Been looking forward to this release last month by Bandai of the 1/144 High Grade version of the Kshatriya Repaired. In the Gundam UC OVA's the Kshatriya was badly beaten by the Gundam Unicorn. Marida Cruz and the Kshatriya were therefore captured by the Earth Federation forces. The Kshatriya was "repaired" by the Earth Federation forces, lacking the original parts, it ended up looking like a Frankenstein mishmash of mobile suit parts. Of course I still prefer the original version of the Kshatriya, such a glorious beast of a mobile suit. Really looking forward to watch the latest installment of the Gundam UC OVA.
The 1/144 High Grade Kshatriya Repaired is selling for $ at Amazon, 4850 yen at Amiami, 5200 yen at HobbyLink Japan
