   Badass design and worth every penny. The Hajiroboshi may not be the most high-profile Iron-Blooded Orphan design, but the kit is more than worth owning for any fan of the show or its design. Everything is stable and it can be posed in almost any way you want it thanks to the range of motion on all the joints. The rifle and mace may be pretty small and plain-looking, but the amazing crab shield more than carries the kit's weight in terms of accessories with its unique shape, concept, and gimmicks. If you're the kind of person who loves to display your kits in scenes, you'll get a lot of mileage out of the crab shield and show it grabbing and about to punch its needle through another mobile suit. Though there are quite a few color correcting stickers, the majority of them are for small red color apps on the main body and are very easy to put on and look just fine, and an added bonus is that some of the larger areas like the red knee section and yellow vents are actually color separated pieces. The majority of the stickers will go onto the crab shield which admittedly will look rather plain without them, but I find that they fold over very well and look nearly indistinguishable from plastic once applied. The largest stickers are the purple section on the "wings" of the thrusters attached to the back skirt, but these went on without a fuss and as with the crab shield, look identical to plastic. Just about the only other gripe I could raise about this kit is that it feels rather "soft" so while it will hold any pose just fine, it may feel a bit finnicky when you're moving it around and trying to set up said pose. However, this is still an amazing kit and I would enthusiastically recommend this to anyone who's thinking of picking it up!
