NINJA GATTAI



Okay, there's a couple things that bummed me out. First, the individual robots are not as fun to build since Yellow+Black and Blue+White are essentially the same. I like when there's variety in the designs. I will say the sculpting for the stone wall panels is excellent



My biggest gripe was transforming Red. Turning the legs upside was incredibly frustrating and restrictive. As you can see, I snapped off a front panel trying to do so. On the other leg I opted to do a partial disassembly to get the peg to rotate. On the flip side, the transformation for the limbs is so easy it's almost trivial, but I'm not a fan of having to remove the heads on Yellow and Black to connect the feet. In general I'm not a fan of removing pieces to transform mechs.

BUT I don't completely dislike this kit. The castle aesthetic is an all-time great design and the chrome pieces are a good addition. With enough time I'll probably get over the final issues I ran into
