HGUC Gundam MKII + bonus + others

My first words of all, I would like to apologize for all of you since lack of post recently. Too much assignment on stack and Final Exams near.  Then as we know, Japan was 'attacked' with great quakes and tsunami. Really horrible and terrible but I only can pray for their wellness at here. Lets we get through to the Review of MKII + flying armor.And sorry for bad quality of pictures due to I take it without the aid of adequate of lights.

Let me Explain what are the Flying armor is. The flying armor is a machine where it was build based on Z Gundam wave rider (or simply WR ) and intended for atmospheric re-entry.

Gundam MKII doing atmospheric re-entry as seen in ZG (Zeta Gundam) episode 11.

Since the MKII and most other MS(excluding the MS that able to re-entry safely like rx-78-2 Gundam and Z Gundam) are unable to do self atmospheric re-entry, they need something like ballute system to perform it safely. And the MKII was given with Flying armor for the mission on earth. If NOT:

Hyaku Shiki falling to the earth as seen on ZG ep 35

This what will happen if no ballute system. this red was not the skin rashes but it was logically happen where when object from space falling from space to earth, causes the object to collide with air causing friction. The object may burn into crisp like small meteorite.

Photobucket
ZG episode 35 where Hyaku Shiki saved by Z Gundam.

Don't worry. The Quattro (aka Char Aznable) saved by Kamille.

Let's take a look to the Flying armor. This this was really huge, huge than the HGUC G-armor. For the pics, see here .



Photobucket
Pretty slim from the side view.


Photobucket
Over of it reveals thruster that later will I reveal.

Photobucket
There's a tab to open the hole for stand.

Photobucket
The stand. Not compatible to other kits :P .

Photobucket
The tab can be kept under the stand. Nice and neat :D.

Photobucket
On the stand, there are slots to adjust the steepness of stand.

Photobucket
non-leaned condition.

Photobucket
High-leaned condition.



Photobucket
You can place the shield at the flying armor.

Photobucket
Before put the MKII on the flying armor, bend the foot as shown on figure below.

Photobucket
Then place both feet at feet slot.

Photobucket
And place your hands at hand slot.

Photobucket
The Gundam MKII+Flying Armor completed.

Photobucket
Refer to Dalong. If you adjust the hand and foot into slot in correct manner, it will not fall down easily even on one hands handling rifle shown.

Photobucket
Some actions.



Photobucket
As seen in ZG episode 12.


Photobucket
Action spams with reversed leg postion. LOL.

Photobucket
Actually, I didn't make the review for MKII since it was exactly same with my HGUC MKII Titans. for the review, read here.






Photobucket
The view of head...pretty blur =_=||

Photobucket
Changes on the MKII titans and AEUG are noted by its colour scheme. For this version, the backpack's saber rack can be pulled on back due to the usage of mesh pipe at saber rack.


Photobucket
The colour scheme as I said before.....

Another action spams was happened at ZG ep 49...

In this episode, MKII was damaged due to the being attacked by Hamrabi. Later, the MKII reaired in rush and the left hand replaced with shield due to total damge. Then, it return to battlefield and fought with Palace Athene. Amazingly, The MKII doesn't blowed due to the Palace Athene's destruction. But later, its pilot, Emma Sheen KIA being hit by MS's fraction.

Photobucket
Actually MKII can do it too :D.


Photobucket
Actions.

Photobucket
Stabbing Palace Athene.

Photobucket
Action Spams continued.

There's a bonus instead.

In ZG episode 5, After all 3 Gundams being stolen by AEUG, Franklin Bidan(Kamille's father and Titans engineer) stole the AEUG's red Rick Dias(belongs to Quatrro aka Red Comet). The stolen Rick Dias was destroyed along with Fraklin Bidan KIA. After this part, This what I added by myself. The AEUG Enginner decided to use another MKII and painted it with red scheme for Quattro's use. But later, this project was abandoned due to introductionof Hyaku Shiki.

Photobucket
My other MKII(actually Extra finish version, the silver was faded due to the time) was painted in red scheme.

Photobucket
Action.

Photobucket
With Other MKIIs.

Well, I can conclude that This kits was really great since having Flying Armor with price of RM80++.Instead there a lot of panel lines on the flying armor that made it cool. Articulation are exactly same with MKII Titans except color scheme changes and mesh pipe usage for this version.

Other was....

Photobucket

Until next post....

  1. Somehow... I feel regreted in not getting this kit...

    As the foot can be bend and has lots of improvements over the normal MK-II.

  3. That's a great glide you have there. In fact, this is the first time I saw one like this. The Casval MK II is a good attempt and fairly unique too! Try taking the pics during the day, it will help.

  4. Nice collection of MK-IIs bro and a very detailed documentary on how the MK-II come and about. ^^

  5. @bd77: FYI, all HGUC MKII variations have such joint movement :)

    @evaritus: Ok, that's fine :D

    @Dennis: Yeah, this glide are pretty big than the HGUC G-Armor and I really surprised for that. Thanks for your advice on the picture taking. I really appreciate it.

    @sl619: Hehe, thank for that and the documentary shows that I really like the MKII.

    @ZD: You're right since the design are superb and it was a basis for the design of Z Gundam.
