This exclusive MGEX model is launching only at The Gundam Base stores in Japan.
Just when we thought the Master Grade Extreme (MGEX) Strike Freedom couldn't get more premium, Bandai Spirits has unveiled the ultimate collector's piece. The MGEX 1/100 Strike Freedom Gundam [TWILIGHT COATING] is officially launching on December 13, 2025, exclusively at The Gundam Base stores in Japan.
A Premium Finish
The standard MGEX is known for its "Gold Frame" expression. This new "Twilight Coating" version takes it a step further, draping the mobile suit in a beautiful, specially processed white finish that gives it an ethereal, high-end appearance. The combination of the metallic inner frame and this new coating creates a stunning contrast.

The Price of Luxury
The most shocking detail is the price tag: 66,000 Yen (Tax Included). To put that in perspective, the standard retail MGEX Strike Freedom costs around 15,400 Yen. This special edition commands a premium of over 400%, likely due to the expensive coating processes applied to the runners. Please note that prices are approximate and may vary depending on the retailer and location.

Extreme Exclusivity
Acquiring one will be a challenge even for locals. Sales are limited to Gundam Base Tokyo, Fukuoka, and Satellite stores. Furthermore, only "THE GUNDAM BASE MEMBERS" (Full Members) can purchase it, and a lottery system for store entry will be in effect on launch day.
The new "Twilight Coating" enhances every detail, creating a stunning collector's piece.
This is a trophy piece for the ultra-dedicated collector. For the rest of us, the standard MGEX remains the pinnacle of Gunpla engineering and is actually available to purchase.
The unique coating is applied to all runners, ensuring premium detail from every angle.
