Great and easy build, only issue I had with it was the shoulder pads when rotating the arms. Cement it should fix the issue.

Read MoreGunpla (plastic model kits) are a snap together assembly and do not need plastic cement to complete. We always recommend having some plastic cement handy as a part of your modeler's tool kit. If you prefer to fix your model in a particular pose then plastic cement will work. Plastic cement is also perfect to use if a joint is loose. Apply plastic cement in a single thin layer and allow it to dry completely before test fitting. Re-apply more cement if necessary.
Gunpla (plastic model kits) are designed to be built and displayed without the need for painting. Kits are molded in different colours replicating the colours of the actual mecha from the Gundam series. A technique called colour separation, where multiple parts of the model are molded in different colours on the same sprue is also used. Gundam kits often include stickers or water-slide decals that can be applied to the model to enhance its appearance. Some Gunpla kits come with pre-painted parts or parts with pre-applied details, such as metallic or translucent finishes.
Many modelers still choose to paint their kits to customize and add further detail. Painting allows for more creativity and personalization, enabling modelers to achieve unique effects, weathering, and colour schemes that may not be available out of the box. However, the kits are designed to be enjoyable and visually appealing even without painting, making them accessible to a wide range of hobbyists.
The green Cross Silhouette Frame is an upgrade unit designed to enhance your existing SD Gundam Cross Silhouette (CS) kits. It offers several improvements: Increased Height and Proportion: This frame boosts your SD Gundam's overall size, making it stand out more and giving it a more "proportional" look compared to the standard SD format. Articulation Boost: The green frame features ball-jointed hips and knees, adding greater flexibility and dynamic posing options for your Gundam. Customization Potential: The frame's modular design allows you to swap parts between green and red CS frames, mix and match with other CS parts, and even create original combinations for unique customizations.
While primarily designed for SD Gundam Cross Silhouette models, the green frame can be compatible with other SD kits with some modifications. Some models might require minor adjustments or custom parts to fit perfectly. Online communities and resources offer tutorials and tips for maximizing compatibility.
The green Cross Silhouette Frame comes as a snap-fit kit, meaning you don't need glue or tools to assemble it. The parts simply click together, making it easy for both beginners and experienced modelers.
The green frame itself comes with the necessary parts for assembly. However, it doesn't include any weapons, armor, or other accessories. These typically need to be purchased separately or transferred from your existing SD Gundam kits.
Whether the green frame is worth it depends on your preferences and goals. If you're looking to add height, articulation, and customization options to your SD Gundam CS kits, it's a great choice. However, if you're happy with the standard SD size and articulation, and prefer a complete model with included accessories, it might not be a necessary purchase.
