For the Review
My thoughts about the kit is that this is my first time to build a kit again since my absence to gunpla in over a year or two. Because I focus to much attention in action figures and other toy lines. So I give it my best shot to build a kit again.
I've been liking these kit so much because of its great articulation and the astig factor because it is an upgraded ver. of Exia. This is a fun to build kit. The kit building is pretty simple and straightforward there are just some little small parts to be concerned off. Small parts like the glass or a clear plastic that you'll put in the BFG eyesight. The left and right fins beside the head I guess that's it. The kit is pretty solid thou but depends on the one who is building it lol.
His BFG is cool wish I know how to paint it or customized it thou. Also its GN Sword is also cool you can retract its GN Sword back to its normal form like ala swish knife. You can strap his BFG on his left or right shoulders the one with a fin that you can remove and put it in there. Astrea has two guns the small one and the big one lol. It also comes with two open palm fist and two extra sabers the pink ones. It also comes in with a GN Shield

The only problem that I have experienced building this kit or when it is already build and your gonna pose it for picture. Is the left peg of the feet the circle ones that connected on the hips or waist of the kit.
That peg part is a little bit loose and when you connect it it didn't catch on the pressure when you are hardly pressing it to connect. Its like the connectors is pretty much out of proportion to connect. But eitherway I manage to connect that one thou. I'm just a little bit of cautious when I'm posing the kit.
Either way forgive my panel lining of the kit lol I think I've over used it and sometimes my panel lining is a little bit of scattered lol. Need some more practice on it. I only use a Pilot Tech v5 and v7 tech pens for panel linings.
The shoulders can move a little bit forward and backwards. The figure can really make a good genuflect pose. These is were the Hazel custom stands out. The Hazel Custom stands out because of its excellent gimmicks or accessories.
So the verdict: I'll give it 9/10 a must buy kit I can't wait for HG00 1/100 Gundam 00 to arrive ....
