![]() ![]() Many extra textures are added into the design in the molding of the parts. Details: it has an amazing sense of detail. Not to worry, there are still plenty of parts to build! And for as many points of articulation that it has, it may be for the best to make it less complicated. Again, it requires patience to use well, since parts have a tendency to fall off. Each joint features multiple hinges and pivots to more closely mirror human flexibility. Articulation: absolutely unmatched! No other model has nearly as many points of articulation, and the joints are very stable (not too loose). In short, it's more model than action figure. It requires a significant amount of patience to pose. Articulation: the number of points of articulation, coupled with the tendency for things to fall off of it, makes it more difficult than MG models to pose. I personally would have liked to have a go at assembling it, but I've built dozens of of MG models. It's another problem that could be fixed with some super glue, but this fix would mean that whatever pose you chose would have either no hands or use the cannons exclusively. Grip: another common problem with the product is that the grip isn't strong enough to support the beam cannon. The product that I have didn't seem to have as many problems as others, but I still decided to use small amounts of super glue to keep pieces in tact. This is a common gripe among reviewers, but everyone's model seems to have different pieces that fall off. Armor: there are a number of fixtures that tend to fall off of the frame. And the addition of the shield and Bird Mode design add even more dimension to the suit! However, for all of it's appeal, it does have some challenges. This product has a phenomenal look to it! It's size and frame are comparable to the Master Grade version of the product, but the details in the design put its visual appeal well beyond its counterparts. Package Size/Weight: 59.0 x 32.0 x 11.First of all: Wow. ![]() This is a very complex model kit and, as our "Skill Level 4" rating indicates, is not recommended for beginner modelers. ![]() No English text but the diagrams are self-explanatory. The second, the CONSTRUCTION manual, has the actual assembly instructions and details. The first, the INSTRUCTION manual (text is in Japanese), has numerous photos of the kit in various construction steps plus painting guide, history of the unit and the Battle Zero unit, cross sections, and an interview with the designer of the kit. Comes boxed in three separate inner boxes plus a special box that contains the 14 individual "feathers" made from plastic-coated thin metal, plus the metal joint parts, screws, and other goodies. Locking systems provide stability so things don't flap around like they tend to do on the Master Grade kit. Comes with two beam sabers and two huge beam rifles. Opening panels on the head, chest, and more. Full inner mechanism detail on all limbs. Two different locations (eyes and chest) light up on the finished kit. About 30 locations secured by metal screws. ![]() The most impressive model in Bandai's history is finally here! This kit has too much to list in detail, so please be willing to settle for the highlights:ģ0-plus runners of parts (670 total pieces). This item is a posable, Perfect-Grade injection-plastic kit of an item from the Gundam universe. ![]()
