Project HGUC Zock

This is the 1st HGUC kit i've assembled & also one of the very few villains i have in my collection.
From Gunpla

The MSM-10 Zock is an amphibious type mobile armor which, attributes to its bubbly-stout build. Despite its relatively few pieces of snap-on parts (it's a HGUC grade afterall, how complicated can it get?), its inner frame features high level of detail including a unique mono-eye design which, rotates 360 & can move along the length of 'A' tracks on either side of the face plate.

The most interesting point to note about this model is that every single piece of parts that make up this kit comes in a pair; ~ a mirror-copy counterpart for each piece; making the Zock truly bi-directional ~ no distinction between front or back~!

The other being the unique pincette design ~ looks sturdy enough to do a choke-slam pose on some poor HGUC Gundams... =p

Heavy proportions & bulky armor meant that the Zock is not designed to do acrobatic poses; movement articulation is limited as much as you can see *think of tortoise*

I got this Zock in a bundle with a triple-mono-eye combo kit of HGUC Operation Capture Jaburo, coz they came with the much sought after water-slide decals for the Zock as well.

This kit is only made up of SIX part runners, excluding the polycarp part connector piece; though the end result is fairly impressive.

Looks much more sophisticated with the all decals applied

Just look at the size of that thing~! It's pretty huge... considering that it's of a 1/144 scale, in comparison to the 1/100 MG RX-78-2. I can't begin to fathom the size of it in a 1/100 scale; it would surely dwarf most MG Gundams.
