It shows it's age with the joins and hands. The hip articulation is lacking (all products of the designs of its time). The look is good though. It really captures the unique look of the Ez8 with the odd color scheme and head armor. The backpack is in the same color as the rest of the armor and so is the shield, so some painting is needed if anime accuracy is what you're after. I say get it, but be aware of the articulation limits. Also, I bit the bullet and glued the head antennae in place. Mine kept falling out.

I love all the accessories and the articulation is pretty good for what it is. Overall I really like this kit, but some of the older style for mastergrade shows through. The hands are a bit lacking without a peg and groove to better hold the weapons, but other than that I think its a darn fine kit.

Complicated. That one word sums this kit up nicely. It is a sight to behold and I'm glad I got it, but this thing is a beast. I spent less time on the Psycho Zaku than this guy. I don't regret it at all, but be aware of what you are getting into.

To put it simply: this kit is basically a giant Zaku II 2.0, and that's a good thing. Its well molded, well designed, beautifully sculpted, and the accessories drive home how this kit was meant to be enjoyed by the fans. They knew what they were doing and it shows.

This kit does show its age, but is very well designed for its time. My biggest complaint is the shoulders and knees. Some poses are kind of hard to pull off, but overall I very much like it. The almost pearlescence white is a great standout from other white kits.

Well crafted, beautifully colored, just enough gimmicks to keep it interesting. The three optic visors let you display it in anime accurate form. Sometimes the nub spots are a bit of an eyesore, but you can fix that with a gold resin marker. 10/10 must have.

This was the first 1/144 scale kit I ever built. Massive doesn't cover it. Easy to build and imposing even over 1/100 kits, this monster is easy to build, highly posable, well molded, and truly a gift to the fans.

It's not too bad. It's not that great either. A good starter kit to those new to MG. I prefer the ver. 1.5 for easy builds and for making custom units, but this has its place.

It is one of the original trio. It looks really good. The compatibility with the LED kit is fun. The treads are an absolute pain to put on. They are the sole reason I gave it 3 stars. Those freakin' treads! I hate them! BUT! It is a must have for a OYW collection.

Great looking kit, striking colors for them seeming subdued. Comes with a mounting clip that allows for free fall poses. Was fun to build and looks decent enough on the shelf. I'm lucky enough to have the 1/100 Ballute System so I can pose them in free fall with some anime accuracy. Great addition to any collection.
