So I'm going to preface this by saying, I LOVE God Gundam, and G Gundam as a whole, and I do recommend this kit. But, I'm gonna start with the bad, first. There are a LOT of stickers, there's a few pieces that keep falling off (the bottoms of the legs and the center of the head), and the legs being multiple pieces were... not pleasant to deal with. The Core Fighter's wings and pack seem to be mis-aligned, so one side is smaller than the other. And being a smaller HG model, some of the pieces are TINY. A minor nitpick is that you need to color in the center gem's ring yellow to make it look legit (though that's more of a 'me' problem because I wouldn't want to paint/ink it, in case I ruined it). Did I mention the stickers are difficult to deal with? However? It was a BLAST to build otherwise, and it's amazing to pose. The fact you can swivel the wings into the iconic Hyper Mode really ups the wow factor, and the hands being easily swapable is a huge boon. I highly recommend it for fans. Here's hoping Shining Gundam gets re-released. I would've also put an image of the God Slash out, but, I was afraid of pieces falling apart and losing them.

This is an older kit and it shows. There's not a lot of English in the instructions, and the stickers aren't even labelled with Arabic numerals. There's a ton of polycaps. There's some surprising gimmicks like a detachable backpack flyer and several opening sections. But there's also some weirdly-lacking bits... Like the forearm sections that have to be physically removed and repositioned. It's a fun build, and a unique model.
