This is a review of Bandai Gunpla action figure GUNDAM UNIVERSE OZ-00MS2 Tallgeese II from Mobile Suit Gundam Wing series.
Bandai GUNDAM UNIVERSE OZ-00MS2 Tallgeese II Review
It's worth noting that the only new addition to this figure is the head, while the rest of the components are derived from the Tallgeese 1. In terms of the texture and appearance of the white parts, there aren't any significant differences.
Striking Facial Features
The newly sculpted head is where the Tallgeese II truly shines. The sharp, well-crafted eyes give the figure a striking and cool appearance. The red accents under the eyes and the ductwork details are painted with precision. The crest on the head is another highlight, featuring impeccable sculpting and paintwork.
Faithful Body Shape
The body shape of the Tallgeese II remains consistent with the Tallgeese 1, featuring the characteristic plump physique seen in this series.
Powerful Legs and Armaments
The legs, in particular, are quite robust, deviating slightly from the anime's depiction but offering a more muscular and powerful form. On the right shoulder, there's the Dover Gun, complete with a movable connecting arm and a ball joint for the barrel connection. The left shoulder features a shield with similar articulation.
Detailed Backpack Features
Flipping the figure to the back, you'll find that the base of the booster can move in various directions, including up, down, left, and right. The wings on the booster can also be opened, although there's no specific deployment gimmick for the booster itself.
Weaponry and Accessories
Tallgeese 2 includes a single beam saber blade, an improvement over Tallgeese 1, which lacked this accessory. The figure's Dover Gun has a secure grip, although its connection to the shoulder armor does impose some limitations on its direction and angle. Posing sideways can be challenging, but forward-facing poses feel natural.
Movability and Articulation
The stand joint follows the common type seen in the series, providing added stability to the figure. The rotation of the hips offers a range of approximately 30 degrees.
Summary
In conclusion, the Bandai GUNDAM UNIVERSE OZ-00MS2 Tallgeese II offers an intriguing addition to the Gundam Universe series. While the figure primarily incorporates components from Tallgeese 1, the newly sculpted head with its striking features is a standout addition.
The figure stays true to the basic Tallgeese design and movement characteristics. It also addresses some shortcomings of Tallgeese 1, such as the inclusion of a beam saber blade. While it may not drastically deviate from its predecessor, Tallgeese II manages to enhance the overall experience.
If you're a fan of the Tallgeese series or simply seeking a solid Gundam figure, the Tallgeese II is a commendable choice. Its faithful representation, enhanced accessories, and attention to detail make it a worthwhile addition to your Gundam collection.
