I built the RG Sazabi a few weeks ago and never posted it because I planned to do decals and stuff. But those are gonna take a while still and I’m doing other kits, so here’s the first round.
The Sazabi is very cool, and is a big boy. The shield is a bit wonky and likes to fall out in lots of poses, but there’s so much articulation and greebles and things here… it’s amazing. I’m preparing to have a Zaku vs Gundam display with this vs ν Gundam at the front of each side, and the sheer scale difference makes an impression.
The inner frame was really fun this time, I intentionally built the whole thing and then did armor from one side to the other just because it seemed fun, even though the instructions have a very different order they want you to go in.
Yet again I’m sad the cockpit isn’t functional. Gimme cockpit gimmicks. Maybe you need MGs and PGs for that, but I’m still gonna ask for them.
