Incoming!!! Gundam Adapt

Postby skywarp-2 » Mon May 28, 2007 9:07 am

Ok, i know this is forum is about Transformers, but there are some of us who like other Mecha as well.. so here is a sample of something really cool.. Not to mention they would be great fodder for my Revoltech Prime, or Megatron Minions..

From what I understand they are about 5 Inches, and come fully prepainted and ultra detailed.. here is the link to the images:

So basically cool looking little statues that you can swap parts on? Looking at the pictures they have zero articulation. Definitely not worth the money to me.

Yeah, if it doesn't have the articulation we've come to expect from Gundam, what's the point?

It's like making a Transformer that doesn't transform. Who wants a mobile suit you can't pose?

The MSA-005 looks awesome. I think the set is worth that one. The detail is great too. Cool stuff.

The orange one looks pretty cool, though I would like some articulation on him. But he makes a good statue

Hm, $40 for four 5 inch statues that seem to have no articulation just removable armor and are professionally detailed


Yep, unless they add in articulation, not worth it.
