   Great Starter Kit I had previously bought an MG God Gundam over a year ago and in the move I lost it so when looking for something to waste my time doing than some relaxing model kit. The model kit is a great piece for those that love the series and are looking to have a great time. The piece itself is my first RG grade at first I thought I had chewed more so than I could handle but once I passed the initial cube it was fun. The Gundam itself is my favorite so for me it was a little great hobby if you’re going to be ocd with the build please note some part are not 100% perfect even if you cut it with precision it’s not a deal breaker but it’s at times a little jarring but the fun outbeats the cons. I would recommend this piece to anyone who loves Seed/Seed Destiny

   Solid Kit Pretty good kit, but with a few flaws. First, you have to be VERY careful when assembling the wings, because it is extremely easy to accidentally snap the gold inner pieces. Thankfully I only accidentally broke one, so the rest of it is fine.
   
   The other major flaw is this is the most unbalanced kit I've experienced yet. The wings are so heavy that if you don't have an action stand, don't bother trying to pose it. I spent about 30 minutes trying every pose possible and it would fall over every time.
   
   Those problems aside, it's still a great kit and really cool to look at it. The gold skeleton is definitely super cool!

   First RG Love the golden wings. Did break a few pieces, but that's just on me. Seems really customizable too.

   Pleasant build, but the finished product can't take advantage of all the features of a RG design. This kit was a pleasure to build, but the flaws became apparent as I started working on the decals and posing. The shoulder joints appear to be made to maximize flexibility and unfortunately that makes them very weak. The arms popped off more than once as I attempted to rotate them about that shoulder joint. That might be my bad if those parts were supposed to be flexed/exercised prior to assembly to loosen them up, but the result for my build was that some parts which were supposed to move were very stiff. This resulted in other joints (such as those shoulders) trying to go beyond their intended range of motion. Similarly, the wings have a lot of moving parts so it takes a lot of patience to get them into the desired positions. As a result I'm displaying this one in a very simple pose since I got tired of popping parts off.

   Go full burst mode!!! Love this build. This was my 4 model but my first RG. I just love the RG inner frame design. Posing it is not too bad as long as you have a action base. It is a little back heavy with the wings. Overall I love it. I added a little Gundam Marker metallic paint job for a little more pop! It’s definitely an eye catcher in my display case and it’s competing with my Sazabi Ver ka. Wish I could post a picture to show it’s true glory!

   First kit ever! The gold parts drew me in, I gotta be honest. I didn't really know what I should've expected, but it was really fun and relatively simple to understand and put together despite having shaky hands and being a complete beginner. When I'm more confident in my skills, I might come back and get a new kit and sand/paint/seal the parts before assembly to do it proper justice. <3

   favorite gundam, done justice and THEN SOME! This was my second RG kit and, now knowing what I was in for, he was a real fun build. Strike Freedom is my favorite gundam by far and Seed/Seed Destiny is my favorite series; it's so awesome to have a good representive for my growing collection!

    Amazing Build! For those of you looking for 1/144th model kits and for those that are gundam seed fans buy this immediately because this is the most perfect strike gundam Real Grade thats 1/144th. Its a bit more challenging to actually put together but if you've built many High Grades and you've built a MG then you should be fine! (I highly recommend not to buy this as your first gunpla model kit) The wings are golden chrome colored and so is the body main frame in the inside of the armor. You may have to do a bit of articulation testing when its fully built because it will seem like the joints and arms, legs are still but they aren't (Be careful when doing the articulation test). Of course the strike freedom real grade comes with all the weapons shown in the show which is absolutely amazing! Also Warning about the stickers on this model kit, Of course its optional to put the stickers on but the eyes and head stickers are literally near impossible to simply put on with your fingers or standard tweezers so you might want to get specialized gunpla model kit tweezers that can pick up tiny parts and stickers. This is way better than the High Grade Strike freedom 1/144 model kit. I highly recommend that all gundam seed fans pick this up immediately! (For beginners pick this up after you build 8 different types of High Grades or at least have built a Master Grade model kit) And for those that did not know about this but there are special effect parts that come sold separately for the Strike Freedom Real Grade and there is one for the Real Grade Destiny Gundam. They are exclusive and I'm not entirely sure but I think its a Bandai exclusive or a non Bandai exclusive.
