Updated 2024-05-22 16:00
The VF-0A Phoenix, piloted by MACROSS ZERO 's protagonist, Kudo Shin, is joining the HI-METAL R series in its final battle spec! We'll be introducing this item with some exclusive photos just before its release!
*The images shown in this article are factory samples and may differ slightly from the actual product.
First, let's take a look at the packaging. It features a powerful illustration by Hidetaka Tenjin, who is well known for the HI-METAL R Macross Series!
The blister has been removed from the package. This is a much larger volume than the HI-METAL R "VF-0" series that has been released so far!
The set contents are as follows. The "VF-0A Phoenix" body is a standard type that is said to have been produced in large quantities, and its characteristic low-visibility body color is reproduced using molding color and paint.
The A-type's distinctive head, equipped with only one laser machine gun, is of course a new design. It faithfully reproduces the shape that differs from the S-type and D-type already on sale.
The highlight of this set is that it is equipped with the newly designed "QF-2200D-B Ghost," "8-barrel general-purpose micro missile launcher," and "medium-range mobile missile pod" all at once!
All of these can be connected to the VF-0A in all three forms: Fighter, Gerwalk, and Battroid, allowing you to freely switch between the standard VF-0A and the fully-equipped Final Battle Version!
The "VF-0A" body is two-tone colored to create a sharp appearance. The "QF-2200D-B Ghost" and all the additional equipment are also marked and color-coded in detail.
Comes with 4 interchangeable wrist parts for each side to suit the Gerwalk and Battroid modes, allowing for a variety of expressive poses reminiscent of the aerial battles in the movie!
A pilot figure of Shin Kudo sits in the single-seat cockpit. Despite its tiny size, the helmet and visor are painted beautifully.
The dedicated pedestal comes in the same color as the already released "HI-METAL R VF-0S PHOENIX(ROY FOCKER use)" and "VF-0D Phoenix (Shin Kudo's)". The markings are original to this product, featuring the pilot and unit name. Joints are included for Fighter, Gerwalk, and Battroid modes, allowing for a sturdy display even in the heavy Final Battle version.
That's all for now!
"HI-METAL R VF-0A PHOENIX(SHIN KUDO USE) ＋ QF-2200D-B GHOST" will be released in stores on Saturday, May 25th!
Be sure to enjoy the massive play value that only the final battle version can provide!
