Hello boys and girls! I finished constructing Omnimon and it took shorter than expected, approx. three hours only! While i take photos i decided i'll review the Cherudim Gundam from the Gundam 00 series. The model stands about 17 - 18cm tall with a range of different attachments. First off he comes with a huge sniper (which can fold in half to make more of a cannon) and two smaller white hand guns.
In addition to this the model features a shield that's constructed from parts of the Gundams armour, if you've seen the anime the parts are called "bits", the shield is about the same height as the Gundam but requires you to remove armour from the model making it naked and less attractive so i opted not to use the shield.A surprising nice feature of this model is that it came with holographic stickers instead of the standard ones. This bought me back to my primary school years as my brother collected holographic spiderman comic book cards. Now those were awesome!
You probably can't tell but these eyes are holographic. :DConstructing the actual model is enjoyable and the plastic seems of seemingly good quality. Unlike the Omnimon which i had just recently built which was made out of very thin plastic, this model was sturdy and not only looked great but actually is a lot tougher than Omnimon. But then again some could criticize and call the model "chunky", so its really up to preference.
Cherudim looks great and has high possibility, if your into chunkyish models which come with different attachments and extras, ASWELL as sweet holographic stickers i recommend this model. I bought this model off Minotaur in the city, they also had a different designers version which wasn't featured in the anime, this variation looked a lot more like a military tank with the added stripes so i gave it miss.
A great model and i highly recommend you panel line it, panel lining brings out the details in the arms of this model. Actually you should pretty much panel line any part of any model that's on white plastic. 
Au revoir!
i have one too. Dont like the way they designed the pistols though. Its so plain white. They should have made like light blue runners for a section of the gun.
