Robot Damashii GN-000 O Gundam
by: archaznable

Robot Damashii GN-000 O Gundam is an awesome plain and simple Gundam no complicated design or what so ever just some curvish and sexy design. O Gundam shares the same resemblance to the original RX-78-2 Gundam design.

The articulation of O Gundam is really really good you can do any pose you like with it. You can do the pose of what the original RX-78-2 Gundam can do. You can do some high kicks with it, kneeling or squatting factor is excellent. Basic arm articulation is also topnotch. The head can move up or down, left and right sadly it doesn’t do 360 because it is being block by two fins on its body or the neck thing the one that is colored yellow.

The playability factor of this figure is superb the only thing that you needed to be careful while playing with it is the V fin on its forehead. Because the V fin is somewhat loose and the V fin is small. And also while removing the GN Particle Tank at the back be careful on removing it mine broke when I pull it out just to replace it with the GN drive on the back. So be really careful with that one don’t force it out when pulling it.

The only down factor with this fig is the lack of weapons the only weapons it has is just the basics. Like standard Beam Gun, Beam Saber, and Gundam shield nothing special there. The package also has 6 set of hands. These are the hands that is included: two open palm hands, two close fist, and two open fist to hold the beam gun and beam saber or the Gundam shield.

Overall this fig is really superb or should I say … Legendary and an epic of its awesomeness (lol too much overacting)  I would give this an 8/10 why because of lack of weapons. If you wanted to fiddle or toy around with your figs then this one is for you.

Well that’s all amigo’s see yah in the next review

Robot Damashi Cherudim Saga
Review by: archaznable

Cherudim Saga is the 2nd upgrade to the original Cherudim of Gundam OO. The Cherudim Saga poses a lot of fire power its like a walking battleship with lots of guns.

Cherudim Saga has actually 7 guns that can be mounted on its body. Well you heard it 7 Guns I think that is the 2nd Gundam that has lots of Guns that I’ve known The other one would be the Heavy Arms of Gundam Wing.

This are the following guns the Cherudim Saga has (according to mahq.net):

GN assault carbine x 1, GN submachine gun x 2, GN beam pIstol II x 2, GN beam pistol x 2, GN small shield x 1, GN missile pod (front section) x 4, GN missile container (back section) x 1

As you can see here the two GN Sub-machine gun can be mounted both of its knees. Well that is nice it will be easy for the Cherudim saga to grab the guns. Then the two GN Beam pistol can be mounted on both of its side holster. The the two GN Submachine gun can be mounted on its back I don’t know if its the real GN Submachine gun because it can be converted to an axe. Then last but not the least the GN Assault Carbine can be mounted on to the side. Same as the small GN Shield.

Overall this is the most awesome OO Gundams that I’ve seen so far because it has lots of guns that was attached into it. Even thou it has a big armor the Cherudim saga can stand on its own weight. The feet has some kind of small tilting I don’t know what you call them just to balance out when he is standing or doing some crazy pose. Also there are some hidden compartment for dept charges or grenades that was attached on it butt. You can even close and open it to peek on whats inside of it.

Articulation of this baby is really good it can do some John Woo style where you had two guns in your hand blasting away some Feds and saving the world stopping war. This is also a kneeler kind of fig and can do some high kick pose.

Well over all this is really an awesome and welcome addition to your growing collection of Robot Damashii. You can’t go wrong grabbing with this one. 7 Guns really makes an impact out of it and if it doesn’t have 7 Guns I won’t be getting this. I’ll give this an 8/10

RX-0 Unicorn Gundam (Destroy Mode)
Review by: archaznable

Unicorn Gundam (Destroy Mode) is an awesome alternate mode of the normal Unicorn Gundam. In Destroy Mode you will see clearly all the strategically placed opened hatch red lines. You will really see a difference between the normal and destroy mode because in normal mode you will only see the plain white Unicorn Gundam.

Apart from its beautifully detailed lines on destroy mode it also really packs a kick ass weapons. I really like the detail of the twin gatling gun. The twin gatling gun can be separated and can make a pose ala John Woo style of pointing a two gun in yo face. Also the twin gatling gun can be attached on the shield it self making it really look bad ass.

The only thing that frustrates me is that there are lots of small parts on this one. For example the little tiny square thing that you can attach on the back pack that acts as a shield holder is really small. When I was about to put that small tiny part on the back pack it pops out and I loose it. I was so frustrated at that time because I didn’t have a chance to take some pic with it. And sadly I couldn’t find it any longer. Thankfully I have one spare that came in with the Unicorn normal mode and can attach it succesfully on Destroy mode. Gawd I really hate small parts.

Articulation with the Unicorn Gundam (Destroy and Normal) is good it can do some normal poses. It can do kneeling position the only thing that it doesn’t have is its waist articulation. The waist is somewhat like a stuck body part that it couldn’t move an inch. I wish every mobile suit has a waist articulation.

The Unicorn Gundam (Destroy Mode) gimmick lies within it’s twin gatling gun and some hidden beam saber holder on its arms. Also I’ve seen some one who already posted that a single Unicorn Gundam carries 4 Gatling guns where as you needed to buy another set of Unicorn Gundam (Destroy mode) to achieve it. I know it will look cool with 4 Gatling on it but it’s really way over my budget plus I only need one Unicorn Gundam.

The Unicorn Gundam (Destroy Mode) come with the following weapons and accesories:

Twin Gatling gun
Bazooka
Beam Rifle
Two extra clips for the beam rifle
Shield
Extra V fin

One holder for the gatling gun that will be placed in the middle of the gattling gun so that you can attached it on the shoulder.
Two hand trigger that you can attached on the gattling gun in separate mode. Two extra beam saber handler one then two beam sabers. One shield clip that you can attached on the shoulder to carry the shield. And last but not the least 4 pairs of hand.

Over all this is a solid version of Unicorn Gundam (Destroy Mode) just be careful with the small part or you might loose it. The only thing that frustrates me is that when I was trying put the single gatling gun on to its hand it falls easily because the hand grip is really thin. So when I was doing some of its poses the single gatling gun falls off.

In conclusion this is a really good fig the Unicorn Gundam (Destroy Mode) is fun to play with. It’s much cooler if you have the normal mode so that you can make a pose of it side by side. This is a recommended fig if you are a fan of the Unicorn. I’m a fan of the OVA and I can’t wait to see the next episode of Unicorn OVA. I will give the RD Unicorn Gundam (Destroy Mode) a 3.5 / 5

Thanks for reading see yah on the next review ciao…

Robot Damashii AMS-129 Geara Zulu
Review by: archaznable

AMS-129 Geara Zulu is from the Unicorn Gundam OVA this is I guess a beef up Zaku or should I call it the most advanced Zaku II class in the Universal Century era. Zulu and Zaku share the same design and weaponry resemblance with each other. From head to toe, from the shoulder armor to the whole body armor.

What I really like about the Geara Zulu is it’s dark green color and black it’s a really good combination color with a stash of white for details. Geara Zulu is a grunt unit like its Zaku II predecessor. The design really reminds me of a Nazi soldier look (world war 2).

Hence even it’s weapon design really resemble that of a Nazi era weaponry like the Panzer Faust (modern day RPG Rocket Propelled Grenade) an anti-tank that a lone soldier can carry it easily. Stick Grenade or popularly known as the “Potato Masher” a grenade type that was used by the Wehrmacht. The machine gun that Geara Zulu used resemble that of an StG44 sub machine gun.

Well enough of the facts and comparison lets take a look at the articulation of Geara Zulu. The articulation of Geara Zulu was nice it can do a lot of basic poses. The only pose that it can’t do is to split its legs apart. Or you can’t raise the arm up really because the shoulder armors are blocking the way. Another is that you can’t rotate the body to its full 360 degrees you can only rotate the body just 1/4 of it.

Coolness factor of Geara Zulu is really awesome and up the scale I really love how they carry there weapons on the back. And how compact it really was. The weapons that Geara Zulu that can carry on its back are Beam Tomahawk, Panzerfaust, and two stick grenades. Also there are a hand full of magazine clips up on its front skirt armor.

Front and side skirt armor are also articulated you can move the front skirt armor up to make way for the legs to make a kneeling pose. Also you can move the side skirt armor to make way to split the legs just a little bit apart.

The Geara Zulu weapons and accessories includes are the Beam machine gun rifle, stick 2x grenade, a rocket propelled grenade, and a 2x beam tomahawk. Plus it has an assorted hands and a plain front skirt armor which you can swap it with a front skirt armor that has full of magazine clips.

Over all Geara Zulu is a kick ass Robot Damashii fig you will be awe struck by its awesome array of assorted weaponry and a handsome looks. If you wanted to have an MS grunt unit that has a lot of weapons on it then this is the one for you. I’ll gonna give this one 4/5

HGUC AMX-011 ZAKU III
Reviewed by: archaznable

Snapbuild and panel lined

————————————————————

This is my review for the HGUC AMX-011 Zaku III this is the second version of the Zaku III which is the white one. The other version of Zaku III is the green one that the Custom version. The white is for the mass produced Zaku III.

Now here’s the perspective view of the Zaku III as you can see on this pictures Zaku III is fat but with some huge curves. Those huge curves are the legs armor which has a bat like wings. The feet is uber big. Body armor is really good as well as the arms. The cool thing about this is that it’s shoulder armors. The shoulder armors is like a combination of Zaku I and the Kampfer. The head is also cool because he has 3 antennas on his head which is a very unique one in the family line of Zaku’s.

For the accessories and weaponry. It only comes with four hands and a beam gun with a long beam saber that is attached in the muzzle of its gun. And also a single beam saber.

Here’s another perspective view of the AMX-011 Zaku III. Take note on the back pack of the Zaku III it has a lot of verniers and I think that is like a drop tank on its back pack.

Now on with the articulation well I think that this Zaku III really has a small amount of articulations because of its huge armors that is attached to his body. The Zaku III can only do limited poses like moving arms forward and backwards but you can’t do a raise the arm pose. Also the legs has a limited poses like basic walking stances it can not do a kneeling position because of its uber big legs armor. The left shoulder armor also has some articulations that you can move it through ups or down motion.

In this picture set you will see a special feature of this Zaku III and this special feature is the front skirt armor. That can act as a pea shooter lol … The hand trigger on the front skirt armor is retractable so that it can be held by two hands.

Here you can also see the back pack of the Zaku III you can also move the drop tank holder (the white one) by an up and down motion.

Over all review of the AMX-011 Zaku III is that this kit is good it’s really solid. The only down side of this is the limited articulation that you can only do limited posing. The good side is that this is big it’s as tall as an MG RX-78-2. There are numerous big HGUC out there and I have counted this one as good ones.

So I’ll rate this one 7 / 10

PS. after a year and a half back log in the cabinet. I only decided to build this kit out of nowhere and out of boredom. hehehe

HGUC RX-79[G] GUNDAM THE GROUND WAR SET
Review by: archaznable

Snap build with out Panel lines and decals this is just for the soul purpose review of the kit before I put some details and decals on it.

——————————————

This is my review for the HGUC RX-79[G] Gundam The Ground War Set. This HGUC is also in part with the UC Hard Graph lines since because it has those tiny vehicles like the ones in the previous UC Hard Graph releases. The main part of this set is of course is the RX-79[G] Gundam itself. The RX-79[G] that was in the set is the same as the single box release of the RX-79[G]. The only difference between them according to Dalong.net is the handle bars of the shield that is colored gray and the triple dotted that was colored gray in the knee armors.

Here are some of the perspective view of the RX-79[G]

As you can see in the perspective view from left to right and on the back. The kit is roughly very similar to it’s MG counter part and thank God for that one. I knew they can shrink the MG into a smaller ones with the same details but with a lost of the inner frames.

Well here’s the complete line up of its weapon system the gimmicks and some of its stuff.

The RX-79[G] Gundam Ground War Set comes with a very long collapsible Artillery cannon. A machine, then a small shield, and two huge bazooka gun. It also comes with two small hover tanks, 4 small soldiers, and a 4 pair of hands. It also comes in two extra GM heads that you can interchangeable it with the main head of the RX-79[G].

Well as you can see here’s the small vehicles and a small soldiers that comes along with it. The vehicles is also has a small articulations like you can open the front doors and the back doors and you can also rotate the machine gun turret on top. Just be careful when you rotate the turret since the machine gun is really very small it is prone to breakage or you can lose it by accident.

Well right now here’s view of the main artillery weapon of the RX-79[G] Gundam.

As you can see the main artillery is really long and it’s collapsible too so that you can insert it on the main back pack compartment. The collapsible part is the muzzle of the artillery weapon then the main body of the artillery weapon, and then the hand trigger of the artillery weapon, and also not to mention the magazine itself. Once you collapse the artillery weapon. You can hide the artillery weapon inside the back pack compartment.

Here’s how its look like when you put in the back pack on the back of the RX-79[G] Gundam.

As you can see here you can separate the two blades on the back to make it on a 90 degree position. Then you can slid down the bottom of the back pack holder to really accommodate the big back pack compartment. Cause it won’t fit if you didn’t slid down the bottom holder. And after those procedures you can easily put the back pack and snap it on the back.

Here are some of the several poses of the RX-79[G] but as you can see on the last two pics he is reaching for his beam saber on the right legs. Because the beam saber holder of the RX-79[G] is well hidden on the legs part just the middle of the knee joints of the RX-79[G] Gundam.

Here on this picture you can see that the RX-79[G] is carrying a huge bazooka cannon. The cannon is some what heavy but it can support the weight of the elbow joints of the RX-79[G]. The huge bazooka cannon and the long artillery weapon is the same size as the RX-79[G].

Here on this picture you can see the RX-79[G] pose while holding the long barreled Artillery cannon. The pose is somewhat awkward since you needed to put the shield in front of the muzzle of the artillery cannon for it to support its very powerful fire power.

——————————————-

In conclusion to the review I really love this HGUC set it has a lot of stuff that you can play with. Plus this set is really good for diorama’s if you are planning to build one since it already has small vehicles and small soldiers. The only dissappointing factor on this set is that it comes in with decals lol. I’m really bad in putting decals or im not really good in putting decals. It ends up destroying the decals first before I put it on the kit. I wish they put in stickers instead of decals. That’s really my frustration on decals lol.

So for the verdict of this kit is I’ll give it a 9/10 …

well as promised here’s the RD Unicorn Gundam (Normal Mode)
Reviewed by: archaznable

Here’s an over view from the front to the back pics of the RD Unicorn Gundam. As you can see the RD Unicorn Gundam is in a plain white color scheme. As in a very very plain white with no panel lines or whatsoever that would suffice its details well that sucks.

But I like the sexy curve of the Unicorn in normal mode. Over all view of the RD Unicorn was its whole body was in a perfect proportion but the head was kinda bit of small but it is aligned in to the body.

Now here are some of the action shots of the RD Unicorn Gundam … All I can say is that RD Unicorn Gundam is very very articulated you can move it’s body from left to right but not in a 360 degree motion. You can extend its shoulder a little so that he can hold the beam rifle facing front. You can make some perfect kneeling position of the Unicorn.

I really love to fiddle with the RD Unicorn because of its superb articulations. Everything was really tight and no falling parts. The only disappointing with this RD Unicorn is that it lacks details it doesn’t come with a Bazooka as oppose to the HGUC Unicorn normal mode version. Also it doesn’t have a stand.

Here’s the over all parts of the RD Unicorn Gundam (Normal Mode)

So over all the RD Unicorn is a great fig its pretty very plain and lack of bazooka put the RD Unicorn score down. It’s articulation and tightness in all of its part is really superb. I recommend this to every one if you are lazy in snap building an HGUC Unicorn Gundam.

Here is a selection of photographs and a review of the Transformers Pepsi convoy. It doesn’t matter if you are a small child still playing with cars or a grown adult who plays online casino (www.casino.com) in their spare time, everybody loves Transformers. I have taken pictures so you can see how it looks throughout all stages of it’s transformation. I hope you find this interesting and it helps you make the decision if you want one.

The truck mode

the trailer truck

below the trailer truck

the gun and the hand can be carried underneat the trailer

All I can say is this one is just good for display on a truck mode only with a Pepsi Can mounted on its trailer truck  but for the robot and poseability its horrible you can only move its arms upward and downward  also you cant move its head. Then the legs cant go sidewase or cant even do a split unlike like those in some TF like Jetfire or some MSIA or EMSIA. Well on the transformation side its pretty simple to master.

The HCM Pro Dynames

The HCM Pro Dynames is a very good toy and fun to play with althou just be careful with some of its small parts. The articulation is superb all joints are tight. The Dynames includes one GN Sniper Rifle, 1 Beam saber, 1 small saber, a pair of hands one close fist and an open palm. An open tripod and a close tripod for the GN Sniper, two large shields, and 4 small shields. One extra head for a big eye or some sort. An extra clip for the GN Sniper Rifle, a small handler for putting the GN Sniper Rifle on the left or right shoulder. So what did I miss ah two extra antenna’s that you can swap for the extra head. Well that’s what the HCMPro Dynames has.

Showing off its stuff and accessories

The back view look at the details of its burners its painted with gold

Super slash hehehe

Well that’s it maybe this is the best Gundam OO figs so far. I love the articulation and the playability factor on this one. Another thing that I love with this one is the GN Sniper Rifle. The details on the rifle is cool. I like the grey finish with a minimal black. This is highly recommended althou the only disadvantage on this is the fig is too small but what the heck small. I tell yah your gonna love playing this one.

Over all this is really big when I look on some video review of the comparison between LC Jetfire and LC Optimus Prime because I don’t have him yet in Leader Class. LC Jet Fire has the same height but a little bit lower on robot mode. But in the vehicle mode LC Jet Fire is very long. How long the Black Bird mode well it’s like you can take or put the LC Jet Fire above your arm on to your elbow. That’s how long LC Jet Fire is. LC Optimus Prime vehicle mode width is just on it’s after burner fuselage thing hehe. That’s how small LC Optimus Prime vehicle mode is compare to LC Jet Fire.

It is movie accurate it got its arm machine gun where you can put it on its arm. And then my favorite was its cane… lol behold the power of Jet Fire’s cane. This is also were you often see it on the movie. When transforming to vehicle mode this is were all the frustration begun. Because of its big size it’s easy to transform him the only problem is that it’s hard to align him straight. And you will often experience parts that will fall down during the transformation. But don’t worry you can put some pieces back together again easily because the connectors are ball joints.

Robot mode is really awesome you can see a lot of some fine detailing of it. I really like the slashed Decepticon insignia on it’s tail. I also really like his spike beard lol. The mech alive feature is on the middle of it’s chest. When you push it down you will hear LC Jet Fire talks saying “Jet Fire is my name” funny thou his voice doesn’t sound like old when you hear him talk. Then you will see some of the light and some slight movements of his head. While on vehicle mode there is also a botton where you could press to hear the sound of his sonic boom thrusters.

Over all this is highly recommended the only thing is that he is rare for some reasons. But if you go to a toy store and see this guy grab him. It’s worth every peso. Really love his vehicle mode because it resembles a real life aircraft. His vehicle mode is an old SR-71 Black Bird. Also don’t worry about his pointed tip it’s not hard its rubber to avoid injuring your fingers while transforming him.

Over all I give him 8.5/10 why because it’s lack of articulation of this guy. By the way on the packaging LC Jet Fire is Autobot’s but when you look at his tail it is a Decepticon. I think you might be confused here because Jet Fire originally came from Decepticons he switches side because he is dismayed by the leadership of the Decepticons which is a good thing thou lol. So grab him now lol but it will cost you 2,999 pesos hehe.
