Celebrating the 40th anniversary of Gunpla, Bandai brings us a new lineup–the Gunpla Evolution Project! The first entry in this new series is the Zeta Gundam! It features increased flexiblity for superior posability, and accurate proportions. Parts can be switched to transform it into the Wave Rider, too. In addition, it’s armed with the Hyper Mega Launcher, a beam saber, and more.

The Revive HG Zeta is a pretty decent Kit, well built besides some polycaps in the legs that stuggle under the backpack a bit, I recommed tightening them up with PVA or something.
Articulation is decent the knees struggle abit but utilising the transforming gimmick you can get a good bend. The arms are very good and can even be pulled out from the body by about a centimetre for posing.
The Zeta itself is colour accurate minus some spots like the vents on the shoulders and above the leg verniers.
Decent accessories, well put together but not entirely colour accurate, the sheild has a colour correcting sticker for one of it's parts and is annoying to put on smoothly. The grenade arms are very nice, fliping them open is super cool and you get extra mags for them. The beam sabre hilts sadly don't attach to the kit, the Sideskirts they hide in for the animation are solid pieces, I'm sure opening hatches could be done (The gundam pharact has a similar feature and the HG pulls it off) but this kit is a decade old at this point.
The backpack/wave rider is a bit disappointing, requiring colour correcting stickers that line the wing's edges, it can be a bit annoying to put them all on and line them up as best you can. If you're a confident or even amateur painter I'd recommend repainting those edges, they're not hard to do and the effect would be well worth it, due to the transformation though I'd recommend a couple layers of top coat, the pieces may scrap against each other and wear off the paint.
The transformation itself is a partsformer and easy to put together, it does look great but is a bit unstable, the beam rifle's connection is a but flimsy out of the box and the wings only have one point of connection, it's not a swooshable model but looks good when set up and posed on an action base.
Overall it's a good kit, especially one that is a decade old at this point. There is a Pbandai release has updated legs with no polycaps but it seems to be rare and I'd venture not worth it if you just want a HG Zeta, the MG Ver ka can suit your hyper detail needs and the RG is a very pretty hand grenade.
