BB#313 Gundam Exia SD

For such a tiny kit, the articulation surprised me — I got the Exia into a solid kneeling pose without anything popping off. Panel lines are crisp and the SD proportions keep that chunky charm. Took me maybe an hour with nippers, and it's now sitting on my desk instead of in the box.

The classic Exia color separation on this tiny SD is way crisper than I expected for the size, no stickers needed on the main chest vents. Built it in one evening while watching TV, and it sits perfectly on my monitor stand without tipping.

Snapping the little GN sword onto the Exia's arm took me back to building kits as a kid. The SD proportions look great on a shelf and the classic color separation means almost no painting. For the price it's a fun, quick build that only took me an afternoon.
