Together with the standard release RG Strike Freedom Gundam

Together with the Club G release RG Destiny Gundam [Titanium Finish].

This kit is the RG Strike Freedom Gundam [Titanium Finish], released as a Club G (Premium Bandai) online exclusive. It's based on the RG Strike Freedom Gundamwith a Titanium Finish coating applied to the white armor. The frame features gold plating, while the remaining exterior runners use metallic molding.

First off, since the design has a lot of white armor, the Titanium Finish — which really shines on white — is working to maximum effect here. On top of that, the joint parts and all the gold parts are gold-plated, and the remaining parts get metallic molding on top of that. So even a straight build gives you an incredibly flashy look. Deploy the Super Dragooons or spread the wings and that brilliant gold-plated frame is fully exposed, letting the kit show off an even more dazzling sparkle.

That said, some joints have gotten a bit stiffer due to the coating, while the waist and hip joints are slightly loose, so the joint strength balance feels a bit off. The foot contact with the ground is iffy and the backpack is heavy, so it's still not the easiest RG kit to get standing upright. Even so, it holds up fine on a stand, and if you add the Strike Freedom expansion effect unit "Wings of the Sky" released through Club G, the visual impact goes through the roof.

All in all, this is a kit where the coating effect really delivers 200% — if you love the Strike Freedom and enjoy Titanium Finish-type coatings, this is definitely one you won't want to miss. :-)
