With the frame material changed to a yellowish metallic molded color, the durability has taken a hit. T_T
Whether it's a tolerance issue or not, one hip joint was so stiff it actually snapped during posing,
and the weapon joint parts that mount the mega cannon on the right shoulder break with even the slightest rotation.
I barely managed to repair everything and finish the review, but this is something you really need to watch out for..

This kit is the RG Tallgeese III [Titanium Finish], released as a Club G (Premium Bandai) online exclusive. RG Tallgeese III It's essentially the same kit with titanium finish coating added, and outside of the plated runners, some parts also use metallic molded colors.

Since this is simply a plated version, all the contents and gimmicks are identical to the original, and it still delivers excellent articulation and joint strength — but there's one critical warning to keep in mind: the durability of the frame, which uses metallic molded plastic, has become worryingly fragile. In my case, one hip joint was so stiff it snapped during posing, and the joint part that mounts the mega cannon on the right shoulder broke the very first time I rotated it. T_T I ended up having to painstakingly repair everything just to finish the review, and honestly, having things snap so easily was a real gut punch.

Darker-colored metallic molded parts generally feel pretty solid, but the yellowish metallic molded parts used on the Tallgeese III seem to be slightly softer and came out with weaker durability — that's the root of the problem. On top of that, whether it's a bad match between the material and the mold, the joint strength actually ended up tighter than the standard version, creating a setup that's highly prone to breakage. It seems like even Bandai didn't see this coming — it's truly a disastrous combo of stiffer joints paired with softer plastic. If you're planning to build this kit, be especially careful when moving the hip joints, the weapon joint parts, and the backpack joint parts — those three spots in particular.

That said, since there's a bit more white armor surface compared to the regular Tallgeese, the titanium finish effect does look even more striking here. And thanks to the undergates, gate marks are barely visible, which is a nice bonus. The price jumped significantly from ¥2800 to ¥7000 for the titanium finish, but it's fair to say this plated kit is worth the money.

So while the quality as a plated kit is excellent, this is one you'll definitely want to remember comes with a durability concern on the frame parts. That said, if you're a fan of the Tallgeese series and prefer the titanium finish look, it's still a kit well worth considering. :-)
