Bandai skipped a great opportunity to make an awesome RD Zaku. It could have been much better. Personally, what disturbs me is that the missile pods doesn't come with that ring to attach them to the legs, like they should have. It feels like the missile pods are floating or just glued there. Also, the head looks just wrong... A commander antenna would sure help it look cooler. But besides all that, your review was excellent! Great job!
I happy someone finally showed this figure, awesome review.
Unfortunately I have to agree with Joshua this Zaku is just not up to caliber with any Damashii , MSIA or Extended. So many holes !!!! it really takes away from the figure. Not only that with the tank coming out completing the RD version of the msia deluxe Zaku II is going to cost around $100. Crazy times friend, I say bring on more Gundam Wing figures in the line.
@patreck1969 I agree. Since I am such a UC 0079 fan though, I kinda have to like it by default lol. But some wing figures would rock. Heavyarms has a lot of potential to be one of the best in my opinion.
:S i expected better detail from the spirits line. not their best work, and a shame too as zakus are awesome...... but i no less appreciate your review. so thankyou
the gundam looks okay, but the zaku looks bad.... WHY WHY WHY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@joshuagundamu I kind of feel like it's less detailed to make it more "cartoon accurate" hence the rounded edges, and general bulkiness. I feel RD figures are more cartoon accurate, as MSIA is more of a realistically styled line of figures.
@GOUFmaster79 Did you have a minitripod for your reviews? I'm considering doing some myself, starting with two I brought home from the office yesterday. I can't name them, but I hope nobody has beaten me to reviewing them here.
I've been collecting RD figs for the past 19 months, and I can say I've amassed a bunch of them guarding my office desk. :) Except for a lone Revoltech Kerberos Panzer Cop and some Kotobukiya Berserga minis, everything else has been all RD.
@WeissVogel I actually use a full size tripod. I film these on my work desk, and set the tripod right in front of the desk and I sit behind it. However, I don't see any problem with using a mini tripod. Make some reviews! I'll watch them. I want to see some reviews of a few RD's as well i've been on the fence about.
I would LIKE to point out a couple flaws in this figure... but the awesomeness of this figure and my unhealthily obsessive love for Zakus will not allow it lol
I like how you get all those extra pieces,like the extra shield and shoulder armor. That way you can have more than one of these and display them each with different armor configurations. Like two spiked shoulder pads,or two shields,ect.
I love that guy ! Great figure, didn't like the hole but you don't really see them.
Nice review !
