A modified G-Fighter designed for anti-ground combat.  Instead of the twin rotating canon they have replaced it with a convention rocket launchers which I guess that makes it more accurate than ever. Note also the two large fuselage rocket booster under its wings.

Behold the 1/144 XN-Raiser … I thought at first the design was similar to HRDUDU on Hazel. This will be included in the Hobby Japan October issue.

HCMPRO Hi-Nu Gundam is a superb figure its articulation and other gimiks is awesome. I really like the display base of Hi-Nu Gundam you can actually attach the funnels on each sides of the base and one on the top. The other which is the six funnels floats some where lol cause the base can only attach 5 funnels. The details are really good you could see the Amuro insignia on the shield and on the right shoulder.

The clay bazooka can be attached on the back. The 6 funnels can be attached and detached. Just be careful on moving the head cause you might slip or flip out the V Fin antennae it happens to me once the V fin antennae falls off and it is hard to find it again. The small gold plated on the back of the burners is visible. Each attachable funnels can be moved on the back.

This is really a superb HCM-PRO and is a welcome addition to your added HCMPRO Collection. This is highly recommendable it displays beautifully anywhere like on top your monitor, inside a glass cabinet, on top of your TV or your ref. perhaps, or even your office desk lol.

Here are some of the complete pics for SHCPro Gundam RX-78-2 Real Type color ver.

I like the color of this one compare to the original one its much more meaner and has a darker color tone

Well I guess this is going to the best MG of the year….

Now this clearly explains on how articulated this MG Exia is … and I really do like added Green clear part on its legs. And I don’t know what’s the small red botton part that was sitting on the
right side of Setsuna. I really can’t wait for this one.

TF ANIMATED MEGATRON REVIEW

Box Quotes: Back on CYBERTRON, when it is late at night, and very dark, robots tell each other stories of the war. They spin stories about the deeds of MEGATRON, and though robots don’t feel cold, the listeners shiver. The only ones who don’t enjoy a scary MEGATRON are the old ones, the ones who were there. Those old AUTOBOTS remember the real MEGATRON. Many of them bear scars sustained in the heat of his fusion cannon, or dents delivered by his powerful swords. To those old robots, MEGATRON is no monster; he is a warrior so vicious and terrible that monsters pale in comparison.

Galactic Powers & Abilities:

No known weaknesses
Scientific, strategic and engineering genius
Fusion cannon can disintgrate up to 40 feet of solid steel

TF Animated Megatron Toy Review

This is the new face of Megatron and he is once again reincarnated on the new TF series. I haven’t seen the whole new series yet but the toy class is just awesome. These is the best toy in TF Animated class series. Megatron’s vehicle mode looks like a weird looking hover type alien ship. I know we love to see Megatron on an unusual new form. It has one nasty big canon sitting on the middle when it is in vehicle mode. You can flip two wings on each side and can even flip a landing wheel on the middle down below the vehicle mode. The toy includes a small missile which you can put it in to the canon and can fire away like a projectile.

Transformation to robot mode is actually very easy. I can actually transform it without using the manual for instruction but if you are a newbie I suggest you go for the manual first before transforming it. Articulation on robot mode is very solid and very good, for every movements of its arms or legs has a clicking sound. That clicking sound means that articulation is very good.

This is what awed me is because of its big cannon on his left arm it can hold it forward or upwards, or sidewards with out any problem of looseness on its arm articulation. He can carry it with out any hassle of breaking down an arm or any support that can hold the huge cannon. The arms are double jointed like the ones you see in Gundam’s arm. You can move his hands sideways or in 360 degree motion which is very unique unlike any other voyager class the hands is in fix position.

That is why they made the articulation very rock solid with clicking sounds just because it can balance to carry its big cannon. The big cannon can act as a huge blade by fliping the red ones on downwards. You can also remove the big cannon off of its arms.

The details on TF Animated Megatron is really good I like its original G1 colors like White, Silver, and Black. You can see the Decepticon insignia on its middle chest. The red ones that you see is made out of clear plastic also the hands is made out of a clear red plastic.

In conclusion I will give the TF Animated Megatron a 9/10 this is a very rock solid figure. And is a welcome addition to your growing TF.

Well what can I say this is an excellent EMSIA version of a Nu Gundam. It has lots of accessories to boot. And also when you look closely you can see some fresh details of the EMSIA. The articulation is great but it has some limitations on its own. Like when you put on a full load like funnels on the back or the bazooka on the back. Another issue regarding this one was the funnels. The funnels can easily falls off when you are holding the fig up on the air. So you need to be very careful when your holding up high on the air or when you are moving the EMSIA Nu Gundam into a different positions with its funnels on you don’t wanna let the funnels loose.

There are also a lot of small parts on this one like the funnel connectors (a U shape that holds each funnels) so be very careful about it I nearly lost one of this when I’m connecting the funnels on to each others. So the over all issue regarding about this one was the funnels itself. The funnels can easily loose a bit when you are folding it and it wasn’t too tight at all.

Another plus factor about the EMSIA RX-93 Nu Gundam was its accessories. The accessories includes an escape pod (like a red ball shape which imitates the escape pod of Char Aznable on the animation itself). Two beam sabers one is for the ordinary beam saber, and the other is for the long and powerful version of the beam saber. The shield, the shield has a great details on it. I really love the Amuro insignia with a Unicorns head on it. And also last but not the least was the extra hands. The EMSIA came with 7 hands. One set of each hand was for the grip, second set of the hands was for an open palm hand then the third set of the hands was for holding the beam rifle and the bazooka, the last one was a single hand that holds the escape pod which is on the left side.

Speaking of weapons this one came with what else fin funnels, a hyper bazooka, and a beam rifle. You can put the hyper bazooka in the middle of the back of the Nu Gundam for it to rest when it isn’t needed for the combat.

Overall this action fig is excellent and a must have. I think that this is second overall highest among the EMSIA line (well the first one obviously was the EMSIA Sazabi). I’m really happy about this fig its really nice for display. This is a must have fig even if you are not a fan of CCA (Char Counter Attack) series.
