This kit is the MG Zaku II Dozle Zabi Use, released as a Bandai Online Shop Club G exclusive. It's the first time Dozle Zabi's personal unit has ever been made into a plastic model, which makes it pretty special. On top of that, the premium engraving seals and the oversized Heat Hawk are both included, giving it a noticeably more polished feel compared to other limited releases.

The molded color comes out as an ambiguous green all over, and honestly the color itself is a bit underwhelming -.-; It photographs with lower saturation than it actually looks, so in person the green is a bit stronger — but it's definitely going to be a love-it-or-hate-it kind of thing. That said, the gold engraving seals do help cover for it to some extent.

The real highlight of this limited release is ultimately those premium engraving seals, and they're honestly the best quality seals/decals I've seen from any Bandai product. The application method is the same as dry decals, but the adhesion is much stronger so they're actually easier to apply. Curved areas like the shoulders are a little tricky to get on cleanly, but the material itself is tough and the gold reflectivity is strong, so the effect after application is absolutely top-notch — I'd give it full marks ^^

The oversized Heat Hawk added exclusively for the Zaku II Dozle Zabi Use has solid color separation and great proportions, making it one of the best weapons ever included with a limited release kit. And if you look closely, there are other details that set it apart from a standard Zaku — both shoulders are fitted with spike armor, and the hand guards and head antenna design have also been customized.

Overall, the base molded color is a bit iffy, but the engraving seals and oversized Heat Hawk alone — things you simply won't find in any other kit — make this well worth picking up. If you're a fan of the MG Zaku 2.0, this is a must-have unique limited release! :-)
