Pale Knight DII (Titans Style)
Release date: August 2021
Sale price: 2,200 yen
Not a pure color-changing version of the Pale Knight Iron Cavalry! There are some new regulation parts! This must be stated before starting
This Pale Knight DII in the kit is undoubtedly derived from the Pale Knight Iron Cavalry released in April this year, because the shape and armament are almost the same, so many players think that this is just an iron cavalry with a Titans color, but it is not so, after all, it is the Titans color! Must be rushed!
The assessment has officially begun~
PB's consistent monochrome box, the top left corner is the LOGO of the Magazine Serial's Anaheim Experiment Log.
The box is higher than the average HG, after all, there is a cannon ~ ~
It is still a monochrome assembly manual of the net limit.

I board, this plate has new regulations.
J1 board, who would have thought that there would be two new rules on J1 and J2 boards
J2 plates
K1 and K2 plates
PC pieces, lightsaber blade, and 1 1mm glued copper wire.
Stickers, this sticker is not very hellish (relative to the pale series of other bodies), the number is acceptable, and there is no version of the HADES system open state, choose obsessive-compulsive disorder patients this time can take a break ~ In addition, the sticker on the shield surface is different from other parts of the sticker, it is a harder material, feeling similar to the plastic sheet, it should be considered that the sticker is more difficult to paste on the shield surface, and this material is still not easy to wrinkle after tearing and re-pasting many times.
The assembly difficulty is average, and the assembly experience of the traditional federation machine is a bit more than a sticker (after all, the pale series).
Let's take a look at a few closer-ups --
In contrast to the rebellious Pepsi height, the RX-80 series is set to an 18m standard height.
Looking at the head first, the shape cancels the cheek heat dissipation of the basic form of the pale knight, the face is closer to the Gundam, the eye has a sticker, and the transparent part of the eye mask is only blue, which is the same as the previous iron cavalry. The armor on the forehead is one of the few new specification parts this time! The V-shaped antenna on the forehead of the Iron Cavalry was removed, and an integrated arc shape was adopted.
The chest shape is different from the basic form of the pale knight, replacing the heat dissipation ports on both sides of the chest with armor, and increasing the heat dissipation ports at the position of the collarbone. Neither of these positions has a piece, but a sticker is required. The neck part is a PC piece.
The movable range of the head is acceptable, which can cope with the basic movement needs, and the waist part is connected by the PC ball parts, but the movable range is very dispensable.
It's time for a word-hard arm.
The shoulder armor parts of the Pale Knight DII are actually re-planned on the board, although the shape is the same, but if the iron cavalry plate is completely copied, then the basic part of the shoulder armor will be black, and the re-planned part ensures the basic color separation, although there are still many places that need to be colored and stickered and seamless.
I was the first time to do a body with a pale knight basic form, and it was also the first time I encountered such a disgusting elbow joint design, which was different from top to bottom! Perfunctory people also have to have a limit!! Calm down and check, the pale knight basic form is also this design, the arm is exactly the same, I am numb.
The shoulder can be used to use the PC piece to achieve shoulder stretching, but the general body is stretched forward for the two-handed gun, while the Pale Knight series is stretched backwards, and the amplitude is quite large.
The arms are lifted more than 90 degrees.
Although the elbow joint shape is very wordless, it is still qualified for movement.
3 hand types, standard with a pair of pipe pickers + a left gunner.
The shape of the skirt armor is quite complicated, like a lot of armor, but unfortunately the color separation is insufficient, the black and white parts of the front skirt armor are stickers, the black part of the rear skirt armor is stickers, and the rear skirt armor cannot be moved.
The position of the thigh shaft is a movable part, but due to the interference of each part, the movable range is not large.
The leg shape is the more amazing part of this body.
But there were still some confusing operations, and I repeatedly compared it with the Iron Cavalry to confirm that the knee part was a new standard part! The difference is that the heat dissipation port below the knee of the Pale Knight DII is "day" shaped, while the iron cavalry heat dissipation port is the shape of multiple grids, and it is difficult to understand what the new regulations are for in this position...
There are good details behind and on the sides of the calves.
Although I am very satisfied with the leg shape, I still have to say that the forefoot steals glue.
The movement of the whole leg is good, but unfortunately the back skirt armor cannot be moved, which limits the movement of the thighs back.
I will not get the fork display, and the grounding is more practical.
The shape of the backpack looks to be based on the NT-1 backpack as a prototype, two pluggable lightsabers, the backpack thruster is the third new rule position, compared with the iron cavalry, 3 pairs of thrusters became 2 pairs, and also canceled the original fuel tank inserted in the middle, but the fuel tank socket is still there, and there are also complete fuel tank leftovers in the parts, tangled friends can load it.
Now that's the weapons section, let's start with this iconic compound special weapon, the shekinah, which can be connected to the beam energy magazine with the 1mm glued copper wire in the kit.
Display on the other side.
As you can see from below, shergina is a weapon that integrates the Green Gun, beam gun, and rocket magazine, and the full gun body - no! Yes! steal! glue!
The opening and closing of the rocket magazine is achieved by replacing parts.
The connection position with the right hand is a grip and a small arm mortise, a lid, the connection is very stable, and there is a left hand handle on the side that can be unfolded.
The beam energy magazine can be equipped on the right skirt armor, and later it was found that the magazine and shergina were not always connected to the line, and the line could be removed.
To say that I am more dissatisfied with the place, that is, the beam energy magazine is equipped with shegina behind the fuselage, and the right hand will be forced to lift because of the thickness of the parts of the two, and the pose is a bit of action or angle limitation.
The beam rifle is a beam rifle that uses the RX-78-4 and 5, and players who like to cut the card tenon must control the large scissors, because the tenon design of this gun is to directly penetrate another part of the left and right, and the card mortise will form a hole if it is cut.
The shield also follows the style of RX-78-4 and 5, the dark part is a sticker, but unlike other parts of the sticker, it is a harder material, which feels similar to a plastic sheet, which should be considered that the sticker is more difficult to paste on the shield surface, and this material is still not easy to wrinkle after multiple tears and re-pasting. This was also mentioned above when talking about stickers.
There are also good details on the back of the shield. On the right is the shield and arm connector, which is a pale exclusive style, not the same as the RX-78-4 and 5.
There was also a Showa weapon such as the beam spear that I had not expected.
The transparent piece at the tip of the spear resembles the face of some Pokémon.
The abundant leftovers can smoothly form multiple complete parts, and at this time, perhaps only the modified player will be ecstatic
Finally to the POSE photo ~
summary:
This time, the Pale Knight DII inherits many of the design advantages of the Pale Series, especially the cannon Shergena is too top! Of course, it seems that Bandai is not going to do anything to improve the pale series, after all, most of the PB positioning is "just fine with a type". The price of the DII is the same as the Iron Cavalry for 2,200 yen, and there are new rules! Rubber friends who have already started the Iron Cavalry may wish to consider getting it right!
House Jun comments: This is very good, look at the delay and the second booking to start
