BANDAI Mobile Suit Gundam MS-07B-3 GOUF CUSTOM

This kit is very well designed and quite sturdy compared to other HGUC kits. It looks great and has some really nice looking accessories. I would definitely recommend it, as it's probably the coolest Zeon grunt suit available. Pros. It looks amazing out of the box. The nubs aren't in awful places, and are easily sanded down. It comes with great accessories (shield/sword scabbard, 3 barrel gun, Gatling gun, heat rod) and a can carry each of them on it's body at the same time. The heat rod is an actual metallic wire under a layer of plastic, and is highly possible. No painting required to achieve the look of the suit in the OVA. Only two stickers and both look great. The mono-eye can rotate to replicate the model looking at different directions. The joints are very strong and easily hold up the heavy accessories. Very easy to put together (I built mine in the time it took to wash and dry a small load of laundry). Cons. The articulation isn't very good at all (granted you can still make a ton of cool poses with it). There are two nubs on the leg that even after being cut down and sanded will still need a light blue cover of paint to conceal (neither are all that bad). In order for the shoulders to look their best you'll need to do some lining around the spikes at their base (not hard to do at all). If you like Zeon suits, particularly the Gouf, you should definitely buy this kit. You'll love it!

Where to start. The build is a lot of fun. I got to see elements hidden in spots that we're not clear from high res photos and it gave the kit some real suprise. The left arm is full of detail and variations including the Gatling gun, shield, sword , and blaster. The right arm has the port for the grappling hook which looks great. I found the kit was full of poseibility and mostly was completely stable. The least stability can come from the shield arm, which the weight can cause the lower part of the arm to detatch from the upper arm. I use the included stickers and am not a big fan of painting, but I liked the limited use of stickers here in order to provide the scope and cylon eye. I loved the way the tubes are designed. Offered a great deal of detail and being separate parts will allow painters great flexibility. I intend to return to this kit one day when I start kit-bashing for my own ideas.

This machine was a joy to build and has some really nice posing potential. The accessories are awesome, and the colors look really nice. Pros: Foil stickers look way better than the matte ones. Accessories: Metal wire head rod, heat saber that fits in its shield, triple machine gun, and gatling shield. Joint strength. I'm really impressed that it can hold the gatling shield directly perpendicular to the mobile suit itself. It has notches in the shoulder to help accomplish this. Keep this in mind. Attention to little details, including the clear plastic for the orange windows of the cockpit. Cons: Blue elbow joints don't look the best in my opinion. No waist or skirt articulation. A peg underneath the skirt helps mitigate the horizontal restrictions, but the forward and back movement of the legs are reduced. The strength of the arms are a real selling point for this kit. It's nice to see this thing able to lift and carry all its accessories without consequence. It holds its poses really well, and is very photogenic in how it does so. Definitely recommend.

Amazing model. Perfect for panel lining. Great color scheme. Terrible shoulder joints, the worst i have seen so far. Other than that, this is my 2nd favorite HG.

This gouf is great on its own but with a little bit of paint it becomes awesome!! Be careful with the ankle joints though I snapped one with minimal force and that's only the second piece I've ever had break on well over a dozen sets I've built

I had this MS years ago and really liked it. Couldn't find it locally so I decided to buy it online. For a HG model this kit looks really good. It has the shied, sword, gatlin gun, sword, electric probe and forearm cannon. I didn't paint it back then but I do plan to add some more color and weathering to this kit. Overall I loved this kit. The only minor gripe is that the gatling un is so long it cases some poseability issues, such as the suit being to heavy on one side that it tips over easily. Without a base, it is pretty hard have the gun in an aimed pose. Overall this is a great kit that looks badass and has plenty of accessories and good amount of detail.

Speaking as a person who had built six other Gundam kits when I built this one, I must say that this is probably the best HGUC kit I've ever built. It's simple, holds it's shape despite having a severe amount of weight on one side, it's colorful and only asks that you apply two decals (Both of which are very easy to apply.) This suit is incredibly sturdy, while you can't smack it with your fist and expect it to stay upright, it'll certainly hold it's own against wind and strong fans. This kit is simple but it's far from the easiest kit, the Head can get you tricked up but if you take your time with this suit then you are in for a treat upon completion. Highly recommended and well worth the investment.

If your questioning getting this because there is no picture of the actually model do not fret. I rolled the dice for you and what I got was much better then I expected. This thing is Awesome!!! You can fit the sword,mortar gun and Gatling gun shield on one arm , and the best part is his hand is still possible without the arm drooping a great fix from the past model. Also the grappling arm works great and stays in place. To top it all off it is a moderately easy build , and would be great for a first time gunpla build.

Il se trouve que pour un HG, le model est realtivement bien detaillé. Je suis content de ce produit.

ガトリングシールドも保持できる間接の強さ、素敵です！ 俊敏なマッチョ感！たまりませぬ🖤 ヒートサーベルが質素な感じ、迫力感・重厚感が少なく感じました。 結論、良作でございます！！

Llegó en tiempo y bien cuidado, ya estoy armándolo si te gusta la serie original es indispensable tener este zaku y el gundam rx78 -2

The Gundam Gouf unit originally piloted by Ramba Ral is a mobile suit that can be used for ranged combat or close quarters going toe to toe with the Earth Federation and is identified by the colour blue with spiked shoulder pads. I can say of all the model kits this one is such a joy to build i enjoyed every minute working on such a great kit, this kit will be ideal for both beginners and pros alike. As with all the Gunpla they come with detailed instructions showing what goes where and how to attach pieces together although you will need some tools such as sanding paper (1000 or more grit), a hobby knife, some side cutters and as an optional extra Gundam panel liners and paint markers. I have built a few Gunpla's and this was a real treat i cannot express what a great model this is, in fact most of the Gundam series have amazing quality models but this seemed to be a better and more fun build to tackle. The price as always is very reasonable so if you are looking to build a new model give this one a try, as usual i will post my photos of my work so you can get a feel for the finished product.

Classico Bandai Model Kit. Da costruire senza l'utilizzo di colla, incastrando a dovere i pezzi tra di loro, seguendo lo schema di montaggio. I pezzi sono di plastica colorata. Contiene adesivi per dare al modellino un maggior senso di realtà. Per il montaggio, suggerisco di munirsi di piccole tronchesi da modellismo, carta vetrata molto fine, bisturi da modellismo e trapanino da modellismo. Non adatto a bambini, secondo me, e per i ragazzi, si consiglia la supervisione di un adulto, in quando con gli strumenti ci si può tagliare, almeno fino a quando non si è certi che il "modellista in erba" non abbia acquisito le giuste tecniche di lavoro. Ottimo passatempo. E' ovviamente possibile dipingere il modello, ma consiglio di farlo solo ai modellisti esperti. D'altra parte, anche senza dipingerlo, ha lo stesso il suo fascino.
