@@MechaGaikotsu It's mostly what you'd expect from a kit from the 90s. A notable thing about it is that there are decals that are pre-printed on the parts directly. Which helps since all the stickers for mine have long since fallen off. There are also a lot of seam lines on this one that are very obvious. That might turn off a lot of people. The polycaps for the wings of mine have also loosened enough that the wings kind of droop while in MS if I don't secure them with some tape. Articulation is also very stiff since the torso needs to be a solid piece to facilitate the transformation of the Wave Rider mode. All in all, pretty good kit. If you have a 2.0 or one of the Z-Plus models, then those would pose a lot better. My only real disclaimer is that mine is proper *old* old as I got it way back in 2000 so a lot of it has worn down. If you can find one, just note that the stickers may not work anymore because of the age.

Yep, definitely want a comparison. I actually like the 2.0 quite a lot, it's a bit of a must-have kit if you want to try a little bit of everything that gunpla has to offer. I have no doubt that it's mechanically superior in every way, but I'm not too sure about the appearance. I think the shoulders look narrower and kind of pushed forward so it looks like a kid trying to look tough. The ver ka changes are a matter of taste - I like my very chunky Mk II and Zeta, and Katoki likes his slimmed down suits and hanging breast vents. I do like that the wings aren't a massive brick though. It's hard to say, I might prefer this one in person, I might not.

Don't have the 1.0 to compare but i do have almost every 2.0 even the zeta karaba trio to comapre this to...the design of the ver ka is much more refined and you can definitely tell that its a lot more easy to move and transform into a wave rider. The amount of articulation this has in order for it to move like this and even transform is really an advancement for the zeta line. I would say that its really now the same and solid kit like the RX 78-2 3.0 and ZZ VerKa 😊
