+This is a weird one. Let's get it out of the way - the suit is //cute//, and is clearly why it has been turned in to so many variations (e.g. the [[https://gundam.fandom.com/wiki/GPB-04B_Beargguy|Bearguy]] and [[https://gundam.fandom.com/wiki/GPB-04NYA_Nyagguy|Nyagguy]] for starters).... and that's really not what you want from a //bad-guy// weapon. It doesn't help that the kit comes molded in brown colours, to make the Bear-like imagery even worse!
+That all said, it's a really nice kit. Despite looking like it's only made from half a dozen moving parts it couldn't be further from the truth. Although there isn't a huge range of movement due to the length of the arms and legs, what you can do is really impressive; the ankle/knee joints extend further than you expect, the arms contract and expand, it has a nice gimmick where the clawed hand can retract (though the mechanism tends to be a bit stiff). Overall it's a //surprisingly// nice kit.
+I painted mine in shark-like colours; a bluey-grey and an off-white light grey. No decals applied yet, so this kit should be counted as still in-progress.
