REVIEW Mobility Joint Gundam Vol. 3, Bandai

This is review of Bandai action figure Gunpla Mobility Joint Gundam Vol. 3 from Shokugan Mobility Joint Series.

What is Mobility Joint Gundam?

Shokugan series "MOBILITY JOINT" is an assembly plastic kit series that allows you to enjoy strengthening and expanding with a general-purpose joint mechanism called a mobility joint and a large number of armed groups with EX parts.

The well-balanced main body is cute, but the details are uncompromising, and the parts composition puts a lot of effort into putting plastic kits to shame. It is a series that satisfies the playfulness by recreating various situations by replacing EX parts and multiple armed groups.

Bandai Action Figure Gunpla Mobility Joint Gundam Vol. 3 Review

"Mobile Suit Gundam UC" is a big feature in the third installment of the series. The main character Unicorn Gundam (Destroy Mode), rival Sinanju, and ReZEL as a mass-produced machine. The Unicorn Gundam can be combined with two types of EX parts to form the Full Armor Unicorn Gundam, the ReZEL can be expanded from a general machine to a C-type, and the ReZEL C-type (general Revil deployment machine) can be expanded to be equipped with a Defenser b unit. The aircraft can also be enjoyed in various forms with numerous armaments.

01: Unicorn Gundam (Destroy Mode)

Comes with beam magnum and shield. The eyes are large and the body is cute, but the density of the details is overwhelming. The exposed part of the psycho frame is reproduced with stickers, and the head and lower arms are divided into elaborate parts.

The angle of the head from the side is wonderful. The configuration minimizes the joints, and the side slit psychoframe is color-coded at the part stage. Although the foregrip does not deploy, the shoulders are freely movable, making it easy to shoot with both hands.

02: Sinanju

A smart and heroic body reminiscent of Gundam and a somewhat eerie impression reminiscent of the pilot's full frontal are well balanced. Engraves with sleeves that enter various places are expressed with stickers and paint. Beam rifle and shield are included.

Like the pilot, it has an eerie and cool head that looks like it's wearing a mask. The engraving of the foil seal has a good texture and shines brightly. If you remove the shield, you can get the style you showed during the battle with the Nahel Argama. The flight pose is also perfect.

03: ReZEL

Deployed in the Nahel Argama, it is an aircraft that follows the lineage of the Z Gundam boarded by Lidi Marcenas and others. The sleek body, overhanging hips, and wide, sharp ankles make for a wonderful figure. It is the perfection of this bullet. Sensors such as the head main camera are the red of the general machine.

04: ReZEL (General Revil deployment machine)

This is a ReZEL with a different back shape called C type, and the main body is also ivory and orange General Revil deployment machine. The main body is the same as a general machine, and this is also a good proportion. "ReZEL" is an abbreviation for Refine Zeta Gundam Escort Leader, a katakana that you want to read out loud. These sensors are yellow. It is a gentle coloring like a mass-produced machine than a general machine.

05: EX parts for Sinanju & Unicorn Gundam

A set of 2 long and short bazookas for Sinanju, a beam ax and its connecting parts, and 3 shield gatlings for Unicorn Gundam.

06: EX parts for Unicorn Gundam

The contents here are hyper bazooka x 2, hand grenade x 4, anti-ship missile launcher x 2, propellant tank x 2, and joint parts for back mounting. Combining with 05 EX parts, it is possible to make Unicorn Gundam full armor.

07: EX parts for ReZEL

It comes with a beam rifle, shield, beam saber, mega beam launcher for general machines, as well as a mask, shoulder parts, and a back binder to make it a commander machine.

08: EX parts for ReZEL (General Revil deployment machine)

A set that allows you to replace the General Revil deployment machine with a Defenser b unit equipped type, and includes a shield, Mega Beam Launcher x 2, and Defensor b unit replacement parts.

Complete Review

First of all, it is Sinanju equipped with a beam ax. If you use connecting parts, you can also use the action scene to swing around in a naginata shape. Also, the beam ax and bazooka can be connected to the shield.

The beam rifle has a connection attachment, and you can connect the bazooka to the bottom of the rifle's barrel and change it to a long barrel that sniped General Revil. Bazooka can of course be held by itself. In the state of Sinanju, the bazooka alone was not equipped in the play, so it is a form unique to toys.

Beam Gatling can be attached under Unicorn Gundam's shield. Since there are 3 shields in the deployed state together with the main body, you can also display it as a shield funnel state at the end of the game, although the colors are different.

EX parts for Unicorn Gundam + Unicorn Gundam. The exquisite size of the bazooka, not too big and not too small, is good. The grenade launcher at the bottom of the bazooka can be removed and held in your hand.

Then, combine two types of EX parts into a full armor unicorn gundam. There is also a sense of weight with a spectacular amount of armament as set.The figure equipped with weapons like a needle mountain is very powerful.

Equipped with a beam rifle and a shield from the EX parts of the general Lizel machine. A long-barreled rifle looks great on the ReZEL. The shield is also thick and has a strong presence.

Then, I changed my backpack, equipped it with a mega beam launcher, and headed to the commander's machine with Captain Nome and others on board. The main wing that extends to the back has become a more heroic silhouette. The mega beam launcher is connected to the back with an arm and can be equipped as it is.

Although there is no transformation mechanism, the silhouette on the back is reminiscent of the WR form. It changes to an impression like a flight form at an angle. This is the EX parts equipped state of General Revil specification. Armed with a mega beam launcher. Equipped with a shield, the silhouette is tightened.

Equipped with a defender b unit. It seems to be quite strong with a large rear unit reminiscent of G Defensor, waist armor with added vernier, and two mega beam launchers. Hold the Mega Beam Launcher at the same time. Since the base of the launcher is a ball joint, the angle of fire is flexible.

Summary

"MOBILITY JOINT GUNDAM VOL.3" has extremely high play value because you can enjoy many variations by rearranging each aircraft with EX parts, and the level of perfection of each aircraft is high. If Sinanju is also fully equipped, it will be as large as the Full Armor Unicorn Gundam. The combined action is also fun.

In addition, Rizel also has a sexy arrangement and a surprising degree of perfection with a large number of weapons. By all means, please pick your favorites in this bullet as well.
