It gets worse when you the further you go.
Just snapped this in a few days after finishing up MG Eclipse (which I have to post), and to summarize my experience with it, I had no idea what was going on, for someone who’s been doing this for six years straight.
Anyway, coming from the Eclipse, while the build is much simpler as it’s just combining two Barbatoses in one, the idea is pretty fuckin’ wild.
The build is quite simple, but the base Barbatos is ass and the fitting of the new parts is just bad for some reason. There is quite the use for polycaps, and some parts just don’t want to stay put, which I have to glue it on, and it’s never a problem again. Despite having four legs, all four feet are kinda wobbly, so while there isn’t a balancing problem as of now, there could be over time.
Once I finished the kit, there were quite a few spare parts left. With parts like the first form’s left arm and two complete frames of the arms, I just had to stick then in to give it an extra something. It looks a bit goofy, but since this entire kit is like a WTF idea created to life, I might as well go all out.
Overall, it’s a pretty cool kit. Don’t actually treat it like a taurus like it can carry another Gundam on its back. I… don’t advise it.
