Don't expect much from this guy, it's a 20+ year old kit and paint is a must if you want this kit to look complete.

I received this gunplan as a christmas gift and absolutely loved it as an introduction to the hobby. I broke like two pieces, but they're sturdy enough and big enough so you can put them together with some glue. Some pieces were too soft and moving, I learnt how to make them stay in their position. Yes, the coloring isn't great but I started investigating about panel lining and gundam markers. Overall, this is my favorite gunpla to date and I call it "Zephy" - if you want someone to fall in love with Gunpla, this is the entry piece, no doubt!

I got it earlier somewhere else but they didn't have the review feature, so I'm writing something here. Color separation of this kit is really lackluster, with a lot of places in wrong colors and a lot of painting is needed to have the model look reasonably accurate. Most annoyingly, the beam saber has no color or parts separation and is completely white. Articulation is also pretty poor; the hips are on ball-socket joints, greatly limiting leg articulation. This kit is a perfect example of "early HGUC syndrome". Be prepared for the extra works if you want this model to look good.
