The machine cannon raises the head along with it… Yea. The faceplate is actually a little loose and can move a little to either side but I would say this is only a very minor issue. Quirks quirks quirks… the most annoying is the fact that the faceplate can move! I’ve never seen that on any models before. I have a feeling that this model was designed for only that particular pose in mind hence it’s well executed but thing looks a little awkward doing anything else. The infamous Twin Buster Rifle shot from Endless Waltz can be replicated with ease thanks to the shoulders being able to prop forward. I’m not fond of the big rectangular ones that comes with the Zeta 2.0 and co. I like the base it comes with because it’s simple, space saving, and gets the job done. ![]() The rubber feathers definitely add to the “angel wing” feel when its resting on the floor. While the HG counterpart needs additional pieces to “expand” the rear wings, the MG model actually have all the parts slide inside the outer parts and stays hidden while the front/side wings are now able to expan itself in three different segments. The whole model has this “pulled back” look which I like since it adds to the effect of the action pose. As with the HG model, the MG also retains a long neck but slightly less noticeable. The way the legs are designed and styled seems like it’s better suited for “feminine” poses (which I find true). The model can pose elegantly but nothing drastic. As expected, it’s also a back-heavy model but the wings will be able to support it so its okay. A quirk is that the Search Orb on its chest is a foil sticker instead of a gem like the HG model and it looks a bit cheap with the clear plastic in front of it.Īs for the completed model itself, you will probably want to put more effort into cleaning off the spots that were connected to the runners because they are an eye-sore in plain sight (you can even see them in the pictures). I didn’t do it because I think all the grey lines would make the wings look weird and I wanted the “pure/angelic” look so I left it plain white. Panel lining the wings is a matter of taste preference in this model. It’s a really a great design of engineering. The angel wing assembly is nothing hard either just follow the lines properly and you won’t end up with wrong overlapping or sliding pieces as that is what the entire assembly is based on. This Gundam is particularly slender and small in every dimension, making this a small model overall without the wings. ![]() Nothing particularly difficult to take note of. The highlight of this model is the angel wings assembly and everything else is easy MG inside-to-outside work. I bought this model to replace my aging HG 1/100 Wing Gundam Zero Custom Special Operations Type. ![]() Dream came true in 2004 but not as perfect as I’ve thought it would be. Back when there was only the HG 1/100 Wing Gundam models, I’ve always wished for a MG version.
