It is made with the touch gate technology to allow for easy construction.  The eyes can be closed and opened, allowing you to display it in its enlightened form where the characters on its floating tails will be displayed.  Its sword can also be opened to reveal the characters hidden inside.

 

There we have it for August. It’s a nice selection of model from quite a few series. Needless to say, I’ll be getting the MG Hi-v Gundam Ver. Ka. Its one of my favorite funnel use mobile suits and seeing I have yet to get the original MG Hi-v Gundam, it will be a nice addition to my collection. The original Emperor was my favorite LBX model kit actually so I think the Emperor M3/M5 would be nice addition displayed next to its elder brother! Which model kits do you plan to get this month, new or old? Share your plans below!
