Expert Review

The Geara Zulu — essentially the Zaku of the Unicorn series — has arrived. Technically it's an improved and enhanced version of the Geara Doga from Char's Counterattack, sharing a similar overall style and color scheme. That said, as befits a modern kit, it comes with a slimmed-down, dieted-down proportion compared to the bulkier Geara Doga.

Overall build quality has that clean, polished feel you'd expect from a modern HGUC, and it's a solid kit in terms of color separation, molded colors, joint strength, and more. The articulation is a little more average than you might hope for, but it's not bad by any means. You do have to apply quite a lot of stickers to achieve the complex markings and color separation that are characteristic of the Unicorn series. The stickers blend in relatively well so there's no major visual issue, but there are a lot of small circular stickers in the mix, so you'll want to take your time applying them carefully.

This kit comes with a pretty generous selection of weapon accessories, and the highlight is that most of them can be mounted convincingly on the front and rear skirt areas. It can look a little cluttered, but the connections are solid and nothing falls off easily, which is a big plus. Since this is a unit that really gives off that "grunt mobile suit" vibe (or maybe more of a one-man-army feel...), the look of being loaded up with all that gear actually suits it really well.

It may not be the most familiar unit just yet, but the sleek design that's characteristic of the Unicorn series makes for a very satisfying build, and it's a kit that's hard to find any real quality complaints with. Once the anime gets further along, this seems like the kind of item that could really take off in popularity. :-)
