"Combat Mecha Xabungle" Xabungle 1/72 Plastic Model

A new kit for the TV anime "Combat Mecha Xabungle" celebrating its 40th anniversary! Take a look at the fully painted brave figure!

Reproduce Xabungle's walker machine form with a total height of 259 mm and 1/72 scale. Assembly is a fully movable kit that does not require adhesive. The completed sample is painted and finished, but the kit has a colorful finish that is close to the image in the play even if it is not painted due to the color coding and decals of the parts.

The wing on the back also comes with parts that are broken and broken. It is also possible to assemble with the armor inside the elbow joints of the upper arms and forearms, the tires and fenders of the forearms removed, and you can select and reproduce each state of the two aircraft that appeared in the play.

Each joint is movable using poly parts, and the body can be moved flexibly with a ball joint! It is non-deformable and pursues good proportions and movable performance.

Both left and right wrists come with 3 types: weapon, fist, and open fingers. Reproduction of the decided pose of the OP with a gun is also like this!

In order to reproduce the dynamic action poses in the play, the elbows are quadruple joints. The hip joint is equipped with a left and right independent swing gimmick.

The knee adopts a double joint to achieve a large range of motion. In addition, the waist armor is a movable gimmick with a ball joint, and can be pulled out slightly to the left and right.

By combining the articulation of various parts such as hip joints, waist armor, knees, etc., it is possible to reproduce the lively action poses that are typical of Xabungle!

Mechanical details and rivets have been added to express the individuality and precision of a somewhat unrefined walker machine.

The tires on the arms, waist, and legs are plastic parts, and the precise tire pattern is expressed by stacking three parts. Details such as the ankle cylinders and the cross-sectional hinges of the folded wing parts on the sides of the legs are also highlights.

In the cockpit, it is possible to board two people from Jiron, Lag, and Elch (parts reproduce only the head and shoulders). Jiron, Rag, and Elchi figures in standing poses of the same scale are also included.

Arms, hip tires and fenders, leg wings, back wings, and back cockpit are removed. It is an image of the draft of "Master File Walker Machine Xabungle". Decals such as detail marks are included. The package illustration is handled by Kazuhiro Kato.
