    A different proportion from G1 toys, yet it is more toon-like.

    Well, you are the first person ever to convince me Zeta Gndam is good for anything... Nice job. Proportions are slightly off, though that's probably Zeta's fault (everything is Zeta's fault :lol ).

    Watchoo talkin' bout, foo? :crazy: 

    Zeta is one of the classic beauties of Gundam, and pretty much the first (and embarrassingly one of the last) times that they ever brought something fundamentally new to the tired ol' Gundam design. One of my faves (though I prefer the Zeta Plus Test Type)

    This is a great build... Normally I find Gundam-to-TF bashes look awkward, but Victory Saber has always had a pretty strong Gundam influence, and so this interpretation works very well. Good stuff! :D

    It looks amazing. Star Saber has never been given a proper official homage.

    The robot master was far too small, the original suffered from all of the typical G1 woes, and the homage in Energon was a bigger unarticulated brick than the original Star Saber.

    I can't wait until it arrives (I won the auction). It will be great to have a quality Star Saber to display with Botcon Deathsaurus. This is the first major custom I've purchased/won.
