Youtube review: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jK8VR9G8RIM&t=1s
Since I have made a review for this kit on Youtube, I will just summarize some important things and post some nice pictures of it in this post. I understood that AoZ aesthetics and designs may not be for everyone, but IMHO, this kit was one of the best HG kits of 2019. Firstly, it's huge, and it's even taller than HGUC Fenelope, the biggest HG kit of last year. Second, it has interesting features and gimmicks, in particular with the transformation. Since it has two modes of transformation, you basically got three kits in one package: MS mode, top/bottom fighter mode and MA mode. Finally, similar with previously released AoZ kits in HG line, the Hazen'thley II is fully customizable, which means the kit could be easily kitbashed with the others from the same line. You got all these features with price tag less than 5000 Yen (original price), which is a good deal for such gigantic HG kit IMHO. There were of course downside of it, such as the lack of articulation on the torso and legs, complicated transformation, and mediocre marking stickers.
