Depends on the kit scale (1/144 or 1/100) and level (HG, MG, PG).
For 1/100 scale:
1-'HG' for High Grade, the real basic level, minimal articulation, and all accents are stickers. Stands about 12+" tall.
2-'MG' for Master Grade, which I prefer to build, has all the extra articulation, molded separate colored parts instead of stickers, and more details in the molds. ($45-$80) 2-5 hours if you weather and detail them. Stands about 12-18" tall
3-'PG' for Perfect Grade.  These are 1/60 scale and are very detailed with exo/endo skeletons ($200.00 +) and usually light up, etc. > weeks to months to build. I have 1 of these and I have been dragging my heals about building it. Stands 24-36" tall

Some of mine are on the top shelf in this picture (if you can see them).

Nice. It would look cool to build one, weather it up and place it in a diorama setting.

Lots of choices.

Here is my 2AM New Year's Day insomnia modeling project. Gotta love Bandi engineering... not one drop of glue!

Need to do some clean up, apply the dry transfers and do a wash and some weathering.

Looks great Bill. How long does it take to build one of these kits?

I love the dramatic lighting -- it suits the robot perfectly!
