THE CRIMSON COMET

A trip down memory lane... The Wing series started the Gundam/GunPla craze for boys of my generation. This kit, even unassembled, holds bias to my heart. Even with my anticipation for the RG flaws, I know this will be a monumental experience. Ahhh the uncontrollable tension building... I present: Wing Gundam Zero EW! 360 "WING" No polycaps! Yay! Oh dear.... Beautiful! Pew Pew pew! Target locked 99.99% accuracy! Sword GET I'm surprised it can do a kneeling pose with no problems Atmospheric entry: Operation Meteor commence Pew pew pew Beam spam turn - RIP grunt units... Ore wa GUNDAM! Pros: Finally! An RG inner frame that works! Solid Cool wings Cons: Bit too simple for an RG Props to Bandai for pulling off this icon! Solidity is the surprise here with the enforced arms connec...

Last leg of my 2014 HG project, my favorite in the GBF series - X Maoh! Sun gimme POWAAAAHHH Pros: Haven't found degradation with its joint strength despite playing around with it a lot Cannon / backpack articulation is superb Cons: Legs attached by a ball joint hinders a little articulation Feet range of motion is limited (but solid) Lots of stickers This is the most cool of the bunch I have purchased! Would have loved if there was a Build Strike Plavsky Wing :( I see the HG's are drastically improved with my recent purchases so getting one that is manufactured post 2012 would satisfy GunPla collectors that love toy photography. Acceptable color separation, articulation, and gimmicks put the HG's a little bit closer to figures. Plus they are a lot cheaper.

Subjectively the 2nd coolest MS kit in the GBF series! It's on my favorite color too! Looks badass PEEEEEW Pros: Transformation Solid overall Cons: Right arm got loose due to weight of gun Didn't bother transforming the guy. I broke the skirt maybe because of the lacquer thinner which made the plastic brittle :( This is a fantastic kit coming from a fan that started Gundam-verse from the Wing series. Fenice is THE fan service for someone who grew up in the 90's. Cool! ...But the coolest is X Maoh :p
