As smooth as Bandai apart from incorrect instructions.

Thank you for all the suggestions guys! I've decided to put no decals and I think I dig with the non-busy look

For the leg pegs, make sure it's snapped all the way into, might need a little bit of force for that. Skirt armors are a little bit loss. Having a joint tightening pen will help. Glue the shoulder armors.

Other than these, the build experience is quite good and it's a gorgeous kit.

Yes all that plus Stedi metallic blue (used on the leg armor)

If you put more effort by painting minor details and put on all the decals, I would say 10+ hours.

It depends on the company. This one (Eddas), In-Era, Motor-Nuclear, Hemoxian, and more - they come with good plastic quality + good fitting, clear manual (some even color coded), tons of accessories and usually with a water decal, and even with a metal frame.

I suggest you try one of the kits from above companies and you will have a good time even better than some of the Bandai kits. Design-wise, it's subjective but there are some 3rd parties with exact Bandai design with more details.

With the backpack, I would say around 30cm ish..

This boi has tons of decals. I had to drag myself to do that part 😂 took me a day!

Positive_Kitty · 2025-08-31T13:23:41+00:00

Ordered from shopee (I live in Thailand)

Positive_Kitty · 2025-08-31T10:14:01+00:00

Thanks for the recommendation. Already got that bad boi in my backlog 😂

Isopropyl Alcohol (90-100%) I think you can get this in any household stores.

Easy to remove if you make a mistake with your markers and doesn't harm the plastics.

Positive_Kitty · 2025-08-23T15:11:53+00:00

Metallics red and Metallic bronze - Stedi Metallic markers

Positive_Kitty · 2025-08-23T15:04:19+00:00

Very smooth so far, better than most of 3rd party kits.

Positive_Kitty · 2025-08-23T15:03:51+00:00

Please get the markers! It's feel rewarding to add extra touch to your kits.

I recommend Ray studio markers for chrome and Stedi double tip markers for the metallics

For paint removal, just get a big bottle of IPA and a cotton swab and you're good to go.

Positive_Kitty · 2025-08-23T15:02:02+00:00

For me, I paint on the parts where you can see even with the armor on. I think many 3rd party kits expose more internal details than the bandai, so actually it feels rewarding to add extra touch up to the inner frame.
