ORX-005 Gaplant TR-5 [Hrairoo]
This kit was acquired in December and I completed it a few days ago. This is only my second 1/144 kit, I'm more of a MG person but I couldn't resist this. All the protrusions and thrusters make this a very unique mobile suit. The fact that it has a mono-eye and a V-fin makes it even more unique. It is very impressive for a 1/144, the box is the same size as a 1/100 NG and the overall construction had a MG-ish feeling to it. This kit does require a bit a paint to make it look like the box art. Since it is a transformable mobile suit, its articulation suffers a bit, but it looks fine just standing still (like MG Unicorn). I never bothered with the transformation because it required part swapping and I didn't sharpen the transformed V-fins. What do you guys think?

Awesome sticker design, if I have time I might get some water slides.

the gaplant series is awesome and seeing your build, i want to get one now lol
Go get it, it's worth it.
helloooooo beautiful. If I manage to find one locally, I wouldn't have second thoughts of getting it.
I have never seen this kit locally, and I took me awhile to actually find one from a trusted source online.
Well if you're in America, finding one is particularly easy. They're usually more expensive than any HG in existence, even the Psycho and the NZ-666, though. About seventy-something.
wow, you must be getting totally ripped off. TR-5 Hrairoo should only run for about $25 at most. the other Gaplant kit (with the booster) will run around $30, nowhere near the price of the Psycho Gundam or Kshatriya.
i wouldnt mind seeing the gaplant as a MG
That might warrant a buy, thus spending more money and this is already a high priced 1/144 orz
yeah its already kinda marked up, but heck, for even a HG its stands tall. its as tall as the mg F91
Sleek and armed. I think I should add this to this year's "buy" list. :)
why is this not sell in my area WHY!!!!
there was 1 piece of this at Low yat ,2nd floor . Priced at RM 128. Still thinking to buy it or not
I saw this kit a while back...I am also a MG modeler...but this is a beauty man.
Transformed image please?
I already stated that I didn't bother with the transformation, sorry =[
everyone love TITANs..
My most favorite logo of all!
My favorite too =3
THat is one sick mobile suit. I might look around to see if I can find it.
So this is the Hrairoo... O: I haven't had much time to look at it a lot but this looks so bad ass XD It has that menacing but awesome look to it ;]
TR-5 Hrairoo isnt that bad, you should see TR-5 Fiver.
Nice kit! I read through the production story between Bandai and Dengeki Hobby back then. Dengeki Hobby team actually give a lot of advice to Bandai to ensure the kit is done up to modeller's demand (like reduce seamline, more parts seperation, better details)
I'm looking for Advanced of Z series too! Arghh I regret didn't buy Advance Hazel, Hazel, GM quel and Hrairoo back then :(
I never seen that MS before..what is that?
I love it.
