It's a relatively simple kit - just three runners of plastic. A couple different colors of beam effects. And a runnerless stand, which was a little bit of a surprise. I don't think I've built a kit with a runnerless stand yet? And it seems like a vaguely odd addition to this kit. But I guess I'm not going to complain about a stand.

I like this head a lot more than the one on Guel's Dilanza. The big horn and halo strike a much more imposing visage than that goofy feather.

I'm always happy to get some alternate hands... But, again, there's just the one. There's an expressive/open left hand, but the only option on the right is a closed/holding hand.

I know I can buy some extra hands... But I somehow doubt they'll come in this bright off-white.

The torso is definitely reminiscent of the Dilanza. The waist is weirdly small. I don't love the foot/claw things... The backpack is just this weird rack to store extra limbs on.

And there's the runnerless stand - so named because there's no runner.

It's fine. It's largely static and doesn't allow for a whole lot of posing options, but it'll get your model up off the ground. And I always appreciate an extra stand. But it seems like a weirdly insufficient addition to this kit.

This mobile suit has so many bits that can operate independently. There's two pairs of arms that can both be independent weapons, the shoulder shields, and the foot/claw things. That's theoretically eight different things flying around on their own.

And they give you a single runnerless stand.

I know the plastic isn't free. If they'd provided more stands for all the different bits the kit would've cost more. But, at the same time, I would've been able to display it properly right out of the box.

I really like the deep purple beam effects. I wish we'd gotten more of those, instead of the green blade effects.
