HGCE 1/144 Strike Freedom Gundam

The articulated wings on this kit lock into place so satisfyingly, and the gold plating on the frame really pops. Building it took about two evenings, but every joint feels solid.

I was blown away by how clean and sharp the gold plating looks on the wing sections, really makes it pop on the shelf. The kit went together smoothly in about two hours with no major fuss.

The articulation on this kit is incredible, especially the wings with their multiple moving panels. The gold accents pop perfectly right out of the box, and it took me about two evenings to snap it together cleanly.
