This model is kind of special for me. I spent several months in Korea last year on an extended work trip. I got to go to a Gundam Base for the first time and knew that I had to get at least one Gundam Base limited model as a souvenir. Among all of the MG size and translucent models I found the one Gundam that I enjoy with my HG/RG mono-eye loving heart. Of course, they released the GBK-20 two months after I got back to the states, but alas.

The model build was pretty standard fare for an HG. The Caletvwlches were more involved than I expected, each of the 3 being a whole sprue worth of parts unto itself. Getting the dual-handed hold on the dual blade S mode was difficult enough that I almost gave up.

    Holy…

    I’m not much of an Astray fan, but between the over the top design and your detail work, that’s really stunning. Freakin sweet!

      Thank you!

      It’s funny that you’re not a big Astray fan, when it’s one of the few Gundams I actually like. It’s probably the sword, tbh.
