Words cannot exaggerate how much I wish this came with a different striker pack. The lack of color accuracy is one thing but making this a redeco was wasted potential imo when the old kit came with an IWSP
One of the OG suits to have survive up until SEED Freedom. 1:29 It's true for the first SEED series, but in Destiny, all the accessories of the Strike Rogue have light pink trim instead of white.
I find it funny how they even got okuwara to touch up the lineart and give it more detail for the movie only for the damn thing to be covered by the cavalier the entire time it’s on screen. We literally only see its feet and arms lol
@@TheTechPoTaToCHIP They did make a 3D model of it too, but if you look closely when it's attached to the Cavalier, it's literally the head and body of the Akatsuki, and shoulders of the 105 Dagger. They just kitbashed the Akatsuki and Dagger's 3D models, probably cuz they didn't have enough budget for a brand new 3D Strike Rouge model.
There is something oddly peak about Kira being told he would have to fly the Strike Rouge for one sortie, only for him to go "Ew, no, that's gay!" and demanding they change the phase shift to standard Strike colors.
It's moreso that he'd be piloting something he's used to with his combat data and specs, but it is funny to see. Hell, would've been nice to see him pilot a pink Strike.
Yeah, after all these years, the HG Build Strike Mold really holds up. Too bad they didn’t reuse it for the Akatsuki or rerelease it with the IWSP… and we got a Real Grade of the former and we all know how that went…
The HGCE Strike mold deserves to be used more for how good it is. If only Bandai took full use of its potential nowadays instead of using it to sell PB grunts
Dunno, I really like the pink and red color combination. Perfect Strike Freedom Rouge was a fun kit for me to build. The Rouge versions just stick out more in the sea of usually white, blue and red Gundams with yellow highlights.
The Strike Revives are recycled from the HG Build Strike. Runner C parts number 12, there are shoulder thrusters that can't be fitted on the Cosmic Era Strike. They're only compatible for the Build Strike. Also, when are you gonna reciew the HG Grandaddy Revive?
In an interesting case, should we get an Ootori Striker, they could also include the booster unit that helped it reach the Eternal with Heinlein's new toys (at the time) carried within.
Since you just recently did the Aile Strike Rouge, any plans to review Option Set Parts 01? I expected an exact remold of the HGCE Aile, and they made many more minor changes than I expected.
I recently build the HG Strike Rouge with IWSP pack and it's not too shabby. Sure it looks goofy and Articulation is mid, but the IWSP itself was fun to build and it has huge white stickers but honestly, they fit well and don't peel. The weapons could've been better but it's not too bad. The grip of the beam rifle is just a joke of how bad it is.
this was legit a missed opportunity for the IWSP or Ootori strikers Especially since: - Ootori still doesnt have an hg form - IWSP is still quite old (heck even the rg uses the old iwsp with new decals)
@@mj2005gundam Yeah man, you deserved to get it quickly. I hope you can somehow find it on your local store so that you wouldn't get stuck in the backorder line 🗿
I've liked the Rouge due to it not being the standard tri-colors. Sadly, it literally is just a propaganda machine that pops out and stops fighting with talk-no-jutsu
This kit is good because the HGCE Aile Strike was good... but it represents so much wasted potential. Where's my Ootori pack in HG, Bandai?! Having a standalone Aile Striker add-on kit that's basically the same as the HGCE (proportions and seam placement and all) but with improved wings just feels like extra salt in the wound.
I mean, fair enough. Though missing the Ootori, it still doesn't take much away from the HGCE Strike as a whole regardless of colors. Hopefully Bandai would one day give some attention to that seeing as they're still riding the SEED Freedom high. But in all honesty, they might make the Cavalier first

Imagine modern HG IWSP or Ootori. My lord wouldn’t that be amazing.
Could've been a SEED Destiny version, but they had to stick with the Aile Strike Rouge from normal SEED because they were lazy
Worse yet, the RG Strike Rouge, which is PBamco, used the same old HG IWSP, just colored differently, and has a different adapter piece
I actually built the strike rouge + iwsp the other day and it feels pretty good
Not like the Ootari would've been hard.
Half the job was more or less done with the Build Booster after all.

It's mostly for the Aile Striker used by the Rouge. They'd better have unified it for the Ootori
@@mj2005gundam IF they ever make to Ootori.

This is still one of my favorite HGs. Aside from the Striker pack, it's super solid.
how does it compare to the similiar build strike battlogue/hgbf kits?
Solid, easy to build, fun to pose, just everything you'd want from an HG kit

Shame they dont have HG Strike Rouge ootori striker pack
Absolutely. Ootori is such an awesome striker and too underrated in the model kit arena.
It is such a shame..

Which is kinda why I went with this instead of the standard. Though that might change in the future
Is the HGCE line around the same time as HGAGE line? That would explain why they age so well.
I see what you did there
Pun aside, the HGCE line comes after the HG AGE line
Heck yea that era of HGs are some of the best even being a decade old now.
HGAGE is 2011, HGCE is 2014
Pink ja nai, magenta da!
Pinky Janai

Onore Decadooooo
Loving the Decade reference.
It is just pure pink though.. reference aside
The Strike Revives are recycled from the HG Build Strike.
Runner C parts number 12, there are shoulder thrusters that can't be fitted on the Cosmic Era Strike. They're only compatible for the Build Strike.
Also, when are you gonna reciew the HG Grandaddy Revive?
Thank you for stating the obvious.
Dunno about a redux of an HG Granddaddy Revive. Might do it someday, but it's not high on my priority list
Strike Rouge (Kira Colors)
Paint the damn eyes green for that
I think I finally get the joke
I'm shocked they haven't done a PBandai release with the Ootori and more vibrant pink
Bandai doesn't know how to make money
Could you review the hg murasame the og one
ikr I like the murasame kai aesthethics but the OG was fully transformable
If I can find it at a good price, since I don't think it's part of the reissued batch
by any chance what's the other hg you mentioned that pioneered the universal standard my brain is smush
The HGCE Strike and HGAC Wing molds were the pioneers of the modern standard thanks to Build Fighters
@@mj2005gundam ah i seeeeeeee
(Another reason build fighters was the goat lets be real here)
I enjoyed The HGCE Aile Strike Gundam but the Strike Rouge is just as amazing
Granted, it's just a palette swap, but hey.
Best part is that it's 100% compatible with the old HG Seed Strike Rouge's IWSP
Worst part is, you have to get the HG or the RG and put up with their individual flaws to get it
@@mj2005gundam Having done so, I believe it's worth it.
In an interesting case, should we get an Ootori Striker, they could also include the booster unit that helped it reach the Eternal with Heinlein's new toys (at the time) carried within.
If only that would happen. They love the Strike-based kits, but for some reason hate the Rouge enough to not give it either of its striker packs
Since you just recently did the Aile Strike Rouge, any plans to review Option Set Parts 01?
I expected an exact remold of the HGCE Aile, and they made many more minor changes than I expected.
Yes I do, and the plan is to review both option sets together. That's why it's delayed

Sure it looks goofy and Articulation is mid, but the IWSP itself was fun to build and it has huge white stickers but honestly, they fit well and don't peel. The weapons could've been better but it's not too bad. The grip of the beam rifle is just a joke of how bad it is.
If only I have the patience for the old kits left.
man, i would like to buy 1 but in my country its either does not exist anymore or the price has ballooned up almost 300%
I've heard it's getting reissued soon, so maybe there's still hope
Still waiting for the Hg Ootori strike it should come out any day now.....
right?
The Cavalier will come out before the Ootori, trust me
Curious, but is the HG Strike Gundam cross-compatible with the EG Striker Packs?
Seeing as those include striker pack adapters, I'd think so.
It is!
@altairofastora alright, guess im buying one. Thr EG Strike's right leg is a pain to keep on.
Yes. In fact, all Striker packs across the various HGs are compatible with each other barring any design restrictions
this was legit a missed opportunity for the IWSP or Ootori strikers
Especially since:
- Ootori still doesnt have an hg form
- IWSP is still quite old (heck even the rg uses the old iwsp with new decals)
If only they packaged the IWSP with this kit. Even if it's a lazy move, it'd still separate the Rouge from the standard
HGUC Strike VS EG Strike?
That would be a good Cheese vs Cheese video now that I've experienced them both properly
No HG Gyan Strom yet??? What the hell even happened??? 🤨🤨🤨
Let's see if I get it in with the Infinite Justice Type II. If not, I'll wait for the UK to have it properly and cancel my HLJ order
@@mj2005gundam Yeah man, you deserved to get it quickly. I hope you can somehow find it on your local store so that you wouldn't get stuck in the backorder line 🗿
Mmmmmm pink
Pink
I always liked the Strike Rouge.
Sad the idea as a propaganda Machine was scapped.
And I need the Perfect Strike Freedom Rouge 😣
I've liked the Rouge due to it not being the standard tri-colors. Sadly, it literally is just a propaganda machine that pops out and stops fighting with talk-no-jutsu
