HG The-O
After reading Falldogs review at Otaku Revolution ( http://otakurevolution.com/content/mg-the-o-a-review)
I was disappointed to hear that the MG wasn't all that great, also the box is freaking HUGE witch was one of the reasons why I wasn't able to get it in the first place.
When I was choosing my birthday Gundams I was pleased to see they had a HG version of The-0 available.
Personally I think it looks awesome, the extra arms at the bottom are a bit of a gimmick but they do give The-O a unique flavor and they are also quite fun to pose.
I gave some brush painting a go to ad in all of the green detailing.
I filled up the little pools and then once they were dry I scraped the excess off with my scalpel and then buffed the plastic back to a shine.
If you like the look of The-O the HG version is a good alternative to go for, again the posability isnt that great but its quite a quality built model.

HG RGM-89S Stark Jegan
I got to choose a few HG Gundams for my birthday the other day.
The colour scheme and overall look of the Stark Jegan really caught my eye.
It has a real tough look, like its ready to take on just about anything.
Out of the box the plastic quality is very good, the green and grey go very well together, nub placement is also good, there are a few tricky ones like on the curved part of the helmet but thats about it.
Im very pleased with the way this model turned out, the only thing I have added is abit of yellow paint above the missiles to match the box art ( The only place I could fit my Gundam marker into )
The kit has alot of character and looks very nice in my collection, I would definitely recommend picking this one up.
