Actions
Two open palms, fun-filled poses abound.
Double facepalm! Who’d knew a grunt (yes, A grunt, eventhough an elite one) could do a double facepalm with defaults hands.
This time, two closed-fist parts. Good for some fisticuff actions.
Some punching action.
The open palm helps in getting the hand pose right.
Good for some hot stabbity action.
Not many grunt MS can pull this pose.
A hands-free shield allows better accuracy and (some-what) protection.
You’d normally see this pose in classical police action dramas.
This time ala Counter-Terrorist style.
This one of the RARE occasions that my camera manages to get the lighting right.
That concludes my review of the Jesta.
Note: The backpack has two sockets for the shield binder, so far only the left-handed shield is made… Is there going to be a full-armoured (a Jesta with two shield binders) variation? Maybe…
Next up: Ambush voting result.
Hayai!!!!
Nice review~ XD
First to finish Jesta GB?
Thanks. First? Nope.
That honour should be given to Chubbybots. =D
Oh yeah.. forgot bout that uuu…
Actually, the hands were carryover from the GM releases after HGUC GM Type-C, which means Jesta was the fifth non-gundam release to have this many hands (after GM Type-C, GM Custom, GM Cannon II, and GM III).
And yes, there’s going to be a Jesta Cannon, much more awesome than the already awesome Jesta :D.

Okay… I totally missed out on the GMs…
And based on the link you gave… the two sockets ARE for the Jesta Cannon.
Naise!! You not going to do any custom paint or mod? Just curious:D
Custom paint? Mod? Hmm…. *after 20 or so seconds*
Nope! I’m an easy-modo person.
sweet, that pose is achievable 😀
and yeah, you’re the first to complete your Jesta for the GB. Chubbs got his mods ongoing, and another 2 stuck in their boxes XD
brb, sucking thumb
see.. I was thinking that chubby is modding it..
lol next thing bite thumb~
Which pose? O.o
Ohhhhh~ Another TWO more…
LoL.
@Tsuki yeap, Chubbs’s modding all three of them. he told me his plan already XD
@Bd the Jegan-Thrust
oooo ssasssy 😀
TC-337: Whut?…
That’s a pretty nice-looking suit.
Having a shoulder-mounted shield is rather interesting. I don’t think I’ve seen anything that uses a system like that before.
Very nice yes. =D
This is more of a backpack mount shield.
A mobile suit for 1337s, sweet!
Bonus points awarded for getting the “hidden” pun. XD
This is the 1337, Kshatriya is the H4X.
And H4XXOR indeed…
Lol at the double face palm XD
LoL indeed. XD
the face was exactly like my HGUC GM custom that I have. other similarities posessed by GM custom and Jesta was it was reserved as an elite unit for supporting gundams 😀
And yes, the GM Custom is an elite-issued unit, like the Jesta. =D
Just as I thought – you get to complete your Jesta before I even started mine! XD
I can’t remember when we have non-Gundam units that start to have two spread palms and closed fists. It could have been the GM Kai (aka Type C) that has started it. GM III has them too, and some of the local forum mates are jokingly advising me to do a scene with them pushing the Axis away like in CCA movie lol (since I have 9 of them WIP).
Nice review on the Jesta there~ The shield arm really is a pity I must admit. Mine is slowly being built, and while working on it I suddenly have this wild idea of getting a 4th one and spray paint it white + pearl coating, possibly give it Stark Jegan’s backpack and call it the Pegasus. But should I really plan to materialise it then it would have to be done in a much later time ^^;
Of course, ze. =D
Do a scene of pushing away Axis? D=
That’s EPIC!
Thanks, yes, the shield binder arm is… meh…
A white-coloured Jesta, Pegasus. Cooo~
And yeah, with the amount that you have, that WILL take some time. XD
Interesting looking iteration of the Jegan, although for some reason doesn’t seem very Jegan to me, wonder why? Reminds me more of the GM series really.
It could be the torso and thigh design as those looks very GM-Custom, ish. =D
He’s like a SWAT Jegan…cool stuff!
The thought of him in an MG version never crossed my mind before, but since you mention it, I’m confused on whether I should wait if there will actually be an MG version…man I hate this kind of waiting..
Indeed.
To get whether an HG or MG is quite simple, all depends on your budget and time (in doing the kit).
I’m still amazed at how UC mobile suits are packed to the teeth like its a sardine can with sardines packing heat! The mobile suits reflects how turbulent their times were i guess
Yes, even grunt units are armed to the teeth with weapons, and turbulent times yes as those MS have to be versatile in their roles.
Problem is… grunts gets owned many times over due to writers/plot-armour/
JebusYamatomain character. =Pnice review~
i plan to buy jesta too when it arrived in my country
You won’t be sorry. =D
Good detailing and posing ability in one good package here. =D
I like the rockets inside the shield thing. They really do arm them to the teeth huh? I bet if they could somehow put machine guns inside the rockets they would.
The built-in missiles are a standard with most late-UC MS. Why put machine guns when you can do a spread-shot blast for them.
Multi-kills FTW~!
I just picked this guy up last Saturday. Too bad I can only assemble it by January as all my tools are back in hometown. ;_; That, plus the GM-III and Jegan ECOAS Type are my recent purchases. Long live Earth Federation!
Oho.. oh~… That’s a downer… Next year… T-T
Umm… none of my grunts are Feddies any more. XD
