Bandai's HG Bracer Phoenix is a decent, well detailed kit, but a couple of poorly places seam lines, visible empty spaces, and the lack of water-slide decals for markings detract from the final product.The model's legs are very well articulated, however I found the articulation of the arms to be very limited. The model looks rather good standing straight up in a hero pose, but I couldn't find a satisfactory action pose.
