SDnews: NX Edgestyle Gundam Gold Frame Amatsu, July 2016

SDfans! We now have the 3rd Astray on NX Edgestyle!  Gundam Gold Frame Amatsu!

Release date: July 2016

NX Edgestyle Gundam Astray Red Frame!!

SDfans and samurai fanatics! Before the love month ends, we have a review that’s been over due. The NX Edgestyle Gundam Astray Red Frame, or A.K.A the ARF! The ARF is one of the most popular Gundams, and I don’t even need to tell you why.

Details, like always, is great!

Scribed beautifully! Panel lining would be great to add accent.

I’ll let the images do the talking. (wink)

 

Gotta love that katana! especially those tiny details!

One flaw would be that the backside of the scabbard is hollow. But I really don’t mind.

Offcourse! you can sheath it.

NX Edgestyle’s proportions gives more range of motion which in return enables more dynamic poses!

Add the ARF comes with some special effects as well!

Just wow!

With a simple but elegant design, its’ articulation is maximized, giving it a very enjoyable feel when you do poses! and with a wicked samurai at that!! If it was a bit more cheaper, I’d buy another one just to play with it till its joints loosens like hell! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!

Till the next kit,

SD Dude

 

NX Edgestyle OO Gundam & O Raiser!!

SD fans and Gundam 00 fans! Here it is!! The 00 Gundam and 0 Raiser NX Edgestyle set!!

This set is pure beauty!! Gotta love the details!! Here is the 0 Raiser unit!

The 00 Gundam with the GN Sword II!

The GN Sword II lacks color though…

Crossblades anyone??

A close-up look!

Admiring the details.

Pretty nice!

Backview!

The GN Drives moves back and forth!!

Offcourse!! You can attach the GN Shields to the GN Drives, the Raiser at the back and we have the 00 Raiser Gundam!!

The figure suddenly becomes badass!!

This set definitely have a lot of gimmicks!! The GN Sword III, it’s green edge blade…

…which can be folded and converts into Rifle Mode!

Very posable, a definite characteristic of NX Edgestyle figures.

The GN Drives, GN Shield rotates.

A very impressive kit.

Well, what does it mean? Details, there are some parts that lack color but still good. Articulation is also good, the GN Drives limits the arm/shoulder rotation of the figure though. But what is important is that this set packs a lot of gimmicks! But then again, it should be just that for the price that you be paying. Either way, It’s a figure worth having! I mean, I did enjoy playing with it!! 😉

Till the next kit,

NX Edgestyle Wing Zero Custom EW ver!!

SD fans! Specially the wing fanboys and fan girls!! The day has finally arrived!!

Sorry for the pictures though… the wings doesn’t look good in white background. My apologies. I plan to re-shoot if I can.

Anyway, the figure still looks amazing!

Like the previous NX Edgestyle figures, the Wing NX Edgstyle brings the excellent quality of details.

Nice colors!

Detailed panel lines. Well some prefer to ink the panel lines to add accent.

Gotta love that trademark chest!

Gimmicks are kinda limited for the NX Edgestyle, but for the Wing, it’s pretty ok because It really doesn’t have that many to begin with.

The Beam Saber!

The ever popular Twin Buster Rifle!!

Rifle details are good, and a hand part to convert the rifles into the Twin Buster Rifle mode.

The clear Angel type Wings are excellent!!

It doesn’t blend well with my background, but still you can see the details..

As for articulation, the NX Edgestyle has the edge over SD kits because of its proportions.

So its more posable.

Target Locked!

The Verdict!! Like before, all the pros of an NX Edgestyle Figure, the details and articulations are awesome. The cons, one, which is less gimmick doesn’t apply for the Wing, but it is still pricey. So it is still up to you if you gonna get one or not, but if you’re a Wing Fan!! It’s a definite must have for your collection!!

Till the next kit,

NX Edgestyle Strike Freedom and Destiny!!

SD fans! We all know what the NX Edgestyle is! I know you want one, and, even if you don’t, you will want one! What is it with this toyline? What does the NX Edgestyle have that mecha fans, gundam and super robot alike, make their hearts pound?

This is why!!

note: I’m a super robot fan as well, but, I love the gundam franchise which is why most of my collections, yes, are gundams, and its SD! That is why, I only have the MS release of the NX Edgestyle.

The NX Edgestyle is another product manufactured by BANDAI (H.K.), and pretty much like their SDGO toyline (the Zeong the was previously reviewed), it is an action figure, and, it’s in SD!!

A new kind of SD!! Its’ edgy and stylize design is beautiful!!

Very good details!

I really like its proportion, as it gives the figure more articulation while keeping the SD look.

The sad thing is, there are less gimmicks compared to their SD kit counterparts.

The Strike Freedom comes with the “Wing of the Skies” add-on.

Dual heat sabers.

The long range version of its’ rifle.

But its famous pair of “Xiphias 3” rail cannons doesn’t deploy.

For the Destiny Gundam, it has its “Arondight Beam Sword” and “High-Energy Long-Range Beam Cannon” which can be re-attached. But both have less details compared to the kit.

Same goes for its “Flash-Edge 2” boomerangs.

The High-Energy Beam Rifle

Its’ shield

And only a single “Palma Fiocina” Palm Beam Cannon

Sadly, it doesn’t come with the “Wings of Light”.

Both have figure stand/action base.

Overall, the figures have great details and articulations. Visually superb! But minimal mechanical functions with less gimmicks. It’s scale is smaller than the usual SD kit. As for the price, well, it’s a bit expensive.

You’d clearly would want one, but whether to get one, is for your funds to decide. But, hell, NX Edgestyle is really awesome!

Till the next kit,
