Yeah I agree about the monotone colourscheme. Plus, being such a rich blue makes it look very cartoony. (then again it's from a very cartoony show) And it reminds me of how the Wing upgrades tried to one-up previous versions just by doubling their weapons.

The good thing about it is that while the colors are bland, the parts separation is actually really good. So all it would take to make it look decent would be to simply spray-paint the runners different blues, no masking needed.

What's the best HG Zaku and HG Dom to stand next to my Gouf as an entourage? Since I plan to get the Ground Gundam sets to go with Ez8, it'd be cool to have goons to shoost.

I recommend waiting for the Char's Zaku II Origin ver. to come out. The next best HG Zaku mold is a little old, and there's no Char version of it. Unfortunately, all the HG Doms are kinda crap. They all either came out in the very early 2000s, or are retools of the mold(s) that came out back then. So expect awful articulation, heavy stickering, and a disappointingly simple build.

I just think it's one of the best Goufs in terms of weaponry, design, and color scheme.

the orangey amber in the weapons and abdomen are also nice.

I don't want a Char Zaku, just regular green ones like in 08th MS team.

Oh, then you can go with the Zaku F2 Zeon ver. It's slightly different than the normal Zaku II, but not in any noticeable way. Mostly it's just a remake of the old kit.

...My Char Dom has barely any stickers.

Really? *checks hobbysearch listing* Well, I stand corrected. Still, it's a brick.

It has less leg articulation though.

I'd either get the original*even if it is derpy looking* or wait for the inevitable green repaint of the new Char/BTS version or just get the RG.
