Metal Robot Damashii [SIDE MS] OZ-13MS Gundam Epyon Review

Larger like Wing Zero, the color is closer to the play than the old version, and the texture is matte and has a calm atmosphere.

Head Unit

Wider than the old version and improved reproducibility. The shape of the antenna and ears was also sharp and cool. The eyes are painted metallic as usual. The painting of details such as the letter-shaped slit was also accurate.

Body Unit

Like Wing Zero, it has a more three-dimensional effect than the old version, and the coloring has been changed to a color similar to that of anime.

Arms and Legs Unit

The limbs are stretched and the details are increased more than before. The shoulders are good, but the markings on the legs are quite individual, so it seems to be pros and cons. The claw on the arm was fixed in the old version, but this time it is movable.

The shoulder markings are asymmetrical. The fins inside the shoulders are individually movable. The wing base is flexible and movable. The wings can be bent inward and pulled out. Movable can swing both neck and waist, and shoulders can be raised high.

The elbows and knees can also be bent deeply. The hip joint is a pull-out type and can be widely moved back and forth and sideways. The grounding property was not good enough.

Weaponry and Accessories

In this package have a set of pedestals. Shield is the state where the heat rod is not deployed. Unlike the old version, the tip of the rod is not attached. The back side. Installation is fixed in two places with a joint type. The old version was a ball joint, but this time it is made to pass a wire and the appearance is improved. It is possible to move and move each node. Be careful as it may break if you move too violently.

Reproduce the state of light emission in the play with parts that were not in the old version. Beam sword on the right hip. As with the old version, the beam blade of the beam sword comes with two types , a normal size and a large one.

When pulling out the sword, replace it with one with a dedicated cable. Since the cable is a lead wire, it does not interfere with the movement. A wrist assembled with Wing Zero that can reproduce one scene of OP is also included.

How to Deformation to Mobile Armor

First, open the rear armor and unfold the inner parts. Pull out the waist frame and put the legs behind the head. Attach the shield to the crotch part and pull out the shin part.

Spread your nails on the soles of your feet, remove your wrists, and attach the cover. The mobile armor form is completed by adjusting the position of the legs. The nose, which has the image of a dragon's two heads, has become clear parts and looks better than before.

There is no problem with the silhouette, but it was stressful that the stand joint did not click in consideration of painting. From the side. If you don't support the shield and rod with the support, it will hang down, which is also a little stressful.

The shin part can be bent deeper. The back side. With the old version, Wing Zero of the same METAL soul. As with Wing Zero, it was considerably larger than the old version.

Movability and Articulation

From mobile armor form. Regarding this, the impression that the old version, which was a replaceable type, was easier. Deformation. Movable is good everywhere as mentioned above. The beam sword cable was a lead wire so it didn't get in the way. You can also hold the sword in both hands.

Since the large beam blade is light, there was no particular problem in holding it. Heat rod is also a wire format and easy to move and handle. It would have been better if there was more length here. You can also reproduce the grip in the OP using the dedicated wrist.

Summary

This is the review of Metal Robot Damashii [SIDE MS] OZ-13MS Gundam Epyon. It seems that I like and dislike the parts with strong original colors such as the markings on the legs and wings, but the proportions and head modeling are close to the image in the play, the modeling of each part is sharp, the coloring is closer to the play than the old version, Metal RoDa So all the paint was done and the texture was good, and it was finished in a good shape.

The movement is also good overall and the action in the play is almost reproducible, the deformation was a little stressful because the joint was loose and the heat rod needed support, but personally I do not decorate it in MA form so much There was no problem.
