 Strike Freedom In Action Aug 03, 2010
By Joshua
This is a wonderful model of what is one of the most impressive Gundams ever built. It has a great deal of joint articulation, and interchangeable parts (shields, guns, hands). Not to mention it has built in lights. So when it's late, you can flip the switch and it will light up in true majesty!
 1/60 Strike Freedom Lightning Edition Jun 30, 2010
By FenixFallen
I had just gotten back into Gundam models about a half a year ago, and I started with the Perfect Grade Strike Gundam. so when I say that I was overall unsatisfied with the 1/60 Strike Freedom, it may come from a slight bias to the detail of the Perfect Grades. I got the Strike Freedom in the 1/60 form so that it could match up to my other 1/60s on my shelf, but after getting it and getting a feel for the parts, it just doesn't compare to PGs.
The model has only a partial inner frame, where the lighting wires and LEDs go through. there is no detail on this inner frame, but you could probably take the armor off if you wanted. the lighting effect itself is sort of cool, but a big downside is that the light in the head is separate from the rest of the body. the power for the body lights comes from the stand. the pose-ability isn't too bad, the joints feel stiff though and you will be afraid to really wrench on them for fear of ripping out your wiring job.
the wings are pretty huge, and as far as weight goes they weigh about as much as the rest of the model. they also feel pretty chintzy, and one of the circular pieces of the plastic that holds the wings to the backpack actually broke, along with the peg that was supposed to keep it stationary. it was a real pain to get the wing back apart to repair this, so I would suggest gluing it in from the start, for anyone else who builds this model. it's a little gold circular piece that goes in between the 2 pieces of plastic making up each of the 4 wings. if you glue it in it will save you a lot of hassle later. the dragoons do come off, but they're pretty boring by themselves.
the model doesn't have a ton of panel lines, but the dragoons would definitely benefit from some added detail.
overall I can't give this model much more than a 3 star rating, because I didn't feel satisfied after building it, and I am not convinced it was worth the money paid for it. I have since gone out and bought the MG 1/100 Strike Freedom Full Burst Mode, and I look forward to building that. it has much more detail, and it costs less.

The Gundam Seed Destiny Strike Freedom with Flash Edition 1/60 Scale Model is great. It was two day of fun as I put this model together and I love the finished product. I would highly recommend this product to anyone that loves models.
