MG XXXG-00W0 Wing Gundam Zero Customs EW


My very first ancient piece of MG Wing Zero EW. Lately I've been polishing it up for nub marks and stains, not going to paint it thou, not planning to screw it up.

Repair in progress :
The hand - 3 movable parts where MG these days lacks, it can grab more things, but wears down fast and loosen.



 Inner frame - limited only to legs, if someone wants detailed inner frame should consider PG

 Waist - separated into 2 parts, maybe it's for better bending...?



Complete - Without wings





Yes, as you can see the knee is separated(?) part, it somehow looks funny, but help in kneeling.


Fighting Wing ...?


Weapons :

Dual beam sabers - hidden in its wing binders, different from commercial Wing Zero which pulls out from its shoulders?


Twin Buster Rifle - Yes...this is what Wing Zero is about...

Take Flight -

wings wings wings. wait...what??!

A little note about the wings, feels glossy and nice when it just pops out of the box. But, watch out for the "feathers" because it is not plastic. It's some kind of rubber material, and it turns yellow in time if its not taken proper care! The whole wing also takes up dust very quickly, I never paint them, so I simply dip them into water and let it dry to remover the dusts, the panel lines survive so no big problem. The wings are heavy but not as heavy as other kits, so it still can be balanced easily. One last thing, if, you somehow don't want to use it's display stand and insist to let it stand on foot. Make sure, strong winds is far far away from it. Fan, windows etc. You don't want to cry if it fell off and crash landed on earth ... if you know what I mean...



I'll kill you.


Lazer sweep - everyone loves to die this way.

I'm not sure was it me, of was today's MG is getting much fragile and cheap? Maybe it's about the plastics they use? I have been posing a lot with my Wing Zero EW, but the joints doesn't feels too worn off, and it's a 2-3 year old kit and exposed to dust and sunlight. The only incident I have is it crash landed from a cupboard to the ground and broke it's antennae . . . it's the most fragile part after all. For those MG lovers out there, do take care of your MG kits, the more heavier it is the harder it crashes.
