Kit Features & Gimmicks
Zaku II can be built/reconfigured into either Type C-6 or R6 with two different shoulder parts.
The backpack can also be built in two different styles.
Articulation
Mono-eye can be moved left or right via a switch underneath.
The head can swivel on a ball-joint, or slightly tilt back and forth on a c-clip pivot joint.
The torso can tilt back and forth (though slightly) via an L-shaped joint frame.
Shoulder joints and 2/3 of the torso blocks can swing forward for extra frontwards articulation.
The shoulders can...
Swivel on a ball-and-socket joint.
Raise horizontally.
The shoulder shield and armors are jointed to avoid interference with the arm's articulation.
Arms and Legs feature double-jointed elbow/knee parts.
The waist can rotate via a ball-and-socket joint.
Front and side skirt armors are poseable (though slightly) to avoid interference with the leg articulation.
The hip joint axis can swing forwards (for extra articulation) and backwards.
The upper thigh joints can...
Raise horizontally.
Rotate on each thigh.
The ankle joints can tilt frontwards, or sideways in a limited manner.
Front foot pieces can tilt.
Weapons/Other Gimmicks
The hands are swappable.
Each of the weapons must be wielded by their own respective hands.
Heat Hawk (storing) can mount on both sides of the waist armor.
Bazooka's foregrip can flip up and down.
Bazooka can be mounted onto the backpack via an adapter.
Additional Bazooka ammo packs can be mounted onto the shield.
Both Belt-fed and Zaku Machine Guns' foregrip can swing forwards and backwards.
Belt-fed Machine Gun's ammo pack can attach onto the backpack.
Zaku II can be mounted with the Action Base via an adapter.
Tips & Tricks
For better results, some/most of the details are needed to be applied & panel-lined with Gundam Markers and/or Mr. Color paints.
Topcoat (Mr. Hobby recommended) can be used to protect applied stickers and marking decals.
The Commander Type head unit surplus piece can be optionally installed onto the head.
Bazooka accessories from System Weapon 009 or from HGGTO Black Tri-Stars Zaku I can be used for this kit.
Notes & Trivia
The instruction manual reveals an additional pilot named "Pacheco", which didn't appear in the OVAs.
Unlike the HG Zaku II Type C/Type C-5 kit, this Gunpla comes with a surplus chest Vulcan gun pieces.Â
