Premium Bandai FM 1/100 Sword Calamity Gundam

The back-mounted "Maga no Zuru" sword pieces fit together seamlessly and really anchor the whole silhouette. Build took me an evening and the color separation is excellent.

The panel lining really pops on this 1/100 scale frame, and the kit feels sturdy once assembled. Took me a weekend to finish, but the detail level on the Full Mechanics line is exactly what I wanted for this suit.

The articulation on this Full Mechanics kit is surprisingly tight for a 1/100, and the massive sword pieces lock in with a satisfying click. The panel lines are crisp, so it looks sharp even before I started detailing. Well worth the wait for this SEED suit.
