1/100 Virtue/Nadleeh & Others

The most interesting Gunpla at the moment is 1/100 Gundam Virtue/Nadleeh. Agree? ^^ Apart from the convertibility between the two modes, this is the last of the four Gundams in Gundam Double O. So, I believe folks who got the previously released Exia, Dynames and Kyrios are not going to miss this one too.

Another interesting point about 1/100 Virtue/Nadleeh is its price tag of 3,800 Yen for a non-MG kit... ... ^^;

Those who are still considering whether to get this model can refer to one assembled by Climax F.

That has got to be the most kick-ass weapon in Gundam Double O ^^
And he can hold it up with just one hand. Nice~

Plenty of nice action poses in Nadleeh's form. A display stand will be very helpful for that.

While the articulation for the arm is good even with the armors on, the legs can hardly move, as expected though ^^;

You'll need to paint the yellow parts inside the twin shoulder cannons and GN particle emitters of the legs yourself. No sticker is given for these parts.

Nadleeh's head. The hair still look odd to me after all this while ^^;

The leg's articulation sure improves a lot with the armors off, and gosh! Look at just how thick the leg armors is O_O

The legs armors sure are huge. Can't wait to see that with my own eyes ^^

Also, here's a quick peek into the Battle of Guandu set mentioned yesterday:

Looks good to me, but I still prefer the original BB Senshi version ^^;

Also, five female characters from Gundam Double O will be released as trading figures in June. Apart from Wong Liu Mei, Sumeragi, Felt and Christina, Louisse will be released for the first time ^^

Each figure is 120 mm in height and is priced at 700 Yen.
