MG Tallgeese I EW
The MG Tallgeese I EW turns Zechs Merquise's elegant machine into a tall, clean kit with an almost ceremonial presence. Fully assembled it stands around 18 cm and includes the massive Dober Gun, shield, two Beam Sabers, and articulated rear thrusters that can be opened to simulate acceleration. The weapon connects to the shoulder via a movable mount, allowing the direction to be varied without forcing the arm to bear all the weight. This EW version comes from the redesign by Hajime Katoki associated with Endless Waltz and its manga, so it does not have a debut episode of its own; the original Tallgeese enters full combat in the Gundam Wing TV series. As a curiosity, within the lore it was the prototype from which the Leos were derived, but its extreme acceleration was so dangerous that few pilots could control it. The dominant white accepts grey panel lining and small metallic details, while the included markings add just the right military touch. It is a balanced MG: it does not need a complicated transformation to be eye-catching and looks great next to Wing Gundam or Epyon.
