OLD 1/144 Serpent Custom - Together with the 1/144 Gundam Heavyarms Custom.

Together with the 1/144 Gundam Heavyarms Custom.

This is the 1/144 Serpent Custom from the old-release Gundam W Endless Waltz series. Unlike most of the other Endless Waltz kits, which are refined versions of existing Gundam W mobile suits, the Serpent is exclusive to this series. Despite its chunky design, it delivers top-notch articulation and solid joint strength.

That makes posing a lot of fun, and the poses hold really well. The big Double Gatling Gun and Beam Cannon let you pull off some seriously dynamic poses too. All in all, there's very little to complain about with this kit — if you like the look of it, the build quality is right up there with HGUC level, so it's definitely worth recommending as an older release. :-)
