Description
RG 1/144 33 Force Impulse Gundam
Immerse yourself in the world of Gundam SEED Destiny with the meticulously crafted Real Grade (RG) model kit of the Force Impulse Gundam. This highly detailed kit boasts an upgraded Advanced MS Joint system in the Core Splendor and chest assembly for enhanced articulation.
The Force Impulse Gundam model features exceptional color separation and perfectly recreated color hues, capturing the essence of the original design. Its combining gimmick with the Chest, Leg, and Force Silhouettes adds an extra layer of complexity and realism to this miniature masterpiece.
Experience the improved range of motion thanks to the updated drop-down gimmick for the legs, while the arms’ rotation on two different axes minimizes parts interference. Additionally, the Force Silhoutte wings are meticulously designed after real-world aircrafts and fold away in a captivating manner.
The set includes an arsenal of weaponry, including a beam rifle, two knives, two beam sabers, an expanding shield, and interchangeable hands. This 1/144 Scale model is made of durable plastic and measures 4.84 inches (12.3cm) when completed.
As part of the Real Grade model kit series, the Force Impulse Gundam offers a challenging yet rewarding building experience for model enthusiasts of all skill levels. Follow the included instructions (which may or may not include English translation) to assemble the model without requiring glue. However, a hobby nipper is necessary to remove parts from runners.

That and given the current situation, the site has been super helpful, and courteous, having even sent a couple updates on the order's progress. Totally gonna order from this site again.
Thou one minor thing On packaging is that the Gundam box doesn’t have plastic seal on it and the box was crushed.

I want to emphasize shipping rates. I know shipping to Hawaii from Florida is quite a task for the USPS, so the fact that you have kept shipping rates low or reasonable is a big plus in my book, and it says a lot more than the previous site I used to order from, because they're based in CA, but no matter what you buy, from an MG kit, all the way down to a single bottle of Vallejo paint or even a single sheet of decals, their shipping to Hawaii is $25. Considering your rates, along with another east coast small business, and a small one-man-show in Japan (who does free shipping to Hawaii from Japan), $25 is ridiculous in my opinion, so again, I want to thank you for the service you provide. I can't feed my hobby without you folks supporting it, and you will continue to have my business in the future.
Thank you.
Only word of caution is to be extra careful when cutting out the antenna. These things are thin and delicate, broke mine while trimming the gate. Other than that, the whole kit holds together well. The lower wings are designed to help this kit stay upright even without a stand, a nice touch.
Even as a new-ish builder, I know there’s a stigma for older Real Grades that don’t quite hold up. Having just finished and been disappointed by the RG Freedom and even knowing that RGs from Unicorn after have a much better reputation, I was still admittedly very nervous to build this one.
My fears went away around the time I assembled the chest. All throughout the kit, it was solid and stable, yet surprisingly flexible with deceptive articulation. Even the combining gimmicks with the Core Splendor was surprisingly stable!
There’s not one thing I didn’t like about this build. This is truly an essential Real Grade to get!
