SRW OG HG Non Scale Gespenst


 It appears that Bandai are keep invested on SRW series and for the third SRW Model kit, we are getting Gespenst and it will be Gilliam's to boot with! HG Gespenst will be scheduled for May 2022 release with 4000 Yen price tag, so far Bandai kept their SRW Model Kit series at consistent price range for some reason. For Bandai's version of Gespenst, the armaments is roughly about the same compared to the Kotobukiya including Beam Rifle, Saber, Split Missile and Slash Ripper.

 Gilliam's version of Gespenst is rather special since it is the precursor of the mass produced version Gespenst Mk-II. In terms of specs, Gespenst had slightly better performance compared to Mk-II but it is the Gilliam's exceptional piloting skill that makes this Personal Trooper able to stand on par with other SRW OG Pilot with stronger Mecha. Gilliam himself is an enigmatic figure who belongs to elite squad called Aggressors along with Zengar, Kai and Elzam which are some of the best pilots in OG Saga. In OG series Gilliam mostly absent in the story doing intel works and i recall that he was former antagonist in one of the Banpresto's older game.

 In SRW OGs Gespenst is rather weak unit used by one of the better pilots, Gilliam will use Gespenst Mk-II RV later on as the upgrade which is quite decent unit on Real Robot side. Personally i am quite surprised that this version of Gespenst came out early since i thought Daizengar or other popular OG unit would have better shot to secure the third slot from Bandai for SRW OG Model kit series.
