Straight Build: LM-HG 3rd Angel Sachiel

After getting most all of the Eva units, I was luckily able to come across another Eva kit from the LM-HG line. This time its the second angel in the kit's series, The 3rd Angel Sachiel. I believe it is the second to the last of the LM-HG Eva series with the final version of the Eva-05 being the last.


I'm not sure if this was a hard to find kit in the years of its initial release, but now its one of the rarer kits in the Eva series kits.

WIP: MG The O (Part 4) - The Waist and Weapons

After finishing the legs from last time, all that's left now is the waist section and weapons to complete The O.

The O's waist inner frame is made up of just four pieces. The ball that connects the waist to the thighs are on a hinge that allows the legs to swing forward.

WIP: MG The O (Part 3) - The Legs

Moving on after finishing the upper body, we start building the feet.

MG The O Foot Inner Frame Pieces

The O's foot has an inner frame that is separate from the foot armor, unlike other MG kits where the inner frame is part of the armor for the bottom of the foot.

The foot assembly is quite simple since there isn't much movement in The O's feet.

The O has some massive feet.

WIP: MG The O (Part 2) - The Head, Arms and Shoulder

Continuing from last time, the next sections to be built are the head, arms and shoulder binders.

Starting off with the head.

The armor section of the head can be easily pulled off from the head making for easy assembly after seam removal.

Looks like he is wearing a wizards hat.

WIP: MG The O (Part 1) - The Torso

I got this monster of a MG Gundam kit last week but wasn't able to work on it until today.

This is the MG The O.

 A brief background on The O.
The MS was used in the Zeta Gundam series. It was designed and piloted my Paptimus Scirocco and is one of the four mobile suits seen fighting in the anime's finale.
The box of the kit is huge. The boxes of any of the other extra large MG kits I have will fit in it. Even the box of my PG Strike will fit in it. The box doesn't open like other MG kits but rather open from either sides. The box also comes with a handle. From what I know this is currently the most expensive non-special edition MG kit available today.
