★★★★the realest real grade
November 26, 2025

I loved the God Gundam, a step forward into a new and better direction for real grades, and I was excited for this new one. This one is great, it's one of the most solid and steady kits I've built, and can pose like nothing else, and hold that pose forever. The drawback is that there's some very complex engineering afoot, so complex in fact that my thumbs were aching multiple times throughout the build process. That might be my lily white hands that have never seen a day of work in their life. Along with that, the face looks a little off, since the face has a gimmick for the super mode, there's a very noticeable line separating those parts. Don't let that distract you, this kit is still really good. Worth the price, and the fact that the only parts that aren't directly attached to the gundam are extra hands and some beam effects make this kit almost everything I want.

★★★★★Freaking Unit
August 26, 2025

This kit is a hefty build. It looks utterly AMAZING out of box, sadly it's one of those kits that comes with a lot of weapons, and doesn't come with a lot of places to stow them, and it also has a lot of extra runners due to it being an upgrade of an older kit, but an upgrade it is. Forget the days of using painful stickers to apply Sleeve decals, those are seperately molded and they look great. Articulation is impressive, and pair that with it's substantial presence, it looks amazing in any NZ/Sleeves display.

★★★★★Great movie, even better kit.
August 26, 2025

I love gundam narrative, both the movie and the mobile suit. This kit is no different. It has a really unique build that hearkens back to some other builds of that era, but manages to be utterly unique. In it's base form without any psycho frame, it looks amazing, but put on any psycho frame from the other unicorn MGs, and it looks heavenly. Did I mention that you can apply any MG Psycho frame (aside from MGEX i think) onto it, this includes the Banshee's orange, Phenex's blue, and the Unicorns Green. It also includes a fancy new Red psycho frame that works with the other MG unicorns as well, so if you don't like how it looks on this kit, you can apply it to your other Unicorns. It looks great in any Unicorn/Narrative display as well.

★★★★★The Strike Freedom, Perfected.
August 26, 2025

Not the biggest fan of the Strike Freedom, but this design got me head over heels. I thought the gold inner frame with the original was a bit gaudy, but with the Proud Defender, the gold becomes a really awesome accent to the whole kit. This is a Freedom kit, so it does have quite a lot of color correcting stickers, but they really work with the kit, making it able to pull of some aura-farming poses.

★★★★★Cheap, Fun, Quick.
August 26, 2025

This is the best EG I've built yet. It's a unique version of the strike, using Cagalli's colors, and the build is extremely quick and fun. A great way to fill in your collection or even to get someone into the hobby.

★★★★★Doing the Impossible.
August 26, 2025

Fell in love with this kit almost immediately. I'm a big fan of muted colors on military mobile suits, especially a fan of transformable mobile suits of the likes of the Zeta and the Delta Plus. This is like the Cosmic Era's version of the Delta Plus, down to the hot blonde pilot. The build was surprisingly simple, and yes it's a parts former, but once you can get over that little hurdle, you have a unique and special mobile suit that adds some much needed variety to any Seed display.

★★★★★An exciting take on a classic design
August 26, 2025

I knew after seeing the show, this would be a favorite design of mine. The classic RX 79 ground gundam reimagined for a modern era. The show makes this gundam out to be a demon, and the design fits that to a tee. The lanky proportions are perfectly fitting for a weapon of mass destruction, and the skull like face paired with the pale bone like complexion make it look like a grim reaper of the battlefield. The build is refreshing, and surprisingly in depth, as usual with a HG gundam you have to worry about the flags on the V-fin. This build has some really awesome gimmicks with the Beam saber holster and the back mounted gatling gun, and pair that with some amazing articulation, makes it a must have for any fan of the earth front of the OYW.

★★★★★Pretty freakin sweet
August 26, 2025

The MG Barbatos was already a pretty amazing kit, with a spectacularly detailed inner frame, and outstanding outer armor. This shows that not only does Bandai want to do more with the IBO Gundam Frame, but that the potential of what they can make is shown with what is one of the more unique Gundams from the series. What I loved about the MG Barbatos was that you could display it with all of it's weapons, and it had insane articulation. This kit has all that in spades, The pistols being safely and securely stowed behind the front skirts, the Rifle being able to be stowed in 3 positions on either of the side skirts, and the saber can stow in the 6 locations on both of the side skirts, make it very accessible and the inner frame makes it easy to pose. I worried that the Hunter's edge would make it hard to stand up on it's own, but surprisingly it can stand up with little to no issue. Display it with an action base to pull off more of those awesome poses we see in the show, and you got what might be the best MG release in recent years.

★★★★★Its peak...
August 22, 2023

I gotta praise this things transformation, albeit a little confusing at times, I managed to turn it from MS mode to Waverider mode pretty easily. This makes me hope they'll incorporate some of this engineering if they make a MG Delta Plus 2.0. It looks amazing put together, and it has some great articulation for being a transformable suit. The hands are great, way better than those silly 3.0 hands, and everything is nice and tight. If you're a fan of zeta in anyway, I definitely recommend this.

Overall a very great kit, with a few color correcting stickers, and the waist and legs are a tiny bit loose, but it looks amazing once fully put together, definitely recommend for anyone who's a fan of GMs

Typo in the Product Features. The website said this is a High Grade Universal Century Kit, but it's actually a High Grade IBO kit
