Product Description
Bandai offers up a limited initial production run of this much-anticipated MG Gundam Exia Ignition Mode snap-fit plastic kit at a special price of just 5,000 yen (original retail price set at 6,500 yen)! Not only can Gundam Exia be built with a light-up GN Drive (two LED units are included to light up its chest and back) with this Ignition Mode release, but also, it comes with "repair parts" to build the battle-damaged Mobile Suit as seen in the first episode of the second season of "Gundam 00"! Shiny silver-coating blades for its GN Long Blade, GN Short Blade, and GN Sword are included, too!
The popular machine comes sharply molded in color and incredibly flexible upon completion. It can hold various dynamic action poses as well as signature stances seen in the show, and detail is spot-on with intricate mechanisms realized on its highly-articulated inner frame as we've come to expect from an MG release. Clear green lenses are provided for its chest, and sides of its head, elbows, and knees, while all cord sections on the body utilizes hologram parts and clear parts so you can view its mechanisms underneath. "Repair parts" consisting of a battle-damaged head and GN Sword's blade, and cloak are packed in this set for building a partially repaired Gundam Exia.
Its complete Seven Sword System are provided that consists of a GN Long Blade, a GN Short Blade, two GN Beam Daggers, two GN Beam Sabers, a GN Sword that can switch between rifle mode and gun mode, plus a GN Shield with sides that can slide out. A dedicated clear base is also included for displaying the detachable GN Drive, and a red cover part can be attached to the back of Gundam Exia in place of the GN Drive. Two same-scale figures (molded in white) of Setsuna in standing and sitting poses are packed in the set along with foil stickers, dry transfer stickers, and MG Gundam Exia original marking stickers for detail. Four button batteries are required, not included.

 Great fun!!! July 18, 2010

My first 1/100 MG 00 Gundam kit. Very satisfied with this kit. No paint, but can be if you want. Some unstableness when connecting some parts, but for the most parts fit snugly. Needs batteries for the GN Drive. You will need to get 4 LR41 batteries. (Get them here on Amazon. Cheaper than going to a battery store.) This is a great MG kit for fans of the Anime. I plan on getting more. Enjoy!

With Gundam 00's rising popularity, it's only fitting that the signature unit be given honors as a Master Grade kit. This particular version of Exia comes with two options: Battle-damaged as seen in the start of the second season, or fully repaired as seen throughout the show (the regular kit only having the latter). And, as expected of a Master Grade kit, no expense is spared for the sake of detail, as the kit includes a new holographic part for the GN Particle power lines, an LED light for the GN Drive itself, two sets of decals for either damaged or complete Exia, and transparent plastic for the GN Condensers on the arms, legs, and head. My only gripe with the kit itself is that it doesn't live up to the quality of Master Grade joint movement. The legs have the usual range-of-motion, but because of the design, it cannot kneel because the leg from the knee to the ankle is almost twice as long. Additionally, the arms cannot fully bend as there's a detail part at the upper part of the elbow that blocks it from completion. And to make matters worse, the stabilizing attachment for the GN Sword/Rifle has a nasty habit of not wanting to stay, which can be a real headache when added to fact that the piece itself isn't light and Exia's hands can easily lose its grip on it.
In summary, Bandai continues its excellence with the Master Grade line, but there are a few flaws in Exia that leave it lacking and far from par.
