Nice kit, but the shield is hard to hold due to it only attaching in the hand, and the bazooka is hard to get the trigger hand around it. Otherwise a nice kit all around.

One of the most awesome kits of its time. It's a fun build, but it's not as easy as your typical HG kit so "beware". It's decent OOTB ( out of the box ) but it doesn't look exactly as what we saw from the anime. You don't have to go super crazy though on painting just to achieve it... I'll spoil you with some parts that you have to paint . Examples are the yellow vents on the shield as well as the gray gear looking part on the front skirt.. Articulation is not bad for a bulky kit.. The atomic bazooka is a little bit tricky to maneuver cause of how it's positioned but at the end of the day, it's an awesome weapon of mass destruction. My only gripe is the humongous shield and because of its sheer size it gives the arm a hard time. Now it could be just my kit but in any case, you have to be creative to pose it... Overall it's a great kit that has a lot of good side. I'm happy cause my RG 1/144 GP01 FB has an opponent now... :)
Peace!

There's no real problem with the build itself, it was easy enough as long as you can decipher pictograms or you are familiar with gunpla. The only gripes one could give are in the aesthetic: limited hand movement due to it being fused for holding weapons and the head is taller than wider. I'll still be buying a few more of this kit though.

Easier assembling than I expected. Strong body made the stand a little weak. Overall is very good.

Very nice! It's my fave gundam, needs a little paint to look lkem orginal but it's easy stuff
