About this deal

Although this is the third MG kit I’ve undertaken, this will be my biggest build yet and certainly the heaviest by far with the addition of the metal frame. An extremely good (near-perfect, in all honesty) model kit rightly recognized as a masterpiece by the Gunpla community. A must-have for anyone who wants to accelerate human evolution through space migration by dropping your evil ex-girlfriend's old asteroid base onto Earth and subsequently causing a nuclear winter ? If using matte/flat-finish top coat, it is advisable not to spray on the clear/translucent parts - can be done by masking or spraying top coat while the said parts are separated. Later reissues of the Gunpla from September 2018 onwards will feature a blue-colored Bandai Spirits logo. Later reprints from mid-2022 will also feature a Bandai Namco logo.

There are some challenges, like fitting all of the pins and pylons up exactly between two opposing shell parts. No different than the difficulties you’d expect with their plastic counterparts, but obviously since there’s no give in the metal whatsoever it just takes a bit of finesse to get it right. Aside from that, some of the plastic pieces are an extremely tight fit into the holes on the metal parts, but while that’s frustrating going together it will be for the best in the long run. It’s also very easy to cross thread the cheap screws included in the metal kit, so it’s worth taking the extra steps to spin them left a few turns before sinking them. This absolute unit of a model kit is every Gundam builders dream, words cannot describe how much fun I had in assembling this kit.To date, this Gunpla has yet to be redecoed into the "GPB Color" version of the unit from Gunpla Builders Beginning G. The soles are masked for fine iron color coding. The vernier is color-coded with silver inside and iron outside. Not only was this kit gifted to me by a friend along with several others, and the one my 8-year-old has been most excited for because “it’s so buff,” but it represents a few firsts for me in the short time I’ve been enjoying this hobby;

Since it comes with a flat hand, you can reproduce the reloading effect by attaching it to the barrel grip of the beam shot rifle. First, obviously, this leads to Amuro beating the everloving shit out of Char. In mobile suits on an equal footing, Amuro goes absolutely beast mode and stomps him into the dirt. When he tries to eject (the Sazabi has a basketball-shaped escape pod in the head), Amuro just grabs the thing and dribbles it around for a while. There is basically no stupider move in the entire Universal Century than trying to step to Amuro Goddamn Ray, a lesson that Char should have remembered from their showdowns over the years, but evidently needs to be re-taught regularly. The Hasegawa hologram finish sheet is attached to the forehead sensor, and it is painted in clear green from above. The detail of the mono eye is improved with the aurora and SP plate of the GEM dome which is a high queue part. Since the product has a limited production run. When the number produced has been reached, we will stop accepting applications for reservations.Another three hours of decal application and, two more ripped decals, I’ve only managed to apply about 30 or so decals.
