My main issue with the Lfrith Jiu is that the Tiger Hand expects you to put absolutely microscopic stickers right on top of where its fingers were connected to the runner, which after two and a half hours of building my hands were just too shaky to do. I ended up using a metallic pink Gundam marker which was exactly the right shade. It was messy since it was my first time using a Gundam marker, but it ended up looking great!

I think we should have another mid-tier between Gundarium and Platinum or between Gold and Platinum, whatever it will be, the Gundarium kits will maintain their supreme quality, while new kits can be better evaluated.

Mj2005 has the best rating system in my opinion. It’s just strongly recommended, recommended, recommended, suit yourself, discretionary, and avoid. Shows his clear preferences, but not too specific as to dismiss older kits as outright subpar or crap. Honestly, Mecha’s tier system is bullshit. He calls IBO his favorite line of kits one day, and gives them bronze tier the next day because they’re old. Or he gives the first kind of a certain kit at gundarium tier, then the succeeding kits as platinum just because it feels slightly old or it was done before. Or how about something is almost Gundarium, but it still feels like an HG or something. On what metric!? I think he tries to be objective with regards to engineering and current tech, but just can’t help inserting his biases. Because of that, his criteria are all over the place or just vague. Truth is, you can never have a consistent metric with gunpla since some kits stand the test of time despite modern tech.

Since this is a more niche MS it’s understandable. Since it’s not mainline and pretty much only manga exclusive, they’re not sure if it’ll sell well so they’re doing a P-Bandai run to be safe instead of putting all their eggs in the basket and then it goes belly up

I expected that since it came as P-Bandai, it will come with much more(?) like expressive spare hands, etc. Also I wholeheartedly agree. That smoky clear part apparently too "smoky" so that the glow can't be seen clearly unless you watching it from some angle. Still, gonna purchase it though. I like gunpla with faceplate like that

On a related note the High Grade XGF-01A Gundam Lfrith Anocta is being planned by Bandai. I hope we get an HG XGF-01 Gundam Lfrith Pre-Production Model as well. Both of those were featured in Vanadis Heart.
