Needs more pink! Some Japanese lady thought a MG Gyan Gundam figure wasn't girly enough, so she was "inspired" to give it a more "feminine air." The customized model has been covered with faux jewels, and the plastic surface has been treated and lacquered. The attention to detail is astounding (like on the dress, for example), sure, we're just enthralled with GLOWING SWORD.

Wow, I don't even have enough of an attention span to even build one of those, much less paint it and then jewel it.
Now the machine just needs a handbag and a nagging program to become a super weapon.
That looks great! Reminds me of the platinum Gungam too.
I'm not a Gundam fan, but they are two models I'd have no qualms about owning.
GLOWING SWORD
That should be the icon on important posts; it sure as hell grabbed my ey-GLOWING SWORD....sorry.
Not bad! It wouldnt be my first choice in color scheme and decoration but I would enjoy to add that to my collection along with my other Gundam figures. (U.C. Gundams are the minority on my shelf so I think it would be an improvement in my U.C. representation.)
Could always give it Sonic Sound attacks as well
Wow! I was really impressed at first glance, but after looking at the close-up images and seeing all the detail I'm far beyond impressed, I'm in love! What an amazing work of art. Somebody clearly had alot of patience. I could never do anything like that.
Great detailed work! I even like the shield.
If she wanted girly looking mobile suits she should have just got the Lacus Clyne Concert Zaku or Soma Pieres Tieran Taozi. Both come in pink by default, the concert Zaku even has a heart on it.
I wish I had more of these models though, my MG Freedom and my 1/144 HG BuCUE are lonely.
The glowing sword is kinda cool. A bit overkill though with the jewels.
That looks really good, though the coolest model for me is the movie version of Wing Zero, though I wish he came with two sabers instead of one
Secret unit in Super Robot Wars?
I would fucking buy this in a second if I wasn't broke.
And if I made more money <_<
@Odin:
Of course she could've gone with Chars Zaku. That's arguably pink.
Didn't they have a Nobel model as well, or was there only a FixFig?
BEDAZZLE!!!!
@GruntyBalboa:
True, or Lunamarias Zaku which is reletively pink. I just picked out those two as the obviously pink'n'girly suits.
Good for her! Glowing swords are win.
wth are people talking about? this is one manly ass gundam.
Uh... what?
Somewhere, a gundam fanboy weeps.
Im the only one that thinks on Code Geass by looking at this?
Gyaaaaaaaaaaaaan!
That out of the way, that MG is pretty awesome.
@Channing: I'm like you for the most part. Except I could build one, but that would be about as far as I could go.
Amazing customize job on the mecha. There are a lot of sparklys added. But it looks like it was all done in a very balanced manner. Where even if there is a lot it doesn't look like overkill.
@Grey Gecko: sure your not thinking of full metal panic? looks like no mecha in code geass man. anybody know which gundam series this is from because i do not recall seeing this EVER in all my lifetime. and i consider myself quite the gundam fanboy too.
There have been pink Zeon Mobile suits forever in Model Kits... but this is a waste.
A bit odd, the pilot was a guy named M'Quve... And it's pronounced "Makubeh." Guy loved to collect ming vases, and was a dandy. If only he customized his suit like that.
I can't wait for a REALLY pimped out The O.
Gundam? Looks more like a She-Tekkaman (Tekkawoman?) to me. But then again, I'm no Gundam expert...
Look, I'm sorry, but I call foul. An kotaku article has to at least _rhyme_ with "video game."
@ban_hammer: Wing Zero does come with two sword, and two gun (but the guns are shit cause they're center of mass doesn't compliment the plastic hand's weak grip)
Freaking wish I could get the sabers to glow like that.

Errr um... Is this some DLC for that shoddy gundam ps3 game? I'm so confused.
THAT'S NOT A GUNDAM!!!
That is a Gyan, a Zeon mobile suit!
NOT A GUNDAM!!
The Gyan...what did that monster do to it?! One of my favorite mobile suits go the Quuer Eye treatment!
@AntiZERØ:
I've found it's the same with the Freedom model I have, even though it's an MG model you can't get a tight grip on the gun for love nor money.
@AstrayPenguin:
Yeah, I have a feeling I should have called this out earlier too.
Where's the shield, with its 56 (no doubt jewel-encrusted) missile launchers?
@melonman: Its from the original Gundam.

Oh wow, that's definitely the best pink Gundam I've ever seen.
I mean Mobile Suit. Sorry, I had a lapse in judgment there.
It's so gay...yet so phallic!
