Kit Review

Straight build + Panel lining

The universal size reference — a cigarette pack comparison. Pretty good presence for its size.

The arms are multi-jointed and connected segment by segment, and the articulation is pretty average despite how it looks..
On the flip side, the range of expression for the hands is quite impressive. The wrists pivot 180 degrees forward and back.

Look at that~~
The legs actually bend a lot more than you'd expect.

The sole detailing is excellent too. (Though the photo doesn't show it very well -.-)

Again, that wrist articulation range is impressive..

Comparison with the HGUC Guncannon and Z'Gok. Not that tall, but wide and chunky..

Comparison shot with the MG big brother. The molded colors are almost identical.

Following the Z'Gok, the Gogg has also been released as an HGUC kit. Just like the Z'Gok, the multi-jointed arms are connected segment by segment with ball joints, which gives it a great sense of realism — but also just like the Z'Gok, the articulation on those multi-joints is less impressive than it looks. ^^; That said, the wrists bend 180 degrees forward and back, which makes it possible to pull off some fairly dynamic poses.

For such a chunky build, the legs can still bend about 90 degrees at the knee, and the waist and head rotate a little too. All things considered, you could say the articulation is pretty good relative to its stocky proportions. The molded colors faithfully represent the Gogg's own color scheme, and they're almost identical to the molded colors on the MG Gogg.

It might seem like a minor kit, but it's actually quite popular among One Year War fans — though not so much here in Korea. With its sumo wrestler-like appearance and that rough, almost brutish look.. The quality is above average, so if you're a First Gundam fan, this seems like a fun, low-pressure build compared to shelling out ¥3500 for the MG. ^^
