MG Aile Strike Review
Finally completed my MG Aile Strike. Sadly i had a problem with the decals as it kept rubbing to my fingertips and now i'm in great need of decals for Aile Strike since i only got to use 5 pcs of it on the gunpla. Anyways what can i say about this gunpla. This post will be a review for the MG Aile Strike.
Let's start with building it. Apparently it's not that hard and not confusing but the problem is that some needs a slight hammering since they won't fit and the construction manual for it is a bit messy.
Moving on, articulations for MG Aile Strike is good but not as good as the gunpla MG of Exia. Exia has more articulations and much more easier to maneuver compared to Aile Strike. Details however is nicely done given the fact that Aile Strike is mainly just a white and blue gundam.
A plus point is given to Aile however for it's stand. The stand which comes free in the box is a replica of the launch pad of Archangel in the series. Not to mention, the stand itself is pretty big and unique. Although i just wish that the stand also has other articulations aside from going up and down.
For the verdict, im giving MG Aile Strike a 4/5 Stars given it's simplicity and uniqueness in the MG line. I'm planning to continue with the MG from now on and i am aiming for the Exia Ignition Mode. Hope i can get one before the price starts to kick up.
Nice build dude! A very clean one. Maybe you can go to Lils or toy kingdom and look for the water slide decals for this.:D
I did put decals on my older gunpla and recently i for go their decal because i try to follow the show that they have no decal or design on them.
how come it sticks to your fingers ? use tweezers and cotton bud to control the transfer over.
I don't have tweezers XD
I'll be purchasing a Tamiya customization & tinkering kit again. It may cost me a bit but it's all for gunpla building.
snitch your sis or mom or aunt's eye brow tweezers then FOC and they do so much more.
MG Strike is a good build for beginners. My first MG was the MG Strike IWSP too. Exia is a good buy too, i've written 2 reviews for it here go check them out if you wish to learn more bout it.
Omedetto on your first Master Grade Gunpla. ^^
I love the strike gundam ^^. IMO its actually better than MG Exia in terms of stability. But that big base is really nice!
personally I didn't like the MG model of strike, something about its face is off, maybe it's the two lines on the mouth or that the V comes down too much into the eye part. Perhaps that's because I'm comparing it with the PG strike too much.
Nice assemble eh...w/out using a twizer it's bit hard.
lol, when you mentioned how you needed to slightly hammer parts together, that was kind of alarming. I fully painted all the pieces before assembly, and I'm pretty sure I didn't use any such force haha =P
And using toothpicks can help you apply decals as well, it allows for better precision compared to tweezers in my opinion.
