Expert Review

Most TV series Gundams have gotten the HG treatment, and now the long-quiet Turn A Gundam has finally been re-released at HG scale too. And since it's set so far into the future to really call it HGUC, it came out under the title HGCC (Correct Century).

The Turn A stands at around 20m in canon, which is a bit taller than the standard 18m-class Gundams, so this kit comes out noticeably large even for an HG. The main color points on the body are all well handled with good color separation, and aside from the black stripe sections, the canonical colors come through just fine without any seals. Best of all, the proportions are nearly identical to the MG, so that distinctive and elegant silhouette really shines through.

Turn A's various gimmicks are also pretty well recreated — the chest missile hatch open gimmick uses front/back armor swaps, and the shield guide and rifle rear gimmicks are all done with detachable/swap-out parts. The Turn A's signature mid-shin articulation gimmick is also cleanly implemented, which means you can pull off all sorts of those characteristically demure(?) poses nicely. ^^ The Core Fighter does come as a separate part, but the complete lack of color separation makes it feel a bit underwhelming, which is a slight disappointment by comparison.

Overall, this is an extremely clean, top-quality modern HG kit — it's missing the inner frame, but it's a great kit that holds its own against the MG Turn A in terms of looks and style. Sure, it's a bit of a niche unit that doesn't have the widest fanbase, but purely in terms of quality, this is a model HG kit with nothing to complain about. :-)
