FINAL THOUGHTS:
Personally, and besides stating the obvious, this is way, way beyond my level of comprehension and capabilities. It's just too time consuming for the causal collector like myself, even-though the temptation to challenge myself with the enormous (pun intended) task sometimes does occur in my mind. The pricing discount on the Amiami Japan website, is a life saver to those who intend to buy this humongous, intricate and mind-blowing piece to add to their Perfect Grade collection. While I am strictly a Transformers fan-boy, sometimes the sheer force of all things Japan-inspired really does deserve the dose of attention and admiration it deserves, even though for a short moment. In addition, before I forget, the blog post inspiration was spurred by a little conversation I managed to have today with another GUNDAM enthusiast and colleague. Seems to me personally, he should just forget the niggles and just tackle this monster head on-- lol! --as too, to those how are steely enough and not to mention experienced enough to handle the complexity and all the hardships associated with the art of GUNDAM model building!
Eh, I'll just stick to Robot Spirits or Gundam Fix Figurations, thanks very much!
