Release Date: April 2019
Price: 1,944 Yen
The shape of this Zaku II C-6 Type's chest has been altered from the C Type and reinforced to enhance its combat capability by adding vulcans on it.
It is also equipped with the "R6 Kit," a two multi-mount machine guns that is installed on its arms that provides the Mobile Suit additional armor, and is also the reason why the model number is written as C-6/R-6.
I already have the excellent Zaku type C/C-5, and there's not much here that makes me want to pick this up...
ReplyDeleteThe same can be said about the new "Red Comet Ver" of Char's Zaku II. The Origin line just has to many Zakus that are too similar.
Its almost like that is literally most Zakus. :thinking:
DeleteI guess I'll go for this version.
ReplyDeleteOh boy, judging from the design of this Zaku 2, it is pretty much the same ones sent to Side 7 to uncover the V project in the Origin's Manga. The 3 star decal on its head belong to a Lt. Ash, who is apart of the scout team with Gene, Denim, and Slender.
ReplyDeleteIt's also appears in Gundam the Origin VI number 101 unit is Denim's, and yes it's under Char's team, so the movie really connects to the manga
DeleteI can actually see the difference... The vulcan in the chest on that right side.
ReplyDeleteAdded camera on the upper left of the chest too.
DeleteOh yeah! Man this is actually going to be an awesome kit!
DeleteI need this, but now weapon set release, and no legs mobility type.
ReplyDeleteMaybe I pass, but I go pick a Char's Zaku.
It would be another perfect zaku kit if it include machine gun with drum mags, maybe I'll take the Char's Zaku then
ReplyDeleteAt least with this release I didn't have to pick up the type C/C5 again for having 2 different green zakus, and yeah dig those vulcan chest on the right side
ReplyDeleteSo the difference with the c5 is the chest vhlcan and the camera? Which 1 should choose ?
ReplyDeleteC5 also have chest option with camera the difference is the vulcan.
DeleteIn C5 you have two option of chests, rocket bagpacks, and commander antenna head
In C6 you have two options shoulder armor
In C5 you have all the C6 weapons plus machine gun with drum magz (old-style)
Know, you choose :)
This could've been a P-Bandai
ReplyDeleteNot really. It's a product designed to keep The Origin line still active at retail while resources are allocated to other product lines. I.e. they want to keep The Origin still active with a simple refresh while they work on Hathaway's Flash and assorted other projects. It's not something that's going to move a lot of units, and they know that. But it's there, you're here checking the news and maintaining that key "engagement" metric.
DeleteI really need MG of those.
ReplyDeletegot to be honest this is a cool Zaku version i NEVER expected to see as a kit.
