   The definitive HG Char Zaku II Pros: More decal options, good selection of weapons, great molded details compared to previous Zaku II kits, greater range of articulation, innovative weapon storage on its thruster pack.
   
   Cons(?): The nose piece holding the tubing to the head was loose; a little adhesive resolved that issue. No unique variation of weapon or equipment.
   
   The Red Comet Ver. of the Zaku II builds upon the already impressive "The Origin" Zaku II line. The white lines denotes a commander suit, reflecting Char's promotion to Lt. Commander after the Battle of Lorum. The unit insignia on the lower left armor skirt reflects Char's new command of the Musai class light cruiser "Falmer" and its respective mobile suit complement.
   
   "The Origins" HG MS-06 Zaku II C-6/R6 Type kit includes decals for Char's Falmer units and will compliment this kit well.

   Splendid As Always A very very very detailed kit, even with it being an HG. This is on par with a RG kit along with it being highly flexible and does not hold back at all while posing. An absolutely must-grab kit.

   A great Zaku II, and a great starter kit My first model and a very nice one at that. It feels sturdy, and even without a base, can easily stand and pose. My only complaint is the quantity of stickers is a bit overwhelming, with most being microscopic accent pieces.

   Excellent HG kit, impressive panel lining Very impressed with these HG kits lately. The panel lining on this model is impressive and easy to work with. Only issue is the waist part that connects the backpack hoses does not connect easily and may need superglue. Other than that, its an impressive kit all around!

   An HG kit befitting the true heir of Zeon! This is it, the best HG Zaku II! (as far as I'm concerned) This is the second kit I ever bought, and it cemented my love of both Zeon MSs, and Char Aznable, the true hero of the Gundam franchise. If you're looking to add a dash of red to your collection, this is your kit!

   Maybe we need a MG version. I do not enjoy this kit. I love the RX78 origin kit, but I prefer the master-grade version. So I believe a master-grade charz origin kit may change my opinion then

   A must-have if you enjoyed Origin Good weapon selection, nice details, a large number of stickers from a HG kit
   the only negatives are the snout needs to be glued on, colorwise I'd suggest a different Char Zaku II kit if you don't have a decent camera or want more pink from the design and finally you can't make the gun line up properly with the arm due to the weapon's stock

   Lots of fun First Char Zaku II ever built, and I love it. Since it is "The Origin" version, there are definitely much more details compared to the regular HGUC. Comes with plenty of accessories, my only complaint would be the piece holding the nozzle at the head tends to be loose, so your carpet may eat it up. Best that you use glue or something to keep it in place. Asides from that, the kit was enjoyable and great looking out of the box. The decal included has some unique and nice designs, but they aren't the best so I would definitely try to get waterslide decals or something instead.

   Sticker bombs Did my best on putting decals all together but kind of disappointed for examples on the pictures in the instruction and boxes they're lines details on Char's Zaku and you probably have to paint the black line yourself.

    Great first build! This is the first Gunpla kit that I've built and I'm super impressed! The kit looks awesome, is fun to build, and is very articulate. My only complaint is the amount of stickers that come with the kit, but from what I've read most ORIGINS kits come with a large amount of detail stickers. Luckily they aren't color correcting, so if you don't want to put them on, the kit still looks great!
