Our verdict

Governor Para-Pawn Sentinel Ver.1.5 is a 74 mm, 1/24 scale armored figure kit, the pilot type for Kotobukiya's Hexa Gear mechs. Kotobukiya says this update came from user requests: the head, upper arm, thigh, abdomen and crotch armor moved from PVC to PS plastic, which takes paint more readily, using a new mold. The hands now move forward and back, the torso ball joint was reworked so it does not pop out, and the hip boxes move. Kotobukiya US listed it at $20.99 in stock and rates it 15 and up.

We found no owner reviews on the Kotobukiya US page. Kotobukiya notes the photos show a painted sample, so the bare kit will look plainer.

It suits a Hexa Gear owner who needs a pilot, or a painter who wants a small figure to practice on. Skip it if you want a large display piece; it is under three inches tall.
