HGUC Sentinel S Gundam













If you like Gundam with long powerful beam weapon then Sentinel Gundam is the choice. In general, S Gundam is taller than average MS given its long legs and high shoulders. This Gundam supposedly is able to transform between MS and flight mode but not possible in this HGUC kit. Nevertheless, Bandai had threw in a core fighter as a consolation. An interesting feature on this kit is that the skirt of S Gundam can join up with the long rifle as a stabilizer. Due to the massive weapon and blocky shoulder pad, the articulation was very much reduced. I guess the pilot have little worries on that issue as the enemy would have been annihilated before they even come near. This kit that I'm featuring is courtesy of Legendary Guy 'A', who had sprayed the kit entirely to make it look realistically metallic.

Indeed, one Gundam that's deserve more than an appearance on novel.

Yup! The kind of Gundam that give an impression of a high class MS at the first look.

Great looking kit bro!! The metallic colors look great for S gundam.

Dennis aka Katsuden said...

It's a kit that's quite hard to find these days. Even though I someone who goes for matt finish, I agreed metallic is a good pick too!

Bro I see two color tone different between his left and right shoulders. Was it done in purpose?

Dennis aka Katsuden said...

Bro, the different on tone I guess is due to the effect of white paint over the initial code of silver paint. The edge of light while taking the pics also affect tone as well.

Always liked this Gundam as he resembles an NFL Football Player with those hug shoulders.

That Beam Rifle does go quite well with this figure due to size.

Dennis aka Katsuden said...

Talking about NFL footballer, Maxter Gundam from G Gundam fits the role.

Legendary Guy A's S Gundam sparkles wildly! Great effort.

Dennis aka Katsuden said...

Ha! Ha! Guy 'A' had waited anxiously for me to post his Gunpla. He would sure love the compliments.

well i guess this is the base for the Ex-S Gundam (i mean the Ex-S is an extra armor) & yep the design is fabulous... he looks fierce & fearsome, just as a sentinel class must look... BTW pal, i’m about to get my own airbrush & compressor so, as a rookie, i’ll join the club of those who dare to paint their model kits HAHAHA... really nice post there... =)

Dennis aka Katsuden said...

I guess when they named anything 'sentinel' the fellow or thing outlook would usually be of some class. Happy for you that you are going for airbrush & compressor. Now you are sentinel pal! Ha! Ha!
