A Taiwanese modeler has recently finished modding his PG 1/60 00 Gundam to become 00 Gundam Seven Sword/G. To sum it up: this is one heck of an impressive work.00 Gundam standing & equipped with GN Sword II Blaster and GN Buster Sword IIThe 00 Gundam itself.GN Sword II LongClose up shot on the barrel of GN Sword II LongGN Sword II ShortGN KatarGN Katar lit up o_oThe signature weapon: GN Buster Sword IIBack of GN Buster Sword IiCloser view of the GN Buster Sword II showing the decalsParts expanded with lit up partsGN Buster Sword II fully expanded, revealing the creator's original design GN Drive in the centre (i.e. non-canonical)GN Sword II BlasterClose up view of GN Sword II Blaster, showing the paint work as well as the smaller details such as screwsGN Sword II Blaster lit up.

The GN Buster Sword II has an inner frame which is apparently from MG Astray Red Frame Kai. Other minor modifications are done on the 00 Gundam itself, such as some proportion corrections and allowing the feet to bend backwards.All images are from the creator shockingkimo (aka wuncin999999 on ToysDaily forum). You can have a look at his WIP posts here.I remember first seeing the GN Buster Sword II last year when the creator posted it on ToysDaily forum (before PG 00 Raiser was released). It was one ambitious project that I thought I may not hear again, but it is now finished a year after the creator announced his 00 Gundam Seven Sword/G project. It's definitely an impressive work he has done there, and he has just made it into BAKUC as well. Speaking of BAKUC, the BAKUC Final international competition is held in Hong Kong around December 2010 (i.e. Gundam Expo Hong Kong 2010). I do hope to see this PG 00 Gundam Seven Sword/G to make it there, as I am really taken by his work!All images are from shockingkimo's blog via ToysDaily forum
