كيرينمارو

I’ve always wanted a poseable Kirinmaru, and this model kit delivers with smooth articulation in the legs and tail. The translucent parts really capture its mysterious energy from the show. Assembly took a couple of evenings, but the finished figure looks fantastic on my shelf.

The way this kit captures the mysterious Kirinmaru with all its intricate gimmicks is impressive, and the articulation in the legs lets me pose it just like in the show. Took me about an hour to build, and every joint clicks into place satisfyingly.

The articulation on this kit is pretty solid for a mecha from the 80s, and the gimmicks are fun to fiddle with, but the plastic feels a bit cheap in places and some parts are finicky to snap together. It looks great on the shelf once you’re done, though the build takes longer than I expected.
