Putting together the MG 1/100 RMS-179 GM II Semi Striker

The Bandai MG 1/100 RMS-179 GM II Semi Striker is built for hobbyists who prefer a challenging project. As a Master Grade kit it offers a balance of surface detail and mechanical robustness. The Semi Striker configuration gives it distinct weapons and reinforced armour that make it a notable entry in the GM range.

Build complexity and parts layout

The 1/100 scale allows intricate moulded detail and sensible part separation for painting. Master Grade complexity means many small sections and precise fitting; the kit benefits from careful trimming and dry fitting. Undergates help reduce visible nub marks when properly cleaned up.

Articulation, posing and display

Well-engineered joints permit a wide variety of stances, with shoulder and elbow joints offering good rotation and holding power. The kit ships with a selection of weapons such as beam sabers and a shield, providing options for dynamic or neutral displays.

Personalisation and finishing

There is good scope for customising paint schemes and adding weathering. Sub-assemblies are convenient for masking, and panel lining is straightforward to apply. Builders can swap parts or add small custom details to make a unique finish.

The MG 1/100 RMS-179 GM II Semi Striker is a satisfying Master Grade kit that rewards careful work with strong poseability and customisation potential.
