HG 1/144 08th MS team Gundam VS Zaku II set (1996)

hello gundam fans! I am here to review the kits from 08th MS team OVA series. The HG 1/144 08th MS team Gundam VS Zaku II set (1996)

This set is really impressive and good for starters, It has variety of features that you cannot see on the latest  Bandai HG kits has released.


The Zaku has some details inside it's chest/cockpit




Panel lining is really good! very nice for an early release of gunpla kits.


Though the Gundam kit, is not that good in terms of proportions and articulation, the materials are really in high quality and you won't regret buying one.









PROS
  1. impressive details for a 1996 kit set.
  2. large accessories selections from swords to mini guns and to bazookas.
  3. high quality materials, won't break easily unlike the latest kits.
  4. builder friendly, parts snaps together without any problem at all.
CONS
  1. articulation is poor.
  2. some of the proportions are not that good.
  3. molding of some parts are off, sometimes you have to sand or cut some parts of it to make it even.

Thanks for viewing!
