Since the hair is all wild and disheveled, quite a few parts are combined to bring out the three-dimensional look.

Following the pretty-boy pilots from Gundam SEED, this time Setsuna F Seiei from Gundam 00 has been released as a Figure-rise Burst kit. The basic construction is the same as Athrun/Kira, delivering an impressive look with a bit of stickers/seals and solid color separation.

While the previous Kira and Athrun kits had poses that leaned slightly to one side, Setsuna's pose is almost perfectly upright. That said, his eyes are angled as if glancing to the left. His hair is particularly wild and disheveled, which is probably why it's broken up into as many as 11 separate parts to recreate it. Thanks to that, the three-dimensional effect is really impressive and makes for a fun build.

Personally, I feel the sculpt turned out even better than the pretty-boy pilots from Gundam SEED, and with a clear material applied to the eyes, they have an even more vivid, sparkling look. Either way, if you're a fan of 00 and its pilot characters, this seems like a gem you won't want to miss. :-)
