Bandai Hobby RG Build Strike Gundam Full Package "Build Fighters" Building Kit (1/144 Scale)

One thing I don’t like is that it is more delicate and fragile than other models I have encountered. Falls apart to easy even when gentle touched. Apart from that, it is a very detailed model/ figure.

A really awesome looking real grade, easily holds all included weapons and looks striking on the shelf. Less delicate then some real grade kits like the Red Astray, but not quite as sturdy as the masterpieces in the Real Grade line like the RX-93 Gundam. Absolutely love it and I'm super happy that there is at least one RG kit for Build Fighters!

Exactly as advertised, seller got it to me very quickly and in perfect condition. Will definitely buy from again. The kit itself is somewhat typical of RG kits in general, so its gonna depend on if you like the line or not.

The Real Grade Gundam build strike is an all around good kit. Not greart, but not terrible. As with any RG based off of older real grades the inner frame does have the tendency to loosen over time, making doing complex poses a chore. But if you're not constantly re posing the model I find it's hardly an issue.Other than that the build strike bosts the lines usually attention to detail and good engineering. I'd say that it would make an okay first real grade, although I personally don't recommend an rg for anyone's first ever model building experience.

As someone used to building HGs, there's both a lot to like and hate about this kit. If you have meaty hands, losing pieces is almost inevitable. I recommend tweezers, especially for sticker application.The famous RG pre-built inner-frame is probably one of the weakest parts of the design, because there are many instances of the frame either being too easy to wear-and-tear (on my instance of the toy, anyway) to moments where a more parts-efficient HG kit would offer better articulation, the ankles and head in particular. Despite it's many accessories and play options, this is best a "display-only" kind of kit because of how frail it is. The shoulder pieces on the pre-built frame are a microcosm of this, though it may just be bad QC.The pauldrons themselves will often fall off, one of them even showing stress marks on the C-clip it uses to attach to the rest of the kit. The shoulders, oddly enough, use balljoints and these can wear down VERY easily if you aren't careful. During assembly I wore them down to the point where the shoulder would pop out whenever I rotated it forward or backward, exacerbating the problem with the pauldrons. Thickening the balljoint with superglue or floor polish will not fix the problem, as the design of it is so precise.

The best RG I've built color separation is fantastic and it looks amazing. Biggest problem I had with it is one of the smaller wings were broke on the runner and i had to glue it together and up close you can kinda see it but from a distance it looks fine. Would recommend!

It's a Real Grade so there are more parts than a High Grade, but smaller than a Master Grade so it's bit more difficult to assemble. That isn't a knock against the model just a warning to new builders. Great model and fun to assemble.
