Worthy of the Perfect Grade line.
This kit was a pleasurable, awesome kit to build with a few overlookable flaws. To start, the frame on the Gundam Mk. II is very intricate in detail and very stable. You get a choice of either regular stickers or dry transfer decals for the option of markings. The armor opening gimmick is a nice touch for those interested in the mechanical side of kit building. The only downsides I have are in the kit's balance and some minor cosmetic details. Mainly, the kits has a slight tendency to lean forward, the backpack was a little loose on my kit, but nothing major. As for the cosmetic issue, the parts that appear clear green come as regular clear pieces, but it's nothing a little painting could fix. Overall, the completed kit is a real sight to behold and deserves a prime spot on the display shelf in your collection.

PG Titan
This is my first PG build and it went well. There's a lot of small pain the ass pieces to assemble (the chest vents and the leg thruster vents). Make sure you pay attention to these areas as they are easy to break. Another thing I wanted to point out is the rub on decals, if you grab them the wrong way they come off on your fingers! So make sure you grab them on the shiny side when applying. Also when applying it's best to rub it thoroughly with a razor blade or other sharp edged item, this ensures a clean application. Besides that this build was just like building any other gundam kit: flimsy, tedious, repetitive, but oh so worth it! The titan paint scheme is 100% badass and is instantly distinguishable from any other gundam: red, blue, white, yellow (yawn). Overall a great kit.

Awesome Build. So much detail in every part
This was a super fun build. My first Perfect Grade. My advice… TAKE YOUR TIME and follow the instructions step by step. It’s very easy to miss putting screws where they need to go or bypassing a small part. If anyone is wondering, the Leg when built is about the same height as a fully built 1/100 Master Grade. A lot of fun and can’t wait to build another one

Took a while, not worth it.
This build took awhile to complete. Be prepared to spend days on this. I'm very happy with the quality. Pretty sturdy. There's a guide that will show you the paint colors you'll need if you want to make it look anything like the product photos. I'm happy to see it came with led, but if you're in America, you may have trouble finding the correct battery alternative. You may need to order batteries online for this if you care for the lights. You'll need a Phillips screwdriver as well. Some parts will require you to tighten screws to the joint pieces.Overall, it's a pretty solid PG. While it'll take awhile, it's not as complex as other PG... With that said, I hope people can buy this at a reasonable price.

Pretty alright kit
Has a really good size and build. Barrel parts for the bazooka were curved so i can't put it completely together so theres that. For warning you'll need lr43 batteries and a3x75 Phillips head screw driver.

Better late than never
This was my first PG because I loved the way the Mk II looks and the Titans color scheme has always been better than the typical white-red-blue motif for the hero suits. Lots of small delicate pieces add to the detail and even though it can be built without glue/cement there were a few pieces (at least with my kit) that were a little too loose for my taste and small amount of cement fixed it, but you will need a small phillips head ("+") screwdriver. Like the cement, paint is not needed but it does greatly help the appearance but will require mixing base colors together to match the proper colors for the model. But even just a straight box build looks impressive. It has a lot of articulation and very good range of movement to make almost any pose and it stays in the pose very well. For people who have built the MG version of this there are some differences beyond the size, parts of the armor that moved (like the thigh armor) are in a more static position on this one, and probably my biggest disappointment was that this comes with only 1 ammo clip for the bazooka whereas the MG had 2, but both do come with 3 clips for the rifle. Like other PGs there are lights and some "wiring" that can be assembled to make the eyes glow or can be omitted if you don't want to bother lighting it up. Overall this is still my favorite PG and the only PG I have multiple copies of especially since it has decals to designate the model as unit 01, 02, or 03.Tools/supplies needed:small phillips screwdriversharp hobby knife, sprue cutter, or side cutter (to remove parts from sprues)small bowl/cup of water (for water slide decals)something firm but not sharp (for rub-on transfer decals)time and patienceTools/supplies recommended:tweezers for holding small parts or placing peel-and-stick decalsplastic glue/cement (should be designed for ABS, PS, and PE plastics)sandpaperpaint, paint brushes, containers to mix paint in, paint stirrers and paint sealantcutting matclean workspace with ample lighting to avoid lost partslots of time, lots of patience, lots of rest (I doubt you want to rush and make a mistake)

build your own action figure!
First off this is no toy. Its a very large very complex model. Its taken the greater part of 2 weeks and im still not finished constructing it. The end result is a super poseable,highly detailed model.you can play with it if you like. Its fairly sturdy but it will certainly make a excellent show piece as it stands quite well in its own.
