BANDAIHobby Banda Hobby HG 1/144 Transient Gundam Glacier Gundam Building Kit

This a great kit to start off with, if you're new to building these. It was pretty simple but still fun.Pros:-3 different colors of purple, provide some great contrast and compliment the grey pretty nicely- comes with a stand (but only because it cannot really stand on its own)- easy to assembleCons:- the backpack is rather large and cumbersome, which becomes an issue in regards to posing it. the translucent parts from the shoulders and pack sort of limit movement- the feet have these large translucent talon looking things, which make it rather difficult to stand on its on (not in issue because of the base but something worth notingOverall, I would definitely recommend buying one of these. It was a nice change of pace from the standard grey/blue/red models out there.

I'm not pro and all my builds are basic without adding the painting details. This kit has great colors and looks fine without the details. The translucent parts really make it pop. It was also nice that a HG kit included a stand. Some of the pictures looked like some of the armor was green and purple, while others were black and purple. I personally liked the look of the green, but this kit is black. Still looks great though. Took roughly 4 hrs to complete with some breaks and interruptions. MG are more fun in my opinion because of all the intricate details and the interior frame, but HG are great to for diversity to your sets and budget for your wallet.

amazon prime is perfect for gunpla builders. This looks awesome has a straight build, not much ability to panel line but with a paint job I bet it would look even better than it does normally. the black and purple works no idea why but it works. I decided to go with this model over kijima's transient gundam. well worth the money! coming with the base also makes it a must buy for a gundam build fighters series fan

The color of this kit is striking in a collection of whites and green gundams. Stands out and demands attention. The weapons are unique and beautiful. The clear plastic is a little brittle, but that's to be expected. Fun kit overall

It came on time end. It was a good party, and I like it.

I love this model I've put together over 20 given models counting hg and mg. Between this one and the wing zero honoo it's hard to decide which is my favorite, I would love to have a master or real grade of both. Getting back on topic, this model is definitely a buy, it's beautiful even without paint. Comes with a mini stand to so that's always a plus.

Instructions were easy to follow as well as with the backpack/wings, and the dual weapons that it becomes ridiculously hard to stand on its own. Thankfully the kit comes with a stand to help but be warned.

This is now one of my favorite hg kits. Even though there are a lot of transparent pieces the clean up on them is super easy. I decided to use gunmetal paint instead of the dark gray/black stickers, I also used a bit of silver dry brushing.
