Bandai Hobby - Gundam Wing - #38 Gundam Epyon, Bandai Spirits RG 1/144 Model Kit

My son loves this. He said it was well worth the wait. It was a challenge to put together, yet satisfying when it was done.

Awesome kit, easy to build and bandais quality control is still great.

This kit felt great to build, not too difficult and came out looking great. The transformation is simple and doesn't compromise the rest of the model kit like the RG Zeta Gundam. The kit looks slightly different from the anime, but the changes look good (little dragon mouths on the feet that can open when in flight mode, slightly different wings, etc.) Great color separation too. The heat whip of the kit also comes as one pre-molded piece which makes it so that you don't have to tediously assemble each section of the whip, makes the whip feel stronger, and easy to set in dynamic poses by rotating pieces of the whip. Accessory-wise the kit only comes with a beam saber, shield, and heat whip; but that's because the Epyon didn't really use anything else so it wouldn't make sense to include a rifle or other handheld weapon. Comes with a large sticker sheet for adding additional superfluous details, although the piece for the eyes is color correct which allows you to skip applying those annoying eye stickers if you choose which is a nice bonus.

Very fun and rewarding build. All the parts are stable and there’s incredible detail in the model. Theres lots of posability especially if you have a stand. My first ever real grade gundam super impressed.

Easily my favorite RG I have done. The blade and eyes glow under UV for a good effect. Super sturdy and poses very easy. A must have kit for anyone. I could build this kit several times and always be amazed by it.

son very happy good

This was my first gundam model kit and I thoroughly enjoyed assembling it. The Epyon is such a beautiful mobile suit, and it is very cool to look at. My fingers hurt like crazy for a couple of days after, so I purchased some nippers to use on my next kit which helped tremendously. There are a few times when it’s difficult to do what the instructions are asking due to the incredibly small size of the parts you’re working with, but I still had a lot of fun putting it together. The finished product is durable, but the wings do add a lot of top weight making it easy to topple over if the stance isn’t perfect.

I love how far the Real Grade line has come over the years. This thing is, to me, more detailed than the larger Master Grade and it was a blast to build. The Heat Whip is pure Bandai voodoo: you don't have to worry about cutting off numerous tiny parts, sanding them, and assembling them: it's all one piece on the runner for you to snip off, saving you a lot of time. If I had one complaint, it would be that the included stickers look awful on it: the edges are way too noticeable and jarring, so I removed them. If you buy this, do what I should have done and look at getting some third party waterslide decals to go with it.

完成してませんが、このキットが素晴らしいです

Kit so good made me cry twice Ok jokes apart this is generally a good kit, it's looks cool,is good quality and has better articulation than most of the real grade kits put there. One downside bandai show have added water decals in such an high quality kit

Got this as a surprise for my friend. I just picked the coolest one tbh, but it's now his favourite. I've sent it built and it does look fantastic

Fue un regalo para mi novio y le encantó, perfecto para los amantes de Gundam

A qualidade do plástico e da montagem são incríveis. Tudo encaixa perfeitamente sem nenhum esforço, a separação de cores é linda demais e fazer poses é super divertido. Único porém são os adesivos, que ficam aparentes no vermelho escuro e não fica tão bom, mas nada que um topcoat não ajude.
