Bump for justise. Finished the 00's base body and Beam Sabers. I'll post pictures when I'm back from work around 11:30 PM EST.
==> Be 11:50pm EST
Alright, back from work now and stuffs and here's the results
Base 00 Gundam Master Grade! The only difference between the base bodies for this one and the 00 Raiser is the knee armor.
Back view of the gundam
Size comparisons with a DS Lite
Motherfucking GN Drives that motherfucking light up but I can't motherfucking show because the motherfucking batteries are expensive as shit.
Beam saber handles can flip out on the back skirts.
Double jointed arm and fairly good range, almost touching his own shoulder.
Here's how far the arm goes out
GN Drives do pretty much everything they need to. They also move up and down from the backpack connection but it's very minor.
Leg posability is phenominal. Know you may say this is nothing but guess what
Master Grade Gundam Limbo Champion.
Basic Master Grade hands, 3 finger trigger finger split with posable thumb
But he comes with an additional hand that's a molded closed fist and the only posability is in the thumb and wrist.
Overall, I'm liking it more than my Crossbone X1 kit. Also yes, he can reach back and grab the beam saber handles while they're swung out.
Stay tuned for the main reason I got this kit. The badass accessories.
==> Finish the 00 Seven Swords G
Jesus Christ... That is imposing. Let's get to it
Here is the GN Short Sword, pretty self explanatory and solid.
Here it is in it's "Pistol" mode
And the best gimmick, the top can be separated and the two parts of the sword are connected via a wire. It's pretty ballin'
Here's the GN Long Sword
Here it is in it's rifle mode. An Addtional handle does pop out but it's tricky to get the other hand to hold it. Other than that, no weight issues
I do not like these GN Katars. They do not peg into the hand solidly. I'm probably going to give these the nail polish treatment.
The Katars come with bonus parts exclusive to the Master Grade. It has new mounts so you can place the katars akin to the
Original 00's katars.
You can also use the Katars as punching daggers thanks to these parts
And the glorious return of the GN Surf Board Sheild
You also get a Ray Park handle to join the 2 katars together to Ray Park it up. Unlike the Katar's built in handles, the hands hold it solidly.
Here's the bulky GN Buster Sword and holy shit it's as tall as the Gundam itself.
This is probably the only pose you can pull off with it in Sword Mode due to 2 factors. 1; Poor hand peg connection. 2; Duper Weight. You can try 2 handing it but it's not going to happen. What you need is an action base 2 to support the sword via a small hole used for the shield mode. That's the only way to alleviate weight issues with this thing
Here's the shield mode which is much more solid. But. I. Can't. Show. Off. It's. Light. Up. Gimmick.
And here's where the "G" in it's name comes from, the GN Sword II Blaster
Like the long sword, it has a pop out handle for holding it with both hands but is less trickier to work with.
For sword mode, just bend it up a bit.
Overall the kit is okay. It has it's problems. Mainly that some accessories just won't hold (Understandable for the Buster Sword, Katars are unforgivable), The upper arm to shoulder connection keeps popping off, when all the accessories are mounted they crash into one another for posing (Especially the long sword) and that the pop out shoulder is tricky to work with.
That's my wrap up, all in all, this is a kit you mainly buy for the looks and not for duper posability with all it's weapons. I assume the same of the Raiser except you trade off holding weapons properly for massive weight issues.
00 Qan[T] is up next.
