Kit Review

Straight build

It's the same configuration as the white version, just with different molded colors.

The same GM-exclusive parts and stickers as the white version are included, but in gray.

Let's try combining the GM head and short legs from the SDCS CS Frame [Gray].

It's mostly hidden by the skirt, but the rounded thighs really do suit the Zaku.

The Silhouette Booster [Gray] has been released as an option set for the SD Cross Silhouette line. It's essentially the same kit as the previously released Silhouette Booster [White], just with different molded colors — seemingly intended for use with darker-colored mobile suits. That said, looking at the color scheme alone, aside from the rounded Zaku thighs, the color combinations actually feel more out of place than the white version.

Like the white version, it includes new hands, short thighs, extended forearms for the SD frame, and extended thighs for the CS frame. Using these, you can add three additional frame size configurations on top of the existing SD and CS frames. For a full breakdown of all five frame variations, check out the Silhouette Booster [White] review.

So yeah, you might wonder why this color variant even exists — but I'd say its value lies in giving you a slightly wider range of options. :-)
