This kit is the 1/144 Gundam Deathscythe Hell Custom Metal Clear Special Version from the Gundam W Endless Waltz series. Just like its predecessor, it's a kit that combines plated parts and clear parts — the body is made up of plated parts, while the rest consists of clear parts.

The basic build is the same as the standard version, so this review is really just about appreciating the updated visuals. The wings in particular look really nice in clear, wrapping around the body in an Active Cloak style similar to the Wing Gundam Zero Custom. On top of that, the joint strength is solid, so posing this kit is a lot of fun.

Along with the Heavyarms Custom, this is one of the best-looking kits in the Metal Clear series, and it delivers great visual bang for your buck. A really solid kit. :-)
