METAL BUILD Freedom Gundam

"Similar to the Metal Build 00 raiser this figure will be18cm tall and be one of the most amazing Gundam toys ever seen.  Certain to sell out quickly." ...  "The birth of the Metal Build series, which began with 00 Gundam Seven Sword in March 2011 was nothing less than a game changer for high-end robot action figures. A year after the initial release, Metal Build will continue with the Freedom Gundam from the Gundam SEED series. Employing diecast, capable of awesome action poses, and exhibiting superior articulation and breathtaking detail; this represents the pinnacle of robot action figure precision and technology and what will have been a year-long endeavor of one of the greatest design teams ever assembled- overseen by Gundam SEED animator Satoshi Shigeta, and fine-tuned by sculptor Yoichi Sakamoto. Figure set will include interchangeable hand parts, shield, beam rifle, special display stand, and special booklet."


Well, certainly this people ain´t lying, but these words are still short to describe the best toy I own. 


I'm not leaving this blog editor without justifying my words, but it's really hard to explain util you have this damn thing in your hands.



It's not a model, it's a fully 1/100 scale assembled gundam, it has an inner skeleton made of meta, it's  packed with a big bunch of accesories and a very convenient flying base.


This toy is VERY poseable, and the best part comes when you move it around and without parts popping off just by breathing over it.


 

Just like in the anime (GREAT anime), there are guns and weapons all over this guy. FULL POWER.


From the feet to the tip of the wingspan, I believe it's something like six playmobiles tall.
