Tamashii Items This is Mankind's Last Hope-Released on February 24, "SOUL OF CHOGOKIN GX-77 Gypsy Danger" Product Sample Review
2018-02-19 11: 00 Updated
From the 2013 movie "Pacific Rim" that swirled the whole world into a whirlpool of enthusiasm, the main character "Gypsy Danger" has become a shocking SOUL OF CHOGOKIN! By installing die-cast material and emitting gimmick, we pursued high-end three-dimensionalization of Gypsy Danger. Take a sample of the product and drift to this article to prepare for the KAIJU attack!
※ The image is taken of a prototype. Actual product may differ.
* The "TAMASHII STAGE Act. SOUL OF CHOGOKIN" and various "TAMASHII STAGE" in the article are sold separately.
※ The name and the like in the article are based on subtitle version.
Gypsy Danger, the 3rd generation Jaeger on board Raleigh and Mako, participates in the SOUL OF CHOGOKIN! The unique form and mechanical details of a martial artist have been reproduced to the utmost in 3D. Comes with a pedestal that can be displayed upright. The landmark is the hot stamped package, which is over 40 cm in height.
With a body height of about 230 mm and die-casting of major joints, this item has an outstanding weight and presence. Let's get closer and take a look at the details.
Exquisite colors are reproduced by the molded color in the dark blue part, and clear parts are used for the head visor and the core part of the chest. Marking of the whole body including the chest pinnapping girl is also printed. The contrast between the massive upper body and the back side where the power pipe and the cylinder are exposed is also a point you want to see carefully.
This item is equipped with a light emitting gimmick, and when you set the attached battery from your back and turn on the switch (arrow in the upper left image), the chest, neck and visor will light up. The light on the chest changes from red to yellow to blue, then turns orange and shines for a certain period of time. Watch the video to see this smooth change in light.
※ The included batteries are for testing. Please refer to the instruction manual for replacement and handling.
Among the many movable figures of the soul brand, the weight and texture as if you were holding the "real thing" are the elements unique to the SOUL OF CHOGOKIN. This gypsy danger has a structure that allows you to enjoy a wide range of poses that make use of your long limbs. Let's reproduce various scenes in the play, such as poses where the shoulders and arms are movable and the fists are put together at startup, fighting scenes, kneeling with twisted hips, and so on.
There is no deformation and coalescence gimmick, but not only the appearance is reproduced, but also the chest plate moves when the arm is turned, and the thigh shaft moves when the knee is bent. This delicate gimmick that tickles the heart of Robo is also a point that can be enjoyed only in the SOUL OF CHOGOKIN.
Many people will cite Gipsy Danger VS Leather Bag & Otachi as the best bout of the main story of "Pacific Rim". Gypsy Danger's battle style is condensed in the battle in Hong Kong S.A.R, which defeated the threat of cooperation between KAIJU. Also used in this battle for SOUL OF CHOGOKIN"Plasma Caster" "Chainsaword" "Tanker"And various wrist parts are attached. Let me introduce them one by one.
"Plasma castor" which beat leather bag by continuous fire of angry waves replicated from the elbow to reproduce the deployed state. Set the test battery and pull a part of the elbow part (upper image arrow), the tip part will emit pale white.
A steel hammer reminiscent of a punch launched in a rocket"Elbow rocket"! The armor of the forearm moves independently from the inner frame, and when the elbow part is pushed, the arm extends to the front.
Sword start! For my family! !
The chain sword extended from both arms comes with two sword-like things and two whip-like things expanded in bellows shape. Along with the roar of Mako, one flash that has torn up a horn in high altitude revives!
Even if we evolve KAIJU, Jaeger never yields ... ...!
The tanker attached to the SOUL OF CHOGOKIN is modeled and painted in detail with the aim of creating a figure of "the real tanker itself". And the trace of the finger sunk into the hull. This is the proof that Jaeger, the last bastion of mankind, will not give up victory.
At "Pacific Rim", tanker is a weapon!Let's bite the tanker's spinning attack with SOUL OF CHOGOKIN!
"CHOGOKIN" has a history of more than 40 years, and "SOUL OF CHOGOKIN" has a history of more than 20 years, and hundreds of robot characters that Japan is proud of have been lined up. Inheriting the soul of steel"SOUL OF CHOGOKIN GX-77 Gypsy Danger"In February 2018, a new whirlwind will be brought up!
The original is a 2013 Cinema, but if you've read this far, you should be able to understand that this Jaeger resonates with "adults with a boy's heart".
Next-generation Jaegers are scheduled to be commercialized in the ROBOT SPIRITS series, which can be collected and played more easily, toward the release of "Pacific Rim: Uprising" in Japan in April.
In addition, at the TAMASHII NATION 2017 venue, a prototype of "SOUL OF CHOGOKIN Crimson Typhoon" and panels of Jaegers from each country were exhibited (upper image). Please do not miss the battle between Jaeger and Soul brand.
