But I did start the Zaku 2.0 that I got a coupe of days ago. Initially I wasn't as impressed about the unboxing as I was with the Z'Gok. It just seemed like I was opening a standard HG kit whereas the Z'Gok had a cool cover thing with a photo over the runners so it felt more satisfying. But I guess the Z'Gok was released back in '95 and I think Bandai probably wanted the kit itself to do the talking because what a kit it has turned out to be so far and I'm only doing the torso inner frame.
This was the progress I got up to on the night the package came in. The cockpit is quite detailed and the inner frame has some nice mechanical work on it too.
And you even get a little reactor for the torso that doubles as a connection to the waist part this was really awesome.
Last night I started doing the piping around the waist which I thought was going to take me ages but it was mostly painless. Apart from actually sliding the armour collars on to the flexible cable the wouldn't slide off because they were too tight. I had to snip the end of the runner off then take the collar off and put it on the pipe.
But otherwise that that he kit has been pretty awesome to build. I just have to figure out how I am going to be able to put the pink clear lenses onto the monoeye.
Which I will probably will do tomorrow night :) I have to complete the Z'Gok first haha
