Banpresto S.C.M (Special Creative Model) has provided a cheaper alternative to Gundam MSIA (Mobile Suit In Action) action figures. The latest S.C.M has made a big breakthrough especially on articulation. I didn’t buy S.C.M Zaku, Gouf & Prototype Gundam cos I prefer GM/RGM more than other mobile suits. This S.C.M is very detail and it is really very posable. The shortcomings would be the lack of accessories and packaging.
I think your hanger background is paying off for your photoshot brother. I remember there was a robot like this one in the earlier days of gundam but have 2 large cannon on both side of his shoulder.
ReplyDeleteCheaper than MSIA you say?
ReplyDelete>Leon: Thats Guncannon
how about the detail?
ReplyDeletei like the leg parts, it looks more taller
My hands are itchy to touch that gundam.
ReplyDeleteThe hanger background is damn nice!!

SCM is usually less than S$20/- but MSIA cost around S$30/- in Singapore. Sad to say that MSIA is no longer in production now that Damashii 'The Robot Spirit' had taken over.

About the detail, I like the visor a lot. Looking thru the visor, it gives you the impression that there are mechanic parts within.
SCM is slightly taller than MSIA & Gundam Fix

You have a lot of Gundams to touch already! Ha! Ha!

Agree! This time round, the money is well-spent.
Hey, I hate to ask in such a public space, but would you at all be willing to sell me your SCM Ex GM? We can discuss details over email if you're interested (I have an Ebay and a Paypal account if you're interested) Just let me know =)
ReplyDeleteI'm terribly sorry. I happened to like this piece a lot and not willing to let it go at this point of time. Hope that you will get yours in no time.
