This is by far the most kick a** model kit / gundam i've ever built ! or perhaps ever been produced ! apart from PG series.
For a monster machine like this, with parts sticking out all over, and which is so top heavy it cannot stand on its own, the naming of "Ex-S" seems appropriate, considering the homonym "excess."
But gosh, it's sooo sharp looking... Let me come back to that point about standing up by itself: It can't. At first, when I saw that this kit came with a display stand to hold it up, I was greatly dissapointed, as I really was looking forward to building it. But then I started thinking about all the other Gundam kits of mine that have fallen over and broken or lost parts when I had them posed someplace, and I began to think that maybe a display stand isn't such a bad idea after all.
Ex-S can transform into the long-range "G-Cruiser" mode which i didnt transform it to because of the complexity of the kit itself made me having 2nd thoughts about doing so.. T_T!
The display stand itself also converts into a mode specifically designed for displaying the kit when it's in ship mode. A whopping 31 runners of parts in all! Get ready for hours of cuttin' 'n' snappin' with this baby!
Now behold one of the GEMs in Gundam !
