GUNDAM一直係我青少年時期最鍾意嘅機械人動畫，特別係RX系列嘅機體，例如《0080：口袋裡的戰爭》、《08th MS Team》同《0083：星塵的回憶》，絕對係我心目中嘅首選！

RX系列嘅設計好實際，好似現實世界嘅軍事武器咁，充滿真實感同軍事風味。相比之下，之後新一代嘅如WING、X、A、SEED、Unicorn，或者一堆Newtype相關嘅誇張設定……實在太離地、太科幻，我真係接受唔到啊😓。對唔住，我只係鍾意返璞歸真、接地氣嘅GUNDAM風格。

講返呢隻Hi-ν Gundam RX-93-ν2，我喺1992年入手咗呢個1/220比例版本。當時主流嘅GUNDAM模型主要係1/144同1/220兩個比例，對我嚟講比例唔重要，最緊要係製作質素！因為1/144通常係Bandai出嘅平價模型，當時嘅組裝質素真係好差，容易變形、接合鬆散，唔夠精緻。Hi-ν Gundam當時係最新推出嘅GUNDAM，繼承咗RX-93 ν Gundam嘅經典形象，只不過佢出現喺小說《Char's Counterattack: Beltorchika's Children》入面，而唔係電影版。我到而家都未有完整讀過呢套小說🤣，純粹因為外型太正，先入手嚟砌。

由於1/220比例好細，零件細小，處理速度自然快咗好多，打磨表面積都細，唔使花太多時間。但正正因為細，砌嘅時候要加倍小心，避免唔小心整斷咗任何零件。完成品大約10cm高，擺喺枱頭做擺設 gadget 超級啱，唔佔位又夠型！

雖然故事入面嘅Newtype人類元素真係唔太啱我口味（我始終偏好現實軍事風），但Hi-ν GUNDAM嘅外型設計我依然好鍾意— 藍白配色、Fin Funnel背包、整體流線感同霸氣兼備，係UC系列入面其中一個最有型嘅機體！

1/220 Hi-v GUNDAM RX-93-v2
From Mobile Suit GUNDAM - Char's Counterattack novel series.

A 1/220 scale of GUNDAM is roughly 10cm tall only. Pretty handy.

The way of display is to pretend the style of display cabinet in those G.Kit stores in 90's.

From the mechanical perspective.
I just don't know how the manoeuvrability work out on this GUNDAM.
There're only 2 apogee motors on the back. Does it have enough propulsion power?
(Concerning because GUNDAM usually is moving very fast - 好Q快啊! 好Q快啊! 就係咁樣。)
