The Delta Plus Porcelain Custom - Jet Mode.


I have yet to review this in transformation, so I guess this is good time as any.
The transformation was horrid. I can't tell you how much of an effort this took. The manual tells to fold certain flaps, move other gauges, lift some latch, and it goes on. But the directions were awful. It's like they gave up giving instructions one at a time once the kit was done completely.
Anyways, here's what I got out of the whole experience.

Pros:

  • Beautifully done - This model is definitely spot on to the one in the series even in transformation.
  • The look - Obviously, sexy as hell.
  • Mobility - Stunning; absolutely stunning. I can't fathom how great this kit is. It's a must-get for any UC or just Gundam fan.
Cons:

  • Transformation - As I mentioned before, it was an utter pain trying to set this guy together. It was the instructions that confused me to fold certain areas before others but it was not given (not because of the text, but because given arrows were not numbered).
  • Weight - I had to tighten the screw on the platform to keep this guy stable and up. I'm surprised it hasn't tipped over yet.
  • Finicky - Definitely has some gimmicks that may annoy anyone. So pieces won't slide into certain places where they need to be places, as for others just keep doing it without the need to.

Overall, a great kit. If you love any MS that are able to transform, get this kit NOW. Remember, this is a variation from the MSN-00100 Hyaku Shiki (yes, the beautiful gold Gundam!). This is also the concept that lead to the design of the MSN-001 Delta Gundam.

Thanks for reading and be ready for more in the future~!
