finally sat down and got to my Sazabi EVO today.. but i must say, right off the bat, i felt a bit disappointed.. size aside, the molding was not quite the quality i have come to expect from GoGo (like with Hi-Nu EVO). the plastic molding is a bit, unclean and requires slight trimming, although parts fit where they are supposed to.. just in areas like the ends of the thrusters has slight leaked plastic so it requires a bit of cleaning
HOWEVER! it is extremely detailed, as what i have come to expect from GoGo laugh.gif and amazing parts separation which leads to longer build time and much more crisp details.. plenty of lining to bring out the model as well
so far i've done the upper body.. and i'm fairly happy with it smile.gif although price-wise is a bit high, but the price is about the same as B**dai Sazabi (i think that one is RM100ish) and you get better detailing, and a nicer looking Sazabi (at least in my opinion!)
pics coming up as soon as i finish the main body biggrin.gif

finally completed Sazabi EVO! quite a bit of painting needed to make it stick out, such as some detailing and lining.. but the end result is pretty good, i think biggrin.gif
pretty amateurish.. i have plenty more to learn about painting whistling.gif

stands real nicely with Nu Gundoom HWS laugh.gif

final verdict, AMAZING piece.. pretty fun build for a HG.. not quite an MG-like build (mainly due to him not having an inner frame) but very nice engineering on most parts.. the feet even have the pistons like those found on PGs laugh.gif one problem is that his foot is designed in the way that it does not allow for side to side swivels.. so that he cannot stand flat on the ground sad.gif but he can stand fairly well, regardless!
if you have the Nu HWS, you will want this guy too! biggrin.gif he fits in really nicely since he's not as chunky as the original Sazabi

a bit disappointed with MC for milking Nu Gundoom this way  sweat.gif
looks like they jz change the head then slap in extra accessories only
if only they milk by changing more armor parts to ground-type look

but that would require new runners.. and even b brand hardly does it whistling.gif

anyone keep a extra unit of mg zeta from litt tak sales?
as usual i missed the litt tak sales again.

you should ask this at the gundam and mecha modelling thread as it's more relevant there
in any case, it's very difficult to keep extra units with a certain manager running around taking boxes out of people's bag doh.gif sorry to say.. but they limited to 1 unit per person and they even enforce this at the counter

which leads to first wtf moment

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «


details are abundant, so you don't have to worry about that here laugh.gif

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «


the pistons at the foot i mentioned.. but design of the foot prevents side to side swivel, so he cannot stand straight on the surface with a wider stance sad.gif

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «


nice parts separation and panel lining even at places you will hardly see them.. good detailing on GoGo's part laugh.gif

very reminiscent of Sinanju.. A LOT of thrusters
of course they come molded in grey so i painted them.. hope these pics helped you out laugh.gif

Thanks man biggrin.gif
but seems like some parts can't snap properly ah?

and haha u need a better camera tongue.gif
*
all of it snap just fine.. maybe due to movement some parts popped out.. i noticed the waist pipe came off doh.gif my bad tongue.gif but everything snaps together fine

and my camera is not bad already.. i'm just terrible with it's settings.. with gunpla i don't think i will ever be able to afford a DSLR doh.gif

BTW Sazabi EVO owners, do your Sazabi's headpiece pop out from it's head?
Mine is kinda loose :/

Oh btw the shield is quite heavy (but heck it's very detailed), so you might wanna nudge it to the shoulder armor tongue.gif
*
i glued down the headpiece whistling.gif and the shield is not that heavy. well.. at least compared to Nu HWS shield tongue.gif

i tried, maybe it is my lighting.. i don't have any extra lighting, just the fluorescent light in the room laugh.gif a lot of shadows because it's angled behind me, unfortunately.. the area below my light is packed with all my gundam boxes doh.gif

haha, damn it! should not have started.. but i do think i get my money's worth when it comes to ZOIDS.. i feel like i'm building something like a PG.. very intricate details, well designed parts and very involved build process..
i think after this, i got no feel for Gundams already wub.gif
