Robot Damashii Superbia GN-X

Robot Spirits, Robot Damashii GNX-612T/AA

Due to some internet connection issues and assignments waves, this review was delayed greatly but nevertheless it is here now

The GN-X line is also further developed into the GNMA-04B11 Trilobite, which is then developed into the Superbia. It is an underwater ninja mobile suit, sadly we do not have the chance to see this suit in action in the 00 series, as this is another OOV suit. Lets get to the review.

The Box, 
surprisingly mine comes with the brown box, as mine is second hand .

Figure Side

Articulations, Head is on a double ball joint.  Some may have problems with the head joint as it is too tight, just add a little hot water and twist it to make it loose and u will have a well articulated head. 

Arm 
Elbow is on a ball joint to torso, the arm has 3 different points of articulation, the elbow is on a swivel joint and wrist is on a ball joint.

The torso has a little articulation, the part below the purple centre is able to bend forward and backwards a little.

Accessories:
2 x GN katars? not sure of the real name
2 x short gn beams
2 x open hands
2 x holding hands
1 x ninja hand
2 x open foot claws










Leg claws can be opened and closed after the parts are swapped and are pretty sturdy.




Overall this figure is fairly articulated and fun to play, sadly I was too excited when I receive it and damaged some of the parts, such as the head and hand some paint was chipped off and some scratches. Everything else is nice and cool, especially the leg claws, I had this displayed hanging upside down from my fan and it stayed that way for a few weeks.
For 4000 yen is this figure worth it? Yes, if you are a GN-X fan i say go for it, also a ninja MS is always welcome into anyone's collection.
Coming up next is again with the GN-X line, the GNX - IV mass production ver.
