No.19 Gun Cannon

Up The kit is molded in three colors, red, white and gray.  It contains sixteen parts, and head, shoulders, legs and feet are separate, and they are posable.  The proportion is similar to Bandai's HG UC Gun Cannon, so it looks pretty good.  

The head has two antennas, but they look dull, so they have to be sharpened or replaced with metal rods.

The torso is represented with front and rear halves, and the back pack is a separate gray piece. The cannons are posable, but the tips have to be drilled.

The arms are one piece each, and inner side of both arms are hollowed out, so they have to be filled with putty.  The shoulder seems a little under sized, and they would look better if enlarged with putty.  

The legs are two piece assembly on each side, and the foot piece is separate and posable as shown.  The inside of the thigh needs to be filled with putty just like the arm.  Since the knee armor is molded with thigh and leg, it should look better if the part is cut and glued back to create a gap.

The weapon included in this kit is the rifle, and it looks pretty good.  It has adequate thickness, and the barrel is not oval but circular.

Other than those hollowed out areas, the only problem that I can think of are the under sized shoulders and unrealistic look of the hands, and when those are corrected, the model will look very good.
