This is the high-grade kit from BanDai and was released in 2006.

Build notes

Being that this is the second time that I have built this kit, there were not that many surprises. One of the things I wanted to do with this build, was to upgrade it a little bit. With that in mind, all but one of the marking decals are water slides. The main reason I went with water slide decals were the markings on the arm binders. Also I not only did the standard panel lining, but hand painted the color corrections and detail painting.

Final Thoughts

This is one of those designs that I always stop to look at every time I walk by it on the shelf. Is it perfect? No, but in the end no build is ever perfect. Now to get some other builds out of the way, so that I can get the Mobile Armor build together.
