Joint Performance and Pose Options

After gentle sanding, panel lines respond well to washes or fine liners. Apply the included decals carefully and finish with a protective clear coat to unify the look and protect painted areas from wear.

For modellers who value compact engineering and expressive articulation, the RG 1/144 MS-06R-1A UMA Lightning's Zaku II makes for an engaging and well detailed build.
