Your Bag

This was my first re/100 so I'm not sure if its up to par with the line, but it really is something in between a high grade and a master grade. The build was very easy, articulation is mostly good, the proportions and aesthetics are great. However, it does have its own host of issues. It looks better in person straight built than even the product images, in my opinion. Specifically, the feet are attached to the legs in a really odd fashion that limit their articulation pretty severely. They come off very easily when you try to move them around. The leg armor also limits their articulation even further, and unfortunately this does limit non-standing poses pretty bad. The other more minor issues this kit has is it can't hold the clay bazooka at all (the other weapons came with special pegs on them to make them fit, this one oddly did not) and an absolute TON of polycaps. But these problems aside, the aesthetics and the fact that we actually got a 1/100 dijeh make up for all of this and more.

Alright, so I bought a trio of these to make a Federation ground team similar to the ones shown in 08th MS Team. I was expecting essentially the same build the HG Gundam Ground Types use but with a GM head and backpack. This is mostly what I got, but Bandai fixed pretty much all the major flaws the Gundam had. They heavily improved the torso joint, improved the articulation of the ab crunch, and fixed a lot of the loose joint issues overall. While the GM/GM will probably remain the GM king, the GM Ground Type is just as solid and probably the best kit in the UC has to offer so far.

Great kit, as expected from a TO Zaku kit. Definitely a must if you're building a Zeon ground squad.

Great kit overall, only issue is the dreaded torso joint. As others has said, it's a weird polycap/peg combo that doesn't quite fit or work.

I was able to cover the entire HGUC Gerbera Tetra's armor with one marker and with plenty of paint to spare.
