[REVIEW] HGBF Petit'gguy Surfgreen with Guitar


      It's review time once again! Recently I kinda had the urge to build something. Since I'm done with all of the backlogs that I had. I was checking out some stuff at dalong's site and I encountered this one. And luckily it was available at the mall.



So yeah, I bought one. The price was kinda high but whatever, I'm fine with it. I'm actually not that much of a fan of these Petit'gguys, I just bought this one because of the guitar, it's just really cute looking and stuff. So without further ado, let's see what's inside.


First, we have runner L. It has the parts for the head, arms and ears. I really like the green color.


And then we have runner M. It has the guitar, the ribbon for the Petit'gguy's back, and a nice looking brown mini stand.


Now we have runner K. It has the paws, feet, the insides of it's ears, and it's snout and nose. In a cream-like paint job.


And lastly, we have six clear polycaps and the sticker sheet. It's really nice that Bandai provided extra stickers for the nose and eyes. I guess they know that some of us would lose some the stickers into the alternate reality, or Earth Two, or in the Universal Century while we're attaching it, or maybe accidentally lose it when it falls to the ground or some sort (well, if you're unlucky that is). So great job there Bandai!

Moving on...

After minutes of building, let's check it out part by part.


Let's start off with the head. It was an easy build, some minor nub mark removal and it's done. It was kinda hard attaching the sticker on the nose. Just stay away from the electric fan while attaching it.


The second part now is the body. Pretty easy one.


Third we have the arms.

Ooooh, nub mark spotted. 
And legs.


Now for it's accessory (or ries). We have here the guitar, and this adapter piece thing for you to attach some parts from other Build Fighters accessories.


And lastly, we have this cute little stand. If you have other Petit'gguys, you can attach the other stands together.

Now let's put them all together and...

"Are you ready to rock?"
Here it is with all of it's parts attached. It can somehow stand on it's own but you really need to use the stand.



nub marks!!!
nub marks again!!!  😂
"Yes my sweet Yes! my sweetest, I wanna get back where you were~"
Here it is with the stand.


And some other poses.



Now on the back of the manual (sorry I wasn't able to take a photo of that one.) You can attach some weapons and accessories from other Gunplas most of them are from the Portent Flyer, Amazing Red Warrior, and the weapons from the Crossbone Maoh. Luckily, I have the first two.


On the manual, it says you can attach part parts from the Portent flyer as wings and a sort of sword. And you can also get the Amazing Red Warrior's shield as a uhm, shield for this Pettit'gguy.


Double sword FTW!


"Just wild beat, communication~"
"Spider-man, Spider-man, your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man"
CONs
  • Too girly (it depends in your reference)
  • too pricey (I think)
  • limited accessories (but for me the guitar is a win)
PROs

  • Easy build
  • GUITAR!!!
  • Free stand
  • The nub marks are not so visible.
  • The customization options for the Petit'gguy is very excellent. You can attach wings, boosters, and other various weapons. It's really great kit for customization.
There you have it the HGBF Pettit'gguy Surfgreen and Guitar (as it said on the box). Overall, it's a quick and easy build. A good startup build for your young lad who wants to start building Gunplas (or might as well just build an SD Gundam if this one is too girly for him.), just help them with the removal of nub marks because it's hard to remove compare to child-friendly SDs. As I said in my verdict, the amount of accessories are quite of a bad thing. I hope next time Bandai will release more of these in more colors, accessories (like keyboards, bass guitar, microphone to form a band), and lots of other add-ons and let's hope it's not in a P-Bandai release.

What are your thoughts on this Petit'gguy? Will you buy it? Share them in the comments below and let me here from you. See you in my next post!
