This kit is the Balgray, released as No. 13 in the Mecha Collection Yamato 2199 series. Mecha Collection LambeaAs a sister ship, the only structural difference is that the front armor has a pointed shape. Aside from that, the rest of the sculpt is identical according to the lore.

So for this review, just paying close attention to the changed deck shape and molded color should be enough. There are no moving parts, but it still boasts impressive detail and sculpt quality.

It's great to see so many Yamato ships being miniaturized in such a small yet detailed way. Personally, I do have a soft spot for this kind of multi-deck space battleship design. Either way, it's a solid enough kit quality-wise, so if the style appeals to you, it seems like a fun little build to enjoy. :-)
