MS-09 Dom/MS-09R Rick Dom (2006 version) – Assembled

Friday, February 6th, 2009

As you already aware from my previous post, this kit has some pretty interesting innovation around the way its head is constructed. Let us have a closer look at the assembled model (as always, not painted at this stage).

First of all, it should be noted that this Rick Dom is slightly shorter than its “little” brother – Rick Dom II (this fact is compensated by the length of its bazooka :) – I simply could not resist commenting on it… again :) ). Also, its general appearance leaves the impression of a hunched one.

But enough talking, see for yourself (click on the pictures below to see their larger versions):

Finally, I’ve got to write this post. Apologies for the long silent 6 months to everyone, who came back for more… and did not find it.

So let’s get back to Rick Dom II – you can see what it looks like once assembled (again, no stickers and paint applied) on the pictures below. What I especially like about it – is its overall build – this easily makes Rick Dom II the best looking one among all other Doms in existence. Additional fuel tanks on its back perfectly balance Dom’s silhouette and the absence of spare ammunition clips scattered everywhere (as is the case with MS-09F) also adds to a very “clean” and mean look:

UC :: MS-09F Domtropen (2000 version) – Assembled

Here we go… Let’s have a look at these assembled but not painted MS-09F Doms. Coming first is the oldest one — released in 2000 — just to remind you :) ). I do not know if plastic can age over time, but that is exactly the impression I got while putting both 2000 and 2002 versions together. I already mentioned that some kits’ dark blue molds are somehow more brittle than details of other colours, but in case of these Universal Century models everything seemed to be rather fragile… Go figure. Anyway, this is how its front and rear look like (to view the picture in more detail click on it):
