[Shin Densetsu]

I find myself craving Gundams again. 1/144 HGUC/HGAC Build Fighter, MG....the appeal is that each completed kit in a way, represents your skill. You truly can make these your own.

I got my first Gunpla back in the late 90's and it is amazing to see how far Bandai Hobby has come with these. Just looking at how the new 1/144 HGAC Wing Gundam turned out compared to the original 1/144 kit......it's like night and day. I love the focus on color separation and more articulation.

I also like how the HGAC Age kit stands had spots under their stands to store swappable parts.

I now understand that as a model these will almost always look better than their toy counterparts. So I can see why Den-O prefers kits to RD's. In addition I understand that labor factors into toy costs but it seems like you get more bang for your buck with a kit(compared to a RD figure). For example the MG Epyon has way more detail and features over the RD and is much bigger when completed.
