Expert Review

<General notes on the EG line> The EG (Entry Grade) is a product manufactured at Bandai's Chinese factory in 2011, and it's a beginner-friendly gunpla concept similar to the FG (First Grade). Basically, these were planned as event exclusives rather than retail releases — in Asian regions, they were distributed free of charge to customers registered on Bandai's mailing list during special promotional periods. They were also used as hands-on assembly kits at various gunpla-related events, and some shops sold them for around ¥300–500. The EG line is characterized by roughly 3 molded colors and a manual printed on the inside of the box. A parts separator is also included so you can pop the parts off without nippers. Overall, the sculpt and proportions are pretty decent, but since the part count is low, there are quite a few hollow areas here and there. In terms of articulation, the elbows and knees are fixed — typical of a standard No Grade 1/144 — though joint strength is solid. The included seals aren't great quality either, so this is really more of a kit for experiencing simple assembly rather than focusing on looks or posing. Since it's an event exclusive gunpla, you can't really expect top-notch quality, but it's worth checking out just to see what they came up with. ----------------------------- This particular kit is the EG 1/144 Strike Gundam. Like the previous kits, there are hollow areas on the inner forearms and thighs, and on top of that, you can also spot hollow areas on the back of the side skirts. The proportions are slightly taller and slimmer than the HG, and since it came out after both the HG and No Grade 1/144 Strike Gundam, the overall look — the sharp edges and proportions — feels a bit more refined. Personally, this is the best-looking kit out of the four EG releases, and it shows off more polished proportions than the HG — so it's definitely worth recommending as a practice kit for painting and customizing. :-)
