HG MS-06R-1A Zaku II Black Tristars English Manual & Color Guide

Another brilliant release by Bandai, this time the 1/144 High Grade Zaku II of the Black Tristars. The Black Tristars are a trio of Zeon pilots who made their presence known in the first Mobile Suit Gundam anime series piloting Dom's. Their back story was that they made their mark effectively piloting Zaku II's. Bandai already released a Master Grade version of this a couple of years back.

The HG MS-06R-1A Zaku II Black Tristars is selling for $20.79 at Amazon, 1280 yen at HobbyLink Japan, 1360 yen at Hobby Search.



Construction Manual & Color Guide was translated to English from the Japanese manual posted at Dalong's Gunpla & Model Kit Review site.
