 Masterpiece May 02, 2009
By Isil Nemura
"Dueces"
Okay, so it came very quickly. The only down-side i had was i had to order twice since a carrier (No fault of Amazon) couldnt "find" my address. But i called Amazon, and they got that cleared up and sent to me very fast. Once it came i spent an entire weekend building it. It looks gorgeous and is only for those with experience building gundams. I have built several and this presented me with a challenge or two building it. First major challenge was the wiring. it tells you certain lengths to cut then shave down to bare wire. cut exactly how much wire they tell you, with maybe 2mm extra in case you're like me and need to expose the wire multiple times for re-wiring. Pay attention to the color of the wire shown in the instructions, yes it does matter. Also, it didn't come with the batteries, but those were easily found and purchased at a local jeweler/watch shop. Also have some glue handy, as some of the snap in parts don't snap in and stay perfectly. Once it was done, i was very proud of myself. the level of detail is unreal. it's a little wing-heavy once you try to pose, so i would get a wide stand, with multiple arms if you can find it. But this is the best gundam i have ever, and well worth every penny.

 Awesome Kit Dec 10, 2010
By That guy
"That Guy"
I just finished with this kit and having done a few pg kits prior i know what I like and what i dont. It is a beautiful kit once it is complete all though some of the parts dont stay one quite as well as I would like but nothing the super glue trick doesnt fix. I painted mine black and gold and it is awesome. The only massive downside to this kit is the wiring. I had it working perfectly and once it was all put together somthing inside must have shifted and the chest wont light up now. being the jerk that I am I am not taking it all back apart to fix this lol. The wiring takes precision and I would not recomend this for new gundam builders. However if you can over look its small flaws it is a great addition to have.

Beautiful Sep 02, 2010
By Mike
This kit is my perfect grade, and I must say it looks beautiful. Took me around 28 hrs to build plus another 2 for panel lining. I highly recommend you do panel line it and finish it with a clear flat coat and you won't be disappointed.
 Amazing design, bad weight distribution Feb 16, 2012
By Danielle Rega
This was the first PG gundam i have built, and, to be honest, this model kit was a little different than expected. I, unfortunately, mean this in a negative way.
Here are my likes and dislikes:
+ I LOVE THE DESIGN!!!!!
+ More detailed than what i expected
= Rather time consuming to build (I was able to finish this within 3 days, but its rather justiable because there are a crapload of parts
- The weight distribution is quite off, so this model kit is more for display over posing
- The parts remain very durable for a few days, then everything starts falling apart (Aargh!)
Verdict: If you liked Endless Waltz and this version of Wing Zero, this is a must buy, but for big Gundam model collectors, this should only be used for display not posing
Great Model Aug 04, 2011
By Kyle J. Pomeroy
This model is pretty cool and detailed nicely.
The wiring setup is terrible and could be much simpler and the model itself will need some kind of support to stand on its own (wings will work). A standard gundam "Action Base 1" is capable of holding it in a upright position no problem allowing you to use the wings for something other than support!
The feathers on the wings are rubber with a metallic core to allow bending of the feathers for various effects but be cautious as over bending will break the core.
My only real complaint is the red waist piece which is rubber instead of plastic. The 4 star durability rating is because this is a model, not a toy.
Bottom line, if your a Gundam Wing fan this model is a must have and well worth the money!
