REVIEW Robot Spirits ＜SIDE MS＞ MS-07H Gouf Flight Test Type ver. A.N.I.M.E., Bandai

The GOUF Flight Test Type, the starting point of the GOUF Flight Type Series, is now available in a ver. A.N.I.M.E. type just like the atmospheric contact VTOL craft COMMU used by the Zeon forces. Before buying it, I recommend reading the following review first.

REVIEW ROBOT SPIRITS ＜SIDE MS＞ MS-07H GOUF FLIGHT TEST TYPE ver. A.N.I.M.E.

Head Unit

The shape of the head is quite similar, but it changes slightly. The pipe was also thinner than the normal Gouf. The mono eye is movable with metallic paint as usual. The antenna is a separate part and can be installed by yourself.

Body Unit

Since it is the same Gouf, the ordinary Gouf is similar to a normal Gouf, but the design is slightly different and it is almost a new model. The fuselage has more details than Gouf, and markings have been added to improve the sense of precision. The pipe around here was also thin.

Arms and legs Unit

Shoulder armor is usually similar to Gouf, but with shorter spines. Armor has been added to the arms, and the legs have changed significantly from the knees down. back. The left and right wings of the backpack can be moved back and forth, and the vernier can also be moved with a ball joint. The legs became so thick that the knees could only bend 90 degrees due to interference. The ankles are movable and can touch the ground without any gaps even if the legs are wide open. Kneeling is also possible.

Weaponry

Weapon is Giant Buzz only. You can use the effect from other sources as usual. A total of 6 vernier effects are included, 4 for the crankshaft and 2 for the straight shaft. COMMU, this is also included on the package of the old kit. The modeling is quite elaborate and the details such as the mold are also precise.

There is a stand hole underneath so it's easy to float. A replacement landing gear is also included. The canopy was made of clear parts and was shaped exactly like the pilot. Comparation with normal Gouf, the shape above the knee is quite similar, but each part is slightly different and it was almost a new model. Movable is almost the same as normal Gouf for the upper body.

This time, the melee weapon was a rare specification of zero. COMMU is a rare impression that such a system option is attached. Since there is a stand hole, it was easy to display two machines side by side. Luxurious specification with 6 vernier effects.

Robot Spirit Gouf flight test type ver. ANIME's MSV series-like details were carefully crafted, and there was almost no diversion, and most of the new moldings, colors, markings, etc. were finished in a good-looking manner as the image of the old kit illustration. In terms of design, only the knees were lower than the normal Gouf, but the others were almost the same and good, and the options were few weapons, but it was interesting because it had strange contents such as a COMMU.
