The following is a review of Mobile Suit Ensemble 21, a action figure released by Bandai based on the original model of the Gundam series.

Mobile Suit Ensemble 21 Review

RX-78GP01 Gundam "Zephyranthes"

The first of the 0083 series to be developed from this time. The letter on the mask is slightly off, but the modeling is stable as usual.

Since the joints are common to the series, the movement is the same as usual. Since the shoulder joint is a renewal version from the previous time, it is possible to move around the shoulder especially flexibly. GP02 is limited, 03 Staymen is 22 bullets, Dendrobium is limited, but it is still a mystery what will happen to Full Burnern.

Mass production type ν Gundam

Since the design is completely different, there is no diversion from ν and it is a new modeling. Faithfully reproduce the unique shoulder details and coloring.

There is no particular interference here either, so the movement remains the same. Replaced with fin funnel. The mass-produced ν has a strong impression of the hidden unit of Super Robot.

Hazel Owsla

One type lineup from ADVANCE OF Z, which seems to have increased the number of three-dimensional objects recently. The volume was great and the capsules were buns. The sub-arm in front of the waist can be deployed, and it is possible to hold a weapon. The head unit can be attached and detached, and when removed, the internal eyes are reproduced exactly.

The gimmick is particularly elaborate, such as the ability to deploy the sub-arm. Beam saber is borrowed from other bullets. Replaced with full armor form. This is an overwhelming sense of volume on par with the limited edition.

Ball Unit

Uniquely made without using common joints unlike others. The details are pretty solid and the colors are as you imagined. There was no pedestal to float. The arm can now move in multiple places. The cannon can also move up and down. The total height is less than half that of MS, and the scale feels as you imagined.

In terms of the original design, this one has a less deformed atmosphere.

MS weapon set

This is composed of Primrose Type 3 weapons and each part. Although it is a weapon set, Primrose can be assembled firmly. It is displayed floating on a pedestal common to the series. Primrose Type 1 weapons can also be reproduced by rearranging the parts. Please note that you will need to rent a Hazel booster pod here.

Other options

If you combine Hazel with some parts of Primrose Type 3 weapons, you can reproduce the Hazel Owsla full armor form. Originally it was voluminous and a lot of parts are attached, so it is quite powerful.

The weapon is too long, so the elbows are hard to bend. The binder on the right side can be expanded as well as the base moves. Fin funnel parts for mass-produced ν Gundam are also included. With normal ν Gundam. Fin funnel parts were common.

Summary

This is the review of MOBILE SUIT ENSEMBLE 21. Anomalous assortment of all 6 types continued for a while, but this time it will be released with a lineup of all 5 types for the first time in a while.

Various modeling paintings are stable, and by combining it with GP01, which is the first of 0083 that will be developed from this time, mass production type ν with a minor frame feeling, and a weapon set, the volume feeling and gimmick will be amazing. Satisfaction was high with a well-balanced lineup such as hazele, two resold gyms and balls that I wanted to line up.
