  1. Looks really good to me, but I wonder how much of the production model will rely on stickers to get the colors right? Seems like it will require a lot of decals to get it color accurate.

    1. More like amphibious variant of gundam.

    2. The original Gundam can go under water too, but its performance drops significantly and standard beam weaponry doesn't work submerged. The Gundiver is optimized for underwater performance and has a specialized beam rifle and other weapons that work better under water. It's the same principle as Zeon having the Z'gok or Zaku Mariner instead of using the standard Zaku for amphibious assault.

  4. Another MSV that appeared in Gundam UC getting the lime light as a HG kit. Why'd they have to go and make it A P-Bandai exclusive though? They're putting out way to many as P-Bandai. That being said, i'm glad their showing the MSV line more love. I wonder if the Aqua GM is comming down the pike.

    1. I'm hoping so. I'd love to see MSV kits that arent Zeon centered. I'd kill for a GM Sniper Custom, GM Cannon, or Guntank II...

    1. Meh, at least it's more interesting than the Lydo Wolf GM Sniper.

  6. Based on the legs and torso, it's a modified gundam local type.
    Still nice though.

  7. Years of obsession with gunpla and I've never heard of this one before. It looks good, I might get it if it's not 90% stickers.

  10. Again, why is this a P-Bandai while the fucking brown and other Petitgguy aren't?

  11. Just took a long, hard look at this. It uses the base mold of the HG Local Type Gundam and yes, it will be 80% stickers. Most of the orange sections and some blue/white sections look/are painted on.

  12. You can actually pilot one of these in SD Gundam G Generations Portable. Not bad honestly.
