Your Bag

The original Core Gundam found in the Earthtree and other PLANETS kits was an incredible little High Grade beast, which was fun both with and without armor. The Core Gundam II visually upgrades the design, and it looks fantastic, but it isn't without its issues. The waist is unbearably loose, and the joints tend to lose their grip easily. On top of this, the half-jet sticking out of its back looks awkward in both modes, and functions much better as a shield. The Uraven armor itself is fairly solid, especially with its multiple remote bits. Overall, Core Gundam is great no matter what, but I say that the Earthtree Gundam is a more solid package.

This kit is great in concept, but leaves a lot to be desired in execution. The body upgrades to the Build Strike are welcome, and stand out immediately with the striking pinkish-red color. However, I have found that the pieces in the shoulders are not very tight, resulting in the lower section drooping frequently. The real problems, however, lie in the Galaxy Booster. The wings are difficult to pose correctly, droop often, and the parts holding them in are prone to falling off altogether, leading the wings to fall off as well. Aside from that, the lack of weapons on the booster makes it feel somewhat empty, as does its plain color. Overall, these problems are not the end of the world, but they are persistent. In general, I would say to only get this kit if you love the Build Strike and want to collect all of its forms. Otherwise, the Build Strike Full Package and Star Build Strike are more solid kits giving you more bang for your buck, as well as the EG Build Strike Exceed Galaxy.

This is the best option part set I've ever seen. It's got it all: modular parts, flight mode pieces, shield parts, beam sabers, guns, modular joints in varying sizes, and a pair of awesome dual-use weapons! If you're working on customs, this is your go-to accessory. With all the parts in here, there's sure to be a useful piece for any type of Gunpla you want to build!

The SP-00-N will never become loose, as that would imply that it is imperfect, and that is simply not true.
