RG 1/144 Gundam Astray Gold Frame Amatsu Mina

The metallic gold plating on the frame parts looks stunning right out of the box, and the included decals really bring out the Amatsu Mina's unique details. It took me a few evenings to build, but the finished kit is incredibly posable and feels solid for a 1/144 scale.

The articulation in the joints is incredibly tight and precise, making it easy to pose the huge golden claw arm without it drooping. I was genuinely surprised by how many individual parts come on the runners for a 1/144 scale kit.

The gold plating looks great out of the box, but some of the inner frame joints are tighter than I'd like during assembly. It's a solid kit overall, just not as smooth to pose as I hoped.
