Action Figure DX Chogokin VF-171EX Armored Nightmare Plus EX (Alto Saotome Machine) Revival Ver.

The DX Chogokin VF-171EX Armored Nightmare Plus EX (Alto Saotome Machine) Revival Ver. is an exciting release from the Macross F series, celebrating its 15th anniversary in 2023. This figure showcases the VF-171EX Armored Nightmare Plus EX, the aircraft that the main character, Alto Saotome, piloted in the latter part of the series. The revival version brings enhanced features and attention to detail to this iconic mecha.

The surface of both the aircraft body and its armored parts has been treated with a matte finish to create a more textured appearance. Markings have been meticulously added to the armored parts to replicate the look from the series. One of the standout features of this figure is its versatility – the armored parts can be attached to all three forms: Battroid, Gawalk, and Fighter. This provides collectors with a range of display options to showcase the VF-171EX's different modes.

The figure comes equipped with a variety of weapons, specifically designed for combating the Vajra. The MDE particle anti-gravity cannon on the right arm armor features a movable joint arm. On the left arm armor, there's a large anti-ship missile. Additionally, the thigh armor has a pull-out gimmick that allows for easy transformation into Gawalk form while still wearing the armored parts. In Fighter mode, the main wings can hold short-range high-mobility anti-aircraft missiles and high-speed armor-piercing rocket medium-range anti-aircraft missiles.

The attention to detail extends to the emblems and markings, with some new markings unique to the revival version. The canopy can be opened and closed, revealing the detailed cockpit inside where Alto's pilot figure can be seated.

The landing gear is stored on the bottom of the fuselage, and it can be extended for ground display. Even with the armored parts attached, the landing gear stored in the leg armor can still be displayed in a grounded position. A dedicated pedestal that supports all three forms and action poses in Battroid form is included, providing various display options to suit your preferences.

In conclusion, the DX Chogokin VF-171EX Armored Nightmare Plus EX (Alto Saotome Machine) Revival Ver. is a highly detailed and versatile figure that pays tribute to the Macross F series and its 15th anniversary. With its impressive features, enhanced texture, and wide range of posing options, it's a must-have for fans of the series and mecha enthusiasts alike.
