Borrowed the Wings of Light from the Extreme Blast Mode kit for a bit.
Seems to go pretty well with the clear color kit.

You can see the difference between fully transparent and smoky clear.

The MG is the same smoky clear type as the HG Destiny,
but the color seems to come out a bit darker than the HG.

Together with the MG Freedom clear version.

This kit is the MG Destiny Gundam ~ Clear Color version, a limited release for the 2009 Gunpla Expo. It's the smoky clear type that's been trending lately, giving the outer armor a semi-transparent gray look.

The inner frame is a deep dark iron color, and combined with the smoky clear outer armor, the overall impression can feel a little dull. It would've been nicer if the inner frame were a lighter color — since both the internals and the exterior are so dark, the details can actually be hard to make out. On the flip side, compared to a fully transparent clear kit, the silhouette is much more defined, so it does have a strong presence going for it.

As is typical with clear kits, the joints throughout are nice and tight, making it really easy to hold poses — no matter what position you put it in, it locks in perfectly. Anyway, aside from the colors being a bit too dark, this is overall a fun limited kit to build. :-)
