Kidou Butouden G Gundam - Rain Mikamura Bust Figure

I wasn't able to procure the RAH DX version of Rain Mikamura, which of long sold out and out of print. So having this 'Mobile Fighter G Gundam' anime promotional figure character Situation Figure Bust (Banpresto),came as a consolation. The lovely Rain Mikamura is the childhood friend of Domon Kasshu who assists him during the Thirteenth Gundam Fight as his engineer, tactician and medic. The heroine eventually became the lover of Domon and they with the love fostering ultimate finishing move! There were figurines of Rain Mikamura beside this and RAH DX. Other niche source would either be B-Club or pre-painted resin recast from E2046. Some paint unevenness on the buttock however this 13cm bust didn't deter the sexiness Rain Mikamura donning her latex combat gear. The face sculpt was close to how rain looked in the anime with a touch of innocence. This is the epic moment before Rain Mikamura Gundam Trace System Jam which she got wrapped tight. Fan service :p

 

8" Gundam Maxter Action Figure

Hey Japanese!!! Machine Gun Punch!!!! These quotes of Chibodee Crocket (pilot) stuck in my mind for a long time having watched the Japanese language version of 'Mobile Suit Gundam G'. GF13-006NA Gundam Maxter is a mobile fighter for the nation of Neo America built for the 13th Gundam Fight. It was featured in the anime Mobile Fighter G Gundam.

The unit is piloted by boxer Chibodee Crocket always entering splendidly with grand entrance. Chibodee is much of a comic relief and the Neo America Gundam design is truly a strong stigma of US from American Footballer design with surfboard as shield, a pair of cowboy's gun aka Gigantic Magnum and best of all, the American Footballer shoulder pad. My favourite Gundam mobile suit from G Gundam. It's very U.S.A iconic mobile suit that dressed up like American football player and holding two pistols like cowboy. If you have watched the animation, You either love or be annoyed by Chibodee yelling Maxter Gundam killing move "Machine Gun Punch".

This is a revamped post of my previous. I'm using the packaging is the Japan version and had replaced the actual toy with a reissued version for U.S market. The U.S version had replaced the yellow portion of the Gundam with chrome. I had discarded the the Japan version due to yellowing but I do like the packaging a lot. One major flaw of this later version is that the face of Maxter Gundam, supposedly white had been smeared with blue. Also in comparison, the U.S version feel more plastic.

Bolt Gundam 8" Action Figure

Crush!!! Bolt Gundam GF13-013NR, a strong and robust Gundam mobile suit and the appearance tells it all. Fight with brute force using hammering weapon (Bolt cannon ball on left shoulder attached to beam chain and in toy form, a metal chain). Having board limps and really stout looking Bolt Gundam, this challenger is from Neo Russia. With new pics taken of the toy, here's 2.0 review of Bolt Gundam 1/100 scale Action Figure. The packaging is the Japan version however I had replaced the actual toy with a reissued version by Bandai American in 2003.

As the toy stands approximately 8", is provided at presentable height for display if you are not bothered by the sight of screws. It's a harden toy and with decent detailing in my opinion. In fact this Gundam designed by Mr Kunio Okawara, has a unique design for a Gundam and considered a meaty toy that is really value for money. But due to the board limbs, they kind to hinder the movable of the toy a lot and as a result, the poseabilities had been compromised.

Like most other G Gundams, the toy came with the core fighter as a gimmick. Not to forget, the core fight are to be attached to the Gundam to form the backpack. The figure on the another hand had been limit by the lack of articulation with ball joints only on the thigh while other joints can only go back and forth. 

8" Dragon Gundam Action Figure

Was going through so of my earlier posting to find out the few pics were taken of this toy so you can call this a version 2.0 review. Why I can it a toy cos the feel action figure has a rather plastic feel. The packaging is the Japan version however I had replaced the actual toy with a reissued version for US market. As the toy is approximately 8", is provided at presentable height for display. From an alternate time line of the Gundam series, very untypical setting tournament which can be a bit berserk to some. 

This Gundam represented Neo China and since myth regard Chinese as descendant of the dragon which resulted the creation of Dragon Gundam. The chest of MS is like a dragon ball and it's forearms had these majestically chrome dragon heads. There is a bendable dragon tail on the back of the head like pigtail kept by Chinese during the Qing dynasty. Like most other G Gundams, the toy came with the core fighter which has 4 funnels attached to it. These 4 funnels supposedly joined up to form the weapon, a pole with beam flag. Can't do so for the toy, nonetheless the pole and flag are included as accessories to the set. 

Not to forget, the core fight are to be attached to the Gundam to form the backpack. The figure on the another hand had been limit by the lack of articulation with ball joints only on the thigh while other joints can only go back and forth. Play the toy long enough, you should be able to get some nice poses. The toy is pretty abundant in market for an inexpensive price.
