Your Bag

Don't get me wrong, but the HG ZZ Gundam is a fantastic model kit. Unfortunately, it's somewhat disappointing with the lack of a pair of closed fists and a hand that wields a beam saber for the left arm. I salvaged the hand parts from an HGBF Tryon 3 kit and here are pictures of what it would look if it had more hand parts. Additionally, the eyes and hands have been painted since the stickers didn't look great. Aside from being a parts forming kit, I'd still recommend it if you loved the ZZ Gundam anime. However, if you're looking for its extra hand parts, you might have to pray for Bandai to restock the Tryon 3 which we may never know when.

Yes so cheap

Fun build.

Ok cons - articulation in the arms is a little tricky. Also transformation mode requires about 50% piece part switching. Haven't had the heart to take apart the beauty I just created. PROS - This thing is huge. Tall as my Unicorn Destroy mode and way chunkier. Leg articulation is a thing of beauty. You can do the can-can with this sumbirch. Also, my newer revive and spirits (2015-2020) HG kits have somewhat loose joints (for ex: my HGAC Wing Zero leg joints are slots that fall off easily). The ZZ is not falling apart even in the most extreme of poses, and the backpack connects with a polycap, which in this instance is great so you don't have to worry about the huge thing snapping off. Favorite kit I've built so far.

Color separation and proportions need some slight work but overall it is a great base to make a beautiful ZZ gundam.
