Destiny Gundam (Review)

Head

The head is constructed like any other normal, well 'brained' head, I really find nothing interesting about it, sadly. The colours might be too plain for me, as there are only white and yellow. The sticker for the camera is also hard to put in, despite using pilers and positioning it. The CIWS needs colouring to look realsitic.

Torso

The body has relatively nice colours for its phrase shift armour, thanks to the design. There are no openings for the cockpit like MG, hence not much of a surprise. The attachment for the arms is also hard, hence support good weights. But some other parts let it down, as below tells...

Arms

The arms are very loose, despite tightening. The anti-ship sword cannot be carried by one hand. This is definitely a disappointment. They are not too felxible too, but still able to do some posing with weapons.

Legs

The leg unit too have a problem; they are loose. The weights of the weaponary cannot be well supported by the legs and they tend to 'split'. This is some engineering fault in the model and the polycaps. Tougher polycaps should be used. Any other non-conventional fighting poses might mean disappointment too; it cannot support wide poses.

Weapons and Accessories/Conclusion

You must be amazed why I am so disappointed with many of the parts, I still bought the model. The main thing is the one that others lack; the Wings of Light. No other Gundam in the same series nor the Seed series possesed such interesting propulsion system, and the Mirage Colloid technology that made the mobile suit almost hard to track to the human, or Coordinators' eyes. The amazing speed that the ('real') Destiny can achieve, and the huge amounts of armaments make it a good choice to start your collection, if you are thinking of technical details and not too fussy on the posing/practical parts. The M2000GX folding high-energy long-range beam cannon is also another master piece, although it needs painting to look good. The length of the beam cannon and the anti-ship sword are some things that would amaze any kid or adult who land their eyes on it. (Overall Rating: 4 out of 5 stars)
