Robot Damashii Age-1 Titus

Here it is the Age-1 Titus, not sure which episode it appeared from but it definitely kicked some ass.
One thing I forgot to mention in the previous review is that each AGE is specialized in some area. The Age-1 normal is an all rounder the basic mobile suit functionality, whereas this Titus is specialized in close combat melee. Armed with many many beams around the arms and knee this guy packs a punch and is fun to play with. Lets get on with the review.

In conparison with the AGE-1 Normal
The Titus torso is slightly thicker than the normal as you can see above, the arms and legs are swappable 






Note the thruster effect parts will NOT fit on the Torso of the Titus

It would seem i forgot to take picture of the parts, it is what you see above.

Overall The age-1 titus is a great figure, i enjoyed playing with it more than the age-1 normal. Articulations are not as great but that is due to the bulkiness of the titus's design. Changing hands is still a pain but the titus works well with close fists hence it doesnt really effect much. The beams are slightly troublesome to put into place especially the shoulder ones and this beams can be quite pokey. The connector or the pegs for each libs are slightly lose now due to over play haha.

I got this figure for full price at that time which was 45 AUD ouch, and I see it going online for less than 2500 yen which is 30 ish dollars. Is it worth it? Yes it is with that many playability and price it is worth adding into your collection.

One thing about the gundam series is that things seems to always come in 3. Example 3 Strike Pack, 3 impulse pack, 3 DOM attack, 3 generation for the age series, 3 different suits for each Celestial Being (season 1, 2 and the movie). So this would be the 2nd AGE and the 3rd will be the Age-1 Spallow which I sadly do not have with me now. It will be up here eventually. So coming next would be the bad guy Gafran.
