This HG (High Grade) model kit is the second release in a new Macross series, and it features the "YF-29 Durandal Valkyrie (piloted by Alto Saotome)" with a sharp design. Here are the key features and included accessories for this model:
Key Features:
- It adopts the "Part Replacement Three-Stage Transformation (Shortcut Change)" system, which simplifies the transformation sequence by using interchangeable parts. This ensures ease of assembly, a wide range of articulation, and refined forms for each mode.
- Faithfully recreates the graceful curves of the forward-swept wings in Fighter Mode and the distinctive silhouette of Gerwalk Mode. The Battroid Mode showcases a sleek bodyline reminiscent of the series.
- The articulation of the arms is expanded by using a pull-out shoulder mechanism.
- The chest incorporates a 3-axis articulation system, allowing for extensive movement in various directions.
- Features deployable missile hatches on the shoulders and legs, and the shield can store a knife, just like in the series.
- Utilizes "polarization molding" for parts like the Fold Quartz and canopy, which change appearance based on the angle of light.
- The water-slide decals included in the kit are thin yet offer excellent coverage, allowing for vibrant color reproduction even when applied over dark-colored parts.
- Includes a variety of expressive hand parts for creating various poses.
