This kit can easily be divided into a painful build experience with a great final result.
The build is awful for a few reasons. Firstly, the instructions contain numerous errors including inaccurate diagrams and omitted assembly orders. Second, many fits in this kit are absurdly tight even when they don't need to be. Things like attaching armour plates to the inner frame require immense amounts of force, sometimes even so much my bodyweight did not suffice to completely fit the pieces. I would recommend a vice for building this kit. Lastly, pieces are sharp, compounding the previous issue. SNAA have always been known for having tight fits and sharp pieces, but they are so egregious on this kit that it goes from minor annoyance to making the build unenjoyable.
However, once you get past the poor build experience, you get a beautiful kit. A massive arsenal of 6 weapons and a shield in 2 colours, huge effect pieces, tons of options, and auxilliary arms for a real protagonist feel, with a base to boot. Also plenty of panels for lining. That said, the auxilliary arms do not hold for long, becoming completely loose for me after just 2 days. This is expected, holding giant weapons aloft and at a great distance from their attraction point, they were never going to hold, but be aware that you will need something like plastic cement to hold them. I used a pair of 1/144 stands to hold the arms aloft after they had gone loose.
Also, great service from hobbyzone as per usual, arrive earlier than expected and in immaculate condition
