At first, when cutting a few pieces out of the sprue and starting to fit them together, I was really worried about some unsightly connection points that were very obviously screaming “this is a plastic model”. As I built more parts up around these pieces, the visible flaws were rapidly covered by the various layers, positioned precisely to avoid any such problem areas being visible. It's an impressively designed piece of engineering for something made of such small parts. It's a fairly complicated build for a High Grade model, but it looks amazing as a result. Without stickers, the model has a few areas that aren't quite screen-accurate in colour, but it still looks great, and the stickers are easy to apply – although a couple are large enough to question why they used stickers instead of separate parts, since they already have sprues in the necessary colours.
