Bandai 1/100 MGEX Strike Freedom Gundam

$279.99 AUD
The MGEX Strike Freedom Gundam stands as a magnum opus in the world of Gunpla. Crafted by Bandai's prestigious MGEX line, this model seamlessly melds artistry and engineering, flaunting a metallic design that's second to none. With a trifecta of special treatments, dual metallic moulds, and state-of-the-art etching stickers, the kit radiates a lifelike shimmer, reflecting the rich intricacies of its internal frame. But it's more than a visual masterpiece. Integrated with an unparalleled number of "frame-linked movable gimmicks," this Gundam promises fluidity in movement, achieving a synergy between its various components. Its detailed design is further accentuated by deliberate armour gaps and strategically placed red clear parts, enhancing the frame's prominence. In terms of firepower, the Strike Freedom doesn’t hold back. It's equipped with an arsenal of intricately designed weapons, from the "Long Range Beam Rifle" to the commanding "Super Laquerta Beam Saber." And for those building this titan? Bandai has thoughtfully incorporated a "Paper Craft Runner Stand" to streamline the assembly. The MGEX Strike Freedom Gundam is not just a model; it's a 2022 testament to Bandai’s relentless pursuit of perfection, offering an unparalleled building experience.

Assembly Guide

SKILL LEVEL REQUIRED
Skill Level.3. Basic modeling skills are essential. These kits are not recommended for beginners or children due to the high level of complexity of assembly and the sheer volume of parts. Experience in building more complex Gunpla models is recommended. Parental supervision is essential. A full set of hobby tools is recommended that includes, nippers, hobby knives, sandpaper, sanding sticks, files, buffing files, glues, tweezers, and decal adhesive/softener. Parts will need to be removed by using a pair of nippers and cutting the part away from the runner. Parts may require clean-up where they were removed from the runner.
No Cement Required

Gunpla (plastic model kits) are a snap together assembly and do not need plastic cement to complete. We always recommend having some plastic cement handy as a part of your modeler's tool kit. If you prefer to fix your model in a particular pose then plastic cement will work. Plastic cement is also perfect to use if a joint is loose. Apply plastic cement in a single thin layer and allow it to dry completely before test fitting. Re-apply more cement if necessary.

No Painting Required

Gunpla (plastic model kits) are designed to be built and displayed without the need for painting. Kits are molded in different colours replicating the colours of the actual mecha from the Mecha series. A technique called colour separation, where multiple parts of the model are molded in different colours on the same sprue is also used. Mecha kits often include stickers or water-slide decals that can be applied to the model to enhance its appearance. Some Gunpla kits come with pre-painted parts or parts with pre-applied details, such as metallic or translucent finishes.

Many modelers still choose to paint their kits to customize and add further detail. Painting allows for more creativity and personalization, enabling modelers to achieve unique effects, weathering, and colour schemes that may not be available out of the box. However, the kits are designed to be enjoyable and visually appealing even without painting, making them accessible to a wide range of hobbyists.

Frequently Asked Questions

What differentiates the "Cosmic Era" from other Gundam timelines?

The "Cosmic Era" introduces a world polarized by genetic modification. Natural-born humans, "Naturals", coexist with genetically-enhanced humans, "Coordinators", leading to social and political tensions that trigger large-scale conflicts.

Who are the central figures in "Gundam SEED"?

The story revolves around Kira Yamato, a Coordinator, and his friends, as they're thrust into a war between the Earth Alliance and ZAFT. Kira pilots the GAT-X105 Strike Gundam, struggling with his role and the realities of warfare.

What is the central mobile suit technology in the "Cosmic Era"?

The series introduces "Phase Shift" armour, which renders mobile suits virtually invulnerable to conventional weapons. The energy-intensive technology deactivates when power runs low, leaving suits vulnerable.

How does "Gundam SEED Destiny" relate to "Gundam SEED"?

"Gundam SEED Destiny" is a direct sequel set two years after "SEED". It introduces Shinn Asuka as its new protagonist, delving deeper into the aftermath of the previous conflict and the resurgence of hostilities.

Are there any iconic mobile suits from the "Cosmic Era"?

Yes, aside from the Strike Gundam, the series is known for suits like the ZGMF-X10A Freedom, ZGMF-X09A Justice, and their successors in "SEED Destiny", the ZGMF-X20A Strike Freedom and ZGMF-X19A ∞ Justice.

MGEX Strike Freedom Golden Week deal

Awesome kit, great extras. Only criticism is that the kit comes with a base so you don't need the second one. The kit also doesn't have the ability to take the blue LED bonus so if you don't have another use for it it is wasted. Luckily, I'm a Gundam tragic so will always have uses for extra bases and lighting kits.

Excellent service and fast delivery

I purchased on 6 Jan and my order arrived on 13 Jan. It was very well packed, with both boxes in excellent condition. Cam even provided a small free gift in the box! Overall purchasing experience was smooth and hassle-free. I haven’t had the chance to build the kit yet, but based on the service and care taken with shipping, I would happily purchase from this store if there are other Space Battleship Yamato models available.

Very rare with fair price

If you were one of the lucky ones that were able to travel to Sydney Gundam Base pop-up in 2025 and queued extremely early (like the first 40 or so) on the first day, probably you were able to grab one of these. Otherwise, the only alternative I would know of is traveling to Japan and being uber lucky of having it still being sold at Gundam bases. Otherwise, it's a second-hand market, and prices will go up. That said, the price was fair, I think it would be similar price as using a dropship service from Japan, with the exception that it's much faster and way more guaranteed you will get proper merchandise. So, Mecha Express, Cam, thank you so much for your store!
