MG Exia Ignition Mode Review

Gunpla Secret Base is currently building the much anticipated MG Exia Ignition Mode, two reviews in one go! ^^




Extra runners for the Ignition Mode.


The text on the G Drive are molded directly on the clear green part. Awesome molding technology ^^
Not an exclusive part for the Ignition Mode, fans who are planning to buy the normal mode will be getting this as well.


The "hologram sheet" to be used as the GN Stripes - which shine with multiple colors when viewed from different angles. I'm most curious as to how it's done ^^


Quite a lot of foil stickers this time.


Cover of the manual - a very dynamic design which can be seen on other special version MGs like Strike Freedom Full Burst and Destiny Extreme Blast Mode.
Will the normal mode have an all-new design for the cover?


4 batteries required for the two LEDs


Parts for the GN Drive - another LED unit should be in as well, for either the front or the back.




Very beautiful lighting effect. Must be even more tempting for the fans now ^^

July 23rd release, 6,825 Yen. First batch of release special price - 5,250 Yen. Normal mode - 3,990 Yen (inclusive of tax).
