Bandai Hobby GUNDAM - HGUC 1/144 Geara Zulu Angelo Sauper's - Model Kit,Black,BAN164250

Con Bandai no ci sono mai problemi

my favorite of the Geara kits. the color scheme is awesome and it just looks amazing. it is lacking weapons but that is a minor problem IMO. seriously pick this one up its a fantastic HG kit

I bought this kit because of the unique color scheme and cool backpack accessory. I was not disappointed with the final result. This mobile suit stands a full head and shoulders above usual Zaku units from the Universal Century. Keep in mind that this kit does NOT have any white plastic parts in the box. Instead you have an pretty sizable included sheet of stickers for color correction. I personally didn’t use these and instead painted all of the detail into the parts since the detailed patterns are already molded into the plastic. I consider it a shame to cover up that raised detail with a sticker which will just get wrinkled. Consider this kit a great way to practice painting with fine-tip paint markers or whatever your preference is. Metallic chrome markers also show up wonderfully on dark plastic like this. The articulation is great in some ways but still somewhat limited in ways. The arms and shoulders a great range of motion forward even with only a single elbow joint and the big spike shoulders can be moved to look good in any pose. The hips are ball-jointed but the front skirt armor can lift quite high so this kit can do impressive front kicks or pull off a crouch on one knees to do a firing pose as pictured on the box. This kit could make nicer dynamic standing poses if the ankles were a little more articulated though. Speaking of which, I wish that the giant rifle had a better range of movement in its attachment to the backpack. It can be posed into shooting poses fine which is what it’s really meant for I suppose.PROS:- Bigger than usual for a High Grade- Movable eye segment with a tab under the head- Articulation is not crazy compared to certain Gundam HGs, but better than most other HG Zaku kits- Unique big weapon and backpack- Unusual color for a Zaku unit- Good surface detailsCONS:- No white plastic so no color separation for decals- Ball-joint hips- Limited articulation on the rifle-backpack connection- No trigger-finger hands for holding other Zaku weaponsAll in all, the Pros outweigh the Cons for me. This thing will look like a commander if you have it standing next to your other Zeon HGs due to its size and imposing silhouette and weapon. If you know how to paint, you’ll have a better result than stickers. The articulation is a mixed bag but more good than bad.

Divertente da montare, la figure è notevole, da abbinare ad una action base

really fun to build and it looks like a zaku
