Product Description

Small-scale version of the boy-I've-got-a-lot-of-missiles-on-me mecha from the OVA (Original Video Animation) series "Gundam Wing: Endless Waltz." Chest and shoulder hatches open. Back-mounted guns can be gripped (includes three versions of the hands). Specifically designed to be able to be posed in some of the more memorable ways it was seen in the series. Snap-assembly, fully-posable and molded in color. Note, however, that many of the smaller details are NOT in their "real" colors and painting this model will make it look much better. About 12cm tall when completed.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Nice Replica For Gundam Fans, July 14, 2011

This Heavyarms model was fun to put together, but a little to easy compared to more modern Gundam kits. The building process will only take about an hour or two. The main body colors are fine and the set comes with stickers for the detail colors, though I would strongly advise using paint for the details instead though. The stickers look passable, but painting the green lines and face are quick and easy remedies to make the model look much better. The finished product is pretty sturdy. His chest and shoulders flip open to reveal missiles and machine guns, whiles his legs and hips have pieces that can be replaced with additional missile openings. This model also comes with two large machine guns (displayed on box) which are light enough to keep the Heavyarms from being top heavy. He poses fine without any worry of breaking, but when trying to make more complex leg poses his back has a strange angle to it. My main concern was that his antennae and jets for his back are very delicate.One of the jets was already broken before I recieved mine, which was a little disappointing, but not a deal breaker.

In conclusion, I was very pleased with this model kit. The Heavyarms looks great, and despite needing a little bit of detail paint, is immediately shelf worthy. This simplicity of this model kit would be perfect for a first time builder. Whether you love the Heavyarms model, love wing, or just love the Gundam franchise in general, this is a great model kit.

Decent model that is easy to put together. Colors are a little off.

Note: the model does not have the war torn look of the pictures. I was very disappointed when I found this out. It only has a bright color scheme, so this is something you would have to add.

Well, the box was nice, the directions were in Japanese, but that really doesn't matter at all. It was REALLY fun to put together!! i loved doing it, and when it was coming along, i was just amazing at my own progress. The only thing i can say that i didn't realize, is that it is a lot smaller than i expected. also, the pieces are somewhat really fragile, i had multiple moments where i was scared i almost broke the pieces. But for the price? this was just amazing. Totally worth the effort!!
