Some Thoughts

First off, if you are not very good with panel line edging like I am, I suggest you get a scriber to create channels to make panel lining much easier. There were some armor pieces that really tested my patience when it came to panel lining. Since I plan to build the rest of the ver. EW line, I went ahead and placed an order for a scriber. Plus with the scriber, I can start making my own panel lines!

As for the build, I'd say it's a pretty solid build. Most of the pieces fit well into place and each sub-assembly (legs, arms, head, etc) except for the waist feels sturdy once completed. The waist section annoyed me quite a bit during photography because parts kept flying out. Even though I put more paint on the ball joints than usual to help make them tighter, it didn't really help.

Overall, if you were interested in this kit, I say go for it! Once completed, it'll be an eye catcher in your display case with it's intimidating weaponry, color, and looks.
