Finished the freedom Gundam!
Here are my thoughts on it; I'll be switching between the action base this comes with, and a regular action base 1 throughout the review since the one with the kit is only good for mid-air poses. Although it's cool to see one of these in a kit, they aren't always very good. Starting with the beam sabers, it has two which can be stored on the hip armor. And for the Darth maul fans among you, they can be combined into a dual-bladed beam saber; Moving onto the shield... It isn't exactly the best. There's a small segment on the left side that collides with the shoulder a LOT. But I find that disconnecting the handle helps a bit; For the beam rifle, it's pretty average, although usually they're just gray. It also has the useless handle on the side that I imagine pretty much nobody uses. It's pretty common on these models, that's why I never mention it. As for the final weapon, two canons fold out from the wings, and two fold out from the hip armor. It is MENACING; Side note: these also have a useless handle on the side. As for a couple other notes, the opening cockpit on this kit is better than most other master grades, this time you can actually see the pilot! Most times you can't even tell there's anything in there. This kit also doesn't use any polycaps in the joints so a lot of them are pretty tight, definitely be careful while posing it. Overall a pretty good kit, 7.5/10. It was pretty backheavy due to the wings (which I kind of expected) but I didn't think it'd be as much of a problem on the action base. I WAS WRONG. However with enough determination I was still able to put it in pretty good poses.
