    Question
    R the legs compatible with the origin?
    Answer
    Unfortunately the two versions use different types of connections at the hip and thigh, so it wouldn't be possible to use the 3.0's legs on the origin or vice versa without significant custom work

    Question
    does this kit have pre-molded hands, or does it have independant hands?

    It has movable-finger-type hands. No pre-posed options in the box.

    A nice challenge.

    A fun build, though a bit of a challenge at times. Poses good, but some parts are loose, mainly the shoulder armor, waist connection, and hip armor. I also had a problem with two of the peices on the arms.

    Oddly frustrating

    Don’t get me wrong, the MG 3.0 is an amazing kit, and I totally recommend it, but it’s just not perfect. The head, body, core fighter, and feet build fine, but the arms, legs, and especially the hands are really not that good. The arm joints are a nightmare to build. One bit on the legs gets too much pressure put on it when it’s attached parallel to the foot. And the fingers are so bad I had to museum putty them in and they still pop out regularly. Overall, highly recommend, just know there’s some issues.

    Looks good but...

    Looks good, but it's a hand grenade. Overall doesn't feel very solid. Some parts of the building process can be frustrating. For example, the metallic stickers for the arms will not stay on no matter how well you put them on/coat over them, due to them being on the joints. If finished look is all that matters to you, this one is fine. I personally prefer the MG Ver Ka.
