I purchased this from the Gundam Base about two years ago and assembled it after leaving it unbuilt for six months. It was then displayed indoors for about six months. When I built it, the neck of Heero in the cockpit was in a precarious state (though not broken). The neck joint feels a little loose, even from when it was first built.
