you need to get your hand on HGUC ZAKU II F2 and the ZAKU II R-2 Johnny/Shin type(both are similar) although they come from the same model kit but man they are WAYYY much better than whatever this crap is
I honestly think it's rather unique since it's one of those amphibious MSes that actually looks like and fits well with the rest of the more mainstream-looking suits unlike it's siblings (I'm looking at you, Juaggu).
Hopefully not. With the Astray, at least it is around on par with other SEED kits, so it doesn't stick out like a sore thumb. HGUC doesn't have that excuse.
I think the team may have been thinking there are still people out there wan to hand paint or spray paint the parts with the gray or green coloured moulded parts.
I could never hate a Zaku, but boy, they sure tried to make me here. Bandai is usually, rightfully, known for their effort, but they got lazy here, as they sometimes do.
yeah...very dissapointing kit...bandai knows that only true fans of the mariner would buy this kit..regardless of the quality...therefore we get this....crap.. BTW, i just realized the speed up function is gone from the video viewer? it was there when i watched the MK-II review....that thing is very useful when I am in a hurry...(i find it only present on your channel too.
