Product Information

I started this kit with zero experience with any kind of customization or finishing. I was a snap-builder through and through. But after seeing the scale with this I started to realize this kit deserved more than I was yet capable of. I didn’t go crazy by any means, but I am extremely happy with my choices for finishing.I know I keep yammering about how heavy these metal parts are, but now that it’s 95% assembled, I really can’t stress enough what a dense piece this is. Color and form of the product may differ from the actual product and what is seen on screen depending on monitor settings. 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.

To put that in more concrete terms, the Sazabi at 1/144 absolutely towers over almost all other suits in the same scale. It’s nearly the same size as an average 1/100. I don’t have one handy to compare, but the MG Sazabi Ver.Ka is almost as big as a smaller 1/60 PG. Funnel. The inside is painted in iron colors. The exterior red is also divided into two colors, the feather and the base.The detail of the mega particle cannon in the abdomen is improved by embedding a twin pipe of hi Q parts in the center. The left and right round molds on top of that are embedded with Evolve Works negative mold metal parts. We’ve talked about Amuro Ray, and we’ve talked about Kamille Bidan, and now we have to talk about the connective tissue that binds them together. Other than uhh, the direct connection they have, from working together and knowing each other. Look, I didn’t think this bit all the way through, but roll with me. Rival to Amuro, mentor to Kamille, it’s everyone’s favorite ice cold psychopath from outer space: the Red Comet himself, Char Aznable. I built this kit over the course of two sessions, the first being nearly six hours and the second about an hour and a half. I don't recommend building this kit in this way; this build really deservesto be savored. 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. There’s just a lot of everything, to be honest, because the Sazabi is a lot of mobile suit. It contains almost twice as much Gundam per Gundam as any other Gundam. The robot, she is quite large.

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 ? After enjoying episode 7 of Last of Us with the wife this evening I sat down to power through the rest of the legs with the goal of at least getting this behemoth standing on its own feet before the end of the weekend. This is the first time I’ve introduced non-Bandai parts into a build (the DOT workshop metal frame kit from USAGundamStore.com)

The RG Sazabi's manual begins the build at the feet and works its way up the body. I'll follow the same pathway for the purpose of this review.
