Bandai – MG Gundam Sword Impulse 1/100
Plastic Gunpla model kit. The box contains: details, stickers and assembly instructions.
Made in Japan.
Shinn Asuka’s Sword Impulse Gundam made its flashy introduction in the first episode of the “Mobile Suit Gundam Seed Destiny,” and now is offered as this much-anticipated Master Grade kit! Utilizing the same hyper-detailed and extremely well-articulated body frame from MG Force Impulse Gundam, the Mobile Suit comes packed with its Sword Silhouette to complete Sword Impulse Gundam.
Sharply moulded in colour, the transformable Impulse Gundam is formed by three main parts: Chest Flyer, Core Splendor, and Leg Flyer. Core Splendor’s cockpit can be opened to insert an in-scale sitting pilot figure. In addition, landing gear are provided for both the Chest Flyer and Leg Flyer as a original gimmick that’s never seen in the anime! The Sword Silhouette pack carried by the Silhouette Flyer can be attached to the back of the Mobile Suit to form Sword Impulse Gundam.
Its weapons include a pair of Anti-Ship Laser Swords that can be combined into a double-bladed sword, a Beam Rifle, two Assault Knives, and an openable shield. The wing section of the Sword Silhouette pack is detachable for use as a giant boomerang, plus it can also be turned into a pair of Flash Edge beam boomerangs. Unpainted 1/100-scale figures of Shinn Asuka and Lunamaria Hawke (both molded in white) are packed in the set along with foil stickers, dry-transfer decals, and marking stickers to add detail to the completed model. Note: The Action Base 1 shown in the photos is not included, sold separately.
MG - Master Grade
The next level is designated as Master Grade, production of which began in 1995. And it is only offered in 1:100 scale. This series is made of the highest quality plastic. These models have many more elements than the other series, which is why the model is more complicated and its assembly takes a long time. The MG series models have the greatest possible range of motion (e.g. movable fingers) compared to the lower series due to the internal skeleton. High quality translates into an amazing look and attention to detail, but nothing stands in the way of using paints to enhance the model.
