Guide to the MG Strike Freedom Gundam Extra Finish
The Bandai MG Strike Freedom Gundam 1/100 scale kit returns with an eye-catching extra finish metallic coating that lifts any shelf display. First released in 2006, this Master Grade rebuild blends scale accuracy with robust engineering to deliver a satisfying build for experienced modellers and display-focused collectors.
Loadout and Pose Options
This MG release stays true to the Strike Freedom's famed armament, including high energy beam rifles, Super Lacerta beam sabers, a beam shield, and Xiphias rail guns for faithful loadouts. The standout is the Super Dragoon wing system, which extends and can detach for varied arrangements, though note Dragoon effect parts are not supplied. Those jointed wings broaden the range of dramatic poses you can achieve.
Detailing and Movement
Bandai's engineering shows in the precise panel lines and secure joint design of this Master Grade kit. The metallic extra finish enhances surface depth and highlights sculpted detail. Articulation has been tuned for both strong static stances and action poses, with careful balance between range of motion and model stability.
Included Extras and Finish Options
The kit includes small in-scale figures of Kira Yamato seated and standing, plus Lacus Clyne, which help stage scenes. A mix of stickers and dry-transfer decals allows tailored markings, and the supplied display base supports airborne or mid-action displays. Builders can further refine the look with paint and weathering if desired.
