General:
This was a really good fun kit to build. I built it and customised it slowly over the past 2 months (I actually did the SD God alongside it for a fortnight or so) so I never felt like I'd rushed anything on it or burnt myself out, and the kit is very very cooperative with being customised, meaning there were a lot less hair-pulling-out moments than my previous Master Grades. I cut about 2mm thickness of plastic out of the upper thighs as these were unbelievably stiff on the ball joints at first and had in fact worn grooves into the balls xP. But that was the only part needed any real extra work.
