If you really really like the design, it's worth the money. If you're looking for a fun build from a third party model company, there are much better options. For the money, you get a lot of stuff, including really cool weapons, effects parts, base, etc. And it's overall pretty big. HOWEVER, in general, almost everything in the kit feels rushed or not quite finished in terms of design, engineering, and manufacturing. The nubs are terrible, even with as much undergating as this kit has, especially on the painted gold parts. Some nubs are literally CENTIMETERS thick, especially on the effects parts. ALMOST EVERY NUB ENDS ON A CHAMFER. And the undergating is so backwards on a lot of parts. For instance, the scabbard will have 7, but 2 are undergated, and those 2 go inside another part anyway. The remaining 5 were placed off a ledge, so you have to sand that tiny ledge for a flush look. Lots of joints are poorly designed and can snap while you're putting it together. Notably, the shoulder pauldrons and ankles. The chest mouth gimmick is floppy, although it looks cool. Lots of this kit looks cool, but fails on closer inspection. Things like the skirt armor and pauldrons are unique and fun, but like in so many other places, there are interferences where things can't move smoothly past each other, so stuff falls off while posing. The pre-assembled POM frame is squeaky but functional for the most part, as long as you just want to have the kit standing still inside its included base. It can hold its large weapons well, but the hand designs are terrible. The movable thumb doesn't have enough clearance, it's difficult to get around the handles of things. I could go on and on, but overall, it just seems like they rushed this thing to get it into the market. Maybe the Tengu will be better, but I'll put my money into other Chinese mecha model companies that put more care into their kits, like In Era+, YoloPark, and Meng. With all that negative, though, it's still a big, good-looking kit with a lot of stuff. And all the negatives can be fixed with some cement, paint, and patience.
