What is your favorite kit that you’ve personally built and why?

I’ll go first: MG Shin Musha Gundam because it was the first MG I had ever done. I was blown away by the difference between 1/144 and 1/100.

MG Zaku II HM Tri-Star 2.0. With the exception of the piping, rock solid classic kit in my favorite sub-team's flavors. Not much more I could ask for.

I haven’t done an mg zaku yet. How does it compare to the hg kits?

MG and HG are totally different beasts. The MG Zaku II 2.0 frame is 15 years old at this point and still holds up. The old HGUC Zaku from 2003, not so much. The revive versions from ~2020 and pretty much anything from The Origin line are great for HGs.
