A revive Stamen would be a dream, but the old HG really isnt all that bad. When you put into perspective its from 2002 its honestly better than some of the hgs that followed it in later years. The folding arms puts it way above hgs from its time and the back skirt moving is still something Bandai leaves out of modern kits.

As someone who's built the HG and MG Stamen one thing that's always bugged me is the lack of the beam jite that's supposed to attach to the beam rifle. Also, canonically the Stamen didn't use a core block system like it's predecessor, Zephyranthes, which is why a core fighter isn't included, or at least that's my reasoning.
