BANDAIHobby HG 1/144 RGM-79SC GM Sniper Custom (Gundam The Origin)

Awesome build, and it's really the only thing that needs to be said. However, I just want to say that I thought it was cool that it incorporates features from several other models. Little to no glue is required, but I did use some on the forearm mount and the thruster jets. Some of the stickers are kind of a pain, and can be easily replaces with the quick paints.

First off, if you don't want to pay the P-Bandai markup you can purchase the HG GM Guard Custom or the HG GM Intercept. All of these kits utilize many of the same parts with small variations.The GM Sniper includes new or modified parts for the head, legs backpack, and weapons. The holdable weapons include a beam spray gun, a beam sniper rifle and a beam saber that can be mounted onto the forearm. Another unique feature of this kit is that the beam spray gun can be mounted to the lower part of the left leg, and the beam sniper rifle can be collapsed and stored on the back skirt.Overall this was a really nice build!The model is very posable, and it has a great dynamic presence. Like the other HG GM Origin models it has an excellent level of molded detail throughout the design.Disclaimer: The model shown in my photo is fully painted and detailed. It won't look like this out of the box.
