Welcome to the 78 Anime's favorite Zhiyuan Star review session (this "tradition" is yours!). This time, we introduce these two - rx-78-4 Gundam 4 machine >rx-78-5 Gundam 5 from the game "Mobile Suit Gundam Gaiden Universe, The End of the Flash" and its spin-offs. Gundam 4 and 5 were both attached to the Sixteenth Independent Force, an Earth Federation Army special forces led by the Pegasus-class raiding landing ship Pure-BloodEd Horse, and were responsible for preventing the Gion Army from reinforcing Solomon and Abawa from the lunar base, thus engaging in a fierce battle with the Gion Army special forces responsible for guarding the reinforcement route.
Packaging & stickers
The board manual can be viewed by moving to the library
The box is a monochrome style of pb, and the cover painting is a cg drawing of the special weapon used by the No. 4 and No. 5 machines, respectively
The amount of complementary color of the two bodies is very large, and the complementary color patch is not all
The stickers are accompanied by the text of the Thorogung Bred Unit (i.e. pure-blood horses) and very useful logos such as the coat of arms, the number of Gundam 4/5, the Earth Federation Cosmic Army, and the driver's personal logo
ps: Speaking of plates, Gundam No. 5 machine is the first model I have ever seen to lose its real name in the name of the board (laughing to death, just look at the name of the board and don't know who it is)
Subject & detail contrast display
In order to facilitate the comparison for everyone, this time we have adopted the method of simple infiltration line of no. 4 machine and color supplementation of no. 5 machine
Gundam No. 4 and No. 5 are the second batch of RX-78 series, with enhanced thrusters, improved generators, and the use of magnetic gas laminates that have matured on the Ancestor and G-3, increasing the overall power by 40%. Coupled with the body originally developed for space combat, the optical sensor has been replaced by a newly developed next-generation specification, and there are many full-body posture nozzles
However, because No. 4 and No. 5 were already developed for actual combat and no longer needed to collect data, the costly core fighter system was not adopted
The final models of the two aircraft were: RX-78-4/BST and RX-78-5/BST, with the addition of shoulder thrusters and stabilizer wings on the back & small fuel tanks
At the time of development, the tactics of the No. 4 and No. 5 aircraft for coordinated operations were already set, so the special weapons configured by the two aircraft were also complementary
Machine 4 is responsible for a little breakthrough, using a mega beam launcher; machine 5 is responsible for range suppression, using a large Gatling machine gun
The power of the Mega Beam Launcher of The No. 4 machine is very amazing, it can sink the Tiber-class heavy cruiser of Gion with one blow, but because of the incomplete technology, the energy storage and beam collection during sniping take a long time, and the generator that supplies the weapon has a hidden danger of instability; for this reason, when performing the operation, the No. 5 machine is needed to provide assistance and use large Gatling machine guns to clear the threat of trying to approach the No. 4 machine
The pilot of the No. 5 aircraft, Fort Romfilo, although his driving skills were first-class, tested the identity of the pilot, so that he did not recognize the seriousness of the battle, and often made impulsive moves that put the troops into a disadvantage. Whenever this happens, the pilot of The No. 4, the calm and calm Ruth Kassel, will be responsible for suppressing Forte, which can be said not only in the division of labor of the airframe, but also in the personality of the pilot
At different points in the chest, the air intake of the No. 4 machine has only one row, which is because the No. 4 machine is equipped with a larger cooling device in the torso of the fuselage in order to stabilize the mika beam emitter
The shoulders can be removed from the bst equipment and restored to their original form, and the shoulder pylons can be moved to unfold
Advances in technology have allowed weapons to be stored in the forearm, and small beam guns have been hidden in the No. 4 and No. 5 machines
Although the output is not as strong as the beam spray gun, it can also play a winning role at close range
The skirt armor is still very rex-78 series feeling, crotch v and rear skirt armor armor are also strange complementary colors...
Legs, quite beautiful federal legs, spout color is a lot, but after the color is also very beautiful
Equipment at a glance
4, No. 5 special beam rifle, sight (need to make up yellow), side grip can be moved
Shield (follow the pale knight parts so there is no color separation, color patch is also difficult, the best way is to cover the spray color)
Beam Saber × 2, with a circle of white that needs to be colored
There are two kinds of right-hand guns, which use special beam rifles and special equipment
The amount of color in the backpack is still quite large
BST equipment (small fuel tank) can be removed
Movable display
The head is movable
Arms up
The waist is movable
Elbows and knees are bent, thighs are raised flat, and ankles are moved back and forth
Leg lift (movable is good, but it feels easy to loosen?) Can be reinforced in advance when making)
The grounding is good, but what is the ground under the cosmic machine! Flutter to me!
pose
During a battle ambushed by Gion, in order to escape the predicament and annihilate the enemy fleet, Ruth forcibly uses the generator's unstable Mega Beam Launcher, although it eventually breaks the enemy ship, but then the overloaded generator explodes, and Ruth dies heroically (novel and comic book version of the plot)
Ruth's sacrifice contributed to Forte's change of mood, and he became reliable, eventually fighting captain Marlett on the surface of the moon with Captain Gion, who was driving the act Zagu, and finally winning the victory
summary
It has been a year and a half since the release, and everyone basically has a general understanding of how the quality of the model is, so this evaluation is mainly to introduce the original as the main one. The kit itself belongs to the limited sincerity, but the degree of acceptability, the body can be movable color separation is also quite good, the effect of the complete production is still very good (barrel: no. 5 machine seems to be made by me, right?). Friends who like the rx-78 series still can't miss these two models.
ps: Bandai, when is the vegetarian number 7?
House Jun comments: In fact, I like these two machines, they only had mg versions in the early days, and now HG has also produced really good, good things
