So yesterday after work I ended up heading to my local gunpla store and ended up picking up the HGUC Dreissen and HGUC Doven Wolf. If you are ever in Calgary and looking for a place to buy gunpla and other models and figures I highly suggest this place. The owner is a very friendly guy, and the prices their are really hard to beat. I would say they come close to places like Hobby Link Japan, plus you get to support the local guy at the same time. The only con is that it is really small inside and having more then 2 people at once feels very tight. The place is called Animodeling Zone and is downtown on the upper floor of Dragon Mall.
Anywho, as for this model itself. This will be my first HG kit that I have work on since I really got into gunpla. I plan on painting this guy right away, so expect a WIP coming up pretty soon.
It didn't take very long to snap build as I got it after work and finish it by the end of the night. If you have build a MG, PG or RG, you should know that the level of detail doesn't even come close, but isn't that bad for this being a HG after all and is less then half the price of a MG.
I was quite surprise to see that this kit does have some slight inner fame on the arms and legs. I did wish it come with a part for the mono eye other then a sticker, but I am planning on modding something for that.
The overall movement for this kit is not the best because of it's bulky armor, which limits it's movement quite a bit. But it is quite stable and has no problems standing or holding any of it's weapons.
It comes with it's Giant Bazooka, six Tri-Blades (3 of them open and 3 closed),
Beam Lancer, Beam Tomahaw, the combine Beam Lancer and Beam Tomahaw together, Heat Saber, and the 3-Barrel Beam Cannon mounted on each hand.
This kit is pretty tall as it is almost the same height of units such as Kshatriya, making it almost as big as some of the smaller MG kits like those from the wing series.
Anywho time for pics:
