Gundam Universe GN-001 Gundam Exia Review

Head Unit

The shape was lightly deformed, the outline was thick, and the eyes were large. The cheeks are not painted gray or yellow, so it gives the impression of being a little laid back. It's a pity that Freedom was painted gray.

Body Unit

It has a solid body shape that seems to be a universe, but Exia is particularly noticeable and the legs are fluffy. The color of this area is reproduced exactly, but the lens is painted instead of clear parts. The antenna on the collar was fixed.

Arms and Legs Unit

The feature is that the legs are very thick. There are many omissions such as gray lines, and this area also looks a little unsatisfactory. The GN cone is also all white. All the handles of the beam saber can be removed, but it doesn't make much sense because there is no saber blade.

Option and Accessories

Equipped with GN sword and GN blade. Like Gundam Freedom, there was no shield. GN sword armament is a little larger this time as well. The GN Sword shield part is not painted gray and the blade is a single color, so it looks a little plain.

A normal Exia three-dimensional object can be fixed in the hole behind the arm, but this time it was held only by the handle. Sword can be deployed. The moving part is only the sword and the others are fixed.

GN Long Blade white and blue patterns are unpainted, so they don't look good either. The same applies to GN Short Blade. Both can be mounted on the side of the waist. The gray latch is removable. Even without MB's original arrangement, the lack of color and the thickness of the legs are remarkable.

Movability and Articulation

Since the joints are common to the series, the movement is almost the same as the others. However, since the waist armor is short, the movement around the hip joint was a little better than the others. There is a moderate gap around the waist, so I could turn it about 30 degrees, and the fighting pose was easier than others.

However, the stress when moving the GN blade on the side of the waist and the beam saber on the back is easy to porori is the top class ever. The color of the blade of GN Sword is sober, but it is big, so it is powerful. It is a little unstable because it is held only by the handle. Since the ankle area is clean, the ground contact is relatively excellent.

Summary

This is the review of Gundam Universe Gundam Exia. The size is large for the cheap price, and it has a decent appearance and is made like a Gundam universe. However, I think it depends on your taste, but the legs are too thick and it feels a little strange, the face is not good looking because there are many omissions of painting, and when you move it, you are worried about sabers and braids, etc. There were more dissatisfaction points than the Gundam Universe.
