MG Gouf Custom WIP 01
Quickly snap fitted my MG Gouf Custom during the weekend ^^ After working on two HGs in a row, i was floored by seeing the amount of parts in a MG again lol but it was incredibly fun to put this guy together.
*…Is my Gouf a goof?*
Bass string + tape + wet sanding = ^_^
*note to self: next time do 10 pieces at a time, attempting 20 was too much!*
Still needs another round of sanding though… running low on the good rough stuff p320.
Love the diagrams and his weapons.
Havent touched the tubing for the waist yet. I have to say im impressed by the bad ass intimidating presence of this Gouf Custom! Interesting that the joints use screws too o.O
Im planning to do some battle damage and maybe a minor Guyver mod with elbow blades = G-Gouf Custom Lol
Oh, i started this guy so that i could use his box to store all my gundams in 😛

Also, I found my old badly painted little figures that came with the kits lol i have Relena and Mariemaia too somewhere.
This is no Zaku, boy. No Zaku. XD
Ouch… The piping is a nightmare… But once done, ho ho boy… A badass indeed. 😀

Still unsure if I should get this (weapon) or the 2.0 (articulation)..
Buying both is a no-no.. I won’t pay that much for a weapon xD
Arein said this on March 29, 2010 at 4:20 pm |
his articulations is very limited XD but im still happy with this so far.
i thought i saw a conversion kit before for the gouf 2.0 to make it into a gouf custom, if thats true there is a possible option.
rockleelotus said this on March 30, 2010 at 7:30 pm |
arGH!!! Gouf custom!!! Looks wise this still wins over the 2.0 gouf and plus…that shield gatling is begging me to pull that trigger!!
Can’t wait to see you give it the guyver treatment 😀 Bio armor is badass man with the elbow blades!!Looks like you are into modding overdrive with all these stuff 😀
chubbybots said this on March 29, 2010 at 5:06 pm |
definitely! thats why i still chose him over 2.0 gouf.
so much more is possible with modding but very hard to do t right lol will have to wait a while before i start on him though ^^;
rockleelotus said this on March 30, 2010 at 7:33 pm |
Ah, a Gouf.
is that the real eye for Gouf? Or the fancy eye accessory I used to have during in my primary school?
divinelight said this on March 29, 2010 at 6:11 pm |
lol nope thats not his real eye just having some fun with the googly eyes again 😛
rockleelotus said this on March 30, 2010 at 7:34 pm |
lol at first looking at the first picture i was like nani?
this kind of thing for me will probably take all day to assemble ^^”looks cool!

haha i thought it was very funny thing 😛
MGs do take a while, of course part of the fun is also in the assembly so that might work out for you! ^^

ren said this on March 30, 2010 at 7:39 am |
i went full speed with this guy, no time to waste ^^;; but i didnt do any sanding except for the tubing on the head, it will take me days too if i started to sand the nubs XD
now your unicorn can walk! 😛 take your time and make it good, he has more small parts than my gouf custom lol
rockleelotus said this on March 30, 2010 at 7:43 pm |
Googly eyes! XD
The Gouf Custom is one level over the original. Too bad the difference in design probably makes Bandai relucant to reuse the Gouf 2.0 mold.
evolution said this on March 30, 2010 at 8:06 am |
giant googly eye seems very fitting for gouf/zaku lol
yup, the small differences here make a big difference to me though. would be cool if there was a 2.0 of him, till then i will prolly attempt to mod mines to match the 2.0 standards!
rockleelotus said this on March 30, 2010 at 7:48 pm |
he looks so mean! how many hours does it take to snap-fit it? I never had an MG before but all i know is that there are just too many parts..
h4mster said this on March 30, 2010 at 8:48 am |
thats why i like him 😀 with sanding of only the head tubing i think it took about 6-7 hours over 2 days? not sure though, i was watching/listening to some documentaries at the same time lol.
MGs have ton more parts compared to HGs. that also means cleaning it up/painting will take long ^^;
rockleelotus said this on March 30, 2010 at 7:55 pm |
looking forward for your battle damagaed for this suckers 😀
wanna paint my figures freebies too I have heroo,lacus,lowe,kira,rei ayanami,etc lol
moemoekyun said this on March 30, 2010 at 4:54 pm |
i wonder what kind of damage i should do! ^^ well i have plenty of time to think about it, this project is on hold.
lol those tiny figures are hard to paint, i made their faces look pretty funny! XD
rockleelotus said this on March 30, 2010 at 7:58 pm |
I LOL at the first pic. Zaku look silly with that eye. What is that snoopy doing inside the last pic?
LEon said this on March 31, 2010 at 10:49 pm |
imagine being attacked by a group of zaku with googly eyes lol XD
snoopy is secret gundam pilot!
rockleelotus said this on April 6, 2010 at 2:41 pm |
ahaha, all the enery cables come in seperated parts, that’s MG for you 😀
Gouf custom is a manly unit! Norris was cool
heathorn said this on April 1, 2010 at 8:51 am |
unlimited nubs works! XD
norris was a very cool and noble guy, one of the reasons why i like the gouf custom so much ^^
rockleelotus said this on April 6, 2010 at 2:48 pm |
ah.. so this isn’t the ver 2.0
but still it’s cool..
especially the shield..
MaftyNavue said this on April 2, 2010 at 9:13 am |
articulation sucks but this still looks better than the 2.0, cant go wrong with the weaponry too ^^
rockleelotus said this on April 6, 2010 at 2:59 pm |

rockleelotus said this on July 30, 2010 at 10:22 pm |
Haha, I lol’d on the Zaku popping out of the cockpit more over the first pic.
