits, which probably projects an illusion that there's not that much difference between the two. ^^

It's a totally different story for the rear view though. ^^;

Overall, this is a really awesome 1/100 scale kit. ^^ From the part separation design shown in Part 1, it's very obvious that the designer never planned for this variation release, most probably because this MSV unit didn't even exist back then. Still, all the new parts integrate very well with the original 1/100 Gundam Exia to strike a nice balance between look and articulation on the completed Gundam Avalanche Exia. ^^ That obviously shows the brilliance behind the design of this kit. ^^

Then again, disregarding that feature, this is a very nice model kit nonetheless. ^^

A double GN Sword to finish this review series in perfect Gundam Exia's style. ^^
