My RG Exia has terrible seam lines. Not impressed with this kit at all, The effect area in the upper thighs is rubbish. Been pretty happy with the last 14 kits but I wish they lined up their molds a bit better this time.
I just finished making onefor myfriend as he likes 00 but notmodeling.

Building the HG BearGGuy for her next. Thanks HLJ.
I haven’t made such a video myself, but I’ve seen this a lot. Some modelers even avoid saying the word “decal” to dodge the whole issue.
