Glad you loved it. Katoki should really stop screwing the EW designs... sweat.gif

Thanks. Yeah, there's only one beam scythe (or beam scissor if you prefer). rolleyes.gif

There's also the head vulcans like nazrul90 mentioned, and who can forget the self-detonation feature that can also be used as a weapon? Boy, they sure love to do that! laugh.gif

I haven't done that for a long time... thought of doing it last year for HGUC Sinanju, but never got around doing it. tongue.gif

Awesome review.

And yes, the Deathscythe and DHC MGs both have weirdass proportions. Based on your picture, the WZC is much better although its neck is way too short. Katoki's designs often have extremely long legs and tiny torsos - Unicorn and Sinanju suffer the same flaws but they are not as obvious as the two Deathscythes. Good thing that MG Shenlong retains the bulk and has better proportions.

And naming of the weapons? Beam scissors sounds really stupid but misnomers are common in gundam weapons - Gelgoog's beam naginata is a dual edged beam sabre rather than an orthodox polearm that a naginata is. Dom's heat sabre is more of a rod, while Epyon/TGIII's heat rod is actually a whip.

The RX78's hammer is not exactly wrong though. It refers to the hammer used in athletic hammer throw rather than an actual medieval warhammer, but the Gundam's version comes with spikes on the ball like a flail/morning star. Note that the ancient Chinese weapon 流星锤 or meteor hammer is also similiar to the Gundam's hammer, only with two heads. And Chinese war hammers often have round heads rather than the European hammer's flathead.

We have a show-off thread here but no one uses it.

What we need is a toy review thread. It can be both a WIP thread or even a show-off thread but the only criteria it must have is a short review of the shown item. I think it works better that way.

The show off thread only can show off, cannot discuss anything at all.... sad.gif

1) Cloak

Do NOT even attempt to try this. The cloak is not long enough to connect and if you can, you're exerting unnecessary pressure on the red claws and it will break. Trust me. Best to just leave it folded to the front.

Even box art portrait or landscape also takes into consideration. rclxms.gif

BTW, did you forget to collapse the rear joints of the wing before attempting to hook the front?

The fingers on my RG RX-78 was a PITA. 1 of the thumbs dropped onto the floor b4 I put it back into the display shelf. My mum spotted it and put it back into the shelf. I was rushing back here, so didn't realise the finger was off.

Luckily it's back in 1 piece, if not... T_T

Yup, that's possible, although it looks really weird as it extends all the way up to the shoulders. laugh.gif

Yes, WZC totally needs a neck. The shoulder gatling gun hatches can't even open now. doh.gif

As for ShenLong, the design still looks weird to me. I prefer my version better. blush.gif

Very knowledgeable. Thanks for the clarification notworthy.gif

Nope, didn't forget. If you see Dalong's review, he is also experiencing the same problem. He placed the cloak very close to each other without hooking the claws together. It does hook up if you try your best, but i ain't gonna leave that overnight and see it broken in the next morning.
