Step 1 offers some unique challenges. In the areas marked in red, we will need to seam fill. I won't need to seam fill around the head joint because a collar piece will sit over top of it. The red line should also serve as a glue line for this part. The PC pieces will be added, and we can throw in G1 as well. Bandai makes many models snap together, but I want a solid joint so that the putty will not crack over time.
Pilot Cockpit
G4 and D8 are another solution: G4 is gray while D8 is white. D8 will need to be removed from the tree and painted white. I won't be able to do this until I go back to Hobbytown (forgot white color). I bought a camouflage gray, but I want to see it on a piece of sprue before I put it on my model.
Other Details
G4 can be added to the torso without much consequence. G1 will be painted the same color along with C21 and C18. A4 & A5 are yellow I believe, and they will need painting (on the ends, anyways). Once all of that is complete, we move onto detailing the rest of the torso.
