HG Gundam Vidar

This is my first gunpla kit and it was a blast. Construction is easy and satisfying, the articulation is good and fun to pose. This might be my first kit, but it definitely won't be my last

Vidar has the tried and tested gundam frame,after stiffening joints the kit is epic and solid able to recreate the famous vidar kick.
Accessories are plentiful,with a little modification the spare sabre blades in waist armor can be used as actual sabre blades.
A very sinister looking mobile suit.
Colour seperation is great but if wanting to paint needs a bit of masking.
A great IBO addition and not too difficult for beginners.

Building the HG Vidar is an enjoyable experience and surprisingly easy (great for beginners). The construction process is relatively straightforward, with clear instructions and snug-fitting parts. Some sections, particularly the leg assembly, demand a bit more attention to detail, making the build slightly more intricate.

This kit also comes equipped with an array of accessories which includes a burst saber, 1 rifle, a pair a handguns and finally its feet can transform into deadly blades.

Its design captures the enigmatic allure of its pilot's alter ego. The intricate detailing and sharp edges evoke a sense of mystery and danger, staying true to the mecha's covert nature. Although I wished for more pronounced panel lines, the model's overall aesthetics align remarkably well with its source material.

The articulation of the HG Vidar is commendable, offering a range of poses that convey the mecha's agility and combat prowess. The joints are well-engineered and allow for smooth movements, enabling enthusiasts to recreate key battle stances. However, certain positions may prove slightly challenging due to the design of the backpack clashing with the shoulder armor. This minor limitation aside, the pose ability ensures dynamic displays that capture the essence of the IBO universe.

Overall, would definitely recommend.
