Nice work man. I'm working on my HGUC Sazabi right now. Converting it to metallic color too but a bit different from your color scheme.

with the o raiser attachment its extremely back heavy. Due to the way the waist is design to move, it tends to lean backward due to the o raiser weight.
u cant hold the sword with the big ass effect part attach, its just too heavy. U can kinda cheat by holding it straight up but thats the only pose u can do with it.
the gn drive while is kinda neat with the motor inside to spin it up, but its also noisy.
im not sure u r given a stand or not, last time the stand was given out in a separate box. If u arent then the weight and balance issue is just gonna be even worst. Even with the stand it not exactly stable either.
posing it with all these balance issue will frustrate anyone.

overall the main problem with it is balance and weight issue, MG did it better at a fraction of the cost. Its along the same line as PG Wing Zero really. Both came out b4 their MG counterpart, both has flawed that r fix in the MG. Its as if Bandai decided to use PG as a experiment test bed b4 releasing its MG. And given the price u hav to fork out of ur bank account, ur better off with the latter.

thanks for info Admiral!

what's your verdict when compared to PG Strike Freedom?
both are price similarly, if not based on MS preference, which is better/more worth?

^ off the top of my head, definitely PG 00R.. it has more gimmicks and i think overall better build than PG SF.. SF you're basically paying a lot for the gold plating but that's just my opinion.. maybe wait for a more informed one

PG SF also is a big disappointment.

Given the price u'll expect at least fully chrome plated gold, but ure gonna end up with puke gold on most runner just like the MG.
The wing hav that locking mechanism, while it is understandable given the weight of that thing its also abit limiting in how u gonna pose with it. Not to mention it lock at a weird angle.
Speaking of the wing, there r many cases where the peg connecting to the back pack broke into 2. Many ppl suggest reinforce it with some metal ring or just directly use brass rod instead. Seeing as this is a PG and cost alot of $$$ u'll expect better engineering than this.
Main selling point of PG is the innerframe. How well its being engineered how much detail is being put into it, this is no different. However u cant really show it with SF. Unlike say PG Strike or PG GP01 where u can pop open some armor pieces to reveal some innerframe, SF cant do that. Sure some armor slide up and down on the tight but it isnt unique, most MG hav that mechanism nowadays. And even if u can do u really wan to show off that puke gold?

Given the choice i'll go for neither, but if u point a gun to my head i'll go with 00. At least u'll be given alot more plastic to play with. General consensus is just go with Astray or Strike, both r cheaper and more satisfying.

thanks man

good thing to know that the 2 most expensive PGs are best left avoided, i can set my goal on others

PG Strike + Skygrasper

what hardcore? that is normal price for PG anyway
best PG i would like own would be PG MK-II Titans/AEUG

anyway,summoning Tiger I

yummy already released in japan.. can't wait for it to get here

Yeah it really needs MG v2.0 or RG treatment...just loved the simple design but prob is Bandai isnt doing anything bout it since it's not that famous for the anime series...
M so tempted to get the PG but the price is unless they only produce GP01 without the Fb kit, then i dun mind getting coz it's gonna be cheaper like PG Strike

Bro Chris, I am also working on this kit. U face a lot of joint and nub problems ?

PO-ed mine early this month hihihihih

what's the price like for the PO?

err.. rm68 COD... quite cheap for full-armament type HG for me.. hehehehe

nice good luck to your build. so far mine only facing abit of problem for the small hole and few rough surface but no problem with joint and nub problems.

Chris, does the resin conversion affects the articulation of the kit?
If I'm not mistaken, a full resin kit (not conversion) has almost no articulation since everything is glued together. Do correct me if I'm wrong.

Anyone here got lubang where to find PG red frame with clear parts?

I would have got myself the PG GP01 if it wasn't about the FullBurnen parts. I'd prefer the ground type than the space type

oh shoot..... kantoi pulak...

Hahaha! same ere man! wish they had fb and ground sold separately...i guess bandai don't know how to milk money back in those days until they produce PG Strike and then PG Skygrasper+Aile Pack
