Bandai HGUC 1/144 Jesta Group Build by MVPFigure.com

Dear Gunpla lovers! We are going to have a Bandai 1/144 HGUC Jesta Group Build! This is the first Gunpla group build event organize by MVPFigure (to be exact, B-Mecha). Erm, you don’t know what is Jesta? Hmm let me ~~poison you~~ introduce the Gunpla kit to you :).

Don’t you just love the special forces colour scheme? In this picture, That is the colour of the gunpla without any paint job. By default it is navi blue & grey theme.This Jesta gives a whole list of possibility for custom build / colour scheme as a grunt unit while reserve the elite unit design.

RGM-96X Jesta in Gundam UC (Unicorn) Anime

RGM-96X Jesta is a high class Jegan designed for the purpose of supporting Unicorn Gundam. The units are assigned to special forces so these are the elite units :D (that explains the SWAT colour scheme). Hopefully we will get to see this unit in Gundam UC Episode 4.

How to join this Jesta group build?

If you are updated enough, the HGUC Jesta is targeted to release on late September 2011. There are plenty of time for you to consider how to build & paint this kit. There isn’t any particular time frame at this moment but I hope to see some works before November 2011, so everyone won’t forget about this event XD.

Requirements

Gunpla Kit: HGUC 1/144 RGM-96X Jesta
Gunpla Release date: End September 2011
Timeline: No deadline. But hopefully to see something like 1 Work in Progress post before November 2011

Submission:

Create at least a WIP (work in progress, so we know you really did it) & a completed Jesta blog post in your own blog / website.

Submit the text (word document / txt file) and images (JPEGs) to story[at]mvpfigure.com and I’ll post it in MVPFigure.

I may give it a shot. Sorry about no progress on the GM III while I wait for replacement parts. I do have 10 Balls that you may or may not have heard about though.

I might get it a bit late, but it’s the first thing I’m gonna do if I managed to get a Jesta in my hand (hopefully it won’t get out of stock before I get one, since this is gonna be the most popular grunt unit ever on sale >_<).
