Strike Gundam Ver. Acheo [updated on 10/12]

One day while browsing through a gunpla modelling forum http://z3.invisionfree.com/Zero_G i stumble upon a thread posted by one of the member.

it was a youtube video about some guy in a gundam suit doing cosplay.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z_auihsV-7YWow, I found this clip about someone cosplay as Gundam Exia from Gundam 00 series doing some caramelldasen/dancing. What I'm amazed it's not at the dancing but at the suit. The suit it's one of the most best gundam cosplay suit I've ever seen. Not bulky as the other's, kinda accurate and anime lookalike. See it for yourself. " unquote

hmm..i thought to myself, well i think i should be able to come out with one myself too. So i embarked on a journey and came out with my very own version..
