EW-3 1/100 Tallgeese III

The EW-3 1/100 Tallgeese III is a High Grade (HG) 1/100 scale plastic model kit manufactured by BANDAI HOBBY, based on the iconic mobile suit from the Mobile Suit Gundam Wing: Endless Waltz series. This Gunpla kit allows enthusiasts to build a detailed, articulated replica of the Tallgeese III.

Key features of this model kit include its snap-together assembly, which means no glue is required for construction. The parts are molded in color, reducing the need for painting, although painting can be done to achieve a more refined look. A notable aspect of this kit is its versatility, as it includes parts that allow builders to construct not only the Tallgeese III but also the Tallgeese I or Tallgeese II, though painting would be necessary to accurately represent the colors of the earlier versions. The finished model is articulated, allowing for various dynamic posing options.

The Tallgeese III model accurately reproduces its distinctive head and shoulder designs. Its primary armaments are faithfully recreated:

• The Mega Beam Cannon features a gun barrel deployment gimmick, allowing it to be displayed in both stored and unfolded firing modes without the need for part replacement.
• The Heat Rod is designed with multiple segments, giving it a supple, articulated shape, and includes parts for length adjustment.
• The Shield can be mounted on the left arm and has a tip that can reproduce both the stored and deployed states of the Heat Rod by replacing parts.
• The thruster pods on the back of the mobile suit include inner detailing and a mechanism that allows both doors to open simultaneously.

Included in the box are:

• Multiple plastic runners for assembling the model
• A sheet of foil stickers for detailing
• An instruction manual
• The Mega Beam Cannon
• The Heat Rod
• The Shield
• Two clear pink beam sabers
• A small unpainted 1/20 scale figure of Zechs Merquise
• Additional parts to convert the model into Tallgeese I or Tallgeese II, including extra heads, the Dober Gun, and different shield and shoulder components.

This model kit is ideal for fans of the Mobile Suit Gundam Wing: Endless Waltz series and Gunpla builders who enjoy assembling highly detailed and poseable figures. It is suitable for modelers aged 12 and up.
