Bandai Hobby - Gundam Wing - Wing Gundam (TV), Bandai Spirits MG 1/100 Model Kit

All around just a great kit from the original show. Bird mode looks great and the buster rifle sits in the right and left arms perfectly fine. The amount of articulation you can do with this kit is amazing as well. Joints move properly and as you expect and it all around looks amazing when it's finished especially if you take the time out of your day to panel line and watermark sticker the kit. If you want to try a more advanced kit going to this master grade I would recommend. But only if you have built a few high grades under your belt for beginners this might be a little too much.

I’ve liked Wing Gundam since it aired on Toonami. When I was a child, I didn’t think much of giant robots. That all changed when I saw this EPIC BEAST transform! It was a thing of beauty! Those memories stick with me even now. However, I was very nervous about actually building a Gunpla of this awesome mech. I personally felt that I wouldn’t have the skills or ability to do it. Plus, I have NEVER built a Gunpla or any model before. ABSOLUTE NOOB HERE! However, after God provided an opportunity to do this (I was doing graduate classes at the time), I bought myself a small Modeler Tool kit and got to work on it. And I thank Jesus that I did! I was OVERJOYED to be able to recreate my favorite Gundam from childhood! Even without adding any paint (I didn’t do it because I don’t trust my skill level), it closely resembles the Wing Gundam I’m so fond of!Now, I was surprised by the amount of time it took to build (it took me roughly 12 hours to complete), but I guess that’s a given when you work on a Gunpla. However, it did not reduce my joy in building it. Not one bit! Also, I do not believe the time it takes to build should detract from the experience of building a Gunpla, especially when it’s one of your favorite mechs of all time!After this experience, I’m very interested in building some of the other Gunplas out there! :)I would absolutely recommend this model kit to anyone interested in Gunpla, especially those who consider Wing Gundam one of their favorite Gundams of all time!

Great price, delivered on time and in perfect condition. The only thing i dont like about this master grade are the hands - they don't hold the weapons well. Took about 8 hours to assemble and detail. The included stickers and dry transfers really make it pop. The transformation is pretty cool too.

Let me I've made a decent amount of MG models and this was one was really solid. It was fun and somewhat to easy to make. If you are gundam wing fan I would suggest this model. The only issue I had was keeping the shield attached as it's supporting mechanism isn't the greatest. A decent amount of movement will dislodge it. Every other weapon attaches and stays on fine. I would suggest this as a starting MG model for new builders.

With a few minor flaws such as the beam cannon beaming too heavy and the wings not closing all the way, it's still a nice kit! I like the small things that make this kit a wonderful build. I like the should pads that are adjustable. They are a bit shaky but you can adjust them. The Shield is a bit stiff but I was able to figure out how to make it stick to the arm. The Bird mode could use a little work when it comes to the shield/Beam cannon on it's back, but it's not that big of a deal. It's still a fun build.

Wing Gundam is the one that introduced me to the series and since then I've been a fan. For the longest time I wished there was a Master Grade Wing Gundam and now there finally is! This modern MG is definitely worthy of the title. Great attention to detail, range of movement, and an awesome presence when it's assembled. This last point really isn't a concern, just be aware it seems that modern MGs seem to be smaller than their older counterparts. Which is not to say that either generation of MG are any less complex than the other both generations should be tried out.

This gundam finally gets the master grade treatment and to start off its a fairly simple model that doesn't get to complicated or overly simple either. It has all the standard features like the sheild, gun, and beam saber but, what separates this gundam from others is its "bird mode" which changes the figure to a fighter like jet. It also has a redesign for the hands with inter changable fingers for the weapons and posses. Other than that this is a pretty standard master grade figure with no obvious problems or useless features to dim the look of this figure. If you were a fan of the series or just like the design this would be a good buy.

I build a lot of Gunpla and was happy to come back to the series that started my obsession, Gundam Wing. Definitely a fun build and would recommend for any Gundam Wing fan.
