P. Larry Excellent product guaranteed by Bandai quality and an extraordinary commercial service, that of 1001Hobbies. Attention: the character arrives disassembled, which means that, in the Gunpla tradition, it can be assembled without glue and with the help of a pair of good pliers to separate the various pieces. Good fun! *
