We both have the model.  My friend was talking about selling his.  I pulled mine out and began going over the details.  I encouraged him before he put it up on eBay, to look at the extraordinary detail that GMP packed into this relatively inexpensive model.  He and I fell in love with it all over again!  Wow!  The bottom line, he ain't sellin'!

The detail is superb. And, as with many models, actually having it in hand and looking it over makes you appreciate all over again and certainly keep it in one's collection.

I love the C5R (& later models) & have seen this GMP 1/12 in person (Josh's).  It is an absolutely incredible model.  It blows away any of the 1/18 versions by a long shot.
