#115 MSN-001A1 Delta Plus 1/144, Bandai HGUC

Quite good for a high grade kit that just looks great. My biggest gripe with the kit is the use of ball joints for the hip sockets that limit articulation, but that's to be expected for a kit of it's age, Bandai hadn't switched to universal joints there yet. Luckily they still have fairly good motion, unlike the hips of the Zeta Plus. Some people may not like the pretty drab color scheme, but I've found the more monochrome suits in Unicorn a lot more realistic and appealing as military machines. This one definitely fits. The Delta Plus looks mean and the kit captures that. It also has one of the better looking transformed modes when it comes to Gundam in my opinion. It's a part-swap transformation, but has the advantage of making everything very sturdy...with the exception of the connection between the wings and the back in mobile suit mode. Overall happy with the kit. Ignore my failure to extend the canards in the waverider mode photos, they do extend on the kit, I just forgot.

This kit is awesome and it gets you away from all the Gundam main units. It has a nice look and details for being an HG are pretty good. The fact that you can pose it in either flight mode or MS mode it's even better.

Easy ordering, arrived a day early, great condition, great kit, fun build. Can't say enough good things. Thanks to Matt and Hemil(?) For packing the orders so nicely
