Blazing Spirits 1/100 Master Gundam Zhunshi Metal Frame Model Kit

Snapping the armor plates onto the die-cast inner frame felt sturdier than any plastic kit I've built, and the panel lining on the shoulders came out surprisingly crisp. Took me about six hours across two evenings, and it holds a pose on the shelf without drooping.

The die-cast metal frame gives this thing a weight I wasn't expecting from a 1/100 kit, and the joints hold poses way better than the plastic ones I'm used to. Panel lining took me a whole weekend but the detail underneath is worth it.

I've built a few 1/100 kits before, but the die-cast inner frame on this one gives it a weight I didn't expect. The armor panels snap on tight and the joints hold a pose without sagging. Took me two evenings and I'd happily do it again.
