FIRST TIME? 
Description
This is a posable, Real-Grade injection-plastic kit of an item from the Gundam universe.
The second release in Bandai's new "Real Grade" series is Char's Zaku II! Just like the first kit in the Real Grade line, the RX-78-2 (linked below), the Zaku II packs an amazing level of detail (think MG or PG) into an HG-size kit, complete with dynamic action and moving features. The perfect counterpart to the RG Gundam, the Zaku II comes with the same kind of posable inner frame, piping, and enough markings to keep you busy for some time. Bandai continues to raise the bar. Now, which Gundam will be RG#3?

Assembly Guide
Skill Level 2:
Easy to Complete
Skill Level 2 kits require basic plastic model assembly techniques, such as cutting parts from the runners, and cutting or sanding away the remains of the gates (the place where the part was connected to the runner). Some kits in this level also provide stickers for some markings. Most level 2 kits do not require cement or paint, but be sure to read any additional information provided to be sure. To nicely complete a level 2 kit, you will want to have a pair of plastic nippers for cutting parts from the runners, and a fine file, sandpaper or hobby knife for cleaning the gates. In some cases, a pair of tweezers makes applying stickers easier. Most adults with no prior modeling experience would have no trouble completing a kit of skill level 2. Parents would probably want to assist younger children with a kit of this level if they have never built one before.
No Cement Required
This item does not require the use of cement to complete. Some modelers prefer to use cement on snap-together kits in order to fix them into a particular pose, or make a joint more secure. However, this is not required to complete these kits.
No Painting Required
This item does not require painting.
Either the item is completely pre-painted, such as an action figure or other completed figure, or it is molded in the colors of the finished item so that it appears natural after you have assembled it. Note that kits which are molded in their final colors will always look better when painted, even if this is not required. At the very least, a light coat of flat clear spray will make a science-fiction kit look much less toy-like after assembly. The same goes for some action figures as well.
