P-Bandai ROBOT魂 SPIRITS <SIDE MS> MS-06F-2 Zaku II [ Rangefinder ] ver. ANIME

The P-Bandai ROBOT魂 SPIRITS presents the MS-06F-2 Zaku II [Rangefinder] ver. ANIME, featuring a unique blend of design elements from the One Year War Zaku and the F2 type from 0083. This review delves into the specific modifications and enhancements of this figure.

Head and Left Shoulder Redesign

The new modeling incorporates changes in the head and left shoulder, with the addition of a device for connecting to the rangefinder cable on the left side. Notably, the mono eye retains its original movement.

Fuselage and Coloring

While the fuselage remains consistent with the F2 type, there's a subtle change in coloring. The greenish hue shifts to a darker, almost black shade, offering a distinct visual appeal.

Arms and Legs

Minimal changes are observed in the arms and legs, primarily focusing on color variations. The left shoulder sees a redesign, eliminating the thorns of the spiked armor.

Gatling Shield and Back Options

The figure comes fully equipped with a Gatling shield, derived from the Gouf Custom. The shield is movable, and the Gatling can be removed, providing versatile display options.

Gunstock Type Rangefinder

A unique addition is the gunstock-type rangefinder, serving as a distance measuring device rather than a weapon. It features a clear parts tip and connects to the head via a lead wire cable.

Xamel Gun Mount and Raketen Garden

The Xamel gun mount on the back includes deployable outriggers with ball joint connections. The Raketen Garden, situated on the left and right side of the joint, can be attached to the backpack. The Xamel cannon can be combined with the gunner's Zaku's Xamel cannon.

Articulation and Effects

Despite the slender build compared to the gunner version, the F2 type Zaku maintains similar movement capabilities. Stiff joints ensure stability, allowing for dynamic poses. Effects such as Effect Set 02 can be applied to the Gatling Shield.

Summary

The ROBOT SPIRITS Zaku II F2 type (for rangefinder) ver. ANIME offers a compelling addition to the collection. With shared movement attributes with the gunner version, new models in the head and shoulders, and unique accessories like the stock-type rangefinder, this figure provides an engaging display. The combination possibilities with the Xamel cannon further enhance its appeal, making it a worthy addition for collectors and enthusiasts alike.
