my 1st ever review in this thread and its gonna be
TURN A GUNDAMThe anime Turn A gundam fascinate me as i watch it instead constant big explosion,heated beam saber battle,and alot of character name yelling cough*Seed cough*
it features a radical chg in storyline with big emphasis on character development and story instead of the usual plot,the Thurn A gundam there does not been treated as a weapon but instead as a tool to bridge peace between earth and moon
1ST IMPRESSION

1st look i found the box is a small size MG box that has the same size as my HG sazabi box never knew the box might be this small,the box art shows a Turn A gundam in a static standing pose which i think onli few suit can pull it off while looking cool
opening the box find me a really nice looking magazine call Gunpla which is mostly about Turn A that time apart from that u have the standard manual book with
a not so standard cover, i also receive so small leaflets about other gunpla and so on
Building Process

When i start building it ,i notice that the color separation is very good,its even better than my Hi-nu gundam ,the blue,red and yellow were at their right tone
and the white is as white as usual

. the process is very easy most of the part can be completed in no time minus the panel lining especially the arm which onli span 2 steps!!! but the index finger for the arm is some wat lose for me so i hope its onli a one kit defect .for the legs ,i thought they are going to be tough at 1st but surprisingly easy even if the leg look complicated. i totally love the head parts cuz they don give a foil sticker as ur eyes... instead they snap in 2 separate parts one some wat like clear yellow and one black to make the eyes on the head pretty much like PG and to give the eyes some extra shine u can paste a foil sticker there which has a sticky chrome color side and finally the so call "mustache" in this gunpla is actually more like a animal tusk giving it a more aggressive look one thing to look out for is the panel lining ,the panel line in this suit is a must or else ur turn A wil be a very dull suit
Articulation

even with such a simple construction.. the articulation on this kit is amazing.the whole arm can bend 90degreed ,the head has no obstruction or wat so ever .most importantly the legssssss, which has awesome articulation that allows u to pull of amazing pose like the picture below...
Weapons

The Turn A gundam comes with ur standard weapons and equipment such as a beam rifle/launcher,a shield ,2 beam saber handle+ beam saber effect part and lastly a gundam hammer, the beam rifle is a strange one with ability to chg into a beam launcher,while the shield can be adjusted to ur prefer height and the beam saber has a really ,REALLY thin beam effect parts so becareful about it
the Turn A gundam is an awesome kit and for a damn cheap price of 3800yen if u can looks pass some of its small flaw it definitely will be a kit that does not disappoint u

1. really lose index finger( hampering some effort to hold things but this could limited to my own kit)
2. the head is not for the faint hearted in gundam fans
3. the panel line might drive some ppl crazy but not doing it will make the kit look suck
