Colour Variants for the Powered suits and Dianaughts I'm liking these more and more as we get better pictures. Lovely to see they come with the anti-personnel mounts molded into the arms - it looked like they were missing in the early shots. They do seem to be going the extra mile to make these in a kind of "this is what these were meant to be, and now we can achieve it" kind of way. Really lovely stuff. Karl |

He does seem to rocking a right-torso weapon that I'd not seen on the previous release... I'm never one to argue with more firepower being available.

Is it something off the mech suits?
Head looks a bit different too.

Liking that - big manuever units for flying about in space, nice large cannon over the shoulders... It is a very nice looking Super Robot that.

Lovely figures, but mentally expensive for the size. $190 for a 20cm figure?!

I'm not entirely sure what $190 is in British money at the moment (I stopped looking because I figured it was just getting more depressing every second day) so I'd need to go away and ponder that. It does sound pricey, but on the other hand the Adbot keeps serving me an Amazon Ad for the HGUC Neo Zeong at the bargain price at £301...At 1/144th scale that has currently set my bar for "spits-coffee" prices.
(No likelihood of me buying the Cosmo Maneuver type anytime soon anyway. Four mecha franchises are enough for one collection as far as I am concerned, don't really want to start seriously adding another).

Someone was showing me that the other day. It is unfathomably big. Do it Karl. It is your destiny! |

Karl Thurgood, launching in RX-95 Nemain!" Nah, it's a) a Neo Zeon Mobile Armour Wunderwaffen and I find the various Neo Zeon groups one the most skin-crawling abhorrent things in UC or AU Gundam (and considering that the original Grand Duchy of Zeon may as well have had "Zeon, Zeon, Uber Alles!" as it's national anthem...) and if I was going to start building Gunpla I would start literally anywhere else, (including the MS of "Celestial Being" from 00 before I'd go anywhere near Neo Zeon stuff). b) a terribly silly design - "We made it in memory of the original Zeong so it has arms but doesn't have any legs"...The original Zeong was, in universe, supposed to have legs - it just wasn't finished when they shoved it out in front of the Federation counter-attack because they were losing the war... So it has two strikes against it before the price even comes into the equation... :-) Karl |

Usually the problem with company webstore exclusives. They tend to be somewhat pricey - even assuming that you don't end up having to go through another party to get them, which jacks the price up once again.

Add On In Original Colours at Kapow www.kapowtoys.co.uk/diaclone-dia-battles-da-07-cosmo-battles-02-armour.htmlI hesitated for about 5 mins..... Still can't pull the bullet on the mech suits, they don't look £30 toys. Kapow had one in the sale and I still couldn't do it cos then I wouldn't have had the other! |
