Gunpla limited Bandai NXEDGE Style [MS UNIT] RX-93-ν2 Hi-ν Gundam [ Tokyo Limited Ver. ] Review
In this comprehensive review, we'll delve into the intricate details of the limited edition Bandai NXEDGE Style RX-93-ν2 Hi-ν Gundam, Tokyo Limited Version.
Body
The overall design mirrors the standard Hi-ν, with noticeable changes in the color palette. The once blue elements have transformed into a captivating metallic purple, while the white molding now features a purplish hue. The rear, including the fin funnel, remains unpainted, contributing to a slightly unsteady balance due to the increased weight.
Face
Retaining the original's sleek profile, the Hi-ν Gundam Tokyo Limited Ver. boasts enhanced facial features. The lines beneath the eyes are more defined, providing a more determined appearance. The metallic paint on the eyes and sharp antenna adds a striking touch, ensuring a captivating look from every angle.
Body Shape and Texture
While the body shape remains consistent, the shift from blue to metallic purple significantly alters the texture, elevating the Gundam's overall aesthetic. Around the waist, the silver and black components maintain their original colors, maintaining a balanced and visually appealing composition.
Arms and Legs
The arms and legs showcase minimal changes, with the white molding adopting a purplish tint, enhancing the tactile quality. The left shoulder features the customary marking, and although the arms are asymmetrical, the absence of a saber deployment gimmick may disappoint some enthusiasts.
Option Set and Accessories
The fin funnel containers on the back are articulated with ball joints, offering dynamic posing possibilities. The beam rifle retains its classic color, while the shield undergoes a transformation from blue to metallic purple. The beam saber, in metallic blue, complements the overall aesthetic.
Articulation and Playability
The Gundam maintains its poseability, allowing for expressive movements despite its deformed body type. However, some users may find the upper arms prone to detachment. Despite this, the model excels in holding a rifle with both hands, and the stand hole in the crotch facilitates stable display options.
Summary
NXEDGE Style's Gundam line has ceased new releases, adding a sense of rarity to this Tokyo Limited Version. Despite its discontinuation, the Hi-ν Gundam impresses with its luxurious finish. The shift from blue to metallic purple, coupled with the purplish tint on the white molding, elevates the overall texture. Although unexpected, this purchase proved to be highly satisfying, offering a unique and visually appealing addition to any Gunpla collection.
