After seeing pics of my
Strike Gundam, I know that many of you are thinking of getting hold of one but you may just want to hold off for a wee bit longer - you dont have to rush into getting Strike because you could always go for
Rouge.
I nearly soiled my pants when I saw these developmental pics of the up and coming 1/60 scale Strike Freedom Gundam - just feast your eyes on it will you! As you can see, Freedom comes with transparent parts which glow when you flick the switch. Details on Freedom are still sketchy at the moment so I cant tell you if it runs off batteries or the mains.
Freedom will be out this November in Japan - retail price is 9,975 yen but you can probably pick it up for 7,500 yen (about 75 USD). Many places including Amazon are already taking pre-orders.
Do note that this is *not* a Perfect Grade - which means that it wont have billions of parts but Bandai promise a "near Perfect Grade".
Below:Freedom after a lick of paint. If I end up getting one - I'll probably use different colors as I have never been keen on Freedoms color set.
