- Shoulder joints can raise upwards.
- 2/3 of the torso blocks can swing backwards in an extent.
- The shoulders can...
- Swivel on a ball-and-socket joint.
- Raise horizontally. (The shoulder armors are jointed to avoid interference with the arm's articulation.)
- The upper arms can rotate.
- Arms and Legs feature double-jointed elbow/knee parts.
- The right regular manipulator can swivel on a ball-and-socket joint.
- The waist can rotate via a ball-and-socket joint, though hindered by the movement pipes.
- Front and side skirt armors are poseable (though slightly) to avoid interference with the leg articulation.
- The hip joint axis can swing forwards (for extra articulation) and backwards.
- The upper thigh joints can swing frontwards (and backwards in a limited extent) on a peg, raise horizontally, and/or rotate on each thigh.
- The ankle joints can tilt frontwards, or sideways in a limited manner.
- Front foot pieces can slightly tilt.
Weapons/Other Gimmicks[]
- Right arm can swap with either Heat Whip arm or MW-01 Manipulator arm.
- The hand is swappable.
- While the right forearm is in Heat Whip arm mode, the weapon can be swapped into attack mode.
- Heat Hawk (storing) can be mounted on both sides of the waist armor, or into the shield.
- Gouf can mount onto most of the Action Bases via an adapter.
Tips & Tricks[]
- For better results, some or most of the details are needed to be painted and panel-lined with Gundam markers and/or Mr. Color paints.
- Topcoat (Mr. Hobby recommended) can be used to protect applied stickers/marking decals and if any, painted details.
