A good kit is on sale now.
HG level with MG size.
considering the seller it should be the Japanese version with no content difference.
waiting for XI to drop the price too.

Get at least 1/100. 1/144 is too small and not much detail.

This is probably as big as a normal 1/100.

Got a deal alert for +3 thumbs up, but all I saw was a series of random words and numbers. Had to click the link just to see WTF this was… suffice it to say if you don't recognize the words in the title, this deal is not for you! Haha.

But thanks for the enlightenment!

It's weird that the provided pictures didn't offer you any insight.

"Standing over 9" tall, it surpases the height of most MG models despite being only 1/144 scale"

My son and I have gotten into building these a bit (just on our second one now, MG Heavy Arms) and while we are eyeing larger models for our third build, have to say don't love the aesthetics of this one.

It's definitely got the size (I assume this is the tallest HG, and maybe even MG?) but since I don't know the show at all, no idea what the context is for this one.

The "flight" form looks like a Transformer stuck in mid-transform between jet (?!) and robot. Or maybe none of the pics posted show the final "wing/air" form?

Just looks odd, but happy to be educated.

I've been 3d printing mine with very fine details. It's amazing what 3d printers can do now.
