Guide to Bandai High Grade (HG) Logo
This is a beginner guide for understanding the meaning behind Bandai's Gunpla High Grade logo. If you are completely unfamiliar with Gundam TV show series and/or only interested in the Gunpla design rather than to watch the related anime, you may find this guide useful.
In Bandai's Gunpla based on the world of Gundam, they categorized the design into several grades. The Grade simply mean the sizes and the difficulties to assembling it. A quick guide to Bandai Gunpla most common grades you will find in the store:
First Grade - scale 1/144
basic parts and earliest production, recommended for children at least age 5 up
High Grade - scale 1/144
usually about five runners (A,B,C,D,E) and takes about 30 minutes to 2 hours to build it, recommended for children at least age 8 years above. About 13 to 16 cm in real height. This grade has the most number of models, there must be about more than 400 models being produced under this size and scale.
Real Grade - scale 1/144
the latest grade from Bandai and introduced in 2010. It is basically a Master Grade in details but comes only in 1/144 sizes as in High Grade. About 13 to 16 cm in height.
Master Grade - scale 1/100
the parts already has skeletal frame. More details than HG. About 17 to 20 cm in height.
Perfect Grade - scale 1/160
This if for hardcore Gunpla enthusiast. Real details in all parts. About 30 cm. As per 2013, there are only about 20 models being produced.
you can read more on Wikipedia
I found the "medium"-level called High Grade is their most popular and most numbers in production. If you confused about the meaning behind their HG logo, this is the Guide to Bandai's Gunpla High Grade (HG) Logo, found in their box cover.
The most popular High Grade line is HGUC, about 179 models as per year 2014
The latest line is High Grade Build Fighter based on the current Gundam Build Fighter series.
As the time of writing, Gundam HGCC Correct Century is not yet released and only a prototype of Gundam Turn A model being displayed for public, it is scheduled to released in April 2014.

Gundam Gaddess 1/144
Model : GNZ-007 Gaddess
Scale : 1/144
HG Gundam 00
Buy it here
One of my favorite cyan colored unit is Gundam Gaddess. Got a nice model shown in Singapore Gundam Fiesta around year 2010. Photo taken by digital pocket camera Kodak Easyshare, with macro zooming and local existing lighting. A bit blurring because I wasn't have enough standing stability over the crowd.

Gundam Cherudim GN-006
Model: Cherudim Gundam GN-006 Trans-Am
Scale: 1/44
HG Gundam 00
Buy at Amazon here
Cherudim Trans Am Mode Mini Review
Bought this model from Jakarta's Expo back in 2010. The model's pink metallic color is not very appealing to me. This is due to the shinny material that make it slightly difficult to photograph. There are also several color alternatives here. In construction, Cherudim is not really steady in articulation. Her "V-Fin" is snap with only few mm, making it easily falls apart. I found the balance stand is also hardly can achieved without careful adjustment. The visor is also a problem, and it is even broken which I need to glue it back again, this is because the transparent visor material is less sturdy than the 'handler'.
GN-006 Cherudim Gundam (aka Cherudim Gundam, Cherudim) is the successor unit to GN-002 Gundam Dynames in season two of Mobile Suit Gundam 00, piloted by Lockon Stratos.

Boxset and graphic art
The monochromatic pink gives the model a "dark" feeling.
Cherudim with Blue Destiny, shoot with Canon 10-22mm wide lens, trying to explore some dramatic point of view and see the distortion produced.
