>>8844125this is an old pic of my PG MkII, completely unpainted. I think it looks great, apart from the stickers.
also, all of the old PGs hold up pretty damn well, there are screws and wiring involved but it's all pretty simple and works well.
they do take forever to build though. for example, one leg of the MkII has more parts than most entire HG kits due to the inner frame.
