I finished both Gundam Wing and Endless Waltz (watched the movie version)

Wing is a bit of a mess but it’s enjoyable. After a very slow start, I think it finds its footing somewhere around the middle episodes, I was hooked by episode 25 at least. I like all the complicated political stuff and some moments will definitely stick with me for a while. The ending was a tiny bit underwhelming, it just sort of felt like CCA but on a smaller budget. So I didn’t really feel anything about it being over. Where this series shines though is the character writing. I think every character is at least somewhat likeable. Except for Wufei. What was he doing most of the time, man? Especially in Endless Waltz.

Endless waltz fixes a lot of my problems with it though. I don’t feel so underwhelmed anymore. This was awesome. It’s the perfect epilogue to the series and I’m glad most of the characters seem to have a happy ending. Heero’s ending is a little open ended, since he spent his whole youth as a child soldier pretty much. But I hope him and Relena got together at least. Otherwise I’d be pretty upset.

I’d say on its own, Wing is better than F91 and slightly behind 0083, but if you include Endless Waltz, it’s better than 0083 and slightly behind G Gundam.

3/5 for Wing, 4/5 for Endless Waltz, 4/5 overall. That’s my first impression anyway, I do wanna rewatch this because it took me nearly 4 months to get through it. Despite all that though, I do actually really like this show, it’s just very very flawed.

Favourite characters: Relena, Quatre, Duo, Lady Une, and Heero

Lego Gundam Wing Zero Endless Waltz Custom scaled for playing Mobile Frame Zero: Rapid Attack. Full disclosure, the sub-wing design was sent to me by a friend from a Saint Seiya Brickhead knockoff from Ali Express, and I haven't be able to find the original designer. The flight mode transformation is almost all built in articulation, but the shield required an addition 1x1 plate and 1x1 bracket to connect.

RG 1/144 Colonies Liberation Organization Mobile Suit XXXG-OOWO "Wing Gundam Zero" (Endless Waltz Ver.)

RG Wing Zero EW (Endless Waltz Ver.) is finally complete!!! This was a really fun kit to put together. Unlike the last two RGs I built, the Zaku II and Exia, this one was relatively quick to put together, without very many small parts or complex panel details. This was the first kit where I was able to identify a lot of the complaints about early RG kits. Despite reinforcement with PVA glue, the joints on the pre-built frame were still a little floppy.

A lot of really cool details are achieved with minimal parts usage. Although I didn't get photos, the shoulders pop up to reveal large vulcan cannons, and the chest pops forward a little to imply a cockpit opening.

The wings are easily the most iconic part of this kit, and while the feathers are quite tricky to put in place, they have a really nice effect and look great when posing. My only complaint is that the backpack is pretty loosely attached, and the weight of the wings will either make the model tip backwards or cause the wings to fall off. I got around this by either using the lower wings to prop up the kit like a bipod, or tilting the wings forward to re-distribute as much weight as possible.

Despite this limitation I was still able to get some really cool photos.

I replaced the beam saber effects from this kit with the UV reactive ones from my Witch From Mercury kits to get a cool glowing effect.

This kit also comes with the twin Wing Zero Buster rifle, which can actually split apart into its dual wield mode or clip together into a big double cannon. The barrels are compatible with beam effect parts as well!

Overall, while this kit is starting to show its age, it was a pretty fun build and able to achieve a lot of the poses from the anime. Definitely recommend to any Wing or Endless Waltz fans!!
