| This kit is the MG exterior clear parts version released to commemorate Gundam's 30th anniversary. It's essentially the same contents as the original kit with just one extra clear runner added. In other words, it lets you choose between standard armor and clear armor for specific exterior parts, so for the basic kit features please refer to the normal version review — this review only covers the added clear parts.
MG Gouf v2.0 Review
|
◆ Coverage and Effect
This is a typical half-clear setup, with the entire armor on one arm and one leg made clear. The shoulder is a bit of an odd case — only the antennae portion is clear — but the rest of the armor is all done consistently and nicely.
The special clear parts on this kit hit all three marks: high transparency, finely detailed inner armor molds, and a great view of the inner frame through the clear armor. We're talking A-grade quality here.
◆ Difficulty of Swapping
The leg armor assembly is a little complex, but if you follow the manual and remove the parts step by step, the swap is pretty straightforward.
◆ Overall
This kit is easily top-tier among the 30th anniversary Special Clear MGs — one full arm and one full leg are cleanly done in clear, and the quality is outstanding. These clear parts offer more value than just a simple bonus option, and this is definitely worth picking up as a Special Clear MG. :-)
