프리미엄 반다이 HG 1/144 자쿠 II F 타입 츄브스 & 칼레 + 자쿠II (미확인 타입) 솔라리 커스텀 파츠 세트 (RFV)

The articulation on the Zaku II's shoulder armor is surprisingly smooth for a high-grade kit, and the custom parts snap in place with a satisfying click. I've built a few HG kits before and this one feels tighter, the joints holding poses better than I expected.

The box is packed with runners, so you get a proper build session rather than a quick snap—the extra Zaku II variant alone makes this set feel like two kits in one. Assembly took me a couple evenings, and the panel lines on the F-type parts are crisp enough to pop with just a light panel wash.

The extra parts for Chubs and Kale slot right in without any sanding, and the Solari custom head option gives the build a whole different silhouette. Took me an evening to finish, and the panel lines are crisp enough that even my shaky panel lining looks decent.
