Its been months, but I finally got and built the kit that got me into this whole hobby to begin with: Gundam Lfrith!

Definitely a good introduction to how Gunpla are built going forward (Developed even further with how Aerial looks as a Model Kit). I'm kinda glad I didn't get this earlier when I had a shakier hand and cheaper tools. Plus its actually pretty simple to assemble the shield together compared to Aerial.

Still need to order more stands/action bases because a suit like this needs to be in midair to really sell it's poses/weapons. Plus I want to get a pic of it space clashing with the Beguir-Beu. Need to also track down one of those G-witch exclusive stands that lets you pose the GUND-Bits on their own little stands.

I started listening to Revolutionary Girl Utena recently and I knew that MS Gundam: The Witch From Mercury took a lot from it, that's half of why I watched it, but I didn't expect the first episodes to be beat for beat the same but with a greenhouse full of roses instead of tomatoes, which until proven otherwise I will take as the sole cause of the shows' plots diverging
