(More customer reviews)The Mobile Suit is Hajime Katoki's refit of the Wing Gundam Zero, designed for the Gundam Wing movie Endless Waltz. The Mobile Suit is primarily white, sporting four large, feathered wings, twin Beam Sabers (green) and the massive Twin Buster Rifle for which the Wing Zero is famous. The trim is largely blue, with small portions of red (the second abdominal segment, the 'beard', the base of the next, the top of the pelvic joint, the fin on the forearms and the base of the feet). The model is very detailed, especially the wings. Its various joints are very stable as well, and it can be made to hold many poses that other models would simply sag if such maneuvers were forced. The paint job is quite good, there is almost no bleeding, and said paint is the perfect balance of matte and gloss; it looks extremely realistic. The one area where I am dissatisfied are the ankle joints; the forward guards are attached oddly, and they don't mesh well with the rest of the mechs legs. Small drawback, though.
This model comes with at least a dozen interchangeable parts (Beware, small children. Actually, I think most of them are too small to be choking hazards...). The covered vulcan cannons on the shoulders can be switched out for open ones, the Twin Buster Rifle's power packs detach and are replaced with a unified version when the Rifle is combined into its single unit, as are the grips, and it has at least eight hands to use for various combinations. The Beam Sabers can be stored in the rear wing joints, and they're slightly undersized and too glossy, in my opinion, but this is a small drawback. The blades are green. The rear wings are installed collapsed and can be expanded to their full size via insertable tabs (a feature I've never seen on a Wing Zero action figure before).
All in all, an excellent buy, and I'd certainly do it again. Unless you're a modelmaker or you somehow manage to get your hands on an Arch Enemy series Wing Gundam Zero, this is the model for you. Worth every penny. The box even comes with a velcro flap so you can open the front without breaking the seal, if you're so inclined to not open the thing and play with it a bit (come on, let your inner child out! You know you want to.)

Extended MSIA: Wing Gundam ZeroThe Wing Zero Gundam is cited as being the most powerful unit of the Post Colony Period. The Wing Zero is comprised of graceful angular armor plating, and is equipped with a pair of expansive angel-like wings. Like any other Gundam in the series, the Wing Zero is intricately detailed and is loaded to the gills with articulation.
