This kit is the MG exterior clear parts version released to commemorate the 30th anniversary of Gundam. It includes everything from the original kit plus one additional set of clear runners. In other words, it lets you choose between standard armor and clear armor for certain exterior parts, so for the basic kit features please refer to the normal version review — this review only covers the added clear parts.

MG Char's Z'Gok Review

◆ Areas of Application and Effect

The entire backpack, both arms, and the waist/crotch area have been made clear. Compared to other kits, the boundaries between the clear and non-clear sections are very distinct, giving it a strong personality — it feels like exactly the middle section of the body has been made clear across the board. Since this is a kit with great detail to begin with, the internal frame looks excellent and the inner armor molds are finely done, so the clear effect comes out really well.

◆ Difficulty of Swapping

Since the kit had great buildability to begin with, swapping the armor is very easy. It feels like you could switch between standard and clear armor anytime without much hassle.

◆ Overall Impressions

This kit checks all the boxes for what a good clear parts version should be — excellent inner armor molds, a great internal frame, and easy swapping. If anything, it almost makes you wish the clear coverage were even wider, since only the center section rather than a full half of the body is made clear. Still, it's a great clear parts kit. :-)
