Also the leg/backpack pipings are very weird but really nice
Actually, its better than mg model I think
You should buy the mk ii titans as well!
One other interesting bit is that the kit also incorporates the use of these very thing wire like pieces for detailing certain parts to replicate wires, though this is optional and the kit itself looks good without them. The wires also gave me issues, so I decided to leave them out of the build since I dont think they look as good as they could. The color separation is absolutely fantastic, and the only real stickers needed are for the eyes. The kit comes with an absolutely massive amount of decals, as most real grades do. There are a lot of small stickers, so using tweezers is definitely recommended.
The kit comes with a good amount of accessories. It comes with the standard loadout of sword, shield and beam rifle. It also comes with the Hyper Bazooka and the Vulcan Pods. However the Beam Sabers are extremely hard to put into the hands that come with the kit. It might be just an issue with mine, but the included hands do not hold the Beam Sabers securely. While it is possible to get them to stay in the hands, its just not secure enough to be handled well. You can use the trigger finger hand to hold a beam saber reliable, but up close it will look odd.
If you can overcome the shortcomings the RG Gundam MK II looks very good. Just be prepared with some super glue and you will need to put in some extra effort to fix the issues. I still enjoyed building it and it looks great, though the issues it has can be a bit much to handle.
