Fun Kit

Fun kit! I love all the small extras, and the robot fox tail.

If they are snap together I think kids shouldn't have a problem, what people mostly shy away from in model kit building is the glue, especially the Testors glue we grew up with. CA glue helped things along but tamiya liquid glue is heaven.

I actually think kids will enjoy these if they don't have to paint or glue them.

Meh, I'll wait to see what

Meh, I'll wait to see what some other sets from this line are like before I give a Yea-or-Nay.

The chest is an Evangelion rip-off. ;P

Sort of like Busou Shinki

In that it's "small figure that is supposedly full-scale and is related to an online game where you can swap parts to vary stats"

This one looks less creepy, though.

Definitely looks like a new Xevoz-type figure

I think what could be a major draw with these figures if they do come stateside is if they have better joints than the Xevoz toys. The balljoints on the Xevoz toys often wear out quickly and some were overly tight resulting in snappage. If these toys can take that same concept but without all of the QC issues, they'd be an instant hit, in my opinion.

Has there been any talk of bringing the franchise over here? Or is that speaking in hypothetical terms? It seems like there's a pretty big localization time for anything Level-5 these days, and the franchise only began its kick-off within the last few months.

It's hypothetical. I think it would be a good candidate for stateside release.

Wow, that looks great! I

Wow, that looks great! I mean, I probably wouldn't choose that one, but it looks like a fantastic line. Normally I don't go with the models (after all the Gundam models I bought back in the day; wish I woulda painted at least one) but this is a nice complete toy. Pretty cool! Wonder what else this line has...
