Premium Bandai HGUC 1/144 Me02R-F02c Messer Type-F02 (Commander Type)

The beam rifle and shield included in this kit are molded in a nice dark gray that saves painting time, and the shoulder armor's commander antenna looks sharp right out of the box.

Articulation on the commander antenna and shoulder armor is way better than I expected for a High Grade, and the dark color scheme really pops once you panel-line it. Took me about three evenings to finish, but the final silhouette looks like it walked straight out of the movie.

The box art alone got me hyped, and once assembled, the dark blue commander color scheme really stands out on the shelf. The shield and beam rifle fit together nicely, making this a solid addition to my Universal Century display.
