While the overall look and the detail of this kit looks amazing, those still look like Exia ankles to me. My excitement is tempered. It looks great, but my Exia falls over whenever I breathe on it wrong. Hopefully they've managed to design better joint integrity while maintaining the aesthetics.
Well, the rest of the joints are a new mold so I'd doubt that the ankles wouldn't be, but even if they aren't apparently the MG exias ankles and hips have been fixed since the release of the r2 and all subsequent exias have had no problem (like dark matter and avalanche despite being heavier), although I can't confirm this myself.
The Dark Matter is indeed a touch firmer, but the design itself is the problem. It stayed up for about a week, then started to give out. I ended up using the swords on the hip as another set of contact points to keep it stands.
It is just a prototype but the feet look a little off. Everything else just looks awesome!
ReplyDeleteOoooh! Looks like the knees and front skirt will have the missile gimmick.

DeleteLooks like they will be using the wrist joints the 00 had
ReplyDeleteIm not sure if the the 4,860 yen price tag is a good thing or a bad thing.
