Robot Damashii [SIDE MS] XVX-016 Gundam Aerial ver. ANIME Review

It's RoDa Gundam Aerial ver. ANIME, but of course it was made before the anime aired, so the proportions etc. are a model that reflects the setting picture. 


Head Unit

Faithfully reproduces the charming design with big eyes. Complex details were also precisely reproduced. Metallic paint as usual. The details are carefully painted, and the forehead is finished with clear parts and other textures. 


Body Unit

The proportions are faithful to the setting picture. Compared to other Gundams, the design is quite dense, and the chest part is also partially clear. I tried applying a black light to the black clear part, but there was nothing in particular. 


Arms and Legs Unit

A unique balance with thin arms and thick legs. In particular, the legs are curved and have a feminine form. Some of the thighs are also clear parts. The backpack has a simple design with clear parts on the top. The saber base can move back and forth. 

The movable waist is a pull-out type, and both the neck and waist can swing greatly. The shoulder is also a drawer type and it goes up high, but the drawer to the front is a little. Elbows and knees can be deeply bent and elbows can be rolled. The hip joint is also a pull-out type, and the movement is wide in the front and back, and the grounding is very high. 


Weaponry and Accessories

A set of Gund-Bit display parts, Rifle and shield is included. Beam rifle have small design with no moving parts. It can be mounted on a backpack by using a joint. Since it is a collection of Gund-Bits, it is quite large. The bit is attached to the special parts for the shield, so it looks natural. back side. Hold can be equipped with only one of two points, grip and joint.

Parts for exclusive use of the shield with the bit removed. At this point, it was easy to replace because the three types of bits were combined. It is also possible to remove a part of the bit and attach it to the rifle to make it a long barrel. 

In addition, effects for rifles that have not yet been used in the anime are also included. Then bit on form. Attach the bit to your shoulder or forearm. The forearm bit is asymmetrical. It is worn on the side of the waist and on the back of the waist. Bits other than the shoulder are connected to ball joints, so you can fine-tune the direction and angle. 

The bit on the back of the waist was also able to expand the gray parts. A clear display part is also included to display the Gund-Bit in the injection state. Display parts are attached to the holes in the backpack. The protrusion on the bottom is a pin for inserting into the soul stage, and there is no stand hole.

Each bit is attached to the mount parts. Both ends of the strut are ball joints and can be angled finely. In addition, there was a groove in the Gund-Bit mount parts and it was possible to face forward. 

It is also possible to attach it to the hole of the soul stage pedestal and display it. With the recent TV series leading role Gundam. Also with RX-78 and GP01 of the same ver. ANIME. The size was slightly larger in Gundam.


Movability and Articulation

As mentioned above, the mobility is good everywhere, and the stiffness of the joints is no problem. Since the shield fixes the bit with a special part, there was no stress of Polori. Impressive back shot in OP etc. In addition, it was a little troublesome that the stand joint attached to the buttocks could not be used when the bit was turned on, and the only way was to use the hole in the back. 

Gather your strength and purge Gund-Bit. This scene in episode 1 can be reproduced almost as it is. The Gund-Bit display parts have a high holding power and can be displayed freely. You can also reproduce the movement when trying to make a shield.

However, it was a difficult point that the backpack itself sometimes came off because it was so heavy and the fitting of the support was quite hard. Since the shoulders are raised high, it is possible to go to the upper level of Gekichu-dori. The waist can also be rotated. A beam blade for rifles not used in the play is also included. It's a little heavy, but had no problem holding it. 


Summary

Unlike the ver. ANIME series so far, the image in the anime play has not yet been reflected, so the modeling is based on the setting image, but it feels like it fits the image of the anime so far, and the details are complicated. It was reproduced precisely, and the painting was polite and well done. The movement is also ver. ANIME-like, with a lot of pull-out joints, and the design was originally designed to have little interference, so it was overall good.\
