Le Creuset's Gunpla: HG GN-001 Gundam Exia

Actually, I have this Exia for many years now. It's a Trans-Am Exia, except it's not the gloss injection version (which is pink). Personally I think the pink one is...wrong...because it looks weird, and the gloss injection might not look as good ( I'll show some related kits in the future ), is it possible to paint up something like that?

Anyway, I'm not about to further discuss that matter.

So, this is suppose to be Exia basic. Even though it's not the gloss injection type, some parts of it's body represents the Trans-Am mode (just a little), example the red parts on its legs and the red rubber connecting it's shoulder and arm. Of course, the stickers (haha...) on it's core and other parts of the body.

I once read a post about comparison of MG and HG Exia, well, about the matter of its pose-abilities. HG Exia's hip is the part that makes it able to do many poses because the joints are not fixed (like most of SEED series).

Also, it's leg is separated to 2 parts, the lower section of the leg can still be bent after the knee. So kneeling is not a big problem for Exia.

Between Exia's shoulder and chest piece there's a separated section, which makes it's arms able to move to more extreme angles.

Exia actually already contain Seven Sword System, as many didn't know (such as me till later on), sadly, I must have miss checked the remaining pieces on the runners, which is long gone and lost, and one of the beam saber's connector is broken. Well, just to show that melee weapon counts is 7.

GN Sword

Luckily I didn't play a lot with it, so the connection between the the GN sword and the housing is still holding up nicely !

Beam Sabers

Correct count of beam sabers should be 4 overall.

GN Sabers

Two sabers are mounted on both of the extension on it's hip (added). One is long another is short.

closer view : actually there is something written on its core, but its in dark red so it's very hard to see. (will be shown later)

The HG Exia has a very small body (very). Somehow the plastic property is different from others like SEED series, you will understand if you touch one.

Oh, there's more.

GN Arms Type-E

When Exia is about to fight a fleet of enemy.

Docking mode ready

Exia + Type-E - Yes, this is originally where my Exia came from, it was quite cheap long ago, the price now might be higher maybe because it's harder to obtain.
