HG Tall Strike Gundam Glitter - Together with the HGCE Aile Strike Gundam.

Together with the HGCE Aile Strike Gundam.

This kit is the HG Tall Strike Gundam Glitter, released as a Club G (Premium Bandai) online exclusive. Based on the HGCE Aile Strike Gundamreleased as a standard release, the design feels like a significant weapons upgrade. Considering the number of newly sculpted parts added, it's been remodeled quite nicely into a distinctly different style.

Starting with the main body, the head, chest, skirt, knees, and feet have all been redesigned, and large binders have been added to the shoulders. The binders can rotate and move in multiple directions, and two short pistols have been newly added as weapons. You can also attach beam saber beam parts to these short pistols, which makes some pretty unique bayonet-style poses possible.

The core frame and Aile pack itself are the same as before, and it comes as a high-quality HG kit that still delivers excellent articulation and joint strength. The back and shoulders are quite bulky, so the center of gravity is weighted toward the upper body — but the frame is solid enough that standing poses are no problem at all. Thanks to that, posing is easy and poses hold well, making this a kit with virtually no frustration when it comes to articulation.

All in all, it's a kit that's been nicely upgraded with a fuller, fresh design compared to the original. And since the original kit was already great quality to begin with, if the style appeals to you, this seems like a really fun kit well worth picking up. :-)
