The fact I didn’t seperate the barrels on the smoke discharger like the wheels will haunt me for the rest of time.
This has been on my backlog for a bit now, and with the Gilbow looking lonely on the shelf I figured it was finally time to get it snapped together. It’s definitely a fairly surprising build, with levels of depth that approach real grade territory in the torso, but the articulation can feel a bit lacking, and there’s stickers aplenty, although it was arguably the least trouble I’ve ever had doing HG stickers. Definitely a kit worth picking up, although it might be a tough sell at the £35 most places are flogging it for. Also, Ege Bamyasi by Can is a cracking record, even if it scared the bejesus out of me.
I elected not to class this as a fully fledged review, as I don’t think I went into as much detail on the finished set as I did with the Xabungle – it doesn’t help I found the thing somewhat hard to photograph. Hopefully what I did take will get across the ins and outs of the build.
I entirely forgot to mention that Synduality Noir is available (in the UK at least) on Disney+:

I feel like the unique appearance of kits in this line was a double-edged sword. Sure, they're cool, but they're not exactly traditional so I'm not sure how much they appeal to most people who buy primarily gundam kits.
Bought mine on an impulse when seen on sale at 25 euros, and almost forgot it till now… But after watching your review, it definitely gained a few places in the backlog queue! I too am a detailing junkie, and in that regard, it seems like a lot of fun…
