1/35 SAFS Prototype (Zionel Western Bis)

Here's another rare kit from WF, released by Zionel Western Bis. I believe its a conversion kit, as it does not contain all the parts for a full suit, and the instructions (in Japanese) clearly indicated that there are parts necessary to be used from another kit.
The overall casting is good, and is in white. I particularly like the helmet's shape, very nice!
2 different heads are provided (see the pictures below), and the pilot's body is also provided,
in fact the suit has details inside allowing the modeler to build it as a split suit. The only multimedia here is the radio wire.
No springs found in this kit.
