It is, in fact, literally longer than my forearm. And that's still not even the actual full size!
GAHhh! Holy cow!
Looks sharp! How was the build process for it?
Similar to most of the other MG EW kits, really. Even though the Epyon has a lot more moving parts to support the mobile armor transformation, none of it involves any fiddly bits, so all it really amounts to is an extra step to lock the moving pieces in place. If the Wing Zero ver Ka. is comparable to a MG 3.0, then this would be a 2.0 or maybe 2.5. There's zero undergating though, so expect to deal with a lot of nub marks.
Man, that's a lot of decals!
I always find it an interesting choice when the weapon + effect is too heavy for the joints.
The kit actually comes with most of an Action Base 4 (just with 1 hex plate instead of 3) specifically for supporting the blade, but I wanted to minimize the horizontal space taken up. Fortunately, the wires act as a counterbalance when the blade is upright, so the only thing to worry about is the arm slipping off the shoulder joint entirely from the weight, but thankfully I seem to have angled the upper arm enough for that to not be an issue so far.
